Comic strip

[Van Basten II]

Recently picked up a french that talked about their alleged 100 best comic strips (bande dessinnée in french) although i prefer the expression graphic novel, which sounds more adult oriented.

Anyway, among the three top titles mentionned were Jimmy Corrigan by Chris Ware

, Maus by Art Spiegelman

and Les Bijoux de la Castafiore by Hergé.

Gotta say, the reading of the mag made me think of starting shopping for more of that stuff. I already own and enjoyed Maus, read about all the Tintin when i was a kid, so i'd like to know if anybody else has other suggestions, what they like, place where you pick up great stuff, etc.

I apologize in advance , i made a search on Crumb could not find anything and after i made a thread, i did another search with another name and found a thread talking about the subject, would you be so kind to delete this thread, i'll bump up the original thread, at least i had a clever title.
