The Dresden Files > DF Comic Books
Style of Comics You Read
LadyHitchhiker:
I read
League of Extraordinary Gentleman
Star Trek (of all varieties ... even the old 60s versions)
Sam & Max
Any of Jhonen Vasquez's works
The Gunslinger (Dark Tower)
rmcf:
If you liked Transmet you would probably like The Boys, an anti-superhero, dark, violent, well written series by Garth Ennis.
I thought Wanted was really good too, but I can't quite figure out what the movie and the book will have in common aside from the name.
df2506:
I don't read too many regular comics anymore. I'm mostly getting trades now, expect for Dresden Files and occassionally an issue of Ultimate Spiderman. (aside: although I did get to pick up some extra comics this week: Booster Gold, Wolverine, Justice Society, the Spirit. BG, Wolverine, and JS were all really good).
The ones I just HAVE to collect in trades/hardcover/etc:
Invincible (Image): Great book. Its a superhero book, but unlike anything else out there. This book takes chances and keeps suprising me.
The Dark Tower: I have the first hardcover and I plan to get the second one! I'm a big fan of the DT books & comics.
Anything by Dwight L. MacPherson: Really good creator. Read his comic, Edgar Allan Poo, recently and its excellent. Other books coming up: Kid Houdini, Edgar Allan Poo 2, M-Theory (a retro sci-fi pulp book), and more!
Anything by Jeph Loeb/Tim Sale: Batman: The Long Halloween, Batman: Dark Victory, Superman For All Seasons, Daredevil: Yellow, Spiderman: Blue! All great comics, imo. I also need to get Catwoman: When In Rome and Hulk: Grey. Coming soon: Captain America: White! These guys are great team, imo.
So, anyway, I collect (off and on) classic Marvel/DC stuff, stuff based off of novels, and comics from Image.
I also really liked the new issue of Wolverine and the comic Booster Gold (time traveling superhero) and plan to check out trades for both.
I want to check out some of Alan Moore's ABC comics in trades too (especially Top 10, Tomorrow Stories, and Tom Strong).
And I definitly can't wait to read more Dresden Files comics!

Astonishing X-Men by Joss Whedon and John Cassaday #1-24 is an excellent read and the art is absolutely stunning. The new Thor run has been good also but I'm biased ,I'm a huge Thor and Norse myth nut. Trades of Gaimans Sandman are good and the Conan series from Dark Horse is good but once again I'm a huge REH and Conan fan. Mike Mignola's Hellboy is also an excellent read pick up the trade paper backs. The new Iron Fist series from Marvel has also been really good. Planetary by Warren Ellis and John Cassaday was a great read buy the trade paperbacks they're worth it.
OZ:
Planetary was incredible. As a teenager I liked reading the old pulp heroes (Doc Savage, the Shadow, G-8 the Flying Ace, etc.) I loved how the series included versions of them along with the more "modern" heroes. I also like the Goon although I admit I haven't read every issue.
