Top 10 Comic Books from a Girl's Point of View
Comic Books and graphic novels - they are not just for boys!
When most people think of comic books, Batman and Superman come to mind. Images of heroes saving the world pop up in your head right? Well there is a lot more to comics then the norm. More and more women are getting hooked into the comic book scene.
For those who don't know, millions of comic books have been published. I am sure there are more great ones out there that will not make my list. There are still a ton on my 'to read' list.
I entered the comic book world when I met my husband. He dragged me to a few comic book shops and in boredom I started looking through the back issues and if I liked the way the cover looked, I bought it. I quickly learned this is a bad choice in finding a good read, but as an artist, I still do it. I can at least appreciate the front cover art, right? Anyhow.. this is my list of good reads that also have good art and even though everyone is not per-say "Girly", I think they are reads some women will find entertaining.
My list is a mixture of comic books and graphic novels, new and old. You may even have to search ebay to find some of them.
If you like to read but have never read a comic book I reccommend that you try one of the reads in my list. I don't think you will be disappointed at all!
