His story lines are fascinating and intense. He guides you down a path of visual adventure which I couldn't help but access my creative mind, drawing my own interpretation of the characters and the conflicts they faced from chapter to chapter. <br /><br />These stories were originally penned for the comic book genre which actually helped a typical non-fiction reader like myself stay glued to it's pages. <br /><br />Great stories...Great book...Waiting for more...
