 Thought this was ineligible but on second thought it would have worked. This would have been my # 1 pick if I had thought about it. I just glanced at it, but this is Art chronicling his father's story of the Holocaust.  |

I think lots of people don't know about it, but yes, it's very good.

Understandable; Dark Horse published these in the 90's and obviously the source material came first.

One that I would like to have included had the rules allowed:  Crumb's version of Genesis affirms that these stories are really about human beings at their best and at their worst. And this one only exists as a straightforward adaptation in an alternate universe (so its inclusion here is admittedly gratuitous):   The X-Force/ X-Statix comics by Peter Milligan and Mike Allred remain one of my favorite contemporary superhero comic book runs. And the idea to make an undead Princess Diana part of the team would have been a brilliant extension of their satirical critique of the media. Ironically, it was because of the protests of a British tabloid, The Daily Mail, that Milligan and Allred were forced to abandon their idea and reconfigure the back-from-the-grave princess as pop star Henrietta Hunter. |
