What book are you reading next / finally getting around to / trying on a whim?

[Garf]

Not necessarily thinking entirely moderns, because there's always someone that hasn't gotten around to reading that older book or arc they keep putting off. Not necessarily thinking a top 5 list of everything that is awesome either, I can quite happily read stuff that isn't going to set the world on fire if it was an easy / cheap pickup ... or if it just takes my fancy at the time. Sometimes it's enjoyable reading comics you don't give a hoot about and flinging in the magazine rack and not caring to faff around with bags and boxes (yeah yeah I'm a real anarchist... I know right?).

 

For me it's going to be The Shadow (Garth - Ennis), I, Vampire... and I am going to stray into manga for a couple of weeks and try and finish Death Note.

After the 90's craziness, all i read was manga.

Miss it to some extent

but I still try to keep up with a couple of em

Initial D was always my favorite.

I just started DMZ two days ago. I only read the first arc so far.

[Murrs]

DMZ was awesome back in the day

That and Exmachina was good too

[Holden Caulfield]

Picked up the first 2 volumes of "The Boys" for half price on FCBD. Can't go wrong with Ennis...now just have to find the time to read them uninterrupted.

My buddy just recommended S.H.I.E.L.D.: Architects of Forever, so I picked up the trade. Hopefully getting around to it soon.

[Erndog]

There are SO many books I missed over the years because I was a poor teen or too wrapped up into whatever it was at the same.

 

Books/series I've got on my to read list STILL include:

 

 

- Y The Last Man

- Preacher

- 100 Bullets

- Scalped

- Batman: The Long Halloween (yes, I know!)

- Chew

 

I've got trades of every single one of these on my bookshelf. I really should get started.

Bought Atomic Robo Vol. 1-4 on FCBD and have already read 1 and 2 so I'm looking forward to 3 and 4.

Garf I actually took a recommendation from you on the Sixth Gun thread and read Mage: The Hero Discovered. I bought the original TPBs that still had the airbrushed artwork. Dank series

If everyone's answer on this isn't Y the Last Man, you should delete your account.

[ThoseBackPages]

what if we've read it?

[comicsnyc22]

Read it again!

[ThoseBackPages]

i will be doing just that this summer

[Taco]

I read YTLM last summer. First series I ever read.

[Dissonance-migration]

I'm thinking about taking on the massive task of reading the main stream superhero comics(before the reboots). I've read a ton of Vertigo and Image stuff(and then other stuff like Bone and Strangers in Paradise), but I've only ever read like ten full runs with the flagship Marvel/DC characters. For example, I literally just finished reading the Blackest Night/Brightest Day crossovers and recently read All-Star Supes. The amount of Marvel/DC knowledge I'm missing out on is massive.
