Read Comic Online

He 1980s saw an explosion in the popularity of graphic novels, especially in the use of the term itself to apply to anything other than your typical superhero comic. And while purists can (and do, vociferously) debate the relevance and meaning of the phrase, there’s no doubt that the spread of graphic novels has allowed for the telling of nuanced and personal tales that used to be almost nonexistent in comics. The lengthy comic books on this list are sharply observed autobiographical works that blend humor and heartbreak with unique artistic skill, turning each book into a special experience. Comic books let the authors slide between literal representations of their lives and surreal, emotion-driven images that evoke everything from love to longing, and these books are true works of art.
