I have to agree with you on Crumb, his work is good, a little demented but still good.

and yeah, I'd count Mad Magazine, it's mostly in comic form, so it's basically a magazine sized comic.

Forgot about Kingdom Come, except for Watchmen, that's one of my all time favorite mini-series (well Watchmen is more of a Max-Series)

Also, now I have to add to my list.

The Saint of Killers.
The Kents.
Shade the Changing Man.
Sandman: Mystery Theater.
Origin
Batman: Black And White
The New Mutants (The Old Series)
WildCats 3.0 (so much better than the previous serious, and much more adult)
Justice Society of America
Gambit
Catwoman (New Series)
Super-Girl (first 20 issues or so)
Green Lantern & Green Arrow Team up issues (Oliver Green & Hal Jordan)
Guy Garner
Lobo
the DC Vs Marvel books (including the crossover universe stories like Lobo the Duck, and DarkClaw)

I could come up with more, but I better quit now, or I'll be typing for hours to come. :blink:

to be exact, although I&#39;m sure your speaking of the first volume, now it&#39;s already up to V3, if you liked the first volume, though you should pick up version 3, it&#39;s a very good series.



If theis list seems a little old-school, remember, I am old school&#33;&#33;

Aren&#39;t we all :D
I&#39;ve been reading comics since I was 5, which was 85&#39;, and I&#39;m still reading them, seems kinda werid though to be calling comics like Spawn old school, but I guess it is starting to become that way, I think it was what 92&#39; when Image came about, already 14 years ago now.
Where did the time go :unsure:

Don&#39;t know if any of you have read it yet, the new Wolverine Mini-Series “The End”. Go check it out, I&#39;ve gotten the first two issues so far, and it&#39;s quite good. It seems to be a direct sequel, of sorts, to Origin.

You know the whole Alpha and Omega thing. Origin was great, and so far The End is as well; just have to wait and see, I&#39;ve heard this will be the death of Wolverine in this mini-series, so just have to wait and see about that as well. ;)

Actually Origin 2 is going to be the direct sequel of Origin.
