Barry windsor smith wolverine6/12/2023 The story itself: Even though this was the first time I have read one of Wolverine’s back stories on his life with Weapon X and there are like millions of other stories that tells Wolverine’s back story with Weapon X, I found Barry Windsor-Smith’s interpretation on Wolverine’s back story to be extremely interesting and intense. One day however, Wolverine escapes the program and causes massive mayhem in the lab! To be honest, “Wolverine: Weapon X” was the first story I have read that details the horrors that Wolverine has to go through when he was apart of the Weapon X program and I must say that I really enjoyed this book much more than I expected!īasically, this comic details the horrors that Wolverine goes through when he is abducted by scientists working on Weapon X and some of the horrors that Wolverine faces is that he has to go through the terrible experiments that the scientists put him through such as having him kill animals like wolves and bears and attaching his body to so many cords from machines. Ever since I heard so much about Wolverine’s past in the Weapon X program and how much that played a huge role in the character he has become, I wanted to try and read more on his back story of being apart of Weapon X.

When a terrorist attack targets Trade Federation homeworld Cato Neimoidia, Obi-Wan Kenobi is dispatched to investigate the situation and handle it as best he can from a diplomatic point of view. Mike Chen’s novel Brotherhood picks up soon after, with Anakin having been promoted to Jedi Knight, along with many other Padawans, as a matter of necessity for the Jedi Order stretched-thin and moving from their roles as peacekeepers into more military positions. “Begun, the Clone War has,” Master Yoda states in his familiarly awkward way, at the end of second Star Wars prequel, Attack of the Clones.

Ha’s “Behind the Panels” shares DeConnick’s charge for Ha and her as co-creators of Book Two: “The scripts that follow should be considered more of a roadmap than a set of blueprints.”īook Two: DeConnick, writer Ha, artist Wesley Wong, colorist Clayton Cowles, letterer.Ī cultural and political narrative in the U.S. I explained that Book One, with artist Phil Jimenez, offers not just a beautiful and compelling superhero narrative, but also vivid and urgent messages for our lives today.ĭeConnick joins artist Gene Ha in Book Two. But I think, especially for my father, we tell stories of our lives to hold onto those moments and years that slip farther and farther into our past, fading.Īs I read Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons (Book Two), Kelly Sue DeConnick’s telling and retelling of mythology grounded in the Wonder Woman universe, I thought about my father’s storytelling as well as why we have myths. We tell stories, often over and over, in an effort to understand better our lives, understand better what it means to be human. They married in secret during her lunch break from her job working at a Winn-Dixie checkout counter. Not a literary person, my father returned again and again to telling us about his courtship with my mother. Throughout my childhood, my father told the stories of him growing up, and life before my sister and me, so many times, with so much detail, I can retell them myself today-several years past his death, many decades since I was a child. Hunted by Meagan Spooner6/11/2023 She leaned forward, abandoning the sewing on her lap so she could nudge the glass-paned window open a fraction. In the distance the treetops swayed as if in a gust of wind, but the rest of the forest was still. A storm? she wondered, inhaling the strangeness. YEVA WATCHED THE SKY over the far-off forest, listening to the baronessa with one ear. We always know before the change comes-but we never know what the change will bring. But we are trapped, and we can do neither. We could track it, or we could run with it. Each of us could read the change to come, neither hindered by the other. Our frustration vents in growls and grunts. We pace, our steps stirring the early snows. We sense a shift of power when it is coming. We feel the moment the wind changes direction. When a storm approaches, we feel it in the thickness of the air, the tension in the earth awaiting the blanket of snow. Who feels most alive in worlds that never were The curse of tenth grave6/11/2023 She's married to the worst of the three gods of Uzan, Reyes, who "destroyed worlds and obliterated life wherever he went." In addition, Charley's own daughter is "destined to defeat Satan and save the world." Providing contrast with the high stakes of this backstory and the eventual mystery plot are snatches of snarky humor (for example, Charley refuses to be friends with the archangel Michael because he once tried to kill her). Bestseller Jones's 10th Charley Davidson novel (after The Dirt on Ninth Grave) opens with an arresting sentence: "Ignoring the dead girl standing next to me, I crossed my bare feet on the cool windowsill, took a sip of piping-hot coffee, and watched the emerging sunrise from my third-story apartment window." For the uninitiated, Davidson soon reveals herself to be a deity.

She has directions for easy and difficult art projects so both kids and adults can use the book and create papel picado. Making Magic Windows is a procedural book (or how-to book) about how to create papel picado, which is the name for traditional Mexican cut-paper art. Writing in multiple languages and telling stories from the Mexican-American culture is also important for readers not from her culture because it teaches them about those languages and culture and helps them better understand all the differences in the world.Ĭarmen Lomas Garza also wrote nonfiction books about her art. She hopes that children who are bilingual and are from a similar culture will read her books and feel connected to the stories she tells. She also chose to write in both languages because she was thinking about who would read her books. She chose to write this way because she also speaks this way. In the video on the first page, she says that she writes exactly what she would say to people about her artwork.Īn important thing to notice about Carmen Lomas Garza's books is that they are all bilingual, which means they are written in two languages, English and Spanish. That means she is telling stories from her life, family, and culture mostly through her artwork and then she has also added writing to describe the stories to her readers. The books by Carmen Lomas Garza are mostly visual memoirs, including Family Pictures, In My Family, and Magic Windows. |
