If so this comic might be for you! Earlier this year I read and reviewed Batman: The Adventures Continue Season One. Still enjoyable, but not a patch on what came before, which is a shame. The artwork remains consistent however, even with Ty Templeton having to take a step back and leaving the majority of the series to Rick Burchett, an old hand at these Animated Series tie-in comics. ![]() ![]() The first half of the book is more interesting, since it features an adaptation of the Court Of Owls for the Animated Series universe, but even that feels oddly restrained, all things considered. ![]() I've seen Batman fight mobsters and such before, there's like 5 seasons of it - let's do something different for a change? It's obviously a conscious choice, and while hewing closer to the source material will probably please most people, I found this volume less compelling than the first for this reason. Gone are the likes of recognisable names like Deathstroke and Red Hood, instead mostly replaced by a corruption storyline featuring the old mayor of Gotham. The second volume of Batman: The Animated Series adventures reads much closer to the original series in terms of general plot compared to the first outing. ![]() ![]() ![]() OL17929788M Openlibrary_subject openlibrary_staff_picks Openlibrary_work ![]() Una nueva edición, en español y rimada, del clásico para primeros lectores de Dr. Urn:lcp:catinhatcomesbac00seus_0:epub:253c6208-1818-45f1-a82f-392f21b61974 Extramarc Cornell University Foldoutcount 0 Identifier catinhatcomesbac00seus_0 Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t83j4nb9n Isbn 9780394800028Ġ394800028 Lccn 58009017 Ocr_converted abbyy-to-hocr 1.1.20 Ocr_module_version 0.0.16 Openlibrary OL17929788M Openlibrary_edition About El Gato ensombrerado ha regresado (The Cat in the Hat Comes Back Spanish Edition). ![]() Access-restricted-item true Addeddate 17:14:41 Asin 0394800028 Boxid IA179601 Boxid_2 BL11203T Camera Canon EOS 5D Mark II City New York DonorĪlibris Edition renewed External-identifier When the Cat in the Hat comes back, he’s soon up to his old tricks, ably assisted by a team of tiny helpers that he keeps in his hat Adrian Edmondson reads a crazy classic with wild music and mad sound effects This is a wonderful addition to the Dr. ![]() ![]()
![]() ![]() Captain Blood was adapted for the screen in 1935. Of course he escapes, and becomes a savvy pirate! While Captain Blood is fictional, he was inspired by the real-life John Coad, who was involved in and convicted for the Monmouth revolution, transported, and eventually found his way home (I read about him in Condemned by Graham Seal). ![]() The sentence however, is not hanging but transportation and Peter finds himself a slave in the West Indies. ![]() Peter ends up connected with the Monmouth Rebellion when he attends to some wounded, and is sentenced by the famous Judge Jeffreys of the Bloody Assizes. Many of his books became bestsellers.Ĭaptain Blood, first published in 1922 (which makes it 100 this year), tells the story of fictional Irish physician Peter Blood, who has a career as a soldier and sailor. Quite prolific, he wrote 34 novels, short-story collections, non fiction, as well as several uncollected short stories.

The book is Captain Blood, the first in a trilogy of the same name by Rafael Sabatini. ![]() Today’s pick is a classic which has been on my ebook pile for a fairly long time, well over 5 years I think. ![]() ![]() ![]() It expresses the function of people like information, education, entertainment and transmission of culture.
