Batman: Ghosts by Sam Kieth
I love Batman but stay away from this one. One of the worst Batman stories out there and the artwork is too Tim burton and Salvador Dali inspired.

reread Jan. 2021. The Ghosts story is actually more intriguing than I remembered it. I enjoyed the supernatural aspect but the storyline wasn't really fleshed out well. It's still not wonderful in terms of how women and folks with disabilities are treated. The artwork is also not to my taste. But I felt that the storyline had some interesting things to say about the nature of pain and memory, so I'm giving it a pass.

Oh but that Batman/Lobo story is horrific. A real piece of trash writing.… (more)

Arkham Asylum: Madness by Sam Kieth
Apparently I don't like graphic novels. I have nothing to compare this to, and I found the plot kind of hard to follow, since it had the dialogue all over the page; nor was it particularly scary to me. Give me a good old Hannibal Lecter any day.

Annotated Sandman Vol. 1 (Sandman Annotated) by Leslie S. Klinger
I think I appreciated this more the second time around (or more, if you count the standard issue graphic novels) - the beauty, the dark, the hope, the horror; all of it hit me harder with this re-read. I cannot WAIT for the TV show.
