Some of you might of seen the adverts for the Graphic Novel Collection which is found here:
http://www.graphicnovelcollection.com/
I have never been a comic reader but after watching all the latest Marvel films I decided I wanted to know a little bit more about our favourite superheros and their background, but after a quick search I was overwhelmed by information and had no idea where to start.
Low and behold this part series has started and advertises itself as the best handpicked stories in the Marvel catalogue.
So first of all are there any enthuisiats on this subject and what are your thoughts on this collection? and do you think it is a good starting point for someone new in this field? or does anyone currently collect this series?
I have started the subscription and am eagerly awaiting my first issue (Issue list below) I will write a summary of what I thought about it and see if anyone is interested!
