These are all the rage, as you probably know. My wife bought some a while back but doesn't use them (no time). I told her I was going to get one, so she was at Cracker Barrel yesterday and got me a DC one. It looks great !  Looking forward to doing this a little at a time while I feed the dogs. It really looks nice, and heavy too. $ 15.99 and it was the last one they had. |

Coloring alone is all fine and good, but I'd love for DC and Marvel to do more of these:  |

In what way does an "adult colouring book" differ from a "colouring book"?

The designs tend to be more intricate, lots of small spaces so more concentration required. Lots of mandalas. There are books for Doctor Who, Game of Thrones, Star Wars. I've got one using the art of Vincent van Gogh. And there are a lot of comic related ones, which use already-published art.    I'm looking forward to the Doctor Strange one. And for some reason there are a lot of these  |

British comics were years ahead. Until the 1980s almost every comic was black and white, and doubled as a colouring book. Sometimes they added colour, but we sometimes wished they didn't.  |

Gray Thing looks kinda cool, actually. And of course they did eventually get red costumes. Or their doppelgangers did.  It occurs to me that every issue of Cerebus is a coloring book. |

In what way does an "adult colouring book" differ from a "colouring book"? It's porn, clearly. Calling a colouring book full of super heroes an "adult comic book" would be ridiculous... |

Do you still buy Crayolas for these books or is there something better?
