as im writing this i am reading the graphic novel series of Trigun when i was younger i also read Kingdom Hearts and in a week or so i may get the chance to read Pandora Hearts for some odd reason but if you guys hav read the Witch Hunter than you might like Trigun. but thats just my favorites. tell me your top 5 graphic novel series

I would only ever get into Graphic Novels if the art was really nice. I refuse to live in a fantasy land of poorly drawn people and horrible design.

I only read one graphic novel, and that was Stormchaser - the graphic novel.

The only one I've read is The Walking Dead.

Also, shit, I hate the term "graphic novel." It sounds so much better to call them comics, even if it's not technically correct.

Dragon Ball Z.

Nah, I actually haven't read. Out of the very few that I own, I'll say Hellsing. It's not your average animu.

Darker Than Black - Shikkoku no Hana

Seriously. Anyone who watched Darker than Black and wasn't satisfied with the ending of the second series, read this shit.

Graphic Novel is the term they use when they want to pretend they arent comics.

Well manga, comic and graphic novel do all mean the same thing really except for minor differences.

Hentai is just hentai and its always lewd.

james kolchaka's "American elf" is an amazing graphic novel, since the artist chroniclizes his life through daily comic strips

My favourites are Kick-Ass, Scott Pilgrim, Lost At Sea and the Jhonen Vasquez books, JtHM, Squee and I Feel Sick. ^-^

depends on your classification

Killing Joke or Hush

I don't read many GN's...but if I wanna read comics, this is my main means of doing so.

Watchmen

Fuck you!

Watchmen is not a graphic novel, it's a trade paperback!

porn is lewd

I've got the first four volumes of The Walking Dead and it's pretty great. Wish I had more of them actually. It's the only recommendation I can give since it's the only graphic novel I can recall reading.

Watchmen.

Aren't graphic novels comics which have more than 100 and a lot more story/plot?

OP, why do you underestimate punctuation so much?

If Bill Watterson's Calvin & Hobbes never equated to "graphic novel" status, then I'm going with Jhonen Vasquez's work.

Squee first, Johnny the Homicidal Maniac second.
