How about a nice cheery story time for this Tuesday Morning.
The most precise work from two men known for their attention to detail in the form of comics.
Come Along
>>
How is your week shaping up?
>>
Man are you really going to storytime this whole thing? IIRC it's something like 800 pages long.
I have a physical copy of this sitting up on my shelf. Got a nice deal on it from a closing Borders book store. I'm not much one for books and comics these days, but it turned out to be the 2nd best work of fiction I've ever read. The first being John Gardner's novel "Grendel." Both are utterly bleak and fantastic.

Its only like 550 which is barely more than 2 threads.
>>
Got a copy of Jerusalem...and I have no idea where to begin with it.
>>
Recently will have seen this motif in the more recent issues of Providence
>>
I put off reading this book for the longest time because I had heard the most broad terms of what it was only.
>>
>>85078916
I thought that it was about demons for the longest time
>>
The first person stuff in this book works so amazingly well
>>
Campbell's work on this book shows so well why he is the perfect collaborator for Moore the precision and the line is so exact at times and so raw at others.
>>
Geography and History whipped up into the most fascinating and engrossing yarn of them all.
Even if I don't necessarily believe all of this chapter I want to believe it all in how it is told.
>>
>>85078916
I was unlucky and tried to read it when I was quite young and was bored-stupid by it because all I wanted in comics was capes and jedis. Took a few years and a lot of growing up before I came upon it again and now it's still the best comic I've ever read.

Unf, the silhouettes are fucking great
>>
This chapter is mindblowing, actually this whole book is. Couldn't put it down.
>>
This story doesn't get good until the stupid tour is over.
>>
>>85079393
The tour is where it all begins though and is important to the grand design
>>
>>85079393
>the stupid tour
Do you even magic?
>>
That is the easiest way to describe what this book is really about, systems and structures of power.
>>
Weird, in my memory, all the pages are coloured red.
Or is that later?
>>
>>85079431
>But not yours.
GOAT pair of panels.
>>85079455
I've never heard of a version of this printed in red ink, but it would look amazing.

Hi Adolf!

As someone who lives in London, you'll be happy to know that Whitechapel is STILL a shithole, and the only reason anyone goes there is for Jack the Ripper tours
>>
>>85079491
Actually it's pretty hard on the eyes. You've just got black lines on red paper.
But like said, I might be confusing it with something else.
>>
What is the fourth dimension?
>>
>>85079788
The Twilight Zone
>>
Moore, I am disappoint. Not nearly enough tits, ass and fucked up sex scenes. Especially for a story about a serial killer of whores. Step up your game, man!
>>

>>85080273
Oh, fuck, why?! That is so not what I meant! Curses! I got a scene, and yet it wasn't what I wanted! My eyes...!
