I love graphic novels, but I have a lot of ideas for a collection of graphic short stories. What are some good examples of it? I want to get an idea of the format, layout and that type of thing.
Well there is the collection of Grim fairy tales.
They’re a collection of short stories based off old childrens stories with a twist you could say. It would help if you had an overall theme to them or some sort of link between comics. That way people can pick them up without having to read any others and they could stand on their own but if people become avid readers there is something to follow.
One book of graphic short stories that’s really good is “Dead High Yearbook”. The stories are separate but connected too: they center around kids who meet unfortunate ends in a high school. The artwork in each story is great. Here’s a link with more info on the book:
