Best standalone jumper of the year Omar!

[@coyley72]

Standalone Manga Top 10? Yes please

[@trishb.6398]

I love these videos every year.

[@Ernasto]

Another great list, Omar. This is why: Near Mint Condition.

[@jordanrichardlewis]

I have sent this out to my friends and family with the message “this is my Christmas list” Amazing video, Omar!

[@M0rt86]

Thank you Omar, you always show things which are later a must read for me! 💛

[@epheusikay]

Love your new format where you flip through the books but not spoil the stories by doing so. Really helps when someone is trying to make a decision on whether or not to buy the books over amazon/online.

[@elvaquerovaquero5243]

The man with the list is back! Thank you for what you bring us, Omar!

[@thetreeformerlyknownasmike7394]

I was literally just wondering when this update would come out. Thank you brother - hope you and the family are keeping well.

[@mattthompson3371]

I always find something new to read after your Hidden Gems video and this video. Thank you Omar!

[@pablomoral4751]

These are all bangers! I read most of them already, but I wrote down Skyward, hadn't heard about it. Looking foorward to your standalone manga top

[@Rodimusprimerib]

Never heard of Trillium, might need to get it. Love these list as always, brother

[@WhatIsRukiUpTo]

I love these episodes . I get introduced to a lot of great new comics this way. Thank you Omar

[@ryanlongden7330]

If you haven't before....make sure to check out these titles. Omar never fails me when he recommends a book. Some of my favorite books have come from one of these videos

[@carlricard2004]

These are my favorite kinds of videos from this channel! Great recommendations as always ! Thank you ! Now I have some books I need to go buy! 😁

[@michaelv8757]

Me checking in every year for the past 3 years knew you would come through :)

[@damonpono8337]

2:19 yes please, would love to see some more manga content, especially a collection tour

[@vincentimbesi3947]

Another great list of books! I’ll have to search some them out and give the ones I don’t already own a read. 💙👍🏼💙

[@JoeLovesComics]

Awesome picks, thank you!

[@Rtombooksart]

Cool threads Omar!!

[@toeknee1505]

I am interested in buying a couple of these graphic novels to give as Christmas gifts. Thanks Omar!!! Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving! I love watching your videos!!

[@DidiBarahona]

Thanks man, so many classics. Best thing in the vid your sweater !!!!! Abrazo desde Chile 💪🏼

[@mkmunares]

I love your way to talk abot comics, and the fact Im always discovering new things in your videos. Looking forward to your european graphic novels list!

[@korribreki]

Monsters looks right up my ally. Thanks Omar!

[@apjferreira1]

The Incal is one of my favorite books. Please make a european top 10 list.

[@Nazmanga]

love your channel, always get great recommendation from yah, thanks a-million

[@Minwater5]

Hi Omar, great video as always (and nice sweater). I was wondering how much you read on an average day, thanks

[@christophknopf629]

Darn ... just ordered INCAL ... you got me again.... Thanks for your great work! Lots of Love

[@sazmurph540]

I had forgotten about Skyward. I read the first half of the story in singles as I was more interested in the science of what happened and how the world would adapt. I never finished it so I'll have to revisit this series and finish it. And Omar, I think we all know why you never included Long Halloween previously. Subconsciously, you were upset as this was intended to retcon Year Two. It's ok, we understand!

[@Riceburner427-x8q]

The stand alone lists are really helpful 🎉 I splurge on a 'black mirror' or 'the hood' every 6months

[@HobGadling1389]

I've been meaning to read skyward for ages. Definitely gonna move it up the list for the hardcover.

[@siniquezu]

Link to the sweater?

[@ondreibazant-fabre2164]

Great recommendations! I just hoped you focused on 2024 releases.

[@2OldGeeksTalking]

Ed Brubaker and the 1940's go together like PB&J.... very noir, very good.

[@TwindaddyCS]

You made me appreciate Graphic novels in the age of 46!! Tranks a lot! Are there any Graphic Novels regarding Aliens and UFOs?

[@lovelykali]

You give me so many great recommendations :D

[@DanielPereira-ge4uw]

Great selection. Of course we need a TOP 10 manga as well :)

[@filipvukosavovic]

yes please do the Manga list!

[@TheComicBookReport]

Great video as always Omar! I really liked Skyward, always curious about Trillium 🤔 A few here I’d never heard of this!

[@ryanlongden7330]

Tingletown is how you search Diddy's address on Google Maps

[@priyadarshikhan3975]

Do a stand alone manga video... And try to include the lesser known ones.. Love your vids btw

[@YawnMovies]

OMG! Infinite Kung Fu! It is such an underrated gem. This is the first time I am hearing anyone reviewing and recommending this gem.

[@williamjernigan2927]

Good list. I'd like to see an overview of the new artists edition of DC War just to mix it up.👍

[@coyley72]

Skyward is a standout for me. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

[@FearMonarch]

_Monsters_ is a damn monument in comics, truly a one of a kind experience I read it right around the time it dropped, and I think enough time has passed that next Halloween season I can revisit it

[@FearMonarch]

"tingle town" 🤣🤣

[@21roy_]

I just backordered From Hell and Monsters (same editions as futured here) as Christmas gifts for myself thank you Santa

[@Sharifuddin_Anwar]

You had me at Kung Fu and zombies!

[@My_ComicBook_Den]

Great list man!! I need to read that how to make a comic book.

[@dodgingcars]

I love Brubaker and Philips and really enjoyed The Fade Out, but my vote would go to Reckless (which is not a standalone, yet, but I suspect we'll see an Omnibus at some point).

[@blurjose]

Trillium is kind of a sleeper. I love it but even I forget about when thinking about my favorite books. Or even greatest Lemire books for that matter.

[@MikeF.74]

See you tomorrow Omar, I'm finally gonna be able to join a live stream!!

[@melovibes616]

Dead Romans and The Last Mermaid were pretty cool as well.

[@JoeLovesComics]

Yeah The Last Mermaid is one of my favourite series of the year.

[@AbidasultanaAkhi-h2y]

Yo bro I LOVE COMICS!!!

[@hugomon3]

I'm only missing 4 of those in my collection. The other 6 are great so that's all the confirmation I needed to hunt down the other 4.

[@litewait633]

The Long Halloween is the Best Batman comic. The story, the art, entire package.

[@stephentheshywarrior2759]

Watching now and some good choices already. I have heard nothing but good things about Monsters, the art looks incredible. I keep meaning to pick this beauty up. Long Halloween is definitely a solid story, personally I enjoyed Dark Victory even more. 👍

[@sharebear421]

Most wanted deluxe edition manga series would be a dope video. Any other cool series like that infinite kungfu? Sounds like a cross between blade of the immortal and big trouble in little China which sounds utterly awesome

[@Vitalhunter222]

I loved asterios polyp, also for image, 8 billion genies and I read decorum recently, that was pretty good 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@KevanArt]

Your advice please, of all graphic novels, which one would be best to read with beginner English speakers? The pictures give context which is key, the subject should be fairly non violent and safe for school. I welcome your direction. I am new to the genre.

[@madlynx1818]

The whole run of Ghost Rider 2099 just came out in graphic novel. I have them all in individual from when they were putting them out and the art by Chris Bachallo I remember to be amazing. I don’t think I read every one of them, I don’t remember but I’d sure like to see you review it and hear your opinion. Great video, I just bought Monsters on Amazon. I never heard of it but have loved Barry Windsor-Smith for decades, from back in his Conan days. Thanks

[@maverator]

I hope the reprint The Fade Out deluxe edition.

[@MrZinjero]

With a better binding...

[@thisjustincomics]

The Autumnal and I Walk With Monsters have both been underrated gems as far as what I’ve read recently. I’ve read a LOT recently, but both are comics I’ll be re-reading frequently. The Autumnal is not only a fantastic read for the spooky month (yeah I know I’m a month late), but also a fantastic read for the fall season as a WHOLE. The atmosphere alone should have earned The Autumnal AT LEAST an Eisner nomination. One of the most unique comics I’ve read in a LONG TIME. I Walk With Monsters is also just a fun read too that I never lost my interest in for even a SECOND. And of COURSE Beneath The Trees Where Nobody Sees, and I’ll just leave it at that as everyone must go in blind for BTTWNS

[@erickramirez6772]

I’ve been waiting for a reprint of the fade out deluxe edition for what feels like an eternity: (

[@francoisdemorcy5084]

Long Halloween is great. Love Two-Face.

[@MrPsanterIsBack]

I enjoyed reading The Fade Out, From Hell and the Batman one.

[@SolidK9]

Every time I see the fade out deluxe edition I.m so sad I can't find it 😭

[@Goldmouf_leor]

FRONTIER by Guillarme Singelin. BANGER of a magnetic press book. A not so distant future sci fi book with an undercurrent of wholesomeness. Maybe my favorite read of the year

[@sfgoogle1963]

If I could only have one graphic novel to keep and read, it would be The Long Halloween. Best I've read.

[@bernielockard1827]

Have you read 8 billion genies? One of my fav reads in 2024

[@Chandasouk]

got a new superman blue sweater?!

[@conradlouis2746]

I would love a best stand-alone manga list!

[@leighbomaya]

Tinkletown :)

[@TNewsh]

I just bought The Road...that is a graphic novel that is worth buying.

[@Yellowblam]

‘A History of Violence’ by John Wagner. I read that in one sitting.

[@drsoe08]

No mention of The Road?

[@Kor33Com]

Cool list. Miss the Black Hole by C.Burns, My Friend Dahmer and Pride of Baghdad.

[@kyywii]

Received a factory defective omnibus from a pre-order, max is refusing to let me exchange it... stay AWAY from CGN. I was a loyal customer and I've bought more than 50 omnis from them just in the past 3 months and never complained once, even on items damaged during shipping and this is how they treat their customers

[@trishb.6398]

I think you are on the wrong type of video.

[@TheWisestWizards]

I've been wanting to read The Incal, but I thought it was not at all stand-alone?

[@dennisflood7246]

Side Effects by Ted Anderson & Tara O'Conner I think is a great graphic novel.

[@geoffdavies4892]

3 I don't own, 2 I'll have to check out, (big questions and infinite kung fu). Could not get into trillium Lemires always hit and miss for me.

[@jaskoka8108]

No new announcements? Sad(

[@Dumballa]

Trillium 😁

[@2.zef.758]

I like comic.

[@rohitkumarsahu5776]

These are great, no need to put manga on these list

[@marcelo-ramos]

Easier way to avoid the "actually" people is to not use the term graphic novel for this. You can just say ""collected edition" instead. This is "the house of collected editions", isn't it? 😉.

[@21roy_]

10:48 SPOILER!

[@CaptainTDMV]

The incal is so boring though. It's just carried by the art

[@benja6902]

Monsters was terrible.

[@mattthompson3371]

I think you are in the minority and that's okay.

[@James-ip7zk]

Man, the incal is kind of unreadable 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@RodrigoSanchez-ry7hr]

well many people must've read it, seeing how it has influenced all scifi movies/books/comics that came after it!

[@mattthompson3371]

I think you have a very unpopular opinion. All good though.
