The Revision: Paradise Kiss

Ai Yazawa’s Paradise Kiss is more than 850 pages and the most surprising part is how little time passes. From the beginning to the end (minus an epilogue), it really only takes place over about a month. Paradise Kiss packs in so much, it still feels like an intense epic.

This is a cover of an issue of Young Love I scanned and made into a poster years ago. I love this image so much but there wasn't really a good spot for it in any of the rooms of new place but hey, hallway between the kitchen and the bedroom works. 'I don't like horror, I just own physical copies of all of these movies for no reason." I have a signed copy of Bryan Talbot's The Tale of One Bad Rat. It's an amazing book but I have read it exactly once and every time I flip through it, I can't. The Beatles - 1962-1966 (only sides 1 & 2) PJ Harvey - Rid of Me The Wu-Tang Clan - Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) https://www.instagram.com/p/DOjdx0fEZK8/ Happy to have hung @pitzergirl's cool collage in my bathroom! I need a few more things to round out the overall look but I love it. I first read about this in Trina Robbins' work and it was always something I wanted to read. I'm delighted @nyrcomics published this and I look forward to digging into it.
