Re-reading this classic once again. I remember when it first came out, somehow the idea of having mice and jews and Cats as Germans seemed so overly clever and calling the book by the German name for Mouse turned me off.... It wasn't until years later when my friend Gerg (who was a HUGE fan of the book) handed the two collections to me and said "Read 'em if you feel like it. If not, don't worry about it." Since I had the books right there I decided to give it a chance and I was immediately swept away by Art Spiegelman's captivating storytelling. Now it's one of my all-time favorite graphic novels to read and re-read again.
