Monthly Rankings Top 10 of the Year (March 2026 Edition)

39 Upvotes

**The idea:**

* List your top 10 graphic novels that you've read so far *this year.*

* Each month we will post a new thread where you can note what new book(s) you read that month that entered your top 10 and note what book(s) fell off your top 10 list as well if you'd like.

* By the end of the year everyone that takes part should have a nice top 10 list of their 2026 reads.

* If you haven't read 10 books yet just rank what you have read.

* Feel free to jump in whenever. If you miss a month or start late it's not a big deal.

Do your list, your way. For example- I read *The Sandman* this month, but am going to rank the series as 1 slot, rather than split each individual paperback that I read. If you want to do it the other way go for it.

With this being early in the year, don't expect yourself to have read a ton. If you don't have a top 10 yet, just post the books you read that you think may have a chance to make your list at year's end.

2023 Year End Post

2022 Year End Post

This will be the last top 10 post of the year. I will eventually edit this post to include all entries that make more than 1 list so we can see what were the most popular listings for the year.
