The Graphic Novel Bookgroup reads in as wide a range as there are literary genres. The one commonality is that they all involve stories told with the aid of pictures - sequential storytelling. Obviously, this definition does not limit the content, and, if you were to browse several graphic novels, you’d find striking variety: memoir, journalism, literary fiction, humor, experimental, abstract, underground comix, sketchbook/journaling, superhero, mainstream, manga, manwha, the list goes on.

ArtKlub is a group of friends who are local Northern Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, and Washington DC artists that meet weekly for fun, self-education and encouragement, and to obtain critiques and try vet new ideas.

If you are like me then you may have grown up on comics. We have also seen comics expand into movies, games, digital etc. Over the years, I have gone from DC to Marvel, currently a combination of both plus some new comers. DC has quite a few comics’ book stores, but they aren’t the places to sit back and discuss our experience. I suggest getting together at a local restaurant and having an open discussion on classic story lines and new/up to date material. Feel free to contact me if you have oth …

This is a group for anyone interested in all things geek. Geeks of all ages are encouraged to share their love of spaceships, wizards, and superheroes by watching movies, reading books, attending conventions, and generally encouraging nerdy behavior when at all possible! Do you have more superhero t-shirts than Sheldon? Have you personally tested the validity of the warning "Not intended for actual combat" on a lightsaber toy? Do movies with spaceships make you happier than a tribble in a bin …
Within the increasingly popular graphic novel genre, there is a fascinating subgroup of author-illustrators writing graphic memoirs and history. Whether exploring their own personal experiences or documenting the history of the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights Movement, this genre has proved to be an exciting kind of storytelling.
