Welcome to Litsy!

54/150. Barely squeaked this one end before May is done. This really shouldn't work, it's kind of a crazy idea, but it's more entertaining than I expected. The Space Ghost/Green Lantern tale was the best, following traditional comic book tropes of having them fight before they team up to fight the real bad guys. Adam Strange/Jonny Quest was also a lot of fun. Sadly, the Booster Gold/Flintstones and Batman/Top Cat chapters ⬇️⬇️⬇️

1) Definitely, their stories focus on really different things and you can usually even see a difference in the books at times. A lot of my large comic book volumes still have the newspaper paper used which isn‘t common for graphic novel (plus we can even throw manga in as the third category here).

2) The tagged one is really fun and I don‘t think very well known

3) Depends on the story but open to whatever!

This is shockingly good. It is one of the best-written pieces of satire that I have read in a while. It manages to address PTSD, religion, infertility, war, and homophobia in a relevant and smart way. Using the Flintstones. I know, I was surprised, too. But trust me.

Care of Magical Creatures OWL: 5⭐️

When you go into a Flintstones comic, you don't expect it to cover the amount of hard hitting topics that it does. This volume covers a variety of topics ranging from caring for those you don't know, the meaning of religion and how science plays into that, war, politics, and consumerism. I highly suggest it for anyone that wants a quick read on something that addresses serious topics in a light and fun way.

Along with Scooby-Doo Apocalypse, this is DC's best Hanna-Barbera recreation. Funny, touching, surprisingly sharp and witty, much more than the silly rock and stone puns of the cartoon (although those are there too). I didn't expect this to touch on the horrors of war, veterans, consumerism and religion. I recommend it. 4 💥💥💥💥 out of 5.

The classic pre-historic world re-imagined as trenchant social satire. Exquisite art and great writing combine in this shockingly good series. This is the new bar by which all reboots should be evaluated.

Didn‘t realize how much I needed this in my life. Super funny, laugh out bits like the swimsuits while also covering a wide variety of hard hitting topics. Definitely worth the read and will be getting volume 2 in the near future. Very nostalgic with all the same characters but takes a different twist on the story.

The Flintstones volume 2 (end)
I had no idea this was meant to be a limited run series. I didn‘t realize it until I finished this volume and did some research. Overall a good short series 👍 A fun modern twist on the classic stone age family 😁

This is not the Flintstones of my childhood, it‘s a brilliant satire tackling a wide range of topics. This is just an incredibly well done book. Can‘t wait to read the next volume!

My husband has been after me to read this for weeks because he loved it so much. I finally have a day off and a break in reading commitments and can jump in.
