Fantastic Comic for a change. Must Read.

I keep buying books and now I am collecting them. There will be a time when all these books will end up as orphans and no one will care for them. Ah screw that thought. I can't stop now. A man needs a hobby, needs a collection. I can't collect what Bill Gates collects, at least I can collect comics. Correction comics with a flair, and this one is one of those precious few. The book is actually two in one. The first part by Dupuy and the second part by Berberian, their struggle to get this book out, amidst the struggle of day to day life. Comic book writing is not easy, if you want to earn a reputation to keep writing more. People are very choosy when it comes to this method of expression. Although it may be just a couple of nerds that are driving this industry it is a very competitive niche. Its really a change from the ordinary themes. A comic book about the making of a comic book. That and a sort of parallel memoir of Philippe Dupuy and Charles Berberian in their own struggle to write this book. I loved it.
