suggest me some graphic novels.

Bone is always a yes. Even though getting the complete Bone book is cheap, I recommend the new colored versions from Scholastic. Nothing is changed except for the characters being giving an amazing amount of life akin to the colors on the covers of the original Bone editions. It is perfect, and they are $10 each, which is amazing considering how expensive TPB's are. the colored version of Old Man's Cave just came out a few months ago and the seven should be arriving soon.

Holy shit, I almost forgot Bone existed.
First I'm listening to NOFX, and now forgetting Bone, what the shit is wrong with me?

Someone already mentioned Box Office Poison, but I'll second it.
Also, if you like memoirs, but don't want to spend a lot of time on them, I'd suggest any of Jeffrey Brown's stuff. They're small, cute books and fun to read.
Also, Scott McCloud's stuff, though it's theory and not story, is good. Seriously good. Also, Will Eisner's theory stuff is good, but I find his actual writings to be just decent (if not overtly racist).

So, Love & Rockets has yet to be mentioned. This is a CRIME. If y'ain't yet read Love & Rockets, it is best to start with the recently released big ass compendiums Maggie the Mechanic and Heatrbreak Soup to give you a good look at the work of both of Los Bros Hernandez (Jaime and Gilbert, respectively). And even though they're compendiums, they're pretty cheap, like 15 USD I think. But anyways. Everyone should know and love Love & Rockets.
