Any comic book readers?


Recommended Posts

I hadn't read any comics for a while. I had this 800-page compendium of the X-Men "Fall of the Mutants" storyline sitting on my shelf for a year, and I just picked it up and read it over a few days. It made me 12 years old again, which I guess was a good thing, because now I'm inspired to just keep reading Uncanny X-Men digital comics. I missed Chris Claremont. Anyone have a favorite recent X-Men story arc?

I've been on a huge comic kick lately. Plowed through the Swamp Thing graphic novels in January. Lately I have been reading:

 

Nowhere Men

Fatale 

Mind MGMT

Manhattan Projects

Trillium

FBP

Saga of the Swamp Thing? Me too. Has to be the best example of a deeper comic writing that fits within the superhero spectrum.

I was never a huge comic book guy even growing up as a kid but I did own a few that I really enjoyed. Reading this thread kind of got me curious about getting back into it again, even if only a little. I actually owned every original Spawn comic from the original series through about #50 or #60 and actually duplicates of each at one point. Probably the one series I really truly "collected". I should've never sold them when I was like 19 'cuz it would be fun to re-read them and been able to pass them down to my kids one day. I don't even think I got $50 for all of them at the time. So stupid. Oh well, live and learn...

Just got caught up on FBP and Black Science, pretty excited about both of them.  I'm not entirely sure where FBP is going to go based on the last two issues though.

Yeah it started off super strong but has gotten a little weak lately. Still, every series has ups and downs, and the ups of FBP are really great so I've got faith it'll pick back up. 

 

I'm a sucker for that sort of sic-fi story anyways, so I'll keep reading regardless.

I'll definitely stick with it.  The arc of the last two issues felt out of place, luckily it was short.  I'm hoping it'll get back on track and even with that slight dip in quality, it's still pretty damn good.
