I used to read lots of American comic books (Spider-Man, Superman, Batman, Spawn, X-Men, Wolverine etc.) but I competely lost interest in them (except TMNT). Instead I read tons of Manga now.
I buy:
-Meitantei Conan
-Monster
-20th Century Boys
-Pluto
-Kenshin
-Eagle
-One Piece
-GTO
-Naruto
-Inu Yasha
-Vagabond
-Slam Dunk!

When I was a kid, I got Elfquest and the Transformers. Then I switched over to the TMNT and Usagi Yojimbo.

Now it's Mirage TMNT, and all the Transformer titles by Dreamwave. Plus DW's TMNT when that was a go.

Cool topic! Here's what I'm currently reading (besides TMNT)...

Comics:
Wildguard
Street Fighter
JLA/Avengers
Dark Days (though I haven't picked up a new issue in months)

Manga:
Battle Royal
King of Hell
Chronicles of the Cursed Sword

I'd probably be reading more, if there were a comic store nearby.

I read Hulk, TMNT, Amazing Spider-man, Ultimate Spider-man, Usagi Yojimbo, and anything else that seems interesting. I don't read DC or Image very often though.

I've only read Evangelion, Love Hina, and some Maison Ikkoku mangas. $9 a book gets kind of pricy after a while.

Same with me. There used to be a comic store here, but it went out of business. They had a bunch of the Volume 1 comics. I liked the 25 cent bin too.

I like it. It's a superhero spoof of all the reality TV shows going on. If you think about American Idol, but with heroes instead of singers, then that should give you a good idea of the plot. All kinds of people with different powers audition to become a part of the next big superhero team. The writing is really good, with big events occurring during the auditions (ie enemies crashing in as well as other things) and many of the characters have individual personalities. It's also pretty light-hearted, and has some quirky humor thrown in.

Oh, and I definitely agree on the artwork. Nauck is doing a great job, and I think his character designs are cool. They remind me of the colorful costumes used by heroes in the 80's/early 90's.

Every month or whenever I can I get the following.

Batman
Batman Detective
Fables
100 Bullets
Batman Superman

Occasionally I'll pick up some Superman and sometimes Mangas. Since it was just recently that I've gotten back into the turtles I only have one tales of the tmnt but I plan to get as many turtle comics as I possibly can. Hopefully I'm going to the comic store tomorrow with Major Pain
