Now she's on a journey, a journey which takes her through urban and rural England along the same path that another Potter, Beatrix Potter, once took.

The victim of child sexual abuse, Helen Potter becomes the armored knight before her own personal demons. It's a story of heroism and courage, and of defeating the greatest enemy-the one which lives within. Helen Potter lived a happy life until she got lost in a nightmare of sexual abuse. Now she's traveling through urban and rural England on a journey that is remarkably similar to the one Beatrix Potter once took. Bryan Talbot's inspirational story of young Helen Potter and her journey of healing won numerous awards and unending acclaim for the British writer/artist. [+]even letters of commendation from Judy Taylor, the chair of the Beatrix Potter Society. This book is yet another example of a touching story that transcends the misperceptions that comics are disposable, juvenile pap.

Review Power of Comics: An Introduction to Graphic Storytelling / Continuum:"The Power of Comics" is the first textbook to introduce undergraduate students to a broader understanding of the medium and its communication potential. Similar to film appreciation courses of the past, this text is intended for a comics appreciation course offered at most colleges and universities, but could easily be adapted to many different approaches to comics studies. It was through the survey or appreciation course that film became established as a legitimate field of study in American higher education. Yet, comics courses seldom take a general appreciation approach because there is no textbook for such a course. Courses that do attempt a broad approach to the comics medium have to draw material from so many different books, articles and comics that they are cost prohibitive. This text would fill that obvious gap in the market for instructors interested in a text that presents a more comprehensive view of the medium than anything currently on the market. "The Power of Comics" deals only with comic books and graphic novels. One reason for this focus is that no one text can hope to do justice to both strips and books; there is simply too much to cover. Preference is given to comic books because in their longer form, the graphic novel, they have the greatest potential for depth and complexity of expression. As comic strips shrink in size and become more inane in content, comic books are becoming a serious art form.

Review Bride of Deimos, Vol. 1 / ComicsOne:Bride of Deimos Vol. 1: Long ago, a brother and sister, lived happily on Mount Olympus until they fell in love. The gods were so angry about their forbidden love that they exiled them from the mountain, turned the brother into a demon, and imprisoned the sister in the deep ocean. As her body rotted under the waves, she asked her demon brother to find a girl that looked like her so that she could possess a new body. In the modern world, the demon finally finds the correct match: a high school girl who looks exactly like his beloved sister. Instead of offering her up for possession, however, the demon falls in love with her. Jealous, his sister sends Death and Onis (two Japanese ghosts) to take the girl's life! This popular manga series was the basis for an anime film directed by Rintaro, who recently won international acclaim for his direction of Metropolis.
