I am trying to convince Sol to get into Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, what all do you guys have to say to him?

It's fucking awesome. It's has some of the best fights I've ever seen in a manga, really well thought-out and not just power-level contests: the winners are often, if not always, the smarter ones. It has an amazing gallery of characters, all very different. The cast of each arc is downright amazing, reaching One Piece-levels of originality and crazy designs and powers. Each arc is also very different from the previous one (Arc 1 is Hokuto no Ken on acid, Arc 2 has a shonen training arc, Arc 3 changes the series upside down, Arc 4 has a murder mystery, etc, etc), so it never becomes stale. It has an unique and iconic style, some downright memetic elements, it's just... Great.
The first arc of the manga is pretty shit though (it's old and cliché), so either don't read it or be patient. It offers good backstory for the second and third act.

Might sound wierd but Id even suggest starting him on Part 3. It offers a pretty decent recap and tends to pick up a little quicker in the beginning. Worked for me at least.

It took me a long time to realize it is stuffed with music references.

So I just watched Gundam Unicorn ep. 5. And loved it ofcourse, even though the fights weren't as action heavy as previous ones. Now I just really need to see the last one. I do so very much want to see and hear more of Full Frontal. It's very enjoyable to listen to him talk.
