I love my graphic novels, I've currently gotten back into more independent comics since I started reading Sin City which I recommend to all of you. But idk I like to post threads on here and I like insight from all of you so I want some comic book suggestions!

oh man this is my jam... what do you like? as in stories, not just comics.

everyone should read 100 Bullets.

I've seen 100 bullets since I've been into comics, never got around to reading it though usually when I'm buying trades I don't get to open minded and get something I'm comfortable with knowing it won't waste my money. Idk story wise? I like action, badass action. With a story. I'm pretty open minded so it doesn't matter.

100 Bullets is pretty badass. give it a chance, the story is amazing and the art/action is great.

Anything involving Warren Ellis, especially Transmetropolitan or Desolation Jones. those are badass too.

Watchmen is a classic if you've never read it, Alan Moore is great.

Blade of the Immortal/Mugen no Junin is hands down my favorite comic series, ever. it's Japanese, yes it's about samurai and ronin, and YES IT IS INCREDIBLE. the artist/author has proven to me that comics can have better action than most movies, totally limitless.

edit: i have no real use when it comes to superhero comics, i like the characters but the industry never appealed to me. i prefer streamlined stories and superhero comics are always being remade, redone, expanded, etc. not interested enough to really invest my time into the history of thousands of characters.

You really outta look into some superhero comics considering dc came out with the new 52's

Sandman (if you haven't read them yet)

The Surrogates
The Surrogates Flesh and Bone
The Homeland Directive

by Robert Venditti

i dont know if you can consider it independent anymore because of the tv show, but the walking dead is a good one (read it before watching the show, so much better)

Y the Last Man

This was so good. I borrowed the whole set from the public library and read it in 2 days.
