    Lightbulb Favourite self contained graphic novels?

    Read reviews saying Avengers: Standoff by Nick Spencer is a good standalone title.

    Any other recommendations?

    Doesn't matter which publisher.

    Good suggestions already got to second Essex County just a simple well done story. Everything Dark-Flux mentioned are all awesome reads especially New Frontier, V, and All-Star Superman.

    Will Eisner: Dropsie Avenue (1995) is an amazing work in which the main character is a New York City neighborhood which goes from farmland to mansions to multi-unit housing to tenements to condemned buildings and vacant lots and beyond over the course of a hundred years.
