Johnny The Homicidal Maniac directors edition.
everyone should read this. senseless killing and some good morbid humor. |
Plenty of Marvel stuff and some Tintin.

... Read Preacher Vol. 3 and am working on Vol. 4. I think I'll have to order the remaining volumes from Amazon, like, now... Edit: Finished Vol. 4 today. Ordered Vols 5 - 7 from Amazon last night. |
A few issues of The X-files and some Tales from the Crypt. Just ordered Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash and a nightmare on elm street. I actually just started reading comics... Never found anything I liked until recently. I can't stand super heroes but I found a whole other world of comics/graphic novels.

Hace, You should check out
Irredeemable, invincible, kick-ass, Absolution, Sleeper (all those have superhero stuff, but...not at all like what you'd expect) Sweet tooth Criminal Incognito The Last Resort ...and of course, the walking dead. You will need to get back issues or tpbs (trade paperbacks, they're like collections of story arcs or complete series sometimes) to catch up on a few of those, but they're well worth it if you want to stray from the superhero bit. Another thing one could do, if they were so inclined to catch up on back issues or "preview" titles for purchase would be to get an application called DC++, go into some comics hubs, and download them. Freddy vs Jason vs Ash - The current series is pretty good, the last series was garbage. Plenty of good stuff doesn't revolve around the supers, I read both, but always like to pick up a good bit of unusual. |
Finished up V for Vendetta with a series of essays by Alan Moore at the end discussing how the character came to be.
Starting Warren Ellis' Transmetropolitan, I was told it would be a little more gritty than the other Ellis' works I've read. Spider is def. a little more gruff than, say, Mr. Snow of the Planetary comics, but I'm far from disappointed so far. |
now im reading some Mad.

Night Of The Living Dead

Red Robin #4
Oh shit! :eek: |
Marvel Zombies 4 issue #1-#4.
|
E.C. Comics, Tales From The Crypt. The Vault OF Horror,The Haunt Of Fear and since i was 8 The Hulk.
|
I'm rereading Sam Kieth's Ojo, waiting for the last issue of Kick-Ass to come out in November.
|
I'm just starting You Will Die by Your Own Evil Creation, the second anthology of wacked-out Fletcher Hanks comics from the '40s. Can't wait to dig in. If this is half as weird/good as I Shall Destroy All The Civilized Planets, it'll be terrific.

Noir, an anthology of short horror comics from Dark Horse. Almost every story in here is at least solid, but the new Stray Bullets story and a nice twist on Batman’s origin by Brian Azzarello are standouts. If you like crime comics, definitely check this one out.

Destination Moon.
|
20th Century Boys Vol. 5, by Naoki Urasawa - I think this series is 20 volumes or so. It's hard to imagine where it could be going (which is exciting) since, just as this volume built to what looked like a major climax, it cut away 15 years into the future. Weird, but intriguing.

Existence 2.0
My current comic reco. |
My current comment rec: I Shall Destroy All the Civilized Planets: The Fantastic Comics of Fletcher Hanks. Weird, antisocial, heavy, cynical masterpieces of thirties and forties comics by a guy who was clearly off his rocker. Very cool stuff.

I just finished the short solo comic series Mystique had.
I'm in the middle of all the new Deadpoool ongoing series' Cable.. The new X Force.. Black Widow.. Doctor Strange.. Fall Out Toy Works.. Wow... I need a life.. lol |
I think the current run of Cable is one of Marvels best.
The new deadpool team-up etc starting with 900 I don't really like but the ongoing is ok...still preferred the last ongoing though... |

Honestly, I didn't like the on-going Deadpool has that's being written by Daniel Way at first but I've really been loving it recently. Poor Bob lol. His old on-going from the 90's was great depending on who was writing it. It pained me to read through some of the crap Priest put out Xp |
Yeah I remember I read all of that 90's ongoing deadpool, actually have a copy of #1 as part of my collection...started off real good, then like not at the very end but towards the end it REALLY fell down some, almost a chore reading through those parts.
Yep, I read x-force (I download so I pretty much read....everything) and agreed it tied in well with cable. Though out of the two Cable is by far the best series IMO, I just wish they'd get back whoever was doing the art at the beginning...storyline's still cool, but it WAS one of the best looking comics out for a while there too. The one Marvel thing I avoid is usually all the space stuff, oh and agents of atlas which just looks stupid and I'm sure is just a passing phase...I'm waiting for guardians of the galaxy to move in from the...?war of kings? before I start reading again, I really don't need another crossover. Speaking of comics...guess it's about time to hit up dc++ and see what's out for the week. |

Just read Alan Moore's "For The Man Who Has Everything" I think that might be the best thing Jason Todd did as Robin, besides dying. I like Jason as the Red Hood and Dick's nemesis though. |
Tales of the Unknown.

"Blackest Night: Flash #1"
Now, I'm biased in the fact that I love Barry Allen and Captain Cold, but I FUCKING LOVE BARRY ALLEN AND CAPTAIN COLD! |
I used to hate Captain Cold, but once you read Geoff Johns' Flash stuff, he's hard not to like. And so different from Mister Freeze it isn't even funny.
