A guilty pleasure passed on

I was in one of my fretful I-don't-know-what-to-read states of mind and impulsively pulled out my collection of Elfquest comic compendiums (hey, blame [livejournal.com profile] kijjohnson, she's the one who introduced me to Elfquest). To compound my sin, I mentioned them to Fiona. Now she's hooked and is galloping through book 4--in fact some lively skirmishes have broken out over the two of us over who gets to read one of the books first.

Should I have mentioned them to her? I feel sorta guilty about this. But she's enjoying herself hugely.

Hey.

Elfquest is good stuff. It's got good comic art, it's a really interesting fantasy world, and especially the first few years of it were a well-realized creation. (When it sprang off into 4 different books, they lost me, but before that, it was quality stuff.)

And the sexuality (which is not *particularly* explicit) is also quite lesbigay-friendly.
