7 - X-Men Days Of Future Past
Several decades into the future, we find that the world has become a dystopian nightmare. Hatred and fear of mutants has infested the government, which has created the sentinel robots whose purpose is to hunt and eliminate all mutants. Many of the X-Men have already been killed, along with the Fantastic Four. Can the surviving mutants travel back in time to stop the event that led to this authoritarian regime?
6 - Maus
Art Spiegelman wrote and illustrated this story based on his parent’s life experiences. This biographical story of surviving the violent, fascist government in Germany is depicted through mice representing Jews and cats representing the Nazis. In the story, Art’s father recounts the details of living through Auschwitz, like he had done in real life.
5 - V For Vendetta
After nuclear war destroyed much of the world, the totalitarian political party Norsefire has taken over the UK. An escaped prisoner known as V enacts a plan of vengeance against his former captors, while also exposing the corruption of the police state. With the help of his new friend Evey, they influence an anarchist revolt against the government.
4 - Civil War: Captain America/Iron Man
After the U.S. government deems superheroes too dangerous, Tony Stark proposes a compromise that would force all superpowered people to register with the government and follow orders from elected officials. But Steve Rogers does not trust politicians and opposes the registration act. For this he becomes a wanted fugitive. One by one every superhero in the Marvel universe must decide whose side they are on.
3 - On Tyranny
This more recent graphic novel explores what led to the various authoritarian governments of the 20th century. It describes what the warning signs were, and how to defend freedom against tyranny. And it causes one to consider if we are seeing the warning signs now in the 21st century.

Current developing reality in front of our very eyes (and deep in our pockets) is far more interesting and instructive than any kind of genre-related fiction ... 🤣🤣🤣
In a decade (or well before) anybody who still knows what a pen can be used for, may be able to write his own, totally based on personal experience ...
