Please do not allow yourself to think of these as comic books for adults. They have gone far beyond that. My favorite G.N.'s are:

Anything, and everything, by Georges Pichard,

Especially his Magnum Opus 'Marie-Gabrielle de Saint-Eutrope' (1977) (ISBN 1-56163-138-8) which illustrates the ordeals of a beautiful, and voluptuous, woman who accidentally shoots her nobleman husband and is sentenced to fifteen years hard labor, mostly while nude. This is superb BDSM Erotica!

Other works by Pichard include:
'Madoline'(1996) Parts 1 & 2, and
'The Road to Repentance' (1992) although this is much less erotic than most.

Another great master of the genre is Brian Tarsis with his masterpiece 'City of Dreams, a Tale of Erotic Fantasy' (1996) (ISBN 1-56097-224-6) which is the graphic novel version of the 'Beauty Trilogy' and one of the best-drawn graphic novels ever.

Another excellent set of works for the Bi-sexual world is;

'The Spider Garden' (1995)

'Lumenagerie' (1996)

'Cathexis' (1997)

'In a Metal Web (2003) & 'In a Metal Web II' (2003)
These are set in a magical fantasy world styled much like extreme Japanese erotic fetish creations.

A magnificent addition to the field of lesbian BDSM is 'The Thorn Garden' (1997) by Meroe Elahi and Wilfred (ISBN 1-56097-293-9). It involves a young woman seeking her first experience with 'Fisting'.

And let us not forget the classic works by Eric Stanton; 'Blunder Broad' which, interestingly enough, has the text in three languages; English, Italian and French. (ISBN 88-8275-028-0 & 88-8275-029-9) Blunder Broad is a flawed Super Hero who meets her match and has to endure very intimate assaults intended to break her spirit.

Lastly is the somewhat incomprehensible quasi-sci-fi story 'Birdland' (1990) (ISBN 1-56097-200-9) by Gilbert Hernandez. This story is too bizarre even to summarize, but is wildly erotic even though it is not truly a BDSM story.

Unfortunately, many of these are no longer in print but you can always add them to your Wishlist in BookMooch. I might even add them to my Inventory there, but these are so good and valuable that I may consider selling them instead.

Oh boy, folks, please fill up this thread. One of my local shops is having a 25% off sale all weekend and there are just so many Vertigo titles I can buy...

Enjoyed Birdland as well.

This is an enormous field, with lots of great stuff from all graphic novel traditions worldwide, but personal favorites are the Royal Gentlemen Club series by 'Nicky' and anything by Art Wetherell

. . and how could I have forgotten Leone Frollo? Sadly little in English, but, even without the dialogue, the imagery is wonderful, and the albums are readily available through amazon.fr or ebay.
