COMIC COLLECTORS (MARVEL, DC, INDEPENDENT) Recommend Comics to Pull

[A.J. Trillzynski]

for quality, mature Batman reads these are essential graphic novels IMO:

Year One

The Long Halloween

The Cult

Birth of the Demon (collects the Ra's al Ghul 'Demon Trilogy')

The Killing Joke

Joker (Azzarello/Bermejo)

Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth

The Dark Knight Returns

Kingdom Come

If u like the cosmic tier Marvel characters, go with the Silver Surfer books with artwork done by Ron Lim. U have a ton of great stories and artwork (the return of Thanos and Adam Warlock, prelude to the Infinity Gauntlet, the Herald Ordeal storyline, etc) during Dude's run on the Surfer.

As for as Marvel cosmics, like Dr. Mindbender122 said, the Surfer books and Guardians of the Galaxy..Quasar had a decent run. If you want great story arcs, go with the Herald Ordeal, the Infinity Guantlet, Thanos Imperative, Annihilation Wave (the first one). Avengers have so many great stories you can just hop right in on any of them, but the Kang and Korvac saga were decent. Also check out the old West Coast Avengers..now a dope story arc was Brubaker's run on Daredevil..i'm talking about classic shit here..Priest's Black Panther is a must have. you can never go wrong with Spidey. I can't give specific numbers right now, but i will pull the stacks over the weekend.

I still have the original Infinity Gauntlet series when it dropped in the early 90's....Prelude to The Infinity Gauntlet i will check out.

Is there anything current that you think should be given a chance from the cosmic side in Marvel

Thanos Imperative is what i need to read to get to known the character a little bit more, i will add that to my pull list, and the Brubaker's run of Daredevil

What Avengers title you follow now that you think is good and what you think about the Dark Avengers, and SPiderman.

@loucypher i used to collect Spawn when the great exodus of Marvel Writers and Artist in the early 90's took place and formed IMAGE.

How is Spawn in 2012, and do you like the reboot of Aquaman and Justice League

 

[Lou Cypher]

Current spawn is cool. i picked it up at 213, and i guess the new spawn tookover around 200. Maelbogia is weakened but trying to get his shit together, every issue your finding out a little bit more about the new spawn. And hes trying to fuck up Heaven and hell, whoever wants it. The way maelbogia was talking it sounds like Al simmons might come back and wreck the new spawn.

Justice League reboot is pretty cool. The new villain they got right now is pretty bad ass. Like i said i never really read the older comics so i dont know what its like compared to the older issues but current titles its one of my faves.

Aquaman. Man Geoff Johns makes him a dope ass hero. Early issues revolves around Aquaman kinda wanting to be alone, everytime he makes an appearance in public people give him shit and say he's a useless hero but he flips that shit. I was the same way and never understood the point of aquaman and picked up 3 issues just for shits and giggles now its my 3rd fave JL solo comic. Behind the regular batman title and the Green Lantern.

Geoff johns is probably my fave writer in the coms i have. He does Justice League, Green Lantern and Aquaman. think he might do more too.
