Top 10 Essential Graphic Novels, Part 2 - with Stuart McMillen

[@Dziv]

Love the way you explain every comic, you make this explanations so comfortable to listen.

[@matostivala]

you nailed with Blankets! a delightful story to revisit from time to time.

[@hellbenthornball1153]

Excellent, excellent choice of graphic novels. It's refreshing how you ended with "Fun Home" and "Blankets," and how you do not shrink from showing some more adult panels, as well as adult subject matter story-wise. You have a wonderful presence and presentation, allowing us to see enough of the artwork to really appreciate it. Many thanks.

I have been bored by typical us comics about sup. heroes. I have been searching something fresh in this topic, and i found you. Your channel gives me what i have wanted from many years. New wide perspective about comics books. Thank you.

[@space.pirate481]

well are a lot of comics by jack Kirby not all about super heroes,his romance ,scifi so on,not to mention transmetropolitan series so on,you gotta search are a lot of comic books even from 40,50,60 which aren't all about super heroes

[@mnm25chango2]

Really loved both parts of your essential list - great videos!

[@Waterpopgifts]

I love that you don’t just summarize the story but also explain what you love about it. I have been searching for recommendations forever for unique long graphic novels in this style. I got so excited when you said you were narrowing your selections down to these. THANK YOU ☺️

[@protoplasma2953]

Awesome list. Been looking for more non-superhero recommendations as those are the stories I really like. A few I would recommend to you would be “Alec” by Eddie Campbell, “Cleveland” by Harvey Pekar, and “From Hell” by Alan Moore.

[@comicshelfie]

i'm thrilled that I finally found (someone and) a channel with the same tast as me in absolutely everything related to comics.

[@noaanker9602]

Such a nice and informative video - thank you! Just ordered Safe Area Gorazde because of this list :)

[@levitybooks3952]

Pretty good list. Personally, I'd have inserted Adrian Tomine, Nick Drnaso, Daniel Clowes, Seth, or Charles Burns in place of Tamaki, but otherwise, I think I would have also picked all the others for they give a good range.

[@danilo.castelli]

Hey man! Of the whole list, I've only red Watchmen. Persepolis caught my attention. I really recommend El Eternauta (The Eternaut in english). It's an argentinian graphic novel. Some other graphic novels I liked: V for Vendetta, Transmetropolitan, Preacher, Crossed, The Boys.

[@jonbornholdt1790]

Good list, but I'd certainly have included something by Charles Burns, either Black Hole or Last Look.

[@BookBlather]

Nice set of videos. Hadn’t heard of most of these.

[@simorch6766]

I think you'd like Osamu Tezuka manga works, particularly Message to Adolf. I'd also recommend checking out Vagabond by Takehiko Inoue, anything by Naoki Urasawa you never know where his story is going. Lastly I'd check out Bride's Story by Kaoru Mori. Her artwork is impressive.

[@stumcm]

Thanks for those Japanese recommendations!

[@Dotistic]

Not a fan of colored pages huh? :)

[@RenskevanderHeide]

Thanks, Stuart! You suggested two comics I didn’t read yet, so will do soon! (This one summer & Box office poisson) I think Hostage from Guy Delisle is also worth mentioning if you enjoyed these comics.

[@phenomenal14U]

Thanks love your recommendations

[@Bavubuka]

Why so few coloured comics?

[@OhWaker]

I wonder how you would like the Sandman series by Neil Gaiman.

[@dw2062]

Great series

[@baedeckerbaedecker9664]

Changed my life.

[@zleepydude224]

How are Asterios nor Blackhole in here?

[@drsoe08]

Try Alan Moore's "From Hell"

[@ThaKid14]

nothing beats it hha. easily the greatest graphic novel ever

[@harrypotteravenclaw]

He said, if you dont like blankets then leave, and rightly so

[@geoffreydonaldson2984]

You missed Chester Brown’s “Riel”-which is right up there with Spiegelman’s “Maus.” Oh well.

[@jgerardo231208]

great list man

[@bertmeer]

Did you ever read "Goodbye Chunky Rice" by Craig Thompson. Different but very good.

[@dannybenoit]

Great video but your into/outro music is much louder than your voice

[@shahifra6759]

Anyone any clue how to get acess to comics on internet for free..

[@shawnoliver2964]

Hey Stu, check out The Metabarons by jodorowsky.

[@flflflflflfl]

Loved the video, subscribed to your channel. But please consider getting rid of the annoying guitar riffs!

[@silas1414]

Great suggestions but the music is torture

[@roytl]

quite the snoozefest this list

[@stupid132435]

Not saying those comics aren't good but it almost seems like you judged them based more on their progressive message.

[@connordyer3891]

Don't wanna be that guy but...... Saga?
