All right guys, if you still remember this, I asked what a good graphic novel be for my English class. A non-fantasy, historical kind. So, guess what: this time I just want to read some good Graphic Novels/Comic Books. There is no specific details that limit your reccomendations, just your opinions. So far, I have these, listed by most favorite to least favorite:

Watchmen
Marvel Zombies: Dead Days
From Hell
Marvel Zombies
The Metamorphosis
Wolverine Origins
Wanted

and these are the recomendations that you guys gave me before:

Sin City
Ronin
Batman: Arkham Asylum
The Dark Knight Returns
Batman: The Killing Joke
V for Vendetta

and these are the ones I'm considering to buy with the cash I got in my wallet:

Sin City (Amazon collection)
Batman: Arkham Asylum (15th Anniversary Edition)
Batman: The Killing Joke (Paperback edition)
Ronin
(Forgive my language but this is the actual title) Kick-Ass
The Hills Have Eyes: The Beginning
V for Vendetta
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (Every Volume)
The Mirror of Love
Voice of the Fire
Astonishing X-Men Series

That's basically it, but believe it's not much. So go on, shout out your opinions, reviews, and recomendations.

BTW - From Hell, the most recent GN I bought, is interesting (still reading it) and has a nice length to last, but it kind of drags and has too much adult content in it.
 
ever read the series Eragon? i liked that series. read it at least 10 times in a row. good adventure, fighting book. :)
 
These two: V for Vendetta
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

I did. Didn't enjoy as much as I thought it would. I dont think its a GN, though. Unless a version of it came out that's like a comic book.

I swear Lotus, sometimes it just doesn't seem like you read the thread topic. He's asking for a graphic novel and you bring up Eragon? Lol what?!

I love you Lotus. <3

AnotherAsian, V for Vendetta is awesome.
 
Try the Hellblazer, it's long, but good. They're the comic series that features Constantine.
 
You got some really good stuff on that list. You should also check out Batman: The Long Halloween, I just read it not too long ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. Also, check out some comics and GN's by Warren Ellis. Global Frequency, The Authority and Crecy to name a few of his more notable works.
 
Astro city series is one of the best.

once i started this... it was so hard to stop
 
but I dont want to buy a GN that drags on. I made that mistake with From Hell. it was good, but had too much unnecessary stuff in there

oh and I was also considering:

Top Ten (Alan Moore)
Promethea
Lost Girls
X-Men Messiah complex

If you read any of these, please tell me your opinions about them. I didnt get any when I bought From Hell so I wasnt warned
