Wow, impressive year ahead of you, Ethan. Thanks for getting the NBNY stories on your docket - I look forward to learning your thoughts. I do hope you'll get to reading all the other stories alongside those though!
As an aside, you and Jeff did meet and talk--he had to change his story for me after learning of your story for Samhain Sorceries :)
I did finish them all and enjoyed them very much! I was really happy to back it and liked seeing all the different takes on the genre that are being done.
That must have slipped my mind! In that case I'm excited to hopefully see you and him again this Howard Days!
The three Slaine graphic novels collected together as The Brutania Chronicles are amazing. The art is head and shoulders above the rest of the series and it feels like there's an attempt to disregard some of the more convoluted bits of the story that have emerged by that point in order to make it more accessible to new readers.
Thanks for the recommendation! As I said, this will be my first foray into the series so it's helpful to hear from people who have already read it. And as far as the nature of comic books, I understand following certain timelines or "canons" can get convoluted and labyrinthine especially if one were to start from the very first issues (even outside of Marvel and DC publications). I might grab them all along with the definitive edition as a bundle so I could even prolong my reviews on it.

Four, not three. My bad.
