Marvel Comics Essential Graphic Novels

Essential Comics for Readers Non-comic book

comic fans have been preaching for years: Comics are not just for kids. This must be the hat old now. So instead of trying a book, you are creating images in their mind based on the words. That's why a good writer can convey a complex picture and easily understandable. The beauty of books is that ten people reading the same book can reach ten different images based on how your mind in words.

The films tend to be the exact opposite. The one movie.

Comics are a unique combination of both. Forget about the contents of a second. Comics can do what no other possible way, the combination of words and art in a sequential format to tell a story and evoke feelings that other formats, in his attempt to evoke the same feelings, would have failed miserably. That's not to say comic book characters can not be in good movies. They can. However, emotion and feeling of reading Grant Morrison's Arkham Asylum can not be duplicated on the big screen. Same goes for Neil Gaiman's Sandman and Kurt Busiek of Marvels. For more information about this unique environment, I suggest McCloud Understanding Comics Scott.

Now with that out of the way, here are five developers who have written several series and / or graphic novels to non-comics readers would enjoy and find intriguing:

Alan Moore. I hate to confine it to just a classic. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and From Hell are also classics, and certainly not for children. Its entire line of ABC Comics worth reading. Even finding their individual stories (there are several compilations on the market), it is worth.

Grant Morrison. My personal favorite, it tends to be a little "out there" for some. But I think their stories to be contextually rich in symbolism and sequences that stay with me for days.

 

Neil Gaiman. Notable mainly for its operation pending Sandman, which I highly recommend, Gaiman also wrote the underrated graphic novel Murder Mysteries.

Greg Rucka. I include this Rucka that the medium of comics was the only way to get these stories to work better.

There are so many titles worth checking out (available in most local libraries), most of them worth reading again and time. Remember the comic book may have originally been intended for a young audience, About the Author
