American comics

[(Anonymous)]

I like weird stuff that looks good and is self contained. No superheroes, ideally.

Re: American comics

[(Anonymous)]

By self contained, do you mean like 1 volume graphic novels, or just stories with a start and an end that doesn't tie in with other stuff?

Stuff that doesn't tie in with other stuff.

Re: American comics

[(Anonymous)]

Could you expand on 'weird stuff'? Do you have any comics you already like as comparison?

Re: American comics

[(Anonymous)]

Surreal color use, non-conventional plots, anything people joke about the creator being on drugs.

Ashizuri Suizokukan is a good example of what I'm talking about.

Re: American comics

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe look into Paul Pope.

Black Hole by Charles Burns is very surreal and disturbing.

Edit: Rice Boy also has a lot of surreal elements.

The Sandman comics by Neil Gaiman

Why does it have to be American??? Do you mean, not Japanese manga-style (in terms of art?), or do you mean, must be created by an American?

Re: American comics

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I should have said anything non-manga (because I already read plenty.) I'm trying to branch out, but finding stuff is intimidating.

Bitch Planet?

Ursula Vernon’s Digger is the equivalent of one fairly big book, and it’s complete and still online for free. She won a Hugo for it a few years ago, and it’s got a kind of scratchboard thing going on. Yeah, it’s got talking animals, but there are humans and undead demon gods and drunk druids, some of the characters may make you cry (I know they did me) and you should know if you like the art by 10 pages in. Vernon writes popular kids books under her real name and adult fiction as T. Kingfisher.

Maybe check out Transmetropolitan?

Seconding this! It's 60 issues flat of pure dynamite

Re: American comics

[cbrachyrhynchos]

My pull list: Saga, The Wicked and The Divine, Rat Queens, Shutter.

Lazarus looked good and is getting a film adaptation.

Heard good things about Lumberjanes but have not gotten into it yet.

Re: American comics

Oh man, I started Lazarus when someone loaned me the first trade. I meant to keep reading it, but totally forgot (I was temporarily living in the middle of nowhere for work and did not have the time or money to pursue it further).
