Wow, this thread hasn't been touched in longer than I thought.

I just read the first trade of Near Death.

Good read. Each issue is pretty much a standalone story but there is an overarching plot. More than most comics this would be a good one to buy in single issues. However the trade collects the first five issues for only $10. Also, I'm friendly with the artist online, who is the nicest and most supportive guy around.

Can't believe I didn't share this earlier:

Mouse Guard is such a fantastic comic.

Here is my recommendation, Locke and Key

I feel like Petersen is taking his sweet time with the recent books. Waiting forever for the next collection. But I am proud to say that I own an original work from Winter 1152. I can't find an image of it, but it's one of the pages from the funeral at the end showing all the guard mice. The art is just fantastic.

And I love Locke and Key as well.

Tokugawa hack it. My only comic following.

Saga by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples is really, really good.

Just finished the sixth and most recent issue last night...can't wait for the next one. It kind of feels like Star Wars, but weirder. Great characters and a really interesting story.

Disclaimer: There is nudity, gore, and sex, but it's not based around those things or good because of them. It uses those themes to punctuate moments.

^Saga is indeed quite good.


An anthology coming out October 10th.
