    So I recently rekindled my love for graphic novels and totally want to read more! I was wondering if anyone could give me suggestions :slight_smile: As of right now, I have Death, Alice in Sunderland, and X-Men :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: Thanks to all who respond! :slight_smile:

    Sandman, I like the fables which are like a ton of mini story lines in one book.

    Watchmen if you haven't read that already. Many undertones of philosophy in that. Plus all the 'heroes' are either of questionable morals or damaged in some way, a lot more complex than your average goodies vs villains dynamic.

    X-Men: Age of Apocalypse.
    Batman: The Killing Joke.

    I could list some others, but those two immediately stand out.

    Oh sweet, I think I've heard that one too! But that definitely sounds intriguing. Thank you! :slight_smile:

    Of course, I can always count on the lovely Miss Kaiser to give suggestions on everything nerd related XD <3 I have X-Men, although it's the Essential X-Men, not Age of Apocalypse, so I'll definitely look out for that and the Batman one :slight_smile: Thank you darling!

    Watchmen and V For Vendetta are the only ones I've read - I suppose they weren't graphic novels - they were a series of comics. Actually, I don't know about V For Vendetta, but Watchmen was. Last year, a girl approached me and asked me if I had ADHD (which I don't). Anyway, we talked - she had Asperger's - and she told me to read Watchmen. I eventually did, when I got the chance. I loved it.

    You have to read Blacksad! Seriously the most amazing art I've seen in a comic book, it's unbelievable. Also Bone and RASL by Jeff Smith are amazing :slight_smile:

    And +1 for The Killing Joke!
