Hey everyone,

I'm new to the world of comic books and looking for some recommendations to get started. I’m interested in exploring a variety of genres, but I’d like to focus on stories with strong character development and unique artwork.

I’m open to both superhero comics and graphic novels. What are some of the best titles or series for someone just diving into comics? Any must-reads for beginners? Also, if you have any suggestions on where to start (chronologically, artistically, etc.), I’d appreciate the guidance!

Thanks!

For strong character development and unique artwork, I’d recommend starting with Saga by Brian K. Vaughan, which mixes sci-fi and fantasy with deep characters. Sandman by Neil Gaiman is another great choice, blending mythology and horror. If you're into superheroes, Ms. Marvel (2014) by G. Willow Wilson offers a fresh perspective, while Maus by Art Spiegelman is a powerful graphic novel on the Holocaust. Finally, Y: The Last Man by Brian K. Vaughan is an excellent post-apocalyptic story with well-developed characters.

If you're looking to dive into comics with strong character development and unique artwork, I highly recommend Saga by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples. It blends sci-fi and fantasy with deep characters and stunning visuals. Sandman by Neil Gaiman is another must-read, offering a rich mix of mythology, fantasy, and horror. For a superhero comic, Ms. Marvel by G. Willow Wilson provides a fresh, personal take on the genre. Maus by Art Spiegelman is a powerful graphic novel about the Holocaust, and Y: The Last Man by Brian K. Vaughan is an excellent post-apocalyptic series with compelling characters. These comic books will give you a great start in the world of graphic storytelling.
