Deadshot 666 Posted January 14, 2012 We have alot Manga readers on this site but around only 10-15 people who read western and european comics to my knowledge.The main reason I hear this is that they don't like superhero comics or just don't understand what western comics mean.So everyday i will post around 7 great comics that are not superhero comics just to prove how dumb that reason is and to show you some great comics.Also am going to list comics by numbering just to see how high i get. 1)Criminal If you like Crime Noir type things to will love this series. 2) Ex Machina A comic dealing with Post 9/11 with the main character getting Superpowers and becoming mayor of New York City with him dealing politics.Very well done series. 3) Bone This is first comic i ever read and it's a very funny and fantasy is well done. 4) Y:The Last Man What would happen If there was only one man on earth? This comic deals with question and is one of best comics i have read.Having very well done female characters as well as doing almost everything you would want in a comic. 5) Blankets A comic dealing with first love and family.It's shows how comics don't need to have action to be great and it's one best stories about someone falling in love.It's a masterpiece. 6) I killed Adolf Hitler Written by Norwegian named Jason writes really fun comics and it's great for media to have writer who writes stuff like this. 7) Scott Pigrim Best Book very written by Canadian.It has charm and comedy while filled with tons of great gaming reference's and everything in this book works well and it's just fun.Also it's set in Canada!!! 2 Kaiso and Kishira reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deadshot 666 Posted January 15, 2012 Some more of my fav's 18)The Unwritten One of coolest ideas in comics and one of best vertigo in years.If you like Harry Pother you have to read this 19) Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth Chris Ware’s art is perfectly simple and his storytelling wonderfully complex. 20) Scalped One of best Vertigo books ever created and it's great crime fiction 21) Flight Kazu Kibuishi’s concept for this immersive anthology was a simple one: Take a handful of young cartoonists—the average age was 24—and have them write and draw whatever they’d like, as long as it revolved around the theme of flight. 22) Maus One best and most important graphic novels. 23) Sweet Tooth Written by One of best Canadian writers Jeff Lemire and is a damn good post-apocalyptic parable. 24) Casanova A great series by Icon the marvel imprint.
