Random Thoughts on Comic Books

So here I am writing a blog post after a long time. So let's just go over the details of what I've been doing all this time. I have gotten into reading comic books now, especially superhero comics. Batman, Superman, Green Lantern etc. mainly DC comics for now, but I plan to read Marvel comics too in the near future. Form all the comic book superheroes, Batman is my favorite. He has always been. At first i thought that its because I loved the movie 'The Dark Knight', but now after reading some of the best Bat-titles I think he's the most interesting superhero of all.

Grant Morrison and Scott Snyder are my favorite comic book writers. I've read Grant Morrison's All-Star Superman, which is a classic tale about the principles and the basic fundamentals of the Superman. I am also following Grant Morrison's work in 'Action Comics' which has been rebooted this month.

And Scott Snyder's work on 'Detective Comics' is just phenomenal. It is a very dark take on Gotham City and it presents Dick Grayson, former Robin, taking up the mantle of Batman from Bruce Wayne. He's also worked on 'American Vampire' which I plan to read. He's now writing for newly relaunched 'Batman' comics.

So that's it for now...will write more about comic books in the next post.

P.S.-check out Superman's new 21st century look in rebooted 'Action Comics' #1.

Writing continues.....

Yesterday I have finished reading the book angles & demons. It is a vey good book and though i do not read novels much, this book has kept me page turning. Although it's a bit long book compared to its sequel da vinci code. And now i have started reading Harry Potter 2 for the second time.
I want to read this series upto 6 books and then i will decide whether to watch seventh film first or to read seventh book first.....
Good Bye......

'Writing Something' after a long time

This is the second day after i have got the net connection. On one side i am very happy but on the other i am troubled by very slow speed of my net connection. the irony is that the song which i have just downloaded at very slow speed is titled 'Touble is a friend of mine'. Indeed, it is very much true for me. But lets talk about the brighter side. I have downloaded some songs which i wanted for years and now i can listen to them on my xpressmusic mobile anytime i want.At this time, while i am writing, i am downloading the song 'Imagine' by john Lennon.
And some other news. Now i am reading the book 'Angles & Demons' by Dan Brown.
It is a big book having 713 pages. i have got almost 50 pages left to resd. I hope that i can read them today and complete the book. After that i am planning to watch the movie based on it.
I hope i can write the next post as soon as possible......
