For a while, I've been thinking about doing a regular-ish graphic novel rec. Like, maye one graphic novel a week. A couple of people have expressed interest in such; let me further test the waters with a poll (hey, my first poll! \o/) (no idea if that poll will make it through the crossposter... let's find out...)
I can think of many highly reccable works in English, but a lot of really great stuff has never been translated, unfortunately. Don't answer that second question unless you're interested in the recs... this isn't to evaluate the flist's mad foreign language skillz ;). It just wouldn't make much sense to type up a rec for something that only one or two people would be able to read.
can I just interrupt the regular programming to share an apparently really unpopular fannish opinion?
Okay, here goes *clears throat`*
I love SGA!
I know, I'm a bit of a rebel. Bwahahaaahg :P
The fic is amazing and every bit as good as everybody promised, but I don't just love the fic, I love the canon too... fell madly in love with the show during the first ep I watched and I still love it. I think it's a fun show, some obvious flaws notwithstanding. It's incredibly inspiring for me as an artist; it has inspired the best fic I've ever read in any fandom; the characters have taken on a life of their own in my head. I like season five, a lot. I love my crazy space show. And if there's no movie, I'm gonna be incredibly disappointed because there are so many stories yet untold.
I'm not the least bit interested in arguing any of this. If anyone comes into my LJ right now to explain to me how the show sucks or how they hope there'll be no movie, I will most likely kick them out. (However, if you've drunk the crazy water too and love our crazy space show, come in, grab a seat.)
