If it's Graphic Novels he wants, Astronaut Academy by Dave Roman is great. Giants Beware and Dragons Beware by Jorge Aguirre is also wonderful. He's also a big fan of Calvin and Hobbes.

For hybrid - novels with lots of pictures: My child really enjoys the Middle School series by James Patterson

The Wayside School books, if he's willing to branch out from comic books.

From the graphic novel/comic stand point, he might Calvin and Hobbes.

As a kid, I enjoyed the Half Magic series:
https://www.amazon.com/Tales-Magic-Boxed-Edward-Eager/dp/0152025464/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1465612122&sr=1-2&keywords=half+magic

It's about kids who find a magic coin, but it only gives you "half" of what you wish for. They have to figure it out and go on all kinds of adventures.
