I have introduced comics to several of my friends and family who have thank me for showing how great comics are.
One of the best things I've done is to introduces my sister and my girlfriend into comics and they both have become big fans of as well.
So I decided since in this month is my anniversary with my girlfriend, I should make a list of all the graphic novels and weekly comics that would be great to introduce to any ladies in your life to see if you can get them interested or to a least to understand the medium.
