So I spent all week trying to finesse this drabble for [community profile] tw100's friends and enemies.  Never did get it to work right and now that challenge is over.  *sigh* I hate it when writing's like that.

So, my flist has been quiet lately.  How are all of you?

I haven't read Hellblazer in ages. Comics just got too expensive to buy and the libraries stopped carrying them. What other ones did you get?

10" of snow? I guess we're lucky here then, it's been snowing lightly all morning, but nothings really sticking because the ground is too warm.

and *hugs*

I actually read most of Grant Morrison's The Invisibles through interlibrary loan. But yeah, I buy a lot of graphic novels - another reason I am so very much Amazon's bitch.

I don't know how familiar you are with Matt Wagner's Grendel comics, but I got the Silverback 3 issue miniseries with Argent's backstory. I'm a little weird about Grendel - I almost love the mythology more than the actual stories as they're written - but these were $10 and in beautiful condition, so I figured why not?

I ♥ graphic novels, especially if you can get them used (or, even better, if you library has them). I loved Hellblazer's cancer story, but the comics themselves were so damned expensive, but picked up the graphic novel version for $5.

I'm only vaguely familiar with Grendel, my husband read it for awhile, but I only skimmed it. Sounds like you got a great deal on it though!
