Do You Need A License For A Canoe In Mt?

The Veil and The Forest of Suicides, late or early ... Today is Sant Jordi

When someone you know an author recommends you very much should be about something, and in 90% of cases are right , the other 10% is because of "pagustoscolores" and we went into factors that I am unable to achieve. To which we, Abel García Pater and recommended me for a while Veil and if I'm honest it did not have much idea what it was or who was the author or (That goes for calling you an expert in comics when the only thing is that I am an expert on pizza), so I took note and YaST. Yasta until last Comic Barcelona when I had the opportunity to attend the signature megasession Fnac.

While giving a tour of the shopping center a few times ojeé Veil and two Forest of the Suicide Pater until I remembered that I had recommended. Then I saw that the authors (El Torres and Gabriel Hernandez) signed that afternoon. So as not wearing much spent in the classroom, I thought I could catch the two copies since at least visually were very good looking and if I happened to take left over d time for me to sign them. So I bought the last minute I went through the queue, I was in the past so I was lucky and met the author and I even signed a copy, drawing included. Two guys many nice people the truth be told, although I had some trouble when he asked Torres "Have you read?" Ofu ... I could not lie so I told the truth "No, Pater (who apparently knew him) recommended it to me so why buy them." I know that is something ugly ask you to sign something that you have not read but good, had a hunch I would like it. And I hit two of the best graphic novels I've read in a long time, you could call them but there are so many shit comics today that are called graphic novel that I'm going to afford to name them as well, I can not give more category also deserve it.

But here is what counts! Veil tells the story of Chris Moon, a private investigator who has the gift of speaking with the dead and they can tell who's been murdered (if applicable, of course). So much better, until he receives a letter from his hometown because he has inherited the house of an aunt who died for months. Overwhelmed by debt decides to return to town to sell the house and finds out that something ... goes wrong. Something evil and related to their past and their "gift" awaits the entire town, which is about to occur and Luna can not decipher what. Well, with this we have one of the best horror stories I've read in a long time. The atmosphere created by authors, although reminiscent of the style of Japanese ghost stories, it still continually overwhelm and that's good because it means you have been stuck inside the body. The script not only ready to catch you by surprise at the right time but the accompanying drawing so that you can even hear the scary music playing stronger in the right moment as if it were a movie projected on a movie theater . It is a cruel story of horror rather than terror and where there is a hair cut. In short, if you will this kind is essential to your bookshelf.

But as the Forest of the Suicide , it is not as good as before, that is, the better. I liked it so much I read it twice this Saturday, I ended up in the wee hours of the morning, curled up on my couch and superemocionado closed the lid, opened it and what I read. This time The Torres and Gabriel Hernández us tell the story of Aokigahara, a forest where people gather to commit suicide . It works Ryoko, a young forester who is collecting the bodies of those people. But there's more, once the records, ensures that his spirit goes to the other side without causing any damage. In turn, Alan, a "gaijin" leaves his girlfriend without knowing that it will lead to a future meeting with the young guard. And that's where I can read. I will not talk about how good the script or the graphic quality of the work on technical aspects. Why? I'll simplify by saying that I wish they would pass a movie because milk. It is a great comic, a graphic novel worthy of your shelf.

may not today, maybe tomorrow or maybe past but sooner or later you will become a autoregalo or someone you want to give a "comic book", well, Veil and Forest of the Suicide should be the top of the list , you are advised, ea.
