Best comic series of 07?
What do you think was the best comic series of 2007?
From what I read, I'm going with World War Hulk. It was great action from start to finish, but it wasn't mindless action neither. I thought the story was well written by Greg Pak, and the series helped make the Hulk cool again. Great art by John Romita Jr. as well. The other Marvel mega-event, Civil War, was good, but not everyone was pleased with the resolution. WWH for my money was hard to find anything to complain about. I'm also giving honorable mention to the new Thor. I thought that was great. I also thought Action Comics produced some really good issues this year, the story arcs written by Geoff Johns and Richard Donner were pretty cool.

As for best comic of 07 IMO? That's a tough one; I've read a lot of comics this year. IDW's Transformers Spotlight has been consistently good since it began and is a concept I've wanted to see in a Transformers comic for years. Not only does it give both popular and obscure characters a chance to shine, but it ties in significantly to the main Transformers series, too. I've been enjoying it more than pretty much any other title this year. Or, at least, it hasn't let me down as much as any other book. A close second would have to go to Paul Dini's run on Detective Comics. In fact, it might even surpass my previous selection. Without a doubt the best Batman stories I've read in a very, very long time. |

And I agree, Paul Dini's run on Detective has been really good. Gotta say, I'm not crazy about the Resurrection of Ras Al Ghul story arc though. Every issue I've read of that has seemed half-assed and rushed. EDIT:: Forgot to mention the horrible artwork in the RORAG storyarc. The artwork in the last issue of Dectecive was terrible.

Marvel
-World War Hulk. Sod making Iron Man a Nazi or killing off Cap, The Hulk has been one of few heroes not utterly raped in the ass and bled dry by Marvel, in fact The Hulk is damn near impossible to screw up because he is angst personified as either Banner or The Hulk. I BELIEVED him as the angry overlord who could have blown a city up, that's the Maestro beggining to awaken, and it's resolution leaves everyone wondering if we will see The Hulk become what he fears he'll become the most. IDW Transformers: Furman's spotlights and new G1 continuity have been joys to read, and restoing Galvatron as an independent character is a nice nod to his original background and direction, even if I dont agree with it DC -Superman: Jones and Donner have really spared the character from the nightmarish "emo" driven big events, but "Last Son" hasnt ended, and whilst arcs are beggining and failing to end, enjoyable fillers have helped the title deal with that. |
