Agamon/Oni:
Elfquest, yes! I was sitting here thinking "gee, that's funny, I never read any fantasy when I was a kid!" But I must have read that whole series (first 8 graphic novels) 20 or so times... If anyone here hasn't checked them out, do so. The art is absolutely beautiful, and the characters are extremely well-realized. If you have a lot of preconceptions about "how a fantasy world should be" you might have some trouble with it ("trolls" are basically green dwarves, and a little meaner.)
How did I pick that much up? Well, my parents were both Fantasy/Sci-Fi fans, my Dad played D&D, so I kind of naturally picked it up from them... Best way of putting it: In elementary school we were asked to interpret the phrase "beauty lies in the eye of the beholder," and I just
assumed they were talking about the creature from the monster manual, and answered accordingly
That said, I wouldn't say I'm "hooked on" the fantasy genre. I don't read fantasy books any differently than I read other books: Kurt Vonnegut trained me out of that
Although, I must give credit to the LotR movies for renewing my interest in high fantasy as of late... Never read the books, might do so after seeing the movies.
