My kind of graphic novels

Hat tip to mental_floss for linking this post from the Guardian and its accompanying graphic created by Information is Beautiful.
Guardian writer David McCandless gives some insight on where the data come from: "Do Top 100 Books polls and charts agree on a set of classics? I scraped the results of over 15 notable book polls, readers surveys and top 100's. Both popular and high-brow." The result is a visual display of must-read books.
