You are transparent; I see many things... I see plans within plans.
I decided to re-read the first "novel" I can remember reading, Matthew Looney and the Space Pirates. Of course, I had tons of picture books like Dr Suess or Curious George, but this was the first way-more-words-than-pictures book. I was also attracted to the Gahan Wilson artwork!

I picked this up in Japan on my last trip.
It's called "Doctor Monster! Shoji Otomo's Best Works".
Shoji Otomo was an editor of several Shonen Magazines during the Kaiju boom of the 1960s, and pioneered the "Cutaway view" of science fiction monsters, and machinery that is still popular today. (See any of Dorling Kindersley's Star Wars Cross Section books).
Looking for Green Arrow accessories, Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver, and Japanese Popy Megos (Battle Cossack and France, Battle of the Planets, Kamen Rider, Ultraman)
i'm reading Lightfoot, by Nick Jennings. it's a biography of the late Gordon Lightfoot. he was an interesting and humble man
I had the essential volume. Not an traditional superhero comic but if you view it as an independent book and just go for the ride.
