Best single comic: Death Of Superman
Best storyline: Sinestro Corps War (Soon to be Blackest night)
Best comic (title): JLA, or Green Lantern
Best crossover: I have no idea
i doubt many people have been keeping up with "The Mighty." if not, i highly recommend you do so, asap.
it is honestly shaping up to be one of the better series' i've read in a very long time - every issue leaves me wanting more [which is something i rarely say about any comics.] the morbid/sinister twists and turns the main character 'alpha one' has taken throughout the past few issues is, oddly enough, quite refreshing. he is both the protagonist AND antagonist all wrapped up into one very well written character.

I'm going to say Brubaker's/Diggle's Daredevil runs.
Outstandingly good.
I think Brubaker's Captain America work is up there as one of my favourite runs of recent times. Well, it is.
Also, anything Dan Abnett touches. Because he's just on fire.
By the way, if anyone is interested, I have a comic/music (Primarily comic) review blog. I'm considering some guest contributors now and then. Just throwing it out there.
If you write and you're interested, let me know.
Not Battlehammer, but I'll accept Kris Blaze. I do have limits.
Best single comic: Green Lantern v3, #50. The culmination of Hal's descent into madness and grief was some pretty emotional stuff. I mean, seeing Hal break down in tears, a grown man who was essentially without fear, affected me in a way not many comics have since. And watching him turn on the Corps and Guardians was gripping for me, especially after growing up reading older GL titles when I got my hands on them. Despite the fact it was later explained that Parallax was the embodiment of fear, the story is still probably one of the best GL tales of all time.
Best storyline: A toss up between Kingdom Come or Justice. KC was a harrowing tale of the future of heroics whereas Justice was the definitive Justice League story. The fact that Captain Marvel, a longtime favorite character of mine, was given first class treatment like never before (in both storylines) was also a plus.
Best comic (title): Thor. It doesn't get more epic than Thor. From the early Kirby/Lee days on up, I've not been let down yet.
Best crossover: To date, Sinestro Corps War, though I'm sure Blackest Night will eclipse that.
Best single comic: Ultimate X Men 41. Nice one off story about a kid who can't control his power and kills his whole town.
Best storyline: KC passes the re-read test.
Best comic (title): Always look forward to Invincible.
Best crossover: I liked Onslaught, probably because it was when I started reading comics and was the first crossover I bought/read.
