There’s a lot of variety to be found in this week’s choices (even within the Gaiman works themselves), and yet, this is probably the most varied of all the books, a really interesting and engaging cross-section of ideas, themes, and interests - all done with absolutely beautiful comics art.īuy It Here: Neil Gaiman’s Likely StoriesĪrtists: Mike Mignola, Jerry Ordway, David Rubin, Jill Thompson, and more

Why It’s Cool: This collection is essentially a comics adaptation of Gaiman’s short stories, brought to life by celebrated artist Mark Buckingham.


You wont want to miss this collection featuring comic adaptations of the short stories: Looking for the Girl, Foreign Parts, Closing Time, and Feeders and Eaters from the Hugo, Eisner, Newbery, Harvey, Bram Stoker, Locus, World Fantasy, and Nebula award-winning author Neil Gaiman! Comixology, without any announcements or teasers, has quietly gone and made every issue of Black Panther in its library free for all users.These dark and imaginative tales feature an odd and subtly linked world of bizarre venereal diseases, a creepy old woman who feasts on raw meat, a man obsessed with a skin model from a magazine, and a story within a story about ghosts. While Boseman might not have been involved with the development and production of the Black Panther comic books upon which his film is based, reading through the adventures and heroics of what was ostensibly his character just feels right. With the untimely and unfortunate loss of an actor who meant so much to so many people, reading up on the character he was best known feels like a suitable way to remember the actor. Sure, he actually earned his first live-action role in Captain America: Civil War but two years after that mish-mash of superhero fighting Black Panther brought the comic book hero to the eyes of audiences who were already so intrigued by what they’d seen fighting alongside Tony Stark.īlack Panther’s success was, in no small part, due to Chadwick Boseman who captured the stoic, regal tone of the character while also bringing a recognisable honesty and heart to the role. Black Panther, one of our favourite heroes around the office, was skyrocketed to mainstream fame and success in 2018 with his first feature film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
