Neil Gaiman does some great stuff also.The more I read from him the deeper I get hooked.

I really enjoyed reading Brubaker's Captain America.

Highly recommended

Simon Spurrier’s John Constantine Hellblazer was excellent.

DC Black Label.

Manhattan Projects, Space Riders, WE3, Orbiter, Prophet, God Hates Astronauts, Ed Piskor's stuff, Jesse Jacob's stuff, Descender, Low, 

You named a ton of books - if you had to pick one of those - which would you start with?

Saga

Y the last man

Ex Machina

American Vampires

Deadly Class

[Artboy99]

New 52 Batman, first 20 books is excellent

From that list, Manhattan Projects.  Wonderfully bizarre.  

Black Hammer is another really good title from Image  Dark Horse.

Another vote for Manhattan Projects, and Saga.

Some random highly regarded current titles....

The Boys  (fresh take on heroes)

Something is Killing the Children 

Saga

Nice House on the Lake

And another fresh take on superheroes that I Iike is Astro City

Thanks for your suggestions, everyone! I have a lot of reading to do. Ordered the first book of the Manhattan Projects and a few books of the Wheton X-Men, and when I'm done reading those I'll return to this thread!

Manhattan Projects is good, but quite a bizarre comic book in places. The art might be polarising and not to everyone’s taste.

I like pretty much all of Jonathan Hickman’s mainstream series; FF, Avengers, Secret Wars, X-Men.

Found the right thread 

If you want a tear jerker, try the title "we live"

I can't think of much else that hasn't been said.

I think the Manhattan Projects is a great start.  Bizarre, yes.  In a good way.  

I split my time between 2 locations and the Manhattan Projects is the only one of my many TPB collections that I have moved back and forth... On a plane... As heavy luggage... To read over and over again.  I think I've read it 4 times.  I wouldn't trust anyone who didn't like it.

Read Kamandi..... or you will forever doubt your manhood
