Your Amazon.ca Best Books (Comics) List Of 2011

imageThe 2011 best graphic novels list for the Canadian iteration of the on-line bookseller is up here. The bulk of it is the same as the Amazon.com list, with a few swap-outs here and there. It's slightly surprising, but I think I prefer the US list by a bit. In alphabetical order, the choices are:
* Green River Killer: A True Detective Story, Jeff Jensen and Jonathan Case (Dark Horse)
* Habibi, Craig Thompson (Pantheon)
* Hark! A Vagrant, Kate Beaton (D+Q)
* Joe The Barbarian: Deluxe Edition, Grant Morrison and Sean Murphy (DC Comics)
* Kill Shakespeare Vol. 2, Conor Mcreery and Anthony Del Col and Andy Belanger (IDW)
* Love And Rockets: New Stories #4, Los Bros Hernandez (Fantagraphics)
* Mister Wonderful: A Love Story, Dan Clowes (Pantheon)
* One Soul, Ray Fawkes (Oni)
* Pogo: The Complete Daily And Sunday Strips Vol. 1, Walt Kelly (Fantagraphics)
* The Death-Ray, Daniel Clowes (D+Q)
I think you're starting to see some consensus as to entry on these lists, such as Hark! A Vagrant and Habibi.
