Comic Books?

Anyone read them? I just started with The Walkng Dead comics--are there any other good ones I should check out?

V for Vendetta and Watchmen are excellent, although the colors in Watchmen took some getting used to.

I am reading a series called Saga which is pretty scifi...but I enjoy it a great deal.

I also just started a series called Ravine which is high fantasy and beautifully done.

I absorb comics and graphic novels. Some of my favourites:

Bone (probably my favourite of all time ever)
Maus (gritty, about the holocaust)
Sin City, 300, basically anything by Frank Miller.
Sandman
Transmetropolitan (think Hunter S. Thompson in the year 3000)
Watchmen
Persepolis
Habibi (this one is gritty, but excellent)
Pyongyang: A Journey in North Korea
Ghost World

If you're into manga at all, there's a ton I like there too.

I second Watchmen! I don't really read or know anything about comic books but I took a graphic novel class which was AWESOME and I loved Watchmen!

Another couple good graphic novels we read were Black Hole, Fun Home and Jimmy Corrigan.

psst V for Vendetta's Alan Moore.

My brain. LOL. That line was supposed to read "300 or Sin City". But I had just read your comment about V and... yeah.

V's totally Alan Moore, who also did Watchmen. He also did From Hell which is pretty grand.

Yes!

And all of your suggestions are great; Sandman is a ton of fun.

I've been enjoying Revival.

I'm a huge Sandman fan. Neil Gaiman <3
Bone is excellent
Maus
Persepolis
Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind
Pride of Baghdad


I need to read Watchmen and V for Vendetta. And Tintin.

I can't believe I forgot to add Nausicaa to my list. Seconding that recommendation, it's an absolute treasure.
