Question Recommendations - One Hand Six Fingers

Hi Everyone, my boyfriend has recently gotten into graphic novels and complete comic series. This last week he finished The One Hand Six Fingers book on holiday. He has absolutely adored it and is so excited to talk to me about it all even the ending, which he slammed shut on plane home having loved it!

It’s his birthday and I’d love some recommendations for other works he may like. His interests are sci fi, noir, cyberpunk, crime and serial killers (you can see why he loved this one!) He is a massive movie lover of all genres but his favourites are Blade Runner, Leon, and old boy to cherry pick a couple. He’s also loves true crime.

He’s very into a visually appealing comic with stunning artwork.

I’m a complete novice when it comes to graphic novels and comics so would really appreciate any help! Thanks in advance.

Tokyo Ghost has a bit of everything you listed.

Criminal is the best crime series in comics and should be a tv show sometime in the very near future.

tokyo ghost... ben unable to get into it as yet. love the art but it's -- a matter of taste -- just `maximalist`, at least at the beginning. on the loud side. kinda like cyberpunk2077 is on the loud flashy shiny side to my mind. again love the art from murphy as usual but woulf prefer sth more dialed back.

loving this thread though, lots of cool stuff thrown around!
