Welcome to Litsy!

Mr. Chance acts as a decoy target for the wealthy. While standing in for Lex Luthor, he is poisoned. With only 12 days to live, he must solve his own murder. This story is well written as an adult thriller, with astounding color schemes (so evocative of the ‘60‘s mod movement). The only downside is that this is part one of a two-part story. So far, I‘m hooked and can‘t wait to read the rest!

Amazing. A look at the current state of rebellion under the Islamic regime of Iran, following the cruel murder of a young woman by morality police because her headscarf wasn‘t worn perfectly.

The first part of the two-part Dark Moon Rising series, which are expanded and modernized versions of early Batman.

Batman has his first encounter with Hugo Strange, who is doing weird genetic experiments that end up going wrong, and he ends up with giant, brain-dead cannibals that he uses to kill the gangsters he‘s borrowed money from to get them off his back.

I think it's a good story but the finished book is very poor.

I was disappointed.

19/100 Green Arrow has always been one of my favorite superheroes, much more interesting than Marvel's Hawkeye. Green Arrow's origin story was pretty much the same, but updated and streamline. Queen was still the reckless, alcoholic playboy, he still ended up on the desert island with the drug runners, it's just more gritty and violent than earlier versions of his origin. 3.75/5

Enjoy!

My reading has taken a back seat since Christmas. Extended the kitchen and now have a spare dining room which I‘ve been decorating when not working. This will now be a reading room so it‘s all gonna work out good in the end. I picked up this, weird but interesting GN…a quick read, just so my account didn‘t look dead. Although I did try and catch up on reviews once in a while. Oh, I also joined a gym. My arms are so huge now I can barely turn pages

I've read a couple Criminal stories here and there, but this will be my first proper read through, in anticipation of the upcoming TV series. Leo has a reputation of being an expert thief, but the first to hit the bricks at a sign of trouble. When someone from his past reemerges, he takes a job he knows he shouldn't, and, predictably, it doesn't go well, but modern master Brubaker keeps things interesting.

Charlie and Nick are out at school, and the next steps are deciding when to come out to Nick‘s dad and how to have the courage to say I love you. But this installment also deals with Charlie getting help for some significant mental health issues while Nick learns how to best support him. It is wonderful how Oseman shows teens navigating this with sensitivity and care. And also how the boys‘ friends and families are crucial in the process.

The promising title got me to pick this book without a second thought and it started out great. What seemed like a fun and quirky book turned out to be repetitive, boring and disappointing though. The illustrations are good and the comic style of writing was great but the content itself seemed nothing new. It‘s all the things that readers and writers do and I found myself skimming through it.
