What's everyone reading these days?

[Javaman]

Usually, I don't read much in regards to the "caped hero's" type comics anymore, but I did pick up the trades for "Marvels" and "Kindom Come" two great reads (and the art is wonderful).

Two interesting reads I picked up recently were, "Satilite Sam" and "Planetoid".

1. I have too many titles pulled each month

I know that much.

I was just going to post something like this.

My current favorites:

Thor (Thor is my superhero fixation. Working on getting the 1st series)
Hawkeye (I'm a Matt Fraction fan and his writing on this is great and very non-superhero-y)
Walking Dead
Lazarus
Infinity series with Marvel--Don't know if I will go all in on the next segment of that but it's entertaining
East of West
Satellite Sam (Again, Fraction)

[Codeine]

2. Kind of a ridiculously long list, actually.

I need to cut my pulls down.

Justice League.
Justice League of America.
Aquaman
The Flash
Wonder Woman
World's Finest
Batgirl
Batman
Catwoman
Detective
Supergirl
Superman
Superman Unchained
Batman/Superman
Superman/Wonder Woman (added to pulls but haven't picked up yet)
Green Lantern
Green Lantern Corps
Larfleeze
All Star Western
Animal Man
Swamp Thing
Astro City

Hawkeye
Daredevil

Star Wars
Saga (highly fucking recommended)
Manhattan Project
The Massive
Sex Criminals
Conan

And that's after I culled a dozen or more titles from my list several months back and watched another bunch get cancelled.

4. Pretty strongly in the DC universe

More of a Marvel guy, myself.

I forgot to mention Sex Criminals (A: Fraction, again. B: I'm an Image Comics slut, I admit it). That has a lot of potential and is awesome at this point.

Also have Pretty Deadly on the top of my "to read" pile and that has been hyped pretty hard for the last few months.

[Codeine]

5. Marvel doesn't do it for me much at all.

That said, my favorite supers book right now is Daredevil, so quality still wins out. I was reading Fraction's Defenders monthly, but sadly that only managed a dozen issues before the hammer fell.

3. Nothing anymore

stopped my monthly titles in September and I'm going to go back to graphic novels. I'm a monthly subscriber yet they would mess up my comics on a weekly basis, and I got sick of dealing with it so I'm back to graphic novels. I do plan on getting the Alan Moore Swamp Thing hardbacks for Xmas(at least that is what I"m hoping the wife gets me).

[Codeine]

6. I hate it when they screw up my pull.

Thankfully my shop doesn't do it a lot, but because I let my books stack up for a bit before reading I can miss an issue or two and by the time I realize what happened the title is sold out.

[Broken_Hero]

7. mine would miss pulls every week

and I've to fill holes via Amazon, and I just got tired so back to graphics for me(never should've left).

[white_wolf]

8. My pull list

Green Arrow
Batman
Nighwing
Detective Comics
Ghosted
Young Avengers
Damian Wayne

I know it's really heave DC, but Young Avengers is actually my favorite comic on that list. Nothing can compare to my love of Billy and Teddy. They need their own duo series and it needs to be called "Billy and Teddy's Excellent Adventures."

[Codeine]

9. I must be the only person who really can't stand the art on Green Arrow.

The old creative teams had (often mindbogglingly) shitty stories and decent art, while the new team has great storytelling from Lemire and crappy art from Sorrentino.

10. Have "Blankets" On Order

and just bought Anya's Ghost. Can't wait to get into them both, probably will be the main agenda during the snow storm...

[GOLGO 13]

11. Mostly horror for me

Walking Dead Yeah, it's slow as fuck but I don't care. Kirkman is brutal on his creation and we love him for it.

HELLBOY & BPRD The movies were kinda meh, but the books are top shelf and created by the fertile mind of Mike Magnolia.

The GOON Great, creative artwork & I love the writing. Flawless is what this is.

BLACK DYNAMITE Not horror, but Black Dynamite is a cool soul brother fighting for what's right. Ya dig?

[McCamy Taylor]

12. My subservice list at the moment:

Batwoman

Harley Quinn

Rat Queens

Saga

Rachel Rising

Ten Grand

Constantine (it has just started to get back to being like the old Hellblazer)

Deadpool (of course!)

The Wicked and The Divine

Lazarus

Sex Criminals (must read, even for folks who don't like comics)

Moon Knight

Death of Wolverine

(The New) Sandman

Vampirella

Wonder Woman

Thor

Loki

Miracleman (it's being reprinted finally!)

probably forgot a few

[Codeine]

13. That's a solid list.

I'd leave a lot of the Marvel stuff off but we look to have similar tastes.

[Sentath]

14. A mix of 'Comic Books' and superhero prose

Marvel:
A-Force (of course)
Planet Hulk (the one with the tribal Captain America)
Doctor Strange (I Missed #1 )

Prose:
Caped
Curveball Year One: Death of a Hero (Curveball Omnibus Book 1) - Both books, liked it. right amount of grit (And compiling this I see that there are single issues I can grab
Goon Squad 1-9 - Obviously I like it, I've been buying them slowly as they come out between his other projects. Brit flavoured low powered sanctioned heroics.
The Villain's Sidekick (The HandCannon Files Book 1) & The Devil's Right Hand: HandCannon: Origins (The HandCannon Files) Ex-Henchman cleaning up his act.
Firedrake Vol 1 & Tales of the Emergence - on a single line 'cause it's single author, same world. Medium power scale and comic book style government sanctioning.
Just Cause: Revised & Expanded Edition - 4 Color heroics with a little realism around the edges? Series start and I've liked what I've read.
The Good Fight - Free & Good
The Good Fight 2: Villains - A really nice compilation supporting a good cause
Wearing the Cape (Wearing the Cape Series Book 1) - Superheroism with a Catholic Woman protagonist. Good enough I'm buying it on paper.
Cape High Series - Gad that one's goopy, purely a coping mechanism during a crisis. Xtian Relationship Highschool Romance Drama with a powereds skin. Still, skillfully enough written that I can't say it was bad. Just syrupy.

Tried and Rejected:
Zephyr: Phase One - Found it a bit gritty for my taste
Miss Marathon: Earth's First Superhero - Juvenile acceptance of consequence free violence amongst military chain of command. 0 stars
Good Intentions: A Supervillain Story - Yeaaaaah .. his intentions weren't that good
Super: Origins - I apparently like the author, but this is like a militarized Charlies Angels with a little relationship abuse (isolation, control issues, suspicion) thrown in.

Yeah, OK it isn't hero but good enough to mention:
The Shambling Guide to New York City (The Shambling Guides) - I have liked the greater part of her writing and this one is a gem

Please pardon the Amazon links, but that is the only place I can find some of these.
