MOLLY KREEMER'S FIRST COMIC!
Unlike most of my fellow comic slaves at Graham Crackers, I didn't get into comics until much later in life-- in college. After a few people I knew recommended I read Neil Gaiman's Sandman series, that led me into all of the other classic Vertigo "graphic novels." I loved all of them, and kept reading further. But I didn't start to (voraciously) read the monthlies until the Countdown to Infinite Crisis one shot. In fact, I'm pretty sure it was Matt Streets from the Loop Store who first handed it to me. I loved it. It was intriguing and action-packed, and the host of writers and artists were perfect. And even though a few (well, I'll be honest, most) of the characters weren't super familiar to me, I came to care about them immensely through the book. And when that ending came around?
Whoa. I was *hooked.* (Thanks, Matt)
