Those damn indie comics.

 

[Comics N' Toons]

yeah anything that's not DC or MARVEL

 

[Gilpesh]

Walking Dead

 

[fifthfiend]

I hear the name Blankets thrown around a lot. From what I looked at it was ****, but hey, I like superhero comics, so if I hated it you'll probably love it.

 

[AlteredEgo]

Walking Dead

word.

 

[Andy C.]

Walking Dead is far and away my favorite. I'm also digging Loveless.

 

[Majik1387]

Walking Dead
Grimm Fairy Tales
1001 Arabian Nights: The Legend of SInbad
Plague of the Living Dead
ZOMBIES: Eclipse of the Undead

 

[Gilpesh]

Walking Dead
Grimm Fairy Tales
1001 Arabian Nights: The Legend of SInbad
Plague of the Living Dead
ZOMBIES: Eclipse of the Undead

Yeah, that one was pretty good. That whole Zombies! line rocks.

Though you can't go wrong with DC's Vertigo line

^ How is Hellboy non-superhero??

 

[fifthfiend]

The same way Preacher is. Which is to say, he isn't.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Preacher's a superhero book? Jesse had powers, but I wouldn't call him a superhero...

 

[yenaled]

Hellboy is a pulp fantasy book it's not a Superhero book.

The movies might make him out to be a superhero but he isn't in the comics.

Okay, I'm convinced.

In that case I'm going to add Atomic Robo to the list, partly because it's a great comic that fits within the bounds of non-superheroey that we're using, and partly to shame Corp for not having read it yet.

 

[gildea]

palomar
scott pilgrim
the guy diesle travel books
persepolois
super spy (no superheroes)

 

[yenaled]

I have to say I didn't read Atomic Robo because 8-Bit Theater sucked balls.

Then now when I've found out that it's meant to be good I can't seem to get it in trade.
