Looking for your Graphic Novel suggestions

I'm providing input on the setup of a graphic novels book club. This will be my second that I've helped select content for and I was curious to see what RIU's input might be. I personally have enjoyed The Invisibles (check my profile pic. this is a seven volume series written by Grant Morrison under the heavy influence of DMT and was ulteriorly his attempt at creating his own system of magic with The Invisibles being a massive "spell". Yeah. It kicks ass), Watchmen, Locke and Key (brilliant, if you don't read a lot of graphic novels this is a great serial and a great place to start), Persepolis, Maus (both a good example of how far GN's have come in literary terms). I've heard good things about 100 Bullets and Transmetropolitan. I was actually avoiding TM for awhile after coming off of Invisibles because the main characters' artwork seemed so similar at the time. Anyway folks, I'm here for suggestions. Buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh bye bye!!

Well, it's not an actual "graphic novel" (yet) but, for listening Stone Sour: House of Gold and Bones. ...

Frontman Corey Taylor, also of Slipknot, wrote the lyrics for the 24 tracks as a linear storyline that will also be picked up on in a four-part graphic novel series to be released in early 2013

I would have suggested Watchmen, but you already have that listed.

well idk if this is you genre but the one piece series is excellent so is the shaman king series is also and now that they have been out for awhile you can find them online free.

XxHazexX

You already listed Watchmen. Mage. Cerebus - but only the early years. Elfquest.

I dunno new stuff... I just held on to those classics all these years. I still got most Grimm Jack, but I don't think that was every reprinted.

I would be into something about GG Allin

Sandman is another great classic being considered as well, forgot to mention. Also, I think its worth mentioning that Locke & Key is written by Joe Hill who just happens to be Stephen/Tabitha Kings' kid. Excellent writer.

but wait if we give those to you, what good is it to those of use who wirte for fun? hey man i want royalties for my stuff bro.

ok a guy takes over the government, and instills a set of anti rules, aboloshing any and all laws on oil, gas, ect. pot is legal and hemp fuel,bio d, and french fry oil are the means of fuel at this point because it became to much to waste money on. the world no longer relies on the government to provide because they have come to realize that the government took from them and hid everything for the beni of profit. man exchanges good for what he needs. and cash has lost its value completely being replaced by some new form of currancy, but with the use of this curriency comes tax and you could buy everything from your own self stock of trade community you have rather than buy from your government.ALL THIS IS COPYRIGHT any and all attempts to duplicate and make money off of it all all revoked and subjct to harsh lawsuites for the monies made off this book and returned to ME. 2013 copyright, void no where and will hunt you down for my book rights.its my BOOK!!!!!
