When the Raven Flies
Immersing in Vikings and Samurai, I devoured films fast—then hit DVDLady for cult gems like When the Raven Flies. Chaos, grit, and a 22-second English caption lag!
Humanity and Paper Balloons
Humanity and Paper Balloons is Sadao Yamanaka’s gritty, subversive period drama. A tale where flawed, human characters battle oppressive power.
Doctor Mœbius and Mister Gir
Strolling into Nuclear Comics in San Diego, I picked up Alan Moore’s From Hell and Doctor Mœbius and Mister Gir—a book that explores Jean Giraud's duality and his life.
Children of Ash and Elm
VIKINGS vs SAMURAI needed serious research, so I devoured Viking and samurai lore. Neil Price’s Children of Ash and Elm brought the Vikings alive—brutal, complex, real.
Hagbard and Signe
Hagbard and Signe is a visually stunning Viking tale of doomed love, honor, and vengeance, set against Iceland's raw, untamed landscapes.
