Hi all, When asked for inspiration on the look and feel of Blackmoor, I always recommend the comic book series "Northlanders". Well, that series has just concluded with paperback #7. I highly recommend you go and get it while it is still available. A few years ago, I even wrote a guest entry about the series on Havard's blog: http://blackmoormystara.blogspot.de/201 ... nders.html :) Rafe |

Yeah, I really enjoyed some of the Northlander books, especially the first one. Does the last book hold up to the quality of the first book? -Havard |

I am sort of conflicted on that, actually. After the initial stories, the series sure drags along, and sure some motifs and tropes are overused. But really - a better independent fantasy comic book, I know not. Perhaps when Tim Sale did Thieves World. But that was in the 80s. :) |
