Favorite Comic Book Stories?

Captain America: The Bloodstone Hunt. I love the story in this series. It had a huge scale and covered so many different aspects of Cap`s day to day, showing him in a ton of different situations but still managed to keep an overarching story. It's pure awesome.

Green Arrow: Longbow Hunters. Only three issues but Longbow set up the 80 issue arch by Mike Grell that is some of the most amazing storytelling in comics. Period. Longbow is a very adult, complicated story with a little tragedy mixed in and paved the way for such an amazing turn in the Green Arrow mythos.

Thor: Walt Simonson`s run. Not sure if this counts since it's an entire run, but Simonson took Thor and did some new, awesome things with him. His run is still mentioned as the best Thor stuff and I have to agree. It felt like a Fantasy series, even when he was on Earth and the writing was out of this world good. Love it.

TMNT 1-8: Now, with Mirage Turtles, I've loved everything I've read, even the bad one's, but I love the first 8 especially. The first few are so good but when the world hopping starts, I absolutely go nuts. I love those stories because they're fun, entertaining and written so well. Granted, I haven't read all of the first volume of Turtles so I might like something in there more if I had, but this is still my favorite.
