What comics are you reading now?

[Cyberstrike]

Deity: Requiem and Echolands.

Been thinking I can dig them out maybe Spider-Girl and the MC-2 line of course I need to find them and finish Spider-Girl I know I stopped buying it around #75 but it's been so long and I'm not sure if I want to chase down 25+ issues due to finding them and money issues.

Just read the first hard back of something is killing the children

I loved the story. Artwork was meh

The second collection of The New Teen Titans. The first eight issues were extraordinary, so I'm excited to see what 9-16 have to offer. Also picked up the new Spawn/Batman collection of the 90s crossovers: the DC-published one is gutter trash, but I actually dig the Miller/McFarlane team-up knowing it's in the DKR universe.

It's good for the first 90-100 issues, after which it gets weird. It's almost as if you're watching the progression of Dave Sim's mental breakdown in comic form. After a certain point, he started injecting his controversial political views into the stories, which for most people is the main reason to read it. For the best possible experience in reading Cerebus, I'd recommend stopping after the Church and State storyline unless you're intrigued to read further, but that's just my opinion. You may not even like Cerebus if you read it, as it's not for everybody (there's a lot of talking, mostly about political issues within the comic's universe). If you're interested, check it out. Your best bet, unless you're made of money, is to get the trade paperbacks instead of the individual issues.

Hope this helps.

I would love to be captivated by a comic again........

I haven't read a book from my order in probably since November of last year and the only two books I was truly looking forward to had monkey wrenches - I missed an issue or two of Silvestri's Batman Joker mini, and Frank Miller's Ronin 2 has come out once in a blue moon so I haven't read either of them.

Cantwell's Iron Man run was a lot of fun and back in the day it would have been a "good run" but now it's "just another volume". I haven't read a single issue of the new Iron Man volume yet.

Actually... now that I think about it that November thing would be true if it weren't for the recent series of Ron Marz/Ron Lim "Rebirth" mini-series that have been coming out. I've read those. It's basically a series of mini-series featuring old school Marvel cosmic characters and if you string them all together it's basically like an ongoing series. -sigh- Volume-by-volume
