Hurrah Wednesday is nearly over! And has gone surprisingly well (never could get the hang of them ;p) - well, in the sense that I found myself at lunchtime wandering past Forbidden Planet with cash in my wallet and nothing pressing to spend it on, so I now have vols. 2 & 3 of the Lucifer series and vols 2 & 3 of Preacher for Great Reading Justice.

I am hoping to save them for the weekend, but I may well crack before then. I had planned to read the Sandman bits with Lucifer in as a prelude, then thought of perhaps just reading the whole Sandman from the start. Then remembered SOMEONE still has my first Sandman volume *eyes [livejournal.com profile] _unhurt_*
also, remind me to give you back your Hellboys at some point ;p

Other than that, no news. Am greatly enjoying this whole having-entire-evenings-free lark that comes with the tempory lack of horse, but I'm sure the novelty will wear off soon. In a month or so...

I don't think I've heard of Lucifer. Tell me more.

It follows on from the Lucifer who appears in Sandman, tho it's not written by Gaimen - wikipedia here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucifer_(DC_Comics)) tho it has spoilers so I haven't read past the intro part ;)

The whole series you can find on Amazon here! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucifer_(DC_Comics)) *pimps*

I've only read the first one so far, but it was a very good start and I've heard great things about it!

The Lucifer series is fab. I borrowed the series from Tyrell and devoured it all very, very quickly. Which did weird things to my brain. So graphic novels are only allowed to be read in moderation from now on. I am still working through Sandman and Preacher. I had no idea graphic novels were so great. But as I said, they do weird things to my brain!!

I think it's because they come with pictures, so it all sinks into your branes very vividly!

I have to ration myself too, normally I only buy series one at a time with a gap inbetween, but i got a bit carried away yesterday at the rare combination of me with money + forbidden planet with issues I want.

I was a big comic fan when younger, but then didn't read any for years, have just recently started getting back into them and it's great ;) Especially Sandman!

I like Preacher, I've read the first few books a few years ago, but still have to get hold of the rest at some point...
