TPB A DAY 013: Billy Bat - YAY!

YAY! It’s funny - I’ve loved everything I have ever read by Naoki Urasawa, which should have made this book a no-brainer - BUT - I was hesitant to pick it up. I don’t know if it was because it had a co-writer (Takashi Nagasaki), the bat thingy, or simply because it didn’t look like my kind of thing.

But, of course - I’m an idiot - and really enjoyed this book! I’m definitely looking forward to reading more of the series and suggest you check it out!


DORK PLAN: I’m going to read one TPB a day from my 5,000+ strong TPB collection. I’ll post the one I read here the next day with a YAY or NAY, and maybe a line or two about what I thought. NOTE: Got a TPB you want me to read? Drop it in the comments! If I have it, I’ll give it a review.

Flash Gordon Posters

Richard Amsel - painted the famous U.S. theatrical one-sheet, the iconic image with Flash in the foreground, Ming looming behind him, and the Hawkmen.
Lawrence Noble - created the U.S. advance poster.
Renato Casaro - created several European/foreign-release designs, including Italian posters.
