Hero Discussion: Reccomendations

Since summer is winding to an end, and if you're anything like me: you're super busy! It's no surprise that I actually didn't even get around to finishing the book... That's OK, I'm sure you didn't either. So, instead of our usual discussion questions, I'm going to go straight to the reccomendations --which you hopefully enjoy just as much (or more) than you enjoyed Hero if you're interested in checking them out. I'll start with the short lists of Graphic Novels/Manga, then get into the lengther book and movie suggestions (because trust me, I have a lot of them!). Books are linked to MORE, if available.

Graphic Novels:
-Bone, Tom Sniegoski
-Fairy Tail (manga)
-Kingdom Hearts (Manga, and also of course a video game)
-Runaways (for the 14+ crowd)
-Listing all of the Marvel and DC comic books would be crazy, but don't forget about those! Many are available on MORE!
-Wolverine (manga, not the comic book, though that's good too)

Television:
-Amazing Spiderman and Friends
-Heroes
-Justice League
-Teen Titans
-Wolverine and the X-Men
-X-Men: Evolution
