What are your favorite comics?

[carlosjavier]

I was just wondering how many people on filsharingtalk read comic books. I know there is a fairly large file sharing community out there and, as a result, its difficult to really narrow down anything new to read as almost everything is available.

Most of the stuff I read is stuff I already buy and collect anyway. I figure the responses I get here will give me a good indication of whether or not I should ever mention comics in the forum again

Anyway. My alltime favorite comic is The Sandman by Neil Gaiman.

My current favorite is Fables by Bill Willingham and Co. I also greatly enjoy X-Factor. The X-Men are my guilty pleasure, and X-Factor is the best written book amongst the family of books, imo.

Does anyone else have anything they'd like to recommend? I tend to like Vertigo comics and I lean towards planned stories rather than serials. So um.. Savage Dragon is not my cup of tea. I also happen to believe we are in a golden age of comics (or maybe slowly exiting one... after all the comic book movies fade out). And that the early to mid-90s were a dark dark time for fans of good stories.

I tend to buy the trade paperback version. My favourite is probably the Preacher series but I really enjoyed Watchmen, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and From Hell. I have most of the trade paperbacks of The Sandman but I haven't really got round to reading them yet. I should really try and read The Dark Knight Returns as well. I have a load of different ones on my book shelf waiting to be read like Promethea and Tom Strong. I find it difficult to read them on my computer or laptop so I have to buy them if I really want to read them.
