V for Vendetta

Unless you count Tintin, I’ve never read a graphic novel before, but seeing as how the film’s been making some noise I thought it would be a good place to start.

This is a very dark piece, probably because the issues that it raises are so totally believable, and utterly current. Considering this book was written in the early 80’s, it could genuinely be described as prophetic. Reading this kind of work is a real reminder of the importance of personal liberty, but also puts the “opressive” restrictions on civil liberties which are being proposed at the moment into perspective somewhat.

Well worth a read.
