Bah, you just need to find the right graphic novels. Stuff like bleach is like quicky porn; it's good for about 20 minutes worth of kicks.

If you want some really good stuff, try "The Courageous Princess". Also, all the anime in Japan that comes over to the U.S. is aimed at kids. But there are some really good adult themed manga in Japan that you can import(though you'll have to be able to read japanese.)

And then there's the really good stuff by antarctic press, which is a small based publisher in San Antonio, Tx. They do some good stuff. Though you'll have to fish it out from the more kiddie ones.

But yeah, I highly reccomend the "Courageous Princess". It's a very good story.

I figure in this case gravedigging is OK, since this isn't a debate thread, and I won't be turning it into one.  Probably I'll do with this what I've done with my Robotics thread.  When I find something cool that fits the title of the thread, I'll post it here.

To answer the title question, yes, I like comic books, and I like anime and other action cartoons.  I was reading Marvel and DC back in the 70's when I was a pre-teen and then a teen, and while I took breaks for years at a time, I never completely lost touch or lost interest.  Lately Marvel leaves me cold, except for one character, Gorilla Man - http://www.comicsinfinity.com/p-49428-preorder-gorilla-man-1.aspx

However, Marvel's movies excite me.  Below is the trailer for Thor, a movie I eagerly await!  This will be me:  :pop:

DC has sparked my interest again; in particular, Batman.  I was skeptical for quite a while, but DC is clearly evolving the character and his mythos, and I like evolution.

So - Do you like comic books/anime/cartoons?

Prayers that need no answer now, cause I'm tired of who I am
You were my greatest mistake, I fell in love with your sin
Your littlest sin.

I haven't read "The Courageous Princess," so I can't comment on it, but I agree with the rest completely.

Go read Hellsing. The manga and Hellsing Ultimate are the greatest things the Japanese have ever done. Besides bukkake.
