Looks interesting. I'll check it out.
I was a loyal reader of EGM from about 1998-2006.
Those Carl Barks Duck comics are great, as everyone has pointed out. However, I feel I must further point out the greatness of the Floyd Gottfredson Mickey strips. What great adventure stories! And...
I prefer my stories being in their own little universe. I don't really want to have to care about other books or characters I don't read or care about. I prefer to just focus on the world and...
Chew
Saga
Descender
Currently powering through (AND LOVING) Floyd Gottfredson's Mickey Mouse strips. I'm currently reading volume 2 of the Fantagraphics hardcover collections. These are great.
Ghostbusters
Young Frankenstein (one of my all-time favorite movies)
Shaun Of The Dead
Mad Monster Party
It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
...and any of the old Universal monster mobies I...
I'm currently (and slowly--too much other stuff to read!) reading Essential Fantastic Four volume 4. Silver Surfer! Galactus! The Inhumans! LOCKJAW! Fun stuff so far!
Bone, Watchmen and for a more recent one, Trillium, I find reward multiple reads.
I really liked Peter Milligan and Jim Aparo's short run on Detective Comics in the early 90's.
I was a fan of it, personally. It wasn't the most consistent run ever, but as noted, some truly great stories did come out of it (Heart Of Hush, Slay Ride, etc.), and I also liked what he did with...
No one dies.
My top 10 (in no particular order):
Batman '89
Batman: Mask Of The Phantasm
The Rocketeer
American Splendor
X-Men First Class
Iron Man
The Dark Knight
Sin City
This, and I'll also mention Alan Grant and Norm Breyfogle's "The Last Arkham" and "The Mudpack", as well as Doug Moench and Paul Gulacy's (with exquisite coloring by Terry Austin) "Prey." I'm also...
Tough one, but gun to my head, I'll say Saga.
The Alan Grant/Norm Breyfogle or the Timm/Dini/Etc. incarnation. Tough, strong, dark, but heroic, and still very much a good guy. Not too grim and gritty, not much paranoia going on.

1992. I was six years old. Never looked back since. And yes, I still own it. It's all torn and tattered, but i still have it. I've since...

I had received a Superman book here, or a Dick Tracy reprint there, but THIS is what did it for me. I picked this up on a trip to 7-11, on...
I like NXT and all, but what is up with all the wacky new gimmicks lately? Max Moon and Mantaur are watching this, and going "Guys, pull it back a little!"
I used to buy 70%-90% DC, but over the last three years, i've been gradually dropping them, to the point where I don't follow a single one anymore. This is the first time I've never followed a single...
NXT is wrestling detox for me. Generally, it's basic but compelling story lines, logical booking, they choose someone to push and actually give him/her a real chance to shine, versus the now-standard...
