I'll second that - they perhaps are too 'graphic' for the Shire...

I'm a late comer to this area of fiction, much to the hilarity of many people I know with my novice knowledge of the comic world, but all hail to Neil Gaiman's Sandman ("We're not worthy! We're not worthy!") series for reeling me in, Hook, Line and Sinker. Plus the very marvellous V For Vendetta - "Alan Moore knows the score...can you dig it?" Indeed. Shame they are sooo expensive though.

Plus, the X-Men films. My very favourite super-hero films of all. But Magneto? Why???

Also another addition to Orthanc for me is Wayne's World - I can watch those films over and over and over and still laugh my pants off. Aurora Illinois just looks like the coolest place to live...Denied!
