American Born Chinese by Gene Luen Yang

    I really did enjoy reading the comic of American Born Chinese by Gene Yang, since it was really understandable, and also the images included in the comic were easy to understand and straight to the point. In contrast to Sandman comic, this one didn't include any deep meaning and was way more enjoyable to read in my opinion. This comic had a clear moral to it, as it shows at the end when king monkey wanted to defeat his own god that created him, yet realized that he was just fooling himself , and that  he couldn't defeat that god unlike the others, since he created everything.I believe that American Born Chinese has more of a religions moral into it, since it shows how there is this one god that is the strongest out of all of them, creating and also destroying his creating if they decide to take the wrong path. I enjoy reading comics that have a clear moral like this one, and I do feel proud of myself to have ended reading this comic understand the plot and moral it contains.

Sandman Vol. 1 by Neil Gaiman

  I normally don't read comics that often, so I did have a difficult time reading Sandman. Not only was it a little unclear or confuse to understand, but I also didn't understand the direction in which the events in the story where moving. In my opinion, this kind of comic contains a more serious message than the kind of comics I am used to reading, since they don't contain vital details like Sandman. Other type of comics also tend to make me laugh but this one was the exact opposite, and gave a more serious message to the readers. Even  though I did have some difficulty trying to follow the direction of the story and the meaning it was trying to give, I did enjoyed taking some time and analyzing the events in the story. It was more like a puzzle game I needed to somehow find an answer to, which was the reason I kept reading Sandman

American Indian Myths and Legends Ed. by Richard Erdoes & Alfonso Ortiz

  I just had a great experience while reading these great Native Indian myths and legends selected by Richard Erdoes and Alfonso Ortiz. What I enjoyed the most of reading these ancient myths is the way these different native american tribes used things that we might find dumb or overrated, as for example animals or plants, they used it as something more holy and important in their everyday life. By them using nature as a way to express their view on something they found important, is what truly got me interested in continuing reading their myths and legends. I was also pleased to see how both Richard Erdoes and Alfonso Ortiz stated in the very beginning that they did not edit anything or take random information from anywhere, they even stated where each myth was taken from, at the end of every myth. It was also interesting to notice how they were disappointed to see how some of the ancient Native Americans myths/legends were  changed by white men. It's good to see how these two men decided to go out and search for these myths that may seem useless or not important to us, but in reality it holds the heart of these different native american tribes cultures. Even though most of these tribes no longer exist, including their culture, by gathering these myths and folktales, we can see how their cultures were, and how they used nature as an answer to their questions.
