The Year of Comic Books in Review - Part Three (March)

February was seriously lacking in nominees for "best comic book of the year according to Bloggity-Blog-Blog-Blog", but March managed to put in a trio of contenders.

The first would be Amelia Rules #9. This is the issue in which we learn a bit about Amelia's past, including her old best friend. This was a painful and touching issue, and the reality of a kid being ripped from a comfortable place and uprooted is shown extremely well.

I also really liked Crossovers in March. It was only the third issue, but it was the issue in which the various genres started to really clash. It showed what a great series this could become... pure fun.

The last comic book in March that produced a high rating will be hard to beat, as it was written for me. The Aquaman Secret Files main story was such a wonderful tale, aimed right at me, that writing this entry I wonder if anything can possibly compete against it. Luckily, I don't have to make that decision now.

So the nominees for March are: Amelia Rules #9, Crossovers #3, and Aquaman Secret Files 2003.
