Graphic Novel Reading Group discussion

Interesting. I really like the variety of titles we're reading for these.

I'm in for this one.

After all we can all read an issue of comic book in under 10 minutes. So why not and see how we like it. Believe it or not, I hope we even get something totally different like a SpongeBob or Sonic the Hedgehog to add to the variety."

Love the approach. Totally agree that the variety makes things more interesting, and I too think the more genres the better. Everything I've tried so far has had at least some positives, so it's definitely working out for me. :)

Sounds awesome. :)

Read issue #4:Classic, over-the-top comic goodness. Wordy by today's superhero standards but I knew to expect that from Ostrander and had no problem with it. Important background is explained well enough that I had no trouble getting into the story and picking up the important stuff despite having no familiarity with the characters. Big "tune in next week" style cliffhanger to finish.

Ready for #5.

Read issue #5: More fun, older style comic book action. I like the issues Ostrander's bringing up with the mindswapped heroes. Nice differing viewpoints and personalities too. Looking forward to the reveal of the cliffhanger we end on and next issue's conclusion of this story arc.

Ready for #6.

Read issue #6: Decent conclusion to the three issue arc. The cliffhanger reveal from last issue fell flat as I'm not very familiar with the character, but the proper context was provided so I had enough to follow along with. Nice insight into our main characters throughout the arc and this climactic battle did a good job adding to the story and establishing the stakes while keeping the action content high.

Ready for #7.

Hi Kenny,

I received issue #27 of Hawkman. How does that issue fit into this current reading. Did you send me the wrong one? I would like to start from number 4 if I could.

Eric ..." Hey Kenny. Will I still be able to receive the 90's Hawkman? series

Hi Kenny, I got Hawkman #27 from the free comic book read list and I'm hooked! Please sign me up for the Buddy Reads. I will send an email as requested. Thanks so much.

I don't care much for this Katar Hol as his other incarnations but it was a solid storyline to start. This incarnation is the one closest to the updated 52 version though so I guess someone liked the incarnation. I do miss Shayera and the relation that the two of them have. I am hoping to see that relationship come back soon to the 52 incarnation soon. Great story send me the next soon.
