I figured that there should be a thread to introduce people to new comics or to comics that may be old and might be a good read for people who are fans of certain characters.Or maybe to give people some incite to what comics they have read that aren't very good that others shouldn't read.So let's do it..what are you reading that others may find interesting or what have you read that is a must read for fans of comics?
The Who's Reading\Read this thread
EMMA FROST MINI
Not speaking as a Fanboy, but dead ass serious. The writing was amazing. The action is hardly there, but the writing and the stories were absolutely phenomenal.
other honorable mentions
- The Dresden Files
- Madame Mirage
- gosh what else is good........idk...to be continued
"I agree with pix on Emma Frost and thank him for convincing me to read it, amazing work!"I read it already..I didn't think it was that great...but then again I more of an action than storyline guy.I'm not saying it was bad though.I think if I didn't like Emma though,I wouldn't have read it.
CYCLOPS & PHOENIX
If you never read this and you see this in your comic shop or for download by torrent or otherwise...Don't do it.This book is terrible.Jean Looks like crap in it...it's poorly drawn and poorly written.

Just read this Vance
"Vance Astro said:I love the art in the book.I mean there was action but it wasn't as action packed as I would have liked.Overall it's a must read I think.That is unless you absolutely hate Emma.I think anyone who reads X-men should pick it up.You can probably get the entire mini now for like 5 bucks."aztek the lost said:See and i LOOOVE Emma but i was so hesitant about picking it up because i was afraid that there wouldn't be any action.

Ghost Rider has been great this volume
Moon Knight has been awesome...a little weird but it's still good.
Final Crisis seems pretty random to me...I almost don't know what's going on at times...but I didn't finish reading Countdown so...maybe that's why.
"Sandman"I've got some big Sandman trade hangin' around somewhere, but I can never bring myself to sit and read it.
My recommendations:
Maus & Maus II - If you haven't read these you really should, they're incredible. Art Spiegelman chronicles his father's escape from Nazi Germany.
Johnny the Homicidal Maniac - Anti-heroism + slapstick + slasher flick = Jhonen Vasqez's finest work.
The Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 2 #50 (491) - 'Doomed Affairs' - This is my favorite Spider-Man story, written by JMS and illustrated by JR Jr. Spidey and MJ are finally reunited after Mary Jane went to California to pursue her career. Also Cap' and DOOM!

True
Agreed
When is it weird?
I never read Countdown, FC makes sense to me
"Vance Astro said:I"ve never read any DC comics before and tried to give FC a try. It's nearly impossible to figure out what in hell's name is going on."Final Crisis seems pretty random to me...I almost don't know what's going on at times...but I didn't finish reading Countdown so...maybe that's why."I never read Countdown, FC makes sense to me"
When is Moon Knight weird? All the time....
First of all he still has Bushman's face....he puts it on in the mirror and than he sees him?
He's always seeing people with missing faces....
He's wearing two different costumes from time to time....
"When is Moon Knight weird? All the time....Well, when you put it that way :PFirst of all he still has Bushman's face....he puts it on in the mirror and than he sees him?He's always seeing people with missing faces....He's wearing two different costumes from time to time...."

"When is Moon Knight weird? All the time....well to be fair Moon Knight has never been normal lol...First of all he still has Bushman's face....he puts it on in the mirror and than he sees him?He's always seeing people with missing faces....He's wearing two different costumes from time to time...."

"Detective is really good. The Hush storyline is great, I love the whole 'Face Off' vibeyeah I love it too
."
I didn't like Hush (the character) that much before but Dini gave the character new depth
Hush is the living prove that there aren't crappy characters, just crappy writers
