10 Comics I Consider to be PERFECT

[@jeffkib134]

I have to go with the Dark Phoenix Saga as my favorite story. I love it so much that, even though I have the original single issues, I bought the trade paperback and gave it to my wife and asked her to read it. She had never read a comic book before, so she was hesitant at first. After I bugged her for a while, she decided to humor me. She started reading it at home and quickly got so into it that she started bringing it to work and reading it at lunch. Before I knew it we were discussing the storyline during car rides. It was pretty awesome. I married a good woman! lol

[@SplinkProductions]

Batman: Year One Daredevil: Born Again

[@Bb186fo]

Yeah Frank Miller tops the list for me with DKR, Year One, DD Born Again, whole DD run really, Man without fear, 300, Sin City Books, Ronin wasn't my favorite but it has its moments lol Man what a run of hits! I reread all of these atleast once a year lol Edit: OH and Wolverine mini series!

[@googleislame]

Absolutely agree. These two runs are the Godfather and Godfater II of comic books.

[@codyrogers-hx7fu]

God Loves, Man Kills. Everything essential about the X-Men summed up in story.

[@youlovecomicbooks]

The Dark Knight Returns will always be a favorite of mine.

[@glennsimpson_aka_bobbysaccaro]

i was 15/16 when Crisis on Infinite Earths came out, and was reading it each month. It was everything I ever wanted in a comic book story. I was working a summer job as a bank teller and was reading Crisis #7 in between customers and was so choked up when Supergirl died I was trying to hold it together for the customers. When people ask me who my favorite character is, I kinda want to say "the DC universe/multiverse" because it's really the entirety of the thing that I love so much.

[@mattcapel2437]

X-Factor # 87 has been my long-time go-to for a perfect issue. The team sits down with a psychologist to address some of their recent traumas. Humanizes the whole team in a wonderful way, especially Quicksilver, which is really unexpected. Peter David and Joe Quesada at their finest. A longer and more recent bit of perfection is Tom King and Mitch Gerad’s Mr. Miracle series. They hit all the emotions with that one.

[@FedowJeftichew]

Agreed on this one! This one has stuck with me since I was a kid.

[@mattcapel2437]

@@FedowJeftichew Glad to hear somebody else remembered this issue and found it as compelling as I did. It’s been 30 years since it came out and I still think about it regularly.

[@markleneker9923]

Marvels (1994) and it is interesting because one of the major events in this mini-series was Gwen Stacey-oriented. The Alex Ross art was amazing but the story of a man having an existential crisis in a world of superheroes was very affective. Its one of those reads that rewards you on re-reading as you get older and you relate more to Phil Sheldon. Disney/Marvel should make this a movie or prestige streaming miniseries. If done right it could win Awards.

[@Jay-qv8hq]

Killing joke joke is my All time favorite. I love how absolutely insane the joker is in that book . I love the simplicity of the cover . I even love the square bound format . . Great video .

[@gigaspud]

You'd turn the light off.

[@VesusSheist]

“For the Man Who Has Everything” - Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons, Superman Annual #11 - I’m sure James has read it but everyone else should too

[@garthwhitely9012]

The Amazing Spider-Man #229 and #230, Nothing Can Stop The Juggernaut part 1&2. This story shows why Spider-Man can stop the unstoppable using his determination, wits and heart. One of the greatest stories of Spider-Man I’ve ever read

[@neilsolo]

It even inspired the episode from Spider man and his amazing friends (the origin of fire star) great covers also!

[@kyleelmore7250]

One of the comic books that got me to really start collecting comics is Kingdom Come by Mark Waid and Alex Ross. This story was exactly what I wanted to read because I always knew about the Dc universe but to actually read a story that is basically the end of the DC universe in a conclusion sort of way was really fascinating to me. Also this story is what got me to love my favorite artist Alex Ross who is so passionate and skillful in his artwork that it just makes you want to sit there and look at the panels for hours.

[@michaelstone446]

As someone else mentioned, Swamp Thing 34 - 50 "American Gothic" is fantastic, one of Alan Moore's greatest stories. Right up there with Watchmen, From Hell, The Killing Joke, V for Vendetta, etc. Along with the wonderful artwork of John Totleben and Steven Bissette.

[@kenkenny6196]

In the early 2000's I went through a dark time in my life (with drugs) that comic would be a reminder to me NOT to ever relapse again. I have been a subscriber to your channel for a while now, keep up the good work and your very informational videos. God bless you brother!!!

[@ehrenguzman831]

Infinity Gauntlet is a perfect story. It is incredibly accessible to readers that haven’t read all the Marvel space stories and it is so influential it has essentially changed all of modern pop culture as its influence for the first couple phases of Marvel movies.

[@charlesversfelt]

I loved Infinity Gauntlet and the entire lead up to it when Thanos returned in the Silver Surfer.

[@jasonwhite9705]

My favorite story is Kraven's Last Hunt. Sad but good.

[@ianellis395]

The Long Halloween 🎃

[@andrewhayden1045]

Death in the family was the story that got me reading Comics and is still my favorite story line.

[@Will-T24]

Definitely Alan Moore’s Superman Annual 11: “For The Man Who Has Everything”!

[@luistoomuch]

100%

[@homeaccount5943]

I cried like a baby when I read that. It was like watching my childhood die.

[@TomasRagarin]

Spider-Man vs. Wolverine. A great story, dark and stark contrast between Wolverine and Spider-Man. Their views and how they respond to the story. It also gives a hint to Wolverine's vast history. The art is top tier story telling. Finally, the suicide by cop manipulation is the chef's kiss to the end of the fight. It's affordable and a must own book by both Wolverine or Spider-Man fans.

[@chriscampanozzi6516]

Agree 100 percent. Great book.

[@hectorgomeziv1689]

yk its a good day when James uploads (both daredevil: bullseye and daredevil: hell breaks loose are fantastic reads)

[@oxsolo]

Spiderman Blue is so good, as is just about everything Loeb and Sale collaborated on. Gaiman's Sandman is my perfect comic book story. It's so epic and involved and it feels like it's one singular work, which is hard to pull off over that many issues.

[@jeffstanley6013]

Great idea for a video! Nice list! Favorite stories: Days Of Future Past, Long Halloween, Watchmen and Marvels. Favorite standalone issue: Many (LOL), but one that will likely not be mentioned by anyone else: Legends Of The Dark Knight #58. In an anthology series full of 3-5 issue standalone stories, it was a 1-issue story that, while somewhat derivative, was still well written and with very nice artwork (great underrated cover too).

[@uglyewok6715]

Spider-Man Blue is when comics transcends throw-away comics and becomes true art.

[@hcttolley]

It’s so hard to pick a favorite story as there are so many that I think are flawless but I would say for me it is between the Killing Joke and dr strange dr doom triumph and torment. Both are just fantastic stories that take such perfect looks at iconic characters and show they are much more complex than one may think

[@Barada73]

Spider-Man vs. Wolverine, from 1987, and the Kraven’s Last Hunt storyline. I was just getting into comics when these came out and they are some of the stories that made me into a lifelong fan of the medium.

[@siumaisifu]

All Star Superman - Showing Superman at his weakest point, knowing that he's going to die. It also had some amazing mini-stories that were fun, exciting, emotional, and overall entertaining.

[@57fendervibrolux]

Marvel Fanfare #1 has a story in the back that I think is my single favorite comic story. I read it every year before Christmas and shed a tear every single time. It’s a Daredevil story called “Snow” and is written by Roger McKenzie with art by Paul Smith and Terry Austin. My favorite Christmas story ever. You should do top 10 holiday issue videos! Love your show so much!!!

[@clintstevens6831]

Cool video. I plan to check some of these out. I remember crying when Supergirl died in Crisis on Infinite Earths, even though I've never been a Supergirl fan. For me, that's the core of good storytelling--make the audience care about your characters.

[@andresperez5430]

For me it was Superman 75. That last panel hit hard "For this is the day that a Superman died." When that issue came out and everything leading up to it was an experience to be a part of back then.

[@jakes.9023]

About to mention that one. The whole monologue is hard to read without choking up.

[@lorddjarjar2836]

so good i still have the poster up in my room from the poly bag

[@MattK0074]

My favorite issue from my all-time favorite series: The Sandman no. 13, “Men of Good Fortune.”

[@BrooksSeanRobinson]

When I was a kid the Daredevil Born Again storyline blew my mind.

[@jasonmcneese556]

Swamp Think Volume 2 is my favorite run of comics EVER! Keep making these videos, I’ll keep watching.

[@glennhill1707]

Amazing Spider-Man #121 and #122. You got to include these two. When I read these as a kid, I was stunned/shocked. I loved Gwen Stacy.

[@jonathongibson7895]

Starman by James Robinson and Tony Harris every part of it the relationship between Jack and his dad Ted the birthday issues the shades story, the themes of generational divide and family legacy just all comes together with incredible characterisation and art from Tony Harris who is an incredible panelist as well just so good. There are other great runs I could go to and spider-man is my favourite character but Jack knights story is just something I think everyone should give a go

[@RS-ub9gw]

I'll have to say. My all time favorite storyline that I loved then and now is the Death of Superman. From the first cameo of Doomsday through the death of superman, funeral of a friend and 3 new supermen. Loved it but hey I'm a 90s kids lol. Love your videos. Keep it up

[@squashchefan]

Swamp Thing issue 21 is my perfect single issue. Alan Moore turned the origin story on its head and actually made it believable. And turned the series into a proper horror comic

[@MintHunterComics]

I full heartedly agree. Read issue 56 when you can

[@ascorvinus]

My favorite single issue is Saga of the Swamp Thing 21. It’s a retcon that makes so much sense and opens up so many possibilities, while still completely respecting everything that came before. For a run, I’d have to go off the beaten path and pick Simon Furman’s original Transformers run, 56-80. I was reading it in junior high and high school, and it kept me invested in the Transformers long after I should have lost interest. It basically created a lore for the Transformers.

[@tedbell7948]

I completely agree with the walking dead.. one of the things I love about it is that you get the complete story with the art and the dialogue, and there is no narration. I feel that makes it very unique

[@Criner05]

That's one thing I loved about The Walking Dead. There was never any narration. Just dialogue. Narrations can make you get lost.

[@kazerzozay]

As a life long dc fan DC new frontier is probably my favortie story.

[@SeansAnthology]

Hawkeye #11 should have been in the show. It's hands down one of my favorite comics of all time.

[@nathanchaffin6380]

Blacksad. Hellboy: Bones of Giants. Kingdom come. Mister Miracle. Wonderwoman: Dead Earth. Supergirl: woman of tomorrow. TMNT: City fall. Shedder in Hell. Daredevil: born again. Man without fear. New Avengers. Superman Annual: For the man that has everthing. Crisis on Infinite Earths. Beta Ray Bill. All of Ultimate Spider-man.. The list goes on and on. There's just soooo much.

[@ryanstoick601]

"The Return of Barry Allen" from Mark Waid's run on Flash in the mid-90s. It was a perfect run of issues with a finale in #79 that was AMAZING! The Flash is my favorite character. And this storyline, and especially that issue, couldn't have been better!

[@BrianCenti-j4d]

Props to you for doing something like this for us, James. I have two stories, cannot pick between the two. Amazing spider man # 121 & 122. That issue cut right through me like no other comic book ever did, and than sering Peter completely lose it in the next issue was incredible. X- Men # 137 seeing jean die the way she did, life changing for me in the comic book world. If i win or lose no worries, just very happpy to be here with you snd to read what all the others have added. Thanks again James 😊😅😂

[@chrisballard6410]

My personal 5 Perfect Single Issues: 1. The Sandman #19: A Midsummer Night’s Dream 2. Swamp Thing #60: Loving the Alien 3. Dark Horse Presents #62 4. Fantastic Four #258 5. Empire by Sam Delany and Howard Chaykin

[@bdragonflyfox]

Amazing Spider-Man 248, "The kid who collected Spider-Man" is a favourite story of mine.

[@robertzeleznik8124]

This one got me

[@robertzeleznik8124]

Got me good .

[@WitchKing73]

Great video as usual. Been neat to see you grow & killing it! Have to agree with you about Y: The Last Man. Think that was maybe the last time a comic moved me to such a degree.

[@gman-ts8bf]

For myself James, I read it 40 years ago when it came off the stand. The Amazing Spider-man #248 backup story, The kid who collects Spider-man. For those who never read it, definitely one that shocked a young boy 40 years ago and one that resonates still to this day as I'm sure it was my first discussion on that horrible disease. The last panel really pulls at the heart strings and as a proud dad of of 2 older teens, hits home. One of the main reasons I still collect to this day. I'm going to have to check out some of your suggestions. Thanks and have a great day.

[@Kirok2005]

Me too! Bought it brand new at age 19, and wow, I freakin' sobbed. And 40 years later, my wife is a breast cancer survivor. That last panel is devastating, heartbreaking, but also a great reminder of why Peter Parker has the biggest heart of all.

[@gregoryliedtka7510]

Spider-Man Life Story is an awesome 6 issue condensed spidermans entire journey.

[@MintHunterComics]

YES!!!! Ugh forgot about that one

[@loverboi5992]

Gotta be ultimate spider-man, I love the dialogue specifically for how it builds the characters so organically

[@bootheroy42]

I haven't completed the run or pulled the trigger on the omnibus, but the Netflix series got me into the Sandman. Great stuff so far.

[@dandare1270]

"Daredevil: The Man Without Fear" by Frank Miller and John Romita Jr. I had just started buying and reading comics again and I found this limited series in my LCS. I decided to give it a try and My God!! I think it played a pivotal role in dragging me deep into the medium again. Never ever left,,, :)

[@macavity13]

I remember enjoying the Spider-Man #8-12 "Perceptions" storyline. A bunch of twists + a team-up w/ Wolverine.

[@darthrooster1]

Batman: Death in the Family, Crisis on Infinite Earths, and Sandman. Great stories there.

[@leemarko]

Starman by Robinson is my desert island comic for sure. And THANK YOU for mentioning Ostrander's Spectre. I absolutely love that book.

[@jerrodclark8592]

Sandman #4 "Hope in Hell." It's a perfect comic book. There isn't another single issue I can enjoy over and over again.

[@louben987]

Snake Eyes Declassified does a great job at explaining his back story, and GI Joe 21 is my favorite issue. It still amazes me that even without dialog, you can still "here" what they are saying and thinking!

[@AidanJmurphy]

The greatest comic I’ve ever read has to be The Night Gwen Stacy Died. I’ve been reading comics since I was 6, I’m now 17. As a kid I grew up reading all of ASM, and Gwen was my favorite character. When her death occurred I cried, at the time I was around 8 or 9. Now 8 years later I’ve read that arc around 20 times, it still feels surreal. But yea that’s my favorite, thanks James

[@MintHunterComics]

Many would agree!

[@michaelthomas3348]

Gotta agree with Y: the last man & The Walking Dead, they are incredible reads! That run of Hawkeye is really really good.

[@julianviada8502]

greetings from Argentina!, My favorite story of all time its HELLBLAZER: DANGEROUS HABITS, the creativity of john constantine to get out of that mess, the anxiety and the athmosphere took my breath away.

[@jlimbac0]

I guess perfect for me is Watchmen. Just such an excellent series. Flaws and all.

[@chris-ComicRaven]

Great video sir thank you! My favorite story is a hard one, I found Marvel/DC in the late 80's and Swamp Thing's American Gothic blew my mind to the depths of how deep a comic can go. Watchmen was another one followed by yet another Alan Moore great MiracleMan. I can thank my Uncle who's in the comic industry for such an eye opening experience.

[@msmittysmitty83]

A comic that still holds up...Defenders 50 Keith Giffin doing a Kirby style, with Klaus Jannsen inking. David Kraft writes a story that recalls some of Steranko's Shield issues. Early Moon Knight appearance , and the Defenders battle The Zodiac, so we get a ton of crazy villans...perfect comic

[@BoneClawsComics]

You mentioned mine... Blackest Night. The entire run is fantastic.

[@roggoblin]

The New Teen Titans Judas Contract. One of my favorites. Starman by James Robinson, That whole series was so well done.

[@keithr9640]

Avengers 277, the culmination of the Under Siege storyline. Baron Zemo ripping the picture of Steve Rogers mother and his stoic anger when it happens and his anguish over at the end is heartbreaking. Add in Roger Sterns great writing John Buscemas amazing art and for my money it’s a perfect comic.

[@charlesversfelt]

My favorite comic story was the Jim Starlin Warlock series of the 1970s: Strange Tales #178-181, Warlock #9-15, Avengers Annual #7 and Marvel Two In One Annual #2. The story of Warlock’s struggle with his future self, the Magus, and his ultimate death as well as the death of Thanos, a timeless classic. I also note a very funny scene in Two in One where Thing is reading Salems Lot. I won’t spoil it. Another series, often mentioned, the Dark Phoenix saga. For single issue stories, Amazing Spider-Man Annuals #14 and 15 were both terrific stories by Frank Miller, one had the Punisher, the other had Dr Strange. I think I liked the Dr Strange issue better. I can recommend others, but that’s my picks for now. Thanks Edit I have to edit this in. Forgive my lean into the Bronze Age, and I confess that I have a sentimental attachment to this book. It was the first comic book I saved to begin my collection in 1974 at age 8. But this book is perfect in so many ways. Batman #255 was a Dc 100 page super spectacular with several awesome stories. Story 1 was the “new” story at the time. Art by Neal Adams and Batman vs a werewolf. Need i say more to tell you it was great. Story #2 was a reprint from the early Silver Age, one which was important to Batman continuity prior to Crisis. Batman learns that his father once wore a Batman costume. He learns that Joe Chill was not just a random thief who killed his parents but was hired by Lew Moxin to kill them… and Batman tracks down Moxin who dies at the end of the story. (I love stories that provide new details to origins, especially when they can fit it with the original story without retcon) The next reprint stories featured Alfred and Robin fighting a bizarre villain called Crazy Quilt. Just weird fun. Finally, the last story was a reprint from the 1960s where Batman and Robin fought the Outsider, an awesome villain. The story had a surprise ending I won’t reveal. This issue is one I highly recommend buying and reading. It’s generally pretty affordable.

[@cheesier5153]

Kevin smiths green arrow run is near perfect in my eyes, it hasn’t aged great but it’s a love letter to dc as a whole and brought the Ollie we all know and love back

[@DarthBleak]

I'd go with Wolverine solo series between him losing his adamantium to him gaining it back in issue 100. Without the metal, he begins to turn more animalistic, resisting the urge, and then embracing it only to get his metal back in which almost feels tragic.

[@ironspiderman100]

I feel like these are kind of obvious but Ultimate Spider-Man and Invincible. I reread those both every year because to me they are perfect. Ultimate Spider-Man 160 is also 1 of only 2 comic books to make me cry. Spider-Man Life Story is also up there. I never thought of events being perfect but I agree, Blackest Night is excellent. Whether you read just the main event/Green Lantern series or all the tie ins, there is nothing but good story and art.

[@williambaldridge1203]

I think my favorite comic book of all times is one I remember from when I was a kid, and that's superman # 149. It was an imaginary story of the death of superman. Lex Luther was finally successful in killing Superman.

[@thewand3r3r45]

The Walking Dead is entirely about Rick Grimes, it says those exact words in the first page of the comic books so once the show “killed him off” the show should’ve stopped existing

[@NorthAreUp]

The final issue of invincible. Good way to end it and brings it to a satisfying ending

[@NextGenCollector]

Answers the question, what will you have after 500 years…awesome

[@NextGenCollector]

I am definitely going to give Y: The Last Man a shot - I LOVE Brian Vaughans work on Saga so you’ve got me excited to check it out.

[@user-yg9sc6gc1r]

It's epic

[@balloneyblows]

It is so good you won't regret it. Just keep the tissues on hand when you hit the last couple of issues

[@joshuawade2855]

It was the first non-superhero comic that I ever read as a kid. THE story that showed me some of the scope of what this medium can do. It meant the world to me and I really hope you enjoy it!

[@Gazerbeamz]

I think Batman’s Red Rain is awesome. Perfect art and a great story.

[@commodorerook3797]

I would have added Iron Man #149-150. Such a fantastic story. Would have been an awesome movie!

[@mrgent9612]

Awesome video as always - Green Lantern 181 - The first issue i can remember buying - Hal quits the GL corps, started a lifelong Green Lantern collection.

[@cowbelltv4865]

Thx for the list. Here are two favorite single issues - Fantastic Four 51 (This Man, This Monster) & FF 236 (Terror in a Tiny Town).

[@johnnydropkicks]

I own and have read “Spider-Man: Blue” #1-6, Hawkeye #11 and the entire “The Walking Dead” series - albeit in compendium form, and I fully agree with James that they are amazing. “The Walking Dead” series, in particular, is so amazing that it definitely in my top 3, if not number one. One can probably pick up all four compendiums for less than $150 on the secondary market - and it is worth every penny. You can also pick up the trades at your local library; which is what I would do as they were released every six months instead of every four years like the compendiums. Thanks for this list, James. It reminded me of a few things I had been meaning to eventually read. 👍

[@HobbyistFreePress]

Action Comics Annual #2 (1989) is my perfect single issue comic. Some of the best Superman writers and artists combined on one issue that tells an amazing story. 10/10

[@jeremywlochal5969]

I picked up the Green Lantern #85 when I was a kid, not knowing the one I bought was a reprint. It was bagged with a couple other books from the Green Lantern/Green Arrow stories, all of them reprints. At least I got to enjoy the stories! One of my favorite single comic stories was from the McFarlane Spider man Series, Spider-man #17.

[@jesseduran7353]

I started my journey with comics after Batman 89’ came out in theaters at 9 years old. Around that time started the issues with Tim Drake and the death of his parents in Detective Comics through becoming Robin in Batman. My friends and I were OBSESSED with this run and still have such fond memories. That’s why it was a no brainer getting a CGC 9.8 Batman #442 from you at the last claim sale.

[@bertosalazar9187]

The Ultimate Death of Spider-Man. Loved it. Seeing everyone react to his death was heartbreaking.

[@samuelcatoe1927]

ASM 248. That one will pull your heart so hard.

[@comix6358]

Couldn't agree more with starting the list with Spider-Man Blue, one of my favorite comics of all time and definitely made me tear up at the end. IMO I would have also added Batman The Killing Joke. Some people may say the ending is what does not make it perfect but I'd disagree because the ending is the exact thing that makes you think, talk and have discussions and conversations about it with fellow comic book fans which at the end of the day is the whole point, sharing our love of comics with each other.

[@havok33777]

Loved Tom King’s Mister Miracle run. Silver Surfer Requiem was one I picked up off the shelf based just on the cover art and I was so glad that I did.

[@not-an-astr0naut]

I started reading comics in college and Donny Cate's Thanos wins is the run that got me hooked.

[@shawniboii]

agree with the blackest night, really sparked my interest in the green lantern run really love the dc crossovers

[@neilferreira7423]

Amazing Spider-Man 136-137. Harry Osborne becomes the Green goblin. The build up is great and I remember reading it as a kid thinking this is pretty heavy stuff.

[@CireWorrom]

Supernatural Thrillers #3: The Valley of the Worm. Read this comic if you have not had the chance. Roy Thomas and Gil Kane excellence! This 20-page one-shot could easily be turned into a 3-hour movie epic. Shockingly good, how dense this is without sacrificing any flow. Check it out!

[@later_daze_4080]

Preacher. The entire series.

[@chrisatherton7840]

Ultimate Spider-Man is the greatest comic series I’ve ever read. Captures the character of Peter Parker perfectly.

[@christopherashmore7878]

Batman/ Vengeance of Bane is my all time best story. The book captivated me towards Bane. His life and struggle in prison and later his interest in Batman and the mercy Batman would show to others. Truly one of the best stories and artwork in the DC universe!

[@Dr-Guion]

Skreemer (and specially the last issue in the series) is not only a gut punch but also blew my mind when I read for the first time. Peter Milligan is such an underrated writer, one of the most consistent and versatile of them all.

[@joshuawade2855]

Jeff Lemire's The Underwater Welder was great the first time I read it, and as I approach fatherhood myself I understood the full scope of it even better on the 2nd read. An absolutely perfect masterpiece!

[@brendandaley9355]

Hickmans Fantastic Four run. He nails the family dynamics and for me personally ha two of my favorite scenes in comics. First when Thor and Hulk allow Thing to fight them after the death of Johnny Storm because they can take what he needs to let out. second when Franklin saves the day while Nathaniel Richards explains it was only possible because Every boy deserves a father

[@RichardFong]

Hawkeye: My Live As A Weapon Superman: Secret Identity

[@cryptonikman]

The Spectre by Ostrander is one of my favorite runs of all time. I have been wanting an omni set of the series for years.

[@shanehannafey1361]

Maybe not a perfect single issue, but perfect for me. Master of Kung Fu Annual #1. Loved it as a kid. Read it and re-read it. I do not know what happened to my original, but I bought another copy a few years ago and I still love it and glad I have it again!! If you want me to say a perfect series / story, there is not enough love for Fables. I own every issue and loved the storyline all the way to the end. I watched Walking Dead until the bitter end, but it got really bad. The comic series is perfect. I have the whole series in trades and LOVE it!!

[@markmmm667]

ASM Vol. 1 31-33 is my favorite. Spidey changed in an important way. Agree with your Spectre pick. Also love the Spectre run in Adventure Comics. Green Lantern O'Neil/Adams run. TWD was what got me back into comics, so have to agree with you on that one as well.

[@SupergirlOnFire6]

One of my recent all time favorites is Far Sector. It’s just a fun, stand alone, murder mystery in space. Even if you’d never hear of Green Lantern, it would still be a great read! The writer, N.K. Jemisin is an award winning Sci-Fi/ Fantasy author who wrote one of my favorite Sci-Fi books:The Fifth Season.
