Your Book of the Decade

40 posts in this topic

Y The Last Man picked up the first tpb because I heard so much about it and I love it. Got all the other trades as well.

 

Goon. I started reading this when Darkhorse picked it up. Great series. Lots of laughs.

 

Jonah Hex. love the character. Started with the first issue and just read issue 50 yesterday.

 

and my favorite stand alone story in Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader? I also love anything written by Neil Gaiman.

Wolverine

Enemy of the State, Agent of Shield, and Old Man Logan

Millar does Wolverine right no bones about it. Ill be back to the Old Man Logan universe whenever he wants. Its basically Wanted in the Marvel Universe.

 

Invincible

Super hero teen with real life issues and a dad with even more issues. Spidey back in the 60s. Love it

 

Walking Dead

Kirkman at his finest. Personally I find it depressing after I read several issues, but man I cant fault his writing. Brillant. Cant wait for Show

 

Winnick's Exiles Run

Love the time hopping alternate reality show. Really loved his take on the Inhumans. Very skilled writer

 

Wanted

The Super Villains have won now what do we do next? The book rocked and the movie sucked . Only adult content book I have ever liked.

 

JSA

Geoff Johns has a masterpiece here. His first run was utter brillance that many never read. I miss now that he has left.

I think my book of the decade has to be All-Star Superman.

It was the only Superman book I read and I loved it,and that's very hard to do since I don't like reading Superman books.

 

That was the book(s) that first popped into my mind....I got them in hardcover and love 'em. All-Star Batman looks decent too....but I'm waiting for the hard cover. I also enjoyed Ultimate Fantastic Four, even though it skewed everything I knew about the group. Any of the Bendis Avengers stuff was also phenominal. GOD BLESS...
