    I love Fables although i haven’t read anything past issue 50.

    Superman: Red Son is excellent. Definitely one of Mark Millar’s best work. If you like Mark Millar, may i suggest trying Marvel’s Civil War? It’s one of the most raved about event last year. The TPB for this is out everywhere.

    You may also want to try Pride of Baghdad by Brian K. Vaughn. It’s a quick read about lions in Iraq during the war. The art is beautiful.

    There’s a new Fully Booked in Bonifacio High Street. The place is 4-storeys! Their graphic novels are priced pretty good. Conversion is around P45:$1

    Hey Ryan,

    I’ve been looking for Pride of Baghdad for a while now. Too bad the graphic novels section of my most conveniently close Fully book (which is Greenhills) sucks. If it’s anything like Grant Morrison’s WE3 then I’ll be happy.

    Oh and it’s good to see you posting comments on my blog! ^_^
