Hey all,
I've been a comic reader for agesssss, but I've never really found something to get me into DC as easy as I got into Marvel. I grew up watching all the 90s Marvel cartoons and my brother was a big fan, so I gravitated towards Marvel into my teens. Having said that, when I was about 14 I found myself drawn to Blackest Night, which got me into Green Lantern a hell of a lot, so I read the Geoff Johns stuff and i loved it. The New 52 was appealing for a new DC reader like myself, so I attempted to get into things then, however i only stuck with Batman. Then, when Rebirth came around I tried that too, but was wholly disappointed. The only DC comic I get regularly now is Morrison's Green Lantern. I want to desperately get into DC a bit more to up my knowledge (and because it has aspects I'm very interested in).
Basically, what i'm asking for is recommendations on runs/characters, whether they're classic, hidden gems, unmissable, or modern. Any character(s) will suffice. I've read a lot of Batman, a large amount of modern Hal Jordan/GL, and a decent amount of Superman, so other characters are pretty much complete blank slates for me. I work in a comic shop (Although I haven't read a lot of DC comics, my knowledge on characters/mythos is still quite high) so availability shouldn't be a problem for anything that's currently in print or milestones for certain characters.
Please, gimme all your juicy takes! Thanks!
