Yeah, but only time will tell how true that statement ends up being.

👆 Valiant, IDW, Darkhorse, Image, and Boom! are all far beyond marvel and dc at this point. Btw, where would you rate x-0 manowar and ninjak as far as tiers go? I was considering making some threads involving them.

Dynamite is good too btw. But you'll rarely see a Red Sonja or Ninjak vs thread on here

My top 3 comic companies atm are:
Valiant
Image
Dynamite

Followed closely by:
Dark Horse
IDW
BOOM!
2000AD

WAAAAAY below them are Marvel/DC.

DC has a lot of good titles now.

I havent read alot of Boom! What do you suggest?

Dynamite is the shit..especially if u like the pulp books from yesteryear.

did I really forget to list dynamite? There used to be a time when Marvel and DC were the only two that I'd list. More recently, my eyes have been opened and it seems like there are too good many companies to list in one go.

As far as boom goes, I'd suggest irredeemable and incorruptible

Detective is probably my favorite book on the stands. If not top 3. Midnighter (when it was around, just got cancelled) was also top 3 material. Same writer is bringing the book back as a mini called Midnighter and Apollo. Nightwing has been a lot of fun. Same with Batgirl and Birds of Prey. Flash has been solid, too.

Omega Men's maxi series was one of the best reviewed books of last and this year. It ended not too long ago. Gotham Academy second season is back and has been solid, etc...

I can also for the european audience recommend Soleil and Delcourt. You have to wait a bit for the translation from french to english, but it's worth it imo.

Just not seeing it. Especially Gotham Academy..pure trash. Flash has wayyyy to many speedsters in his book. Same goes for Bruce, Clark....there are too many characters that do what they do to make it remotely interesting. Plus the needless reboots and costant events...i need an open wiki page just to decipher whats going on. It's abysmal.

OM is good though.

There's also Klaus, UFOlogy, Evil Empire, Nightbreed, Hellraiser, Cthulhu Tales, etc.

Pure trash? LOL. Agree to disagree. It was a well reviewed book, which is why they brought it back for a second season. And it doesn't sell that well.

Forgot Tom King's Batman has been solid, too. Supposedly he might be on the Legion of Super-Heroes.

Grant Morrison writes Klaus, right? Is it worth picking up in trade?

Yes and yes.

Klaus was excellent.

Just picked up a few trades of Ninjak, so I'll give Klaus a go. I want to be able to read the whole thing, vs waiting monthly on good titles.

Nice! Ninjak's ongoing series has been f*cking awesome, and Morrison's Klaus mini was stellar as well(hope he keeps expanding on that mythos with another series.)

Can't go wrong with either one. 👆

I also loved Archer and Armstrong. I fell out of it, but I might pick up the later volumes.

Anything from Valiant is great. Seriously.

My personal favorite titles are:
Eternal Warrior
Divinity
Book of Death
Ninjak
Rai
X-O
Imperium
A&A
Unity
Bloodshot

...And the list goes on.

does anyone have scans when Punisher parked a steamroller on wolverine and took out Daredevil and Spidey?

This was a great scene:

I am very curious to see what Hal eventually metamorphoses into... That will definitely be something to see -- he is literally transforming into pure will. 👆
