comic books vs graphic novels
Recommend a graphic novel for me?
I just got done reading the Watchmen. this was my first graphic novel (i never even read comic books). I’m looking for a new one to read now and was hoping someone could recommend one. I was looking at V for Vendetta.
Prisoner of Birth by Jeffrey Archer is the most interesting book that I’ve read in a long while. I have yet to find a book as good.
