From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Guardian (and its sister The Observer - they share the same site) often has articles and reviews about less mainstream comics (specifically graphic novels) and so I'll drop in things I find. Feel free to lift them, add links (so they show in a "what link here" check) and I'll pick them up and see about integrating them where possible.
