Comic Book Fans Unite!

so yeah...more or less I have been reading comics since the age of 5 and just decided to start up a thread for general comic discussion.

i'm curious for all my fellow readers, what is your favorite line of comics? not an entire universe or even a series, but that 4 or 5 book mini feature that you love so dearly?

30 days of darkness is a badass short about vampires coming out during the months of darkness in alaska

but my favorite has to be the age of apacolypse. the artwork is amazing in this set...the four horsemen are complete badasses and it makes me want to meditate until i develope super powers, but instead, i'm going to go take my calc exam in 20 minutes...

also, what is good that is out right now? the last line i was keeping up with was "The New X-Men" and "Weapon X" (all comics have the letter X in them). I only get to keep up in the summer when i'm not in class and somewhat employed...

i never got any of the classic comics like batman or spiderman (simply coz i never saw them) but i watched the cartoons - Xmen fuckin rocked

the comics i got were the ones we get in england like the dandy and dennis the menace

c'mon...i know i'm not the only one here who's dorky enough to read comics...

[DigitalDwarf]

my dad used to read them, does that count?

[Rubberneck]

haha, sure, why not. now you just have to get his ass to post on this board so i don't feel so alone.

[DigitalDwarf]

i don't think he would post on it. Everytime I try to tell him that Mars Volta is a good band he tells me they are a mixture of Led Zeppelin and Rush...........

Sorry about the late vote of support here. I also read the comics, though am too skint to but them anymore.

I am into Batman bigtime. Batman only man. I like 1980s-early90s, and then they did some stupid stuff until like 2003. Got loads of back issues.
Only other thing I really have now is "Watchmen" book, which was good.

i have to admit that i was never really into the d.c. universe comics. not that they weren't good, i think it's just that i wanted something completely stretched from reality, and batman and superman were too close to human for me. however, i do have the death of superman issue in a hard case waiting to pick up some value one of these days.

Im the other way round. I like the real life stuff. Batman- no superpowers. I like that. Identify with him. I had Superman's death copy. Start of silly DC plots.
