All I know is that I went through the entire DC offering for April and there was
not one
title that interested me.
Granted, I'm an old (old) reader and my taste has changed through the decades,...
When it first came out, it was so radically different from nearly everything else on the stands, and so well done, it was truly refreshing.
Because it was MacGregor and Colan, I picked it, and really enjoyed it. Two series, IIRC.
Ahhh, Jonny Quest is sooo good, has some really terrific stories.
Me, I'm working my way through Powers for the first time since it first published, and enjoying it as well. But--
Rereading Ellis'...
What a great summation! Thank you! Haven't much care for Doc's writers these past two (?!) decades, after MANY decades faithful following and gradual discouragement, but enjoyed most of his two...
Heh... a little late to the party, but hey, I'm here to add my voice to the loud and deserved praise for Sandman Mystery Theatre. Yes, it is well worth reading.
Yes.
oh wow, very cool good stuff, hcongjasmine. Lucifer, Hellblazer, and Preacher make a mighty powerful blend and Turtles for ccomic relief?
shoeshoemanjoe, I was a big archer and armstrong fan, and...
I recently reread the seven issues of Dark Horse's Triple X ["XXX"], which I'd forgotten so entirely that all I knew was I'd held onto it twenty-five years or more because it's written and drawn by...
#3--heartbreaking, yes, that's the word, alright. Maybe the hardest comic to read (emotionally) I can recall, certainly for many years, now. I will certainly be approaching next issue with a LOT...
I think Squirrel Girl is great! But Tigra is not Doreen Green (Squirrel Girl), and a Squirrel Girl style would not suit Tigra.
I like old sailing ships, and pictures of sailing ships, and it's pirate stories that bring those. I've always liked strong women leads, from Thorne's Red Sonja on. A Man Among Ye is a story of...
Well stingray, you seem pretty well versed in HTD, so, if not too late, let me just say that Spidergeek2000 speaks clearly for me, as well!
right now, new titles (1-3 issues published) I'm enjoying:
A Man Among Ye (pirates)
Dept of Truth (SF paranoia/conspiracy)
Spy Island (amusing (very) paranoia, conspiracy)
Grendel, KY (monster...
Sometime around the first "Secret Wars" from Marvel, which would probably be around the time of the first "Crisis on Infinite Earths." Haven't cared about events since.
With Houses of Mystery and Secrets, I'd create (heh...or 'have someone create') two anthology series of 'mini-series' with one set of creators telling a 4-6 issue story followed by another set of...
YES! But-- as Weirdspace and MRP both suggest, above, it's the first 40-some issues, by Grell, that are worth your time. The Maggie the Cat series is also good reading. The non-Mike Grell Sable...
Oh that's great to hear-- hoping to get ahold of #2 this weekend.
and then, there's--

I don't read many comics that actually surprise me, let alone surprise more than once per issue, but by golly, Spy Island did, and in both of its two so-far published issues. It's definitely...
C'mon, you folks, this was a great first issue. ;) Those other issues preceding, (those numbered 1-3) are really only fill in issues from later on in the series, right? But as Robanker writes,...
Read this (finally!) and really, really enjoy it. It seems like a really strong beginning, and certainly engages me enough to want very much to see if they can continue to carry this without...
Still working my way through Ex Machina (Brian K. Vaughn, Tony Harris) and beginning again Leave it to Chance (James Robinson, Paul Smith)
Oh yes! I should add Nexus into my next-to-read list. Glad yer enjoying it!
Currently I'm reading The Dreamery, Tales from the Bog, and the incredible Reid Fleming, along with working through Ex...
I am a really a strong fan of the Moench/Zeck, Moench/Galacy era of MOKF. And have been pretty much disappointed in all further takes, including much of the ending issues of that original run,...
