Frontier by Guillaume Singelin

What hackers pick instead

• Persepolis by Marjane SatrapiPraised as a moving, memorable graphic memoir of pre-revolution and revolutionary Iran. Critics say the second half is harder going.16recommend
• Transmetropolitan by Warren Ellis and Darick RobertsonPeople recommend this comic series for its sharp satire and how relevant its questions about technology and society remain today. No criticism recurs among those who commented.5recommend
• Logicomix by Apostolos Doxiadis and Christos PapadimitriouA gentle graphic-novel introduction to its topic that people recommend as a good read. The most common caveat is that it leaves out important material, and one critic says it invents meetings for drama.5recommend
• Gender Queer by Maia KobabeRecommended as an honest memoir of sexuality and identity that gives readers accurate information and portrays a lived experience. Critics most often say it is sexually explicit and unsuitable for young children.4recommend
• The One by Rick VeitchReaders recommend it for combining several obsessions into a coherent whole with ingenious storytelling, and one reader gave copies to friends. Few comments were found, so critics' caveats are unclear.3recommend
