    It's just one issue, but Morrison and Case's "Going Underground" from DP #30 was excellent, I'm not surprised the show adapted it relatively faithfully.

    For longer stories, I loved the second Brotherhood of Dada story, I guess you could call it "Magic Bus," and the introduction of Danny the Street with the false Men from Nowhere, which would be "Down Paradise Way."

    The defining DP story for me is their final Silver Age issue, where they sacrificed themselves to save a town of 14 people.

    DP issues 9-12.
    A couple of my favorite covers as a kid, Gargaux attacks, and a plot about Larry Trainor obsessively trying to get his negative energy being back.


    DP issues 19-22.
    I mean come on.


    DP 64-66.
    Following Grant Morrison’s no easy feat. Rachel Pollack stepped up.

    I think it was the last issue of Morrison's run where Jane is in "hell". Overall the whole Candlemaker story with slow build up and brutal finish.

    I absolutely LOVED Paul Kupperberg's Doom Patrol. I mean, it gave us Erik Larsen, and, boy, was he a shock comming on the trail of Steve Lightle. That first arc by Kupperburg and Lightle is probably one of my favorites.

    Morrison sure found the right wierd tone to tell the Doom Patrol stories, and this was the story that showed it. Also among my favorites, alongside "Going Underground." Oddly enough, I didn't enjoy so much the Doom Patrol once it went "mature readers". It was missing a bit the super-hero shinnanigans. I guess I'm not much of a "mature reader".

    Peace
