just finished the following graphic novels:

* Angel : After the fall series ('tis "ok" - didn't set the world alight, but readable enough)
* Fray : Another 'Buffy' sequel - really enjoyed this one, slayer set in the future, bit darker than the usual stuff.
* Runaways Series (1-7) : Kinda novel twist on the usual Superhero stuff, the hero's are kids children of super villians who've runaway from their parents.
* Wanted : Dark and sinister, all kinds of intruiging in ways which the uber PC film version isn't.

On the book front:
Angel Fire East (last book in the word and the void series) - readable enough, but not 'amazing'.
Neversfall (forgotten realms) - very good fantasy novel
Beyond the Shadows (Brent Weeks) - very good fantasy novel part of a trilogy.
Slam (Nick Hornby) - I normally read fantasy and sci-fi, Nick Hornby is one of the few 'traditional' authors I read - I recommend nearly all of his stuff, Slam is good but "Long way down" and "About a boy" are even better imho (oh and for some reason his books have a habit of mentioning places I've lived in England which is doubly cool ).
