How to Get Into Comic Books (13:40) | Patrick Willems
Consider your intent/commitment. Think about your favorite shows, movies, books, etc. Reading primarily for enjoyment or encyclopedic knowledge? Collecting? Have the time/resources to read 50 or 500 comics per character?
Don’t try to read everything at once. There’s too much. Forget about catching up, continuity, universes, etc. for now. Older comics can be an acquired taste for modern audiences, so they aren’t necessarily ideal starting points. Writers change often, characters get re-worked, and origins are re-told. Remember, there are many great characters, creators, publishers, etc. to explore.
Pick an interesting character/team and seek their most popular/acclaimed stories. Focus on self-contained, complete stories in one corner of the universe. There will be unexplained references/characters, just persevere or Wiki. Don’t let the tangled web of shared-universe comics overwhelm you. Think of it like solving a jigsaw puzzle one small piece at a time until you finally see the big picture.
Discover your preferences and let them guide you. Don’t get stuck preparing/over-analyzing, just start reading. Do you like/dislike old/new comics? Specific writers/genres? Cartoony/realistic art? Familiar/weird concepts? References/self-contained? All-ages/mature content? Follow these instincts. Didn’t understand a reference? Maybe read that next.
Acquire/Buy comics:
Marvel
DC
You can skip to the 2016 re-launch with DC Universe: Rebirth and then any Rebirth series #1.

The artist for Saga, Fiona Staples, has an online store with some cool prints.
Both Saga and Y are written by Brian K Vaughan. He has a new series, Paper Girls, which has been well received. He also has nice hardcover of his webcomic Private Eye.
Comic book suggestion: Paper Girls by Brian K. Vaughn
As a girl with a burgeoning comic collection featuring a lot of female leads, I would HIGHLY recommend the Wonder Woman run by Brian Azzarello & Cliff Chiang (starting here).
Also if she's looking for something with more of an indie vibe, I'd recommend Pretty Deadly by Kelly Sue DeConnick, and if she likes the Stranger Things trend in pop culture nowadays absolutely Paper Girls by Brian K Vaughan.
If she's a YA fan, I'd reccomend Spera by Josh Tierney. And if she really wants a taste of Marvel, and likes YA fiction, I'd also recommend Ms. Marvel.
I've read Fables, and it's pretty good, but I gotta say there is SO much that it might be intimidating for a first-time comic reader. I also love Saga, but again there is just SO much, it might be better to start with a shorter run or a one-off.
Paper Girls by Brian K. Vaughn is pretty interesting!

I couldn't really find anything on your list so I will suggest that if you like video games Mirror's Edge Catalyst your strong female woman in the future who the Free Runner I think it should be on everyone list (This can be found on my most wanted list)
I'm suggesting this for you. you should definitely read this since you're huge Once Upon a Time fan I will suggest a comic fables It takes place after all of the fairy tales have been exiled from their homeworld only to be thrust into the city of new york
Also while I'm suggesting things you might like here's another book [paper girls](https://smile.amazon.com/Paper-Girls-1-Brian-Vaughan/dp/1632156741/ref=pd_bxgy_14_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=1632156741&pd_rd_r=MAPPK6XEG1AY0H60G7YE&pd_rd_w=QQ0gA&pd_rd_wg=omwOK&psc=1&refRID=MAPPK6XEG1AY0H60G7YE
) Just take my word for it me just giving you a synopsis for it would just ruin it
