My Top 10 Favourite "Left-field" Graphic novels!
Some of my favourite books that are a bit different from the norm. Some of my inclusions will surprise a few as they aren't universally popular, but hey if we all liked the same things....
List items
-
I love this book! Its only small but a well written story of how Wonder Woman must slay the dragon and take out all her JL colleagues on the way and yes Batman gets a slap!
-
By Geoff Johns, Volume 1 is a great origin story with Captain Marvel re-imagined and re-named.
-
Superman story with a difference..imagine finding out you really were Superman! Very touching and very different Superman book.
-
Controversial one this, as many Batfans hate Geoff Johns work but I love this different take on the origin story and being a brit, the bad arsed grisly ex Royal Marine Alfred is much appreciated!
-
Wow! the re-imagined New 52 Captain Atom is a powerful guy and this is a great story showing our mis-understood hero against the military and fighting alongside the Flash. What a shame the series was canned.
-
This is on another of my lists, but is definitely a "left-field" Wolverine book, with dinosaurs, ageing heroes and lots of Hulks!!
-
Bruce Jones run on Hulk is generally not well remembered but there is something about the art and detective element to this story that I really like!
-
Not the most famous Flash story, but a great action packed adventure with Bart Allen, a story that got me into the Flash
-
Gail Simone wrote some great WW books and this is my favourite. Packed with action including an epic battle with Power Girl!
-
Not the most famous GL book, but a great little story with Hal Jordan teaming up with Batman..an uneasy relationship at first, but it works and a great clash with Mongul Jr and Mongal, the sister!
