Too much literature, too little money and time.

Maus
A Maus-y view of the Holocaust


300
Frank Miller’s “widescreen” retelling of the Battle at Thermopylae

Also adapted into a movie. See the trailer here:


Usagi Yojimbo
Stan Sakai’s tales of the samurai rabbit!

Sandman
Seeing that most of the collection I had has been mysteriously wiped out (i.e. lent to “someone” and disappeared), it seems I have to rebuild the collection again. SIGH.

Terry Brooks
Straken
Armageddon’s Children

Raymond E. Feist
Various books, most of which I lapse reading over the many years. Truth be told, I have a sneaky feeling I won’t enjoy these books as much (actually, apart from the first Riftwar series, of which MY ENTIRE COLLECTION IS MISSING, his books are only so-so. But it’s the whole I-must-have-them-all mentality).

Talon of the Silver Hawk
King of Foxes
Exile’s Return
Flight of the Nighthawks
Into a Dark Realm
