I have a few that I would like to pick, but am not going to break my only rule :) Choose a single creator (writer or artist) that you would recommend based only on the on-goings they are currently producing. Try to NOT let past creations play into the equation. I will suggest the front...

Do you have any titles, past or present, that seem to be hailed as great, but you just can't read because you don't like the art? This thread isn't intended to anger people, though being critical of something almost universally liked will, by nature, do just that. I, for example, have...

Someone told me that Image's business model involves no editors, and complete risk/control of characters/property for creators. This got me to wondering...:) Perhaps this is why Image's output has been so amazing! (Understand, that I am actually STARTING with the 'Image is amazing' thesis...

They don't have to be NEW this year past - perhaps its a comic that you think has had a fantastic year but is several years old... whatever - its your list :) Here's mine: 5 - Fatale - Reads better, IMO, in trade, but a great read however you slice it. Brubaker/Phillips never make my #1...

I'm going to start with a 'thesis statement' that some people will disagree with, others will think is almost vacuously true, and (I assume) many will fall between these two extremes :) Most times, a creator's independent work is superior to the work he/she produces for the big 2. Why...

...I would choose Image. Manhattan Projects Chew Morning Glories Saga and on and on - each week, I find my #1 choice coming from Image. How about you?

Who's that person that seems to have the midas touch for you? Which writer, and/or, artist always seems to create comics 'magic' for you? For me: Writer: Matt Fraction or Ed Brubaker. Slight Edge to Brubaker - Both involved in Immortal Iron Fist!! ..and while Fraction's Casanova is my all-time...

Which of the following 3 comics is off to the best start? Which has entertained you the most so far, and keep in mind, which seems to have allowed itself the most room to potentially continue doing so. Saga Fatale Manhattan Projects Thief of Thieves

...what would it be? And you can choose something that is a series of miniseries (like 'Hellboy'), rather than an on-going - just so long as its not officially cancelled. Here are your choices: Marvel - DC - Vertigo - Icon - Image - IDW - Dark Horse - Dynamite - ONE other of...

Matt Fraction's 'Casanova' is outstanding - my favourite current comic. This is followed closely by 'Criminal' and 'Incognito' by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips (I haven't yet read the new 'Fatale', but from the premise, it might be my favourite of their collaborations yet!) I also enjoy...

So, as many will do, I've been watching the 5 movies leading up to 'The Avengers'. I was wondering what others thought of each relative to the others. My order, Best to worst: Thor Iron Man Captain america Hulk IM 2 I didn't dislike IM2, but happened to enjoy it the least of the...

I suppose this will only be meaningful to those of us that loved this series (particularly the first two arcs), and know what we are missing. Imagine seeing a super-cool update of one of your all-time favourite characters, finally made relevant. Now read this - This guy explains with...

I asked a similar question about all major Marvel heroes (maybe a year ago?). My own choice for F4 was a story I could remember, but couldn't find re-printed anywhere. It was just put out recently: 'In Search of Galactus', #204-214...

http://www.comicbookmanifesto.com/ Check out this website - I did a search for it here, but couldn't find that anyone referenced it yet (sorry if its old hat here :( ) I actually agree with much of what he suggests. My only problem? I obsessively treat some of my comics like collectibles...

Keep your crossovers and events! For me, its: The Immortal Weapons one-shots. http://marvel.com/digitalcomics/titles/IMMORTAL_WEAPONS_SKETCHBOOK.2009.1 I know that a series of 'origins' might sound boring to some, but this looks great to me! What are you anticipating?

Two omnibuses (omnibi?) are coming out July 1, both of which I am tremendously interested in - Immortal Iron Fist and Ultimates. Brubaker/Fraction/Aja on IIF and Millar/Hitch on Ultimates represent not only two of my favourite modern runs on comics, but two of my favourite all time (and I've...

....what would it be? Feel free to say 'N/A' if nothing a company puts out interests you :) Here are the companies (with my own choices) Marvel - Immortal Iron Fist DC - Tiny Titans (for my girls... honest) Dark Horse - Umbrella Academy Image - Invincible Any other company (1 book only) -...

Comic buyers are 'habit-formers'. We all get books that were once good, and we hang onto, hoping they'll 'return to grace'. There's even some 'reinforcing' data around - comics like ASM or FF or Captain America have all had runs where they were awful, but rebounded to greatness (..and back.. and...

Please address the state of the Ultimate Universe by ranking the following current/recent arcs/events in order of enjoyment for you. Here are the events, in the order in which I preferred: 1. Ultimate Human 2. Death of a Goblin 3. Ultimate Vision 4. UFF Thanos arc 5. Spidey's...
