[QUOTE=lodebone;5714870]Reading the same now, just finished the Doom stories and loving it. Wieringo's art is wonderful also. Also just finished Brubaker's Marvels Project which was amazing. Love WWII Cap stories done in a modern style and would appreciate any suggestions for similar.[/QUOTE]
I loved it too. Now reading Thor omnibus by Walter Simonson.

Fourth World by John Byrne, a great companion to Orion by Walt Simonson, and one of the great successors to the Kirby books. I hope if they ever make the screen the original designs are adapted more faithfully. With the New Gods, the more color and variety the better.

Doesn't have Cap, but Marvel's Mystery Men by David Liss and Patrick Zircher is pretty damn good. Early days pulpy superheroes during the 40s. Also JMS' the Twelve.

[QUOTE=DanMad1977;5714506]I read it awhile ago and thought it was exhausting and boring to read. One of the few books from Alan Moore that I don't like and don't understand the fuzz about.[/QUOTE]
I had a different experience - I finished volume 1 yesterday and loved it. Thought it was much better than the material in the Bronze Age omnibus. Starting on volume 2 tonight.

I am more the Man Thing type of guy (wow, how that comes off?). Usually I like Alan Moore.
Wish you a good read with vol. 2.

[FONT=Verdana]I finished this one, recently (borrowed from a friend of mine). It's nice for a '79 story.

I read Ultimate Captain America, by Jason Aaron and Ron Garney and it was... fine. I liked what Aaron was aiming for at the beginning of the story, but towards the end, Captain America learns nothing, and I wanted this version of Steve Rogers to be able to change since he's kind of an *******. Still, I had fun throughout the whole volume

Thanks![/QUOTE]
You are welcome.
Right now I read the 60teeess X-Men comics in the Masterworks version of my language. I think the translator changed the dialog a bit, it sounds pretty funny, almost like a its so bad that its good comedy.

How are you liking this?
After his dreadful [I]GLC[/I] mini series, a sampling of [I]Injustice[/I], and [I]DCeased[/I] (blah) I'd written off Taylor for the most part. However his current [I]Nightwing[/I] run is fantastic! Based on that I added his two Spidey trades to my Amazon wishlist but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

I've just started reading through the Green Lantern by Geoff Johns omnibus vol 1 really good so far.

Is that everything I have to buy to read through it? I mean the titles you mentioned above. I would like to try that as well.
