Image, Valiant, Dark Horse, IDW.. it’s not Marvel or DC (at least not directly), but the best of the rest!

First issues/arcs may stand in for entire volumes/series’.

Have you ever thought about reading comic books but were unsure where to begin? Is the deep dive into the world of Superheroes daunting & confusing? Would you rather face off with Villains instead of deciding where to begin your comic-reading journey? Well, allow me to be your guide to help you ease into the ever-changing, action-packed, spandex-wearing world of Comic Books! Every comic in the list can be read without any prior knowledge of the characters or their worlds.

The goal of the list is to help find at least one 'comic' you want read, if you don't really read 'comics'! (inspired by Les 1001 BDs by Trécarré)

all books that have been adapted to another medium. mostly film and TV but other adaptations might get mixed in.

I know there are some comic book lists out there, but I was thinking about making a list of comic book series I think people should not miss (or books I would put in a Starte Pack type quest). I am excluding graphic novels and focusing on multiple-volume comics. I am only adding the first volume of each.

This is the list from The Atlantic. "In 1868, a little-known writer by the name of John William DeForest proposed a new type of literature, a collective artistic project for a nation just emerging from an existential conflict: a work of fiction that accomplished “the task of painting the American soul.” It would be called the Great American Novel, and no one had written it yet, DeForest admitted. Maybe soon."

Not all graphic novels have to be super hero stories
