Childhood
When i was yay big (*motioning with hand*) i spent most of my time
with my face stuck in a book. It didn't really matter what
type of book, just so long as it put my imagination to work.
Which is one reason why i love graphic novels. you can call
it a comic if you want, but it's still a book. A big picture
book. It's funny people don't like comics, but like books
with illustrations. Switch out the words for illustrations,
and what do you have... but i digress. I recently found out
that there's a movie in the making, Tintin: Secret of
the Unicorn (produced by Steven Spielberg and
Peter Jackson), for one of my favorite comics of all time,
Tintin. And it's got Daniel Craig, as the bad guy, Pirate Red
Rackham! Umm, yes!
This line of thought led me to my other favorite comic of all time, Asterix and Obelix.
Two indomitable Gauls, and their puppy, fighting to protect their homeland from the looming Roman empire trying to take over the world. And man can they brawl.
It turns out there are already a couple of movies out of this comic, but they're mostly only distributed in Europe, boo! Regardless, i found a song from the soundtrack of the last movie, Mission Clepatra, based on the book, Asterix and Cleopatra. And who sings it, freakin' Snoop Dogg in all his glory.

One day i will own i will own all 57 combined volumes of these books. But one can only dream. I highly recommend that you check out these books yourself next time you're in the young adult reader section of the bookstore, there's a lot more to it than Harry Potter and Twilight.
