Hi everybody,
Just joined the forums! I am a complete comic/graphic novel newbie so please forgive my ignorance! I joined the forums to hopefully get some advice about some graphic novels!
On a bit of a whim I just randomly bought a copy of Batman Year One, as I was thinking about playing the recent Batman trilogy of games and I also picked up a copy of V for Vendetta. I have never bought or read a comic/graphic novel in my life! Anyway I really enjoyed both of these and I was thinking about maybe getting a few more!
My favourite book is 1984 and I think V for Vendetta sat quite well with me for its similar dystopian future setting, and Year One was quite gritty so I think I am more interested in the darker gritty style of graphic novels. Next on the list is Watchmen and maybe The Walking Dead, I have also read loads of good things about Brian Vaughan so might pick up Paper Girls and Saga but there are so many comics out there and it's pretty hard and intimidating for a newbie to walk into as I have no idea where to begin!
Anyway yeah, hello everybody! If you can think of any comics/graphic novels which are quite dark and gritty then let me know as I am eager to get some more comics and would greatly appreciate any guidance!
Thanks!
