- Ben Templesmith can be an acquired taste for some people. I wouldn't recommend this for someone just getting into comics.DRIFTMONKEY

generally a graphic novel is just a collection of an entire run of comics in one volume so you don't have to derp about collecting issues

looking for recommendations for graphic novels. it's something i've never really been into - but i need to study how they work.
i've already looked thru the comic book thread, but from what i can gather, a comic and a graphic novel seem to be different beasts. (perhaps i'm wrong)
also, anything that is outside of the usual character illustrations would be good. something that has it's own style. i've looked some thru the walking dead, and i like that. i've come across Maus too, that looks great.
the best example so far that i've found is Oh No! by Dan Santat - seems a very unique way of telling stories.
i'm sure i'll end up at the books store, gathering stuff on my own - but i'd appreciate any insight before i head that way - things i could look out for...
cheers.
