For real.
Here are the comics to which I’m going to subscribe at my local store:
- 100 Bullets
- Amazing Spider-Man
- Astonishing X-Men
- Batman
- Detective Comics
- Fables
- Fallen Angel
- Fantastic Four
- Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man
- Sensational Spider-Man
- The Ultimates
- X-Factor
- Y: The Last Man
I’ll likely get the last couple of issues of 4 (formerly Marvel Knights 4) and the 5 issue Fantastic Four “First Family” mini-series. I’m also in for Truth, Justin and the American Way (review soon) and The Maze Agency mini-series.
Any other books I should be reading, given my list? Another Bat book to sub or add for the ones I’ve got?
Comment!
I can’t object to any of your titles. I’d add in anything by Rucka (especially his Queen & Country titles), any thing by Busiek, and … hmmm, yeah, Bendis, too, so I’d add “Powers” in to the list at least.
Usagi Yojimbo, by Stan Sakai. Excellently written and drawn tales of samurai/ronin-era Japan, only with (not-so-funny) animals.
A volume (from Dark Horse) should certainly be available to flip through at any respectable book store or comic store.
does this include the infinite crisis series from DC? i’ll have to defer to my better half to get you those titles, but i know the stories are eeeexcellent!
Seth! Bro-in-law! If you are a Grant Morrison fan, you really need to check out the SEVEN SOLDIERS mega-series from DC. Some of the best (almost) mainstream stuff I’ve read in a while. The ‘series of mini-series’ are about to be collected in TPB format, so your chance to grab ’em is coming around again.
