Today I bring back a topic that I have been discussing every year. I share my recommendations for more Stand Alone (all in one) Graphic Novels. Books that can be read in one sitting without the trouble of continuity nor having to go and pick up another volume.

It ain't a Near Mint list without a X men recommendation🙂

@Carlos-xz3vi 7 месяцев назад

Is that X Men graphic novel collected on an uncanny x men omnibus?

@krishalay 7 месяцев назад

Thank you Brock.

@vincentimbesi3947 7 месяцев назад

He says at about 18:00 that it’s in X-men omnibus vol 3

Omar, it always amazes me how you find time to discover and read graphic novels from outside the mainstream. Also, how you maintain your love for the medium considering how much you do read. I'm thankful for your sharing of these stories.

@shinyocelot04archive 7 месяцев назад

The Twilight Man looks like fun. God Loves, Man Kills is one I've been wanting to pick up for a while.

@James-ip7zk 7 месяцев назад

Two brothers is a fantastic comic. For those who gree up reading latinamerican novels from 60-70s will notice that exhuberant spirit, chaotic family ties and intense personalities. Great recommendation Omar!

@blurjose 7 месяцев назад

Made me so happy to hear that Jeff Lemire's art is growing on you. I agree that his art would be ill-suited for most cape and cowl comics, but for his indie creative owned stuff his art fits because it leads with heart over technique. Great list,

@Omar_Little 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for this. I love stand-alones! just in time to buyt myself a christmas gift. I actually just went to look up Killing and Dying and realised I read it last year through my local library. For some reason I forgot the title but it's a great collection. I am definitely going to look up more from Tomine.

@Rtombooksart 7 месяцев назад

V for Vendetta like most Alan Moore comics is really hard to understand and requires multiple readings as well. As a lot of slang Moore uses towards the end, but it is probably my favorite Alan moore story

@vincentimbesi3947 7 месяцев назад

Another great list. I love watching these top 10 videos. It'd be great to see an updated list for the top 10 Dark Horse, IDW, & Image graphic novels

Love V for Vendetta - always have. Mind you, living in the UK is a factor !

@danaandra9735 7 месяцев назад

I've already got THE TWILIGHT MAN and re-purchased V FOR VENDETTA to give it another chance (both on your recommendation), and just ordered KILLING AND DYING and FUN HOME, two books I've been aware of for a long time but resisted buying. I knew Adrian Tomine back in his early mini-comix days, and have liked everything I've read by him since. Also bought TWO BROTHERS after reading DAYTRIPPER, and though it does look much different, it looks great. The art has hints of Jose Munoz. Overall, a great list!

@Fabulist 6 месяцев назад

Some of my favorite standalones: Ministry of Space - Warren Ellis, Chris Weston Outpost Zero - Sean McKeever, Alexandre Terenkgi Through the Woods - Emily Carroll I Kill Giants - J.M. Ken Niimura, Joe Kelly The Life Eaters - David Brin, Scott Hampton The American Way - John Ridley, Georges Jeanty The Surrogates - Robert Venditti, Brett Weldele Ghost World - Daniel Clowes The Griff - Christopher Moore, Ian Corson Motel Art Improvement Service - Jason Little Nimona - N.D. Stevenson The Park Bench - Christophe Chabouté Sentient - Jeff Lemire, Gabriel Hernandez Walta

@nozkaian 7 месяцев назад

You could say that most of the Brubaker / Philips books can be mentioned here as they release most of their stories in graphic novel format.

@komiksowyswiat7807 7 месяцев назад

@malekhine8530 7 месяцев назад

Lemire rules. Not the biggest fan of his art, but the stories he whites, oh my gosh! I think is top 5 writers in 21st century. And I love you put V from vendetta there, I find doesn't have the same love than other Moore books, but is fantastic.

I love all the indies on this list! Though I did think your list was referring to GNs that came out this year.

I watch Twilight Zone every new year's day as well thanks to the sci-fi channel marathons from back in the day. Thank you for the recommendations, never even heard of Twilight Man and I'm a huge Rod Serling fan.

@abrahamhimself 7 месяцев назад

Real question - where’d you get that X-Men hoodie from? Looks dope!

@ejfozalegre419 7 месяцев назад

Is there a difference between this year's Seconds vs the one published years back?

@GuramR1 7 месяцев назад

Didn't know about Twilight Man, definitely buying it! I'm huge fan of Twilight Zone, have the blu ray set as well. My daughter is only 2 months old, but I can't wait to introduce it to her once she's older.

@armandoasebedo1585 7 месяцев назад

Great list Omar, for me this year my favorite standalone story that I have read would have to be Do A Powerbomb by Daniel Warren Johnson, just a great story I feel you get a little more out of the story if you are a wrestling fan, but it is not necessary to enjoy this book.

@johnphilipcruz2954 7 месяцев назад

I recommend Ballad for Sophie and Always never. The best of the comic medium has to offer in my opinion.

@CarlosDias-er6dd 7 месяцев назад

V for Vendetta is one of my favorite movies of all time. I've read the comic afterwards and it didn't click. Probably I was too young as well. In the mean time I've read 1984 and now I think that the next read will be more satisfying.

How much of your collection have you actually read ?! 😲 I’m curious cuz I just watched your collection tour video and goddamn you’ve got quite the library ! 😲😲

@allanaruba 7 месяцев назад

Is the *X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills* collected in an Omnibus already? _Skipped as didn't want story spoilers_ but it's obvious a story I've heard of so could direct me with future Omnibus prioritises

@elvaquerovaquero5243 7 месяцев назад

He mentions how to get the books at the end. But Uncanny X-men Omnibus Volume 3.

I know Monsters by BWS got a little too dark by the end but reading the first two acts was quite possibly the most gripping read I've ever experienced. Sad it didn't make this list.

@NearMintCondition 7 месяцев назад

That was one of my favorite reads of 2021. I’m sure it will show up on a future list.

@mikewhiterobot 4 месяца назад

I like Bryan Lee O'Malley's artwork, but I'm not a fan of his writing. I don't find any of his characters relatable... but, that's not really a knock on him or his work, I have the same problem with people in general. I have Seconds already, but looking forward to checking out some of the other title you mentioned. Thanks for the recommends!

Sees a 2023 best graphic novel list. *Brings a cup of tea* They are just graphic novels from any year, and yes, there are super hero cr*p in it… *Leaves* BTW: Killing and dying is not a novel, they are graphic short stories…

@NearMintCondition 7 месяцев назад

Bring a beer next time and be more open minded. GLMK is a masterpiece. BTW someone should tell book stores to remove Killing and Dying from their GRAPHIC NOVEL sections!
