Comics and graphic novels are incredibly popular, but if you've never cracked one open yourself, it can be hard to know where to start. These days, we're spoiled for choice; there are so many awesome ones by and about women, online and in print, and in every genre and format imaginable. Check out some top picks below to get started.

Graphic novels are one of the fastest growing categories in publishing and bookselling. As the U. Although still mostly targeted at youth, graphic novels are increasingly of interest to an expanded audience, which includes many adults. Narratives composed out of visual images or out of images and words have a very long history — a history that stretches back to the first cave paintings. In their combination of text and image they are closest to another major 20th century medium — film.
