Most people see "comic books" and just think of like, superheroes, but some other publishing groups have made some really big pushes and there's a lot more bigger companies than just Marvel and DC. IDW, Darkhorse, Image .. they've all got lots of cool stories in a wide variety of styles. :O
The last one I read was Space Battle Lunchtime. It's about a girl who was more or less kidnapped and has to take part in a cooking show in space. With aliens. (And gay representation!)
