Batman Eternal
Batwoman
Captain Marvel
Chew
Deadpool vs Carnage
Harley Quinn
Hawkeye
Justice League 3000
Moon Knight
Ms. Marvel
The Movement
Nightcrawler
Saga
Sandman Overture
The Savage Wolverine
She-Hulk
The Superior Foes of Spider-Man
The Superior Spider-Man

Some of them, I get the trades for. Some, I buy the monthly comic books. How about you?

So what about you?

 

[Scarim Coral]

I only read Marvel and DC from the local library (graphic novel size or stand alone like Kingdom Come). Yes they have other comic books but I have no interest for those comicbook but I do read other non Marvel/ DC like Scott Pilgrim.

 

[Rooster893]

I'm on issue #13 of the Red Lanterns, but those are the only ones I can afford right now. However, this is a list of comics I'd like to read/catch up on:

Red Lanterns #13 - #30
Batman and Robin
Damian: Son of Batman
Green Lantern: Rebirth and subsequent Geoff Johns GL works
Suicide Squad
Teen Titans
Red Hood & the Outlaws
Larfleeze
Green Lantern: New Guardians
Action Comics
Superman/Wonder Woman
Supergirl
Shazam
Nightwing
Catwoman

Most of these titles are New 52 titles. I also plan on picking up classic issues, like The Killing Joke and Heart of Hush. I'd also like to catch up on some Marvel titles, such as The Punisher, Guardians of the Galaxy and Winter Soldier.

I also plan on picking up classic issues, like The Killing Joke and Heart of Hush.

Don't you mean the original Hush? I wouldn't call Heart of Hush a classic. Not saying it's bad, just... not a classic.

 

[Thaluikhain]

Used to be a DC person, but the New 52 sorta killed that off for me.

Oh, WHM, from Games Workshop. I think they made most of the available online for free, worth checking out.

 

[Hazy992]

I've been really behind comic books these last few months, so at the moment all I'm reading is the new Ms. Marvel and Ghost Rider stuff.

I used to read the New 52 Action Comics, and Suicide Squad and a bit of the Friendship Is Magic comic but I just kinda... stopped. I dunno why.

I prefer TPBs anyway. I've got Hawkeye, Captain Marvel and Young Avengers to read, plus some older stuff.

 

[Baron von Blitztank]

I'm not really up-to-date on comic books but right now I'm trying to catch up on the IDW Transformers comics. Also trying to read the original Marvel comic series. It's been kind of difficult to find issues though...

 

[Anachronism]

I don't read monthly comics, to be honest. Trades are cheaper, don't have adverts, and I can read the whole story in one go this way. My most recent acquisition was Rat Queens, an Image series I've been really excited for since it was announced. I did read the graphic novel Blue is the Warmest Colour recently as well, because I loved the movie and wanted to check out the source material. Definitely recommend it if anyone's interested; it's quite a bit less explicit than the film as well.

I also plan on picking up classic issues, like The Killing Joke and Heart of Hush.

Don't you mean the original Hush? I wouldn't call Heart of Hush a classic. Not saying it's bad, just... not a classic.

To be honest I wouldn't even call the original Hush a classic. Don't get me wrong, it's a really enjoyable book, but it's basically a Greatest Hits album. The individual chapters are a lot of fun, but the overarching story is terrible. The art is absolutely gorgeous, though, which makes a lot of difference.

 

[Talshere]

Serenity
Sex Criminals
Lazarus
Lunita

Also the Dragon Age graphic novel.

I steer clear of marvel and DC. To much commitment.

 

[Zontar]

Ultimate Spider-Man and Ultimate FF, plus New Ultimates. Also just started Inhuman and jumped onto Secret Avengers. You may notice a pattern here.

 

[chaser5000]

Uncanny X-men
Thunderbolts
Deadpool
Carnage vs Deadpool
Venom
Uncanny Avengers
X-Force
Secret Avengers
The Superior Spiderman
The Scarlet Spider

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

As a kid I read Asterix, Lucky Luke and occasionally Tintin.
These days I'm into Batman for wont of a comic book outlet. I got Arkham Asylum and Long Halloween and now I'm currently collecting every issue of the Knightfall arc.

 

[Artina89]

I am not really into Marvel or DC comics as such, but I love reading Tintin, Battle Royale and Death Note. I am also currently following Black butler and before it went on hiatus, Doktor Sleepless. My brother (who is an avid comic book/graphic novel reader) keeps on mentioning that I should give The Walking dead a read, but I really am a little fed up of zombies at the moment.

 

[Fdzzaigl]

I read mostly manga / manhua, and French comic books, with some local Belgian productions thrown in now and then. I've only followed Marvel / DC comics a handful times in the past. I do follow the walking dead.

Overall I have a weak for sci fi themes in comics.

Some of the ones I follow are:
Sillage
Aquablue
Aldebaran series
Orbital
Storm

and whatever manga looks interesting at the time (honestly, too many to remember)

 

[Sarah Kerrigan]

Guardians of the Galaxy
X-Force.
Winter Soldier (Buying the hardcovers as they come out)
Injustice Gods Among Us
Hawkeye
Gambit.
The true life of the Fabulous Killjoys

Manga wise;
Terra Formars
Gangsta


I'm not reading alot anymore. I used to, then I got too busy. I have a convention in a few weeks so I'll pick some more up there.

 

[EeveeElectro]

I read a load of Batman, and try to get my hands on every Harley Quinn centric ones.
My most recent purchase was X-men: Noir but I haven't read much of it.
I have the Essential Avengers and Civil War
Superman: Doomsday
Scott Pilgrim
New X-men
The Invincible Iron Man.

.... I need more. I'm going to buy more now.

 

[DaSpoony]

The only ones I read monthly are:
> Trillium (need to go in to grab the final issue some time)
> The Wake
> Clive Barker's Next Testament
> Silver Surfer

I also get Saga and The Walking Dead in trades, but 90% of the comics I get are just popular arcs/OGNs/limited series (so I rarely commit to an entire series).

 

[DeimosMasque]

Let's see here:

Marvel
Avengers
Mighty Avengers
New Avengers
Secret Avengers
She-Hulk
Fantastic Four
Superior (soon to be Amazing) Spider-Man
Superior Foes of Spider-Man
Guardians of the Galaxy

Uncanny X-Men

I'll exclude cancelled or recently finished

Big 2
DC
Sandman Overture
Wonder Woman

Mega Man
Afterlife of Archie

Valiant

There might be more but that's all I can think of right now.

 

[Silvanus]

Various DC titles whenever I can be bothered to pick them up, most commonly Batman titles, Justice League, and Detective Comics.

I'll also often pick up old storylines in Graphic Novel form, which is how I've read most of the comics I have. My collection is mostly graphic novel collections.

Also have a soft spot for Tintin and Asterix.
