Best/top comic lists and award winners of 2014

I thought maybe a separate thread for ongoing "Best of.." and "Top..." lists for 2014 would be cool to see so if you see them, please add them. I think this will also expand other books outside of our Image heavy picks. :)

Nice! There are going to be a lot of these in the next week or two.

 

Almost all focus on monthly comics, though. AV Club has a separate list for graphic novels:

Nice to see both SECONDS and THE WRENCHIES make that list.

 

Here's Multiversity's Best Graphic Novel list:

SECONDS places #1 with THE WRENCHIES at #2. Both worth checking out. Word of warning about THE WRENCHIES: It is not an easy read. But it is the most beautiful and bonkers comic I've read all year. It's PROPHET in color. If you could handle PROPHET, then you can handle this. For me, it's worth it for the art alone, and I rarely ever say that.

What a joke!!!

The Wake and Pretty Deadly as on-going series?

 

Haha ! Bad example. I just noticed the date, January 6 2014. I'll attempt to be more selective. lol

 

Paste Magazine's Top 25 Comics of 2014

 

It upsets me to see Black Science, Letter 44, Rat Queens, the Wraith and Sheltered missing from most/all lists.

 

I wouldn't expect to see the following, but I also love me some Revival, Clone (low print count) or The Walking Dead (too easy of a choice).

 

Wraith is the best macabre comedy I've ever read --- 'a one whore town' :roflmao:

Ninja edit: that list is dated from Jan-2014.

 

With respect to Pretty Deadly being an on-going series, I may have spoke too soon:

Pretty Deadlier for 2015

And which would those be? (shrug)

 

Did you read any of them?

The description of 'Rai' made me want to read it... though I do have mixed feelings about their ability to build a 'best of' list after reading what they said about Multiversity. Why would you add something to a list such as this if you admit you can't understand it?

It took a little reading for me to get the Invisibles when those first came out but it grew on me. That eventually became must read entertainment for me. I was intrigued a little before I got the big picture...or they could just be big dummies ! :banana:

Not every best of list is going to be a precise match for your pull list. Also, Santa isn't real.
