Review Strangers in Paradise Volume One
Now those of you who do read this know that I am a comic book fan. Just because I don't have a wall of comics anymore, doesn't mean that my love for this medium has lessened. I just don't have the income or the space for this anymore. So since I actually have some time on my hands, I've put the Wolfwalker series on hold, and have gone back to an old, but not forgotten love.
First is Terry Moore's Strangers in Paradise (that's the official website). Now any comic book fan out there has at least heard of this series. In it's simplest definition, it's about three friends. Francine, Katchoo and David, three ordinary people with haunted pasts, love filled hearts and simply trying to live in happiness. This is hands down one of the best comic books out in the market today. It's about love, loss, sacrifice and overcoming and accepting life in general. This particular book collects the now almost impossible to find three issue mini series, and introduces you into what can simply be called an amazing and wonderful story. If you want to read something that fills the heart with joy and sadness, you really need to give this book a shot. Trust me, you won't forgive yourself if you don't, because this book is just the doorway, the second book in the series I Dream of You begins the real journey. A journey that is as captivating on the 10th plus read as it was on the first read.
