Even though it’s Top Ten Friday, I had to write and share this cool link for Vertigo comics. Sure, it’s a tactic to get new readers, but hey it’s free, what’s better? Vertigo has posted a page with some of their most acclaimed graphic novels and the first volumes are downloadable and completely and utterly free. I give Vertigo a big thumbs up for this. Here you can read everything from classic Swamp Thing to American Virgin and Fables. Anyone who’s been wanting to try a first issue, or series, but scared to shell out the expense will find this site invaluable. vertigo.jpg http://www.dccomics.com/sites/vertigo_num1s/

About Comic Book Journal

Where do capes and cowls end and horror and noir begin? What's more important: the four-color panels, or the letter balloons within them? Did comics really begin in cave walls, or just in the Sunday morning cartoons? What the heck is a graphic novel? These questions and more are answered in the Comic Book Journal, the place between the page and the panel, the motion line and the sound byte, the superhero and the every(wo)man.
