I love when people take their time to actually show the art of the graphic novels other than just talk about the summary. Great recommendations, Jesse ;)
The fuck do you read at a pace? 3 seconds per page? Your suposed to slowly enjoy it. Sure some might take like an hour to finish, but they defentlt don't take 5 minutes.... Unless it's like 20 pages...
Dragoner Productions they obviously don’t actually read them in five minutes. they just mean they read them really quickly, like if you say “we’ve been here for forever” you haven’t actually been there for forever, you just say it to make a point.
I once got a graphic novel before the school day started and almost finished before school was over they are quick reads but they are amazing my friends are like how do you read that fast
Nimona was soooo good!!! I wanted to go through it slowly since like you said it doesn't take much time to read a graphic novel and I wanted it to last a while. Next thing I knew I was finished with it! I'm glad I bought it though because I know it's one I'll reread or at least look at the drawings for (especially when she's a shark with boobs, that had me rolling on the floor)
I am so glad I picked "The Gigantic Beard that was Evil" at a random thriftshop in the free books pile last Summer. I just read it during the Booktubeathon and LOVED it
I loved how u reviewed them cause I seen a lot of Graphic Novels Reviews without showing any of the pages this was an amazing review video in my opinion! 😀
UGHHHHH YEESSS! Where was this video a week ago when I was looking for a graphic novel rec list for my book buying binge. Ah well, next time!! Got me some good New 52 at least
PLEASE READ ALAN MOORES. GRAPHIC NOVELS (watchmen, v for vendetta, the saga of the swamp thing, a league of extraordinary gentlemen and ofc the killing JOKE) u will NOT REGRET IT
ITCHY GINGI EVERYTHING ALAN MOORE IS AMAZING! Re-reading Watchmen atm because it is amazing. Promethea and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen are great too! Really want to get my hands on a copy of the Killing Joke too! I think I read it from the library a while back, but love having his graphic novels. Another really in depth one I read was From Hell, all about Jack the Ripper. So coooooool! Really gory though.
+ITCHY GINGI Watchmen is fantastic.I found V for Vendetta a little boring thou interesting.Swamp Thing was a really nice read.Havent read League of Extraordiary Gentleman yet.The Killing Joke is a classic and i love it.From Hell is really good(Thou the graphic style is not of my taste).
Also, pretty much every one you mentioned was already on my Amazon wish list but it's cool to have a video with descriptions all in one place! now I can come back to this when I want a reminder and what to see which one I should pick up next! :D
I left a comment on your last video asking for this & you answered! Thanks so much Jesse! The next time I go to the library I'm definitely gonna check for some of these :)
Amulet is really beautiful. I just completed Locke & Key which absolutely blew my mind. So excellent - but definitely scary. Also, it's probably obvious, but Neil Gaiman's Sandman series is transcendent.
I checked out Through The Woods from the library a while ago and I couldn't even get through the last few stories. I actually got to the point where I just got super uncomfortable even having it in my house and took it back right away. If you are into that kind of thing it definitely messes with your mind! but I totally agree that, if you can (my library doesn't have the best selection), getting them from the library before you invest is a good idea!
I read my first graphic novel this month which was Maus by Art Spiegelman. I absolutely loved it!! I was actually lured into the graphic novels section of Waterstones by The Gigantic Beard that was Evil but ended up taking an interest in Maus (as I love learning about the Holocaust and the Third Reich) and it did not disappoint! Spiegelman tells the story of his father's survival of the Holocaust with such abject honesty, it makes you feel sad, shocked and even laugh at times. I would highly recommend it if you haven't read it yet
I'm currently reading "Nimona". I'm having so much fun... wouldn't have known about if you hadn't mentioned it in one of your videos so thank you veeeeery much. :D
i remember back then when i was still in high schooler in my 8th grades i just found and used to read the “Amulet” book in library during in peaceful evening while waiting my parents to pick me up after school
Flight is also a great series of graphic novels that include different illustrators' stories into one book. There are currently 7 volumes and the artists are very diverse and I personally love them all.
This is just the video I was looking for! I got "Through the Woods" at the VidCon book swap. I just finished it and loved it! It was my second graphic novel and I was kind of like "Cool! Loved that. Now what do I read?!" So thank you! This is Perfect!
I'm not a big graphic novel reader. Actually, I don't even think I've read a single graphic novel in my life. At least not that I remember. Thanks for the recommendations! I don't know when I'll be able to get to them all but if I ever want to, at least I know where to start. Although, I just heard that they're turning TMI into a graphic novel series (since I've already read the series) so I might try those.
I read Amulet recently and I really liked it! It was different to what I was expecting but it was a super fun read :D I just got In Real Life and Nimona and I'm looking forward to reading them! They sound like fun :) I love Seconds! Such an awesome read and the art style was amazing!
This is just the video I needed. I've been meaning to get into graphic novels but had no idea where to start. I've had Nimona in my amazon wishlist for a while now but haven't bought it yet because, as you've said, graphic novels are expensive! Great recommendations!
i liked the video because it you showed different graphic novels then the most usual i've seen, but i didn't exactly liked those ones still really nice of you picking them!
Graphic novels are awesome! Great video! I've read "the Amulet" and I currently have "In real life" on my desk. Looking extra forward to Reading it now.
Explorer's honestly sounds exactly like a NAPLAN thing we had to do (if you don't know what that is- its' a standardized testing method in Australia- part of it is being given something to write about)
You should check out the Island series! I really enjoy them! It's more of an adult graphic novel but I really enjoy the varying art styles as each volume contains different stories.
I'll be checking out all of these. I have read Anya's Ghost. I give it a 3.5 out 5 mostly because I felt like there should have been more. Some of the side story lines were just sorta dropped without any real or satisfying resolutions. I was just left wanting more - not in the good way like with the Harry Potter series but it felt a bit unfinished. Like it should have been at least 10 pages longer.
I just tossed Amulet on my wishlist because it sounds awesome. And I did love Spiderwick Chronicles and I've had my eye on Through the Woods for a while, but I think I'm gonna wait until October to read it since I'm only reading horror lit for the whole month. :)
This video is great! Im so glad I could hear about some graphic novels you really enjoyed since I've been wanting to pick some up recently!;) I just read The Lightning Thief graphic novel and had a fun time with that, so I will definitely be picking up more in the future (especially some of the ones you mentioned=D)
Totally gonna try to read a couple of these! Although the first one I wanna try out is the Legend graphic novel since Legend by Marie Lu is my fave book like ever
