I know my image to you all is of a slightly disreputable older uncle, cool and rockish, devilishly balding and slightly handsome at the front and all of that, but I am not actually that cool.
And if who ever that is that is laughing hysterically could just step outside for a minute I will continue!

Ahem.
Now yesterday on a friends blog I mentioned that I like watching Manga films. The amount of "Really! I never had you down as a manga fan" reaction was quite unexpected. Yeah, I have some films..It's not a problem - I can handle it.
But also, when I was younger - sort of early teens, I was really into Marvel and DC comics. Used to have piles of them, Spider man, Silver Surfer, fantastic four, X-men (before they dumped the old costumes) Conan (Barry Smith was the best artist!) superman even and of course some Bat Man. Oh and Captain America.
No problem. Grew out of it all I did.
OK, I still have a weakness for Graphic Novels but its under control. Watchmen, Give me liberty or give me death (I think its called), The Knightfall/knightsend trilogy, There is a sandman one somewhere around. Batman - year one, Actually there are quite a lot of Batman ones.
Hmmmmmmmmm. Maybe I should see someone about this after all.
