Where and how do you people read graphic novels?? Whenever I try to do that I have to smoothen out my wallet. I am a student paise nahi hotey hain humare paas.

Haven't seen them at Craxme, maybe due to the size. Have a few print ones. The ebooks are a pain to read.
Last week I read this year's Booker longlist includes a graphic novel. Finally!

Ummm, just like other books you can find them online as well. Check out the Graphic Novels genre in oceanofpdf, though there aren't any Indian graphic novels over there.
I usually don't mind spending on graphic novels because I love reading and looking at the art again and again. I'm also a sucker for picture books. I buy loads of 'em.

Yeah, on an average they're over 50MB in size. Readign it online is not a patch on holding the physical book, but the prices of graphic novels are just too high... so I've been checking out a few of the online versions. I'll buy those that are really impressive,

Which book is included in the Booker's list, btw?

Ditto on reading them online. Just does not have the same charm. The book is Nick Drnaso's Sabrina. Haven't read that one, though.

Shivani, Mobilism also has a few but most are children's books.

Oh, I haven't read or heard of it... but it's published by Drawn & Quarterly! I got this book '25 Years of Drawn & Quarterly' recently... I'll check if there's an excerpt in it.

Oceanofpdf is really good for finding all the popular American graphic novels and a few British and Japanese artists. Some of them are seriously good. And I found a gem by a Japanese artist called 'Uzumaki'. The illustrations are manga style, not something I particularly dig, but it's a horror story and I loved it.

I had checked the Sabrina preview at Goodreads. The artwork is 'dull' to put it politely.... not impressed.

Just looked up Oceanofpdf. It definitely has some great content. Thanks for sharing . Will check out Uzumaki.
