What Are the Best Comics To Give A Non-Comic Reader? Here Are A Few Suggestions.


In this episode I am covering a topic that is discussed frequently among me and my comic reading friends. What is a good entry into comics for someone who has never read one before? What book should they first read to understand the format better? I have a few ideas of my own for books that are great starting points as well as being just plain great stories.

Here are the books mentioned for anyone who would like to find any of the books mentioned in the episode.

Y: the Last Man by Brian K. Vaughn and Pia Guerra
