Nana Comics!

Nana comics by creator Ai Yazawa are some of my favorite comics ever. I am slowly but surely building my collection. I find most of these from ebay and amazon but some are gifts from my beloved friend. Nana follows the adventures of two women named Nana who are complete opposites and end up getting a flat together in Tokyo. There is music, fun clothing styles and I love all of their friends. My good friend looks a lot like one of their friends and he ended up getting me a few of these so that was sweet. I think you will love not only the fun story but also the aesthetics of the mangas. Let me know what some of your favorite manga series are in the comments. Much love to you. Fall is almost here! 

Nana manga from various places, skeleton hand and rib cage figurines from Dollar Tree.

Sandman by Neil Gaiman

I and many other Sandman fans have ben waiting years for a cool adaptation into film and show. I am so happy that Neil Gaiman wrote these and I have so much love and respect for him and Sam Kieth and the many other illustrators that brought these comics to us. Below is my graphic novel collection. Some day I would like to own all of the vintage 75 comics haha that is my dream. No pun intended ;)



 

Everyone will ask where I got this Death top. I got it from etsy

Excalibur Comics

Let me start off my saying I have been to a lot of comic books shops but this one was by far the most organized and together comic shop I have ever seen. If you find yourself in Portland make sure to check it out. They have something for everyone from the goth to the geek to the super comic book nerd and the guy there was chill, friendly and knowledgable. He was nice and not pretentious like some comic book people my friends have run into. He was happy to share his knowledge and suggestions. We had a great time browsing the selections and we will definitely be back.

Gothic Comics


This weekend I took a little trip to the comic book store. I love comic stores. I love the feeling I get when I'm in one and it brings me back to my childhood. I use to read my uncles old school comics and then I fell in love with a more gothic variety of comics and graphic novels in high school. I loved The Crow by James O' Barr so I read that quite a bit. My favorite artists are Jhonen Vasquez and Roman Dirge. I was thrilled to find a new JTHM tee to rock. I also picked up a few other things and this cool guy turned me onto a series called Lock and Key, which I am thrilled to check out. 








 Rocking my new Johnny tee. Love it.
