Comic Books are something that I don’t have a lot of exposure to. At one time I got into “The Darkness” and loved it. I really enjoyed Silvestri's work. My experience with comic books though has mostly been that they are pretty to look at but are lacking in content.
and I mean, have you ever been in a comic shop? There is a hell of a lot of different comic books in there. Just thinking about navigating those titles is exhausting. Thing is, you hit too many crappy comic books and it might turn you off to em completely.
Here’s “Comic Book girl 19” to help out. Heard of her? She recently did a piece on the Avengers and “How to start reading Comic books” that got pretty popular. I’ve included a bit from her youtube called “Batman Night of Owls. Critical Comic Book Reviews”
There's swearing but she's enthusiastic, comes off as really being into comics and wanting to share some of the cool stuff out there. Take a look:

great, eh?! So what I loved most about this piece and why I wanted to post about it is A) she mentions what sounds to be an awesome twist in artwork at 3:52 when she talks about Batman getting drugged and the panels start to go in different directions... That’s awesome! That somebody felt that they could be creative about it and do that is just awesome.
Bonus points for the Batman voice at 5:36
And B) enjoyed at 6:05 when she talked about the emotional and character development aspect of that comic book. THAT’s the content that’s missing from a lot of other comic books.
Check out some of her other videos, especially the two I had mentioned earlier.
