When I as a kid I used to read comics quite a lot, even though I never got any special degree of insight about their true quality. These days I mostly read an old collection of comic srtips (Calvin & Hobbes being my favorite) as well as other local ones that are published on the local newspapers (my favorite one being Trino).
Commanderraf: Being that you are a fellow Mexican, do you think that you can give me advice about a good way to start reading comic books again? |
Aries: It's coming soon. Within the next month or two for sure.
Poxpower: You have NO idea, dude. Roger is right. I could own my own island by now. But what would I have to READ on the island without comics?? Tetsu Deinonychus: I was reading Superman/Batman for a while (probably the first 30 issues) but I lost interest in it sometime after that and dropped it. Too many crappy stories in a row. KanyonKreist: Go back and give Iron Fist another chance. Seriously. The book hasn't lost ANY momentum at all since Brubaker and Fraction left. Relaxing Dragon: Yep, the last issue of 100 Bullets came out the same day this article posted. Great book. Not quite sure about the ending though. hisholiness: I have to admit that I've not yet checked out The Walking Dead. I read a shitload of comics but that is one I've not checked out yet. I've heard lots of good things though. MallardMan: Booster Gold almost made my list, but I think it'd be pretty inaccessible to someone unfamiliar with the DC Universe. And I had to draw a line somewhere. I read the current Jonah Hex book for about the first 20 issues or so, but I had to drop it because I was spending too much money. Might start trade collecting that one though. Nick and Icculus: Believe me, I hear ya. I'm starting to trade wait for some books (like Conan) now myself. I like to support the industry as much as I can though, so I buy a lot of issues monthly and then I sell them on eBay later and then swap out for the trades. Some books I sell over what I paid, some under, but on the whole I think I break fairly even. Thanks to everyone for the feedback. I hope you check out some of those books and that you aren't disappointed! |

And, I Luv Halloween is so wrong it's right! Quote:
Of course, all the sexy sci-fi-girl paintings you mentioned don't hurt, either. ;) |

As for Heavy Metal, gods, I haven't leafed through one of those seriously since I was in college. Now and then, I'll flip through them to check out the art, but lately nothing past the covers has really grabbed me. |
Outside of my hatred for that Godless Femi-nazi Joss Whedon, I dig just about all of these right now.
also, I throw X-factor along with Captain Britain and MI13 in there as well. |
I got a girlfriend so I had to unsubscribe to all but two series. I wish you made this article when I could buy more than just Deadpool and The Sword.

Why does having a girlfriend mean you had to drop all those comics?
Is she telling you what to read? |
Could be that Credo's spending most of the comic money on her *laughs* At least, I hope that's the case and she's not making you give up comics.

Kudos, on mentioning Buffy. The comic is great and the TV show is untouchable.
Copper: As for the Buffy, I will admit to not recognizing Xander at first, but it was a pleasant surprise. 'Cause of the numerous other characters who wear any eye patch? :p |
Well done on a damn fine list Proto! I can not thank you enough for including Fables as part of your list, and I'd add onto that the series that took off from Fables, Tales of Jack
