Help me and my simple mind

[Norkie]

Hello there can any of you fine gentel snowflakes help me with this problem? Recently I have been getting really bored and have thought of stop collecting/reading comics. For an exception of a few books nothing really grabs me anymore. The books I read mainy come from marvel with the exceptions of Spawn and KOTOR which I purchased out of despreation so If anybody can give me some titles I can try out I will be forver greatfull because I dont really want to stop.

 

[The Question]

Well, we have to know: What kinds of comics do you like?

 

[Norkie]

Oh yes of course im sorry this is the list of titles im reading right now.
Avengers Inititive
Mighty Avengers
The Order
Thor
All the WWH titles
Ghost Rider
Amazing spider-man
New Avengers
New X-men
X-men
Uncanny X-men
Spawn
Starwars KOTOR
Exiles
x-factor
All the Annhilation ConQuest Titles
Sub Mariner
Wolverine
Wolverine Origins
Cable/Deadpool
Captain America
Those are pretty much all I read.

 

[The Question]

Well, if you want some bad arse sci fi/super hero action with an ensemble cast, Grant Morrison's run on JLA isn't a bad start. So is Giffen/DeMattes/Maguire's Justice League, although it tends to blend action and comedy quite a bit. Not necessairily for everyone. If you're into books focusing on a younger cast, and like a good laugh, Young Justice is a good pick. Also, if you're a Ghost Rider fan, and want some good fantasy/horror stories, Hellblazer's good. Although, with the exception of a few dropped names every now and then, there's pretty much no traditional super heroics going on there.

Also, if you want to revitalize your passion for the Marvel Universe, look no further than Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross' "Marvels."

It's the history of the Marvel Universe, told from the perspective of a photojournalist working for the Daily Bugle named Phil Sheldon.

As far as Marvel titles go, I collect mostly all of those, and except for the Wolvie titles, I think it's a pretty good list.

If you're bored with the superhero genre, maybe try some of the things suggested in the Official Recommendations thread. Fables, Invincible, and Walking Dead are always a good starting place.


Edit : I almost bolded the X-Men also, but I hate Bachalo's art. Some people don't, and I'll give it a pass and say it's my own personal bias.

Yes, definitely look past just Marvel titles and just superhero titles. Invincible is the best superhero book on the planet, and DC's Vertigo Imprint will restore your interest in comics guaranteed. Here's the Official Recommendations Thread ILC mentioned
