The Scottish Prisoner, by Diana Gabaldon
Hmm, I need to reread the "Companion" to see how this fits in and to figure out...a bunch of stuff. Anyway, this is about Lord John and Jamie going to Ireland to stop an Irish plot to restart the rebellion that ended at Culloden. A bit silly, but the story is less important than John and Jamie equalizing their relationship. This is also prior to John's marriage, so Jamie is still living at Helwater as the (paroled) prisoner of the title.

The Exile : An Outlander Graphic Novel, by Diana Gabaldon ; illustrated by Hoang Nguyen
This is only the first third or so of the first book in the Outlander series, but it's quite interesting to see how the story changes a bit when it's told only in pictures, and more from the third-person point of view. Or maybe it's supposed to be Jamie's point of view. Still. Jamie=adorable. Claire=more annoying in pictures than text. Warning: must be able to 'read' tartans to follow the story coherently.
