Marvel 1602

Word. It was by no means a bad comics, and coming from any other creator would have been amazing. From Gaiman however, I have come to expect absoloute perfection, so it was just good. It was bomb what he did with Spider Man though.

Oy vey, Inu Yasha must be more massive then orderin enclyopedias I'd bet.  I feel the burning...burningness to purchase comics.  It is like a siren song of inks and rectangles.

My black heart had a pang of hurt there.  Also if there was a contest for appearing in my signature I'm sure you'd have won by now.

Digs:
Let us compare. Seven point five bucks per book, twenty books so far. I have five already. Once I purchase as many as I can, I'll have spent over $150 on a single series without actually finishing it. I think they're to the bit where Koga comes in and is a jerk.

Encyclopedia Britannica is doing a sale right now, so the print set is at $995.00. The normal price is about 1.3k. By buying a pile of Inu Yasha manga, I am forsaking the chance to own 11.538-15.075% of a set of encyclopedias. Argh.

More fun math with Rumiko Takahashi, the Inu Yasha DVDs have three shows  apiece, and are MSRP approximately $30. The series ran for a mighty six seasons and a whopping one-hundred and sixty-seven episodes. To purchase Every Single Episode you are expected to shell out fully $1600, more in fact. I am kind of shooting from the belt mathematically, but it sounds about right. I'm just gonna have to pass on that one, miss Rumi'. I like you and all, but...really.

my comic snob friends say 1602 sucked.

i hear otherwise from a bunch of people but i tend to trust these guys.

i like gaimain, but the art in those books looks awful and i'm told the story's a joke.  like gaiman really wanted a new toaster so he pumped it out.

happybirthdaygelatin:
I like the concept of it quite a bit.  I don't remember who does the art or how frequently the artist changes either.  I'd check it out though still.  If I could afford to.

Hmm, that is a massive series, tewnty books and not near finished.  At least it isn't a series by Akira Toriyama.  The only condolence I can offer is at least you will have better luck finding the Britannica at the library.  Oh no though, is it as alot of libraries with a no check out on refrence materials?

I have not been able to get into Inu Yasha but that is more problems with my schedule and when I do manage to watch it the episodes I see are in completly different parts.
