What comics do you read?
i was just wondering what comics that everyone reads? other than tmnt, of course...
here's mine (not in order of preference): 2000ad judge dredd megazine the walking dead flaming carrot shaolin cowboy planet of the apes allstar batman and whatever else tickles my fancy! |
To add a bit of fun, I ask everyone to include what makes them read the comic books.
Anyways, I read lots and lots of comic books, but I'll just name my current favourites.
|
I read everything I can put my fingers on. Doesn't make much difference to me if it's European, American or Japanese stuff. I only purchase quite a small fraction of what I've actually read - mainly European comics and American graphic novels, I'd say.
Why I read this silly stuff? Dunno... maybe because it combines both literature and graphical art. And I dig both of them. |
nothing else

I read: Fables: AWESOME AWESOME series!! Im glad tho they're not going overboard after it was revealed who the big bad is... Can't wait to see Bigby again! :evilgrin: All the Decimation related comics (it's a marvel thing) Ant V2: I don't think they even made a vol 1.. :ohwell: Infinite Crisis (which is almost over...) One Year Later (uh..the after effects of Infinite Crisis...which is a bit odd they actually release this before I.C was even over..meh ah well) Spiderman Loves Mary Jane: At this point not really but M.J sure has the majors for him New Avengers: Oh the comedy.... The Pulse Marvel Zombies: Brains! Nextwave: Fin Fang Foom put you in his pants. Black Panther V4: They just saved a Katrina ravaged New Orleans from Vampires... Ares: Never mess with the god of war's son.. Hard Time: Prison is weird All Star Batman and Robin: He's the god damned Batman! Batman Year 100: The year is 2039. Who are these people? I mean really? Capt. Gordon is the grandson of Comissioner Gordon... no clue who everyone else is. Marvel Manga-verse: Welcome to a universe where Wolverine and Cyclops are brothers...seriously... |

Mine's very short...
Teen Titans (I wait for the tradepaperbacks to come out though, so I'm always behind on what's happening.) Angel Sanctuary (beautiful manga with a deep plot. Tons of character development and the plot is wild! It can get very confusing, but most of the questions get answered over time.) |
The only thing I currently Follow is Supergirl. I figure I've said why before so I dont need to again ;)
|
Buckaroo Banzai: I picked up the preview copy of this a couple months ago and I wanted more. I feel asleep watchin' the movie, but I'll try to watch it again one of these days.
Marvel Milestones: This Marvel anthology that comes out bi-monthly or whatever is somethin' I'd perfer over an Uitmate Spider-Man or most current Marvel titles. This comic collects older Marvel stories like the origin of Iron Man or reprints somethin' like Secret Wars #8. Even though this one kindy pricey, I figure it's worth it cuz I would normally hafta pay top dollar on eBay for an original copy of Secret Wars #8. The last issue I bought cost five bucks, but it was a little over ninety pages. Army of Darkness: I'm really enjoyin' this series and the third miniseries has recently ended. This comic has went through a lot of changes and it hasn't been around that long. I like how this comic takes elements from the Evil Dead Trilogy and expands on it by addin' new characters and story arcs. The next miniseries "Old School" looks like it'll be great and it takes place between the events of Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness or somethin' like that. I just hope it keeps exceedin' my expectations and makes me wanna keep readin' it. |
My comic book reading is not as consistant as most. I usually wait for a series to come out in TPB form to read it. I don't do the periodic visit to the comic book store anymore. I try to make it to get new issues, but it's hard.
Anyhoo, a list of current publications I'm reading are:
And here is a list of non-publicated books I keep reading even though they're old:
|
Runaways (Best....comic....ever)
Young Avengers New Avengers Cable/Deadpool She-Hulk The Thing X-Factor Astonishing X-Men Marvel team-Up Amazing Spider-Man (just started with last issue) Y: The Last Man Ex Machina Ant Invincible The Walking Dead TMNT vol.4 Tales of the TMNT Mini's: Lost Squad Fury: Peacemaker Sgt. Rock: The Prophecy Beast Wars GI Joe/ Transformers Marvel Zombies Sentinel X-Men: Apocalypse vs. Dracula I'm probably forgetting a few titles, but that's basically it. |
Amazing spider-man
knights spider-man Nextwave(Fin Fang Foom put you in pants) Dare-devil Captain america Cable/deadpool new avengers the thing young avengers amazing fantasy Punisher Max Iron-man Moon Knight Increable Hulk X-men (Astonishing uncanny and adjestless and new) WOLVERINE coming soon Civil War WOLVERINE: ORIGINS ANNIHILATION |
I read a lot of different books in the past, but in the last year I've fallen onto a couple regulars and that's it.
Ultimate Spider-Man The Transformers (IDW) Star Wars Republic Star Wars Empire I read a lot more Marvel stuff before, but I pretty much lost intrest in them. Which is weird, because I've read ASM for well over 10 years. |
TMNT
Tales of the TMNT Amazing Spiderman Sensational Spiderman Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman Batman Detective Comics All Star Batman and Robin Transformers G1 New Avengers Ghost Rider Iron Man Street Fighter Mini's at the moment Son of M The Sentry Underword (Marvel) Silent Hill |
Mine are:
Fruit Basket Oh My Godess Ranma 1/2 Digimon Zero Two Digimon Tamers Pikachu Shock Back The Electric Tales of Pikachu Card Captors |
Well, the Sentry miniseries just ended, leaving me with...
Astonishing X-Men: Joss Whedon and X-Men, a potent combination. Action Comics: For the most part the Superman titles have been in a slump for a few years in my eyes (with the exception here and there), but OYL has pretty much breathed new life in the books. Birds of Prey: Huntress is pretty much one of my favorite (if not my absolute favorite) comic book characters and Gail Simone has making this title a joy to read since her first issue. And with Lady Shiva and Prometheus showing up in the title, it's even more worthwhile. Marvel Team-Up: Hasn't been a bad issue yet, and the last arc gave major props to Darkhawk. Now that's cool. Moon Knight: Always been a MK fan, so this is pretty much a no brainer for me. Ms. Marvel: Same as Moon Knight and, while only two issues in, the series has been worthwhile. Street Fighter II: Always have been a fan of this franchise through thick and thin, and the first volume was worthwhile, so... Superman: Same as Action Comics. Tales of the TMNT: For me it's been a bit hit or miss (granted, it's a rotating creative team, that is pretty much to be expected) but it's been overall worthwhile. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Things are starting to pick up and I'm curious to see where it all goes. The Sensational Spider-Man: Granted, I'm pretty much only reading it because both Black Cat and Lizard are big parts of the current storyline. The Uncanny X-Men: Where else am I going to get my Nightcrawler fix? X-Men: Mainly keeping up with it currently for the return of Apocalypse. |
She-Hulk- The world needs funny comics, and I thank Dan Slott for this series.
52- I want to finally see more Booster and Ralph Dibny, and now I get to. I just have to hope and pray that the powers that be at DC don't kill either of them for sales, as they are often wont to do. The Thing- Once again, a light-hearted and well-written comic by Dan Slott. The Thing's my favorite Marvel hero, too. TMNT- shouldn't need to explain Tales of the TMNT- ditto Captain Atom: Armageddon- I... like Captain Atom? Some of it's been very funny, as well. Flaming Carrot- This is hilarious. Pick it up when it comes out, you'll see. Fantastic Four- The family element was really being played out lately, although the last two were kind of a cheat. ---Josh |
