CBR ranks the top 100 comics of 2012. Here's the top 10:

 

http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=42909

 

(Links to #'s 11-100 are in the article.)

 

Everyone who picked SAGA will be happy to know that it's been anointed #1 by CBR! It was #2 for me...my #1 (THE MANHATTAN PROJECTS) places #7. Another title I enjoy, PROPHET, is #5.

 

Some other Image titles that have shown up a lot in this thread such as THINK TANK (which I enjoy), BEDLAM (not so much), and PETER PANZERFAUST don't place in the top 100, unfortunately. REVIVAL, however, comes in at #25 and THIEF OF THIEVES comes in at #32.

 

We're not all going to agree, of course, but a fun list to check out.

Yea I was amazed how many of those books I've never heard of or seen. I'm intrigued by a lot of them too.

 

CBR reviews are all over the place sometimes though.
