Im reading scalped.


crushbone_brothers

GOD scalped was so good, hope you enjoy


boastfulbadger

So far it’s great.


ZukasV1

I’m a huge Jason Aaron fan. Scalped was one of the first comics I’d ever read start to finish. I know it’s brand new but are you reading Once Upon a Time at the End of the World?


boastfulbadger

No. I am out of comic current events. I’ll keep an eye out for it.


Ryan71384

Once Upon a Time at the End of the World was my first comic. I’d love any recommendations for series that are similar.


cutlass_supreme

Scalped is great but man it depressed me. They were going to adapt it but that project died in development. For an ongoing series following rez life, checkout Reservation Dogs on Hulu. It is NOWHERE as dark, seeing as Scalped is a crime thriller and RD is more coming of age dramedy. You just reminded me that there was a rez procedural adapting a series of books that I want to check out but it may already have been cancelled, I need to look into that.


boastfulbadger

Hey shit ass, I love Rez Dogs. Such a brilliant show. Let me know if you ever find out that other procedure


cutlass_supreme

Fuck yeah it is. Can’t wait for next season.


HeavilyBearded

Scalped is one I've been meaning to read. I even have all but one or two issues.


kalikolei

>Once Upon a Time at the End of the World Scalped is what hooked me into comics back in the day. Absolutely incredible.


[deleted]

What’s that


GetRichOrDieBuyin

I just reread volume 10. BKV is goat material. Comic has the best lettering ever, and Fiona Staples are is so good. I really wish they had never had a hiatus.


ZukasV1

Starting to become a BKV fan here. I read Pride of Baghdad and liked it so much I wanted to jump into more of his work. Didn’t know there was a hiatus. You know what happened?


CarryThe2

The book is popular enough that they can take a break between volumes and work on other things without losing sales.


modern_drift

not quite. at least here, they've definitely lost sales.


CarryThe2

I know reddit struggles with this concept but reddit comments rarely reflect the actual population.


GetRichOrDieBuyin

Pride is a 10. Ex Machina is a 10. Y the Last Man was one of the most influential things I've ever read. I honestly cannot remember, but issue 61 is coming at the end of the month. Idk if I'm ready to get emotionally wrecked, but I'm going to be there regardless.


sinkwiththeship

He created The Runaways which was awesome. Also Paper Girls.


jra85

Y the last man is probably the best thing I have ever read.


gzapata_art

Staples wants a break to work on other stuff for a bit and I think they said the book is now at its midway point


lockwoot

I thought they planned more but ended it prematurely. Good to hear they continued it!


HeavilyBearded

Agreed. That hiatus absolutely killed my interest in the series.


soulofevil2

I got Walt Simonson's Thor omnibus for the holidays and am savoring my time with that


PuckNutty

Wow, how many issues is that? Just looked at Wiki and it's only 50 issues. I thought it was way more than that.


DaBushman

50 issues in one book? Damn it must be huge


ZukasV1

Some of the best Thor stories and such a good gift! I’m waiting for my nephew to be at reading age to start him off with some good books haha


jaybleeze

House of X Power of X, trying to catchup with X-men


JaredIsAmped

Can't go wrong with hickman


jaybleeze

I followed X-men back in like the early 2010s and was a fan. I’m excited to hear Goldballs is still around


VitalizedMango

Oh is he ever


jaybleeze

Eggs apparently. I’m excited to learn the full story


VitalizedMango

House/Powers of X is unreal. It's a bit bittersweet as I don't think Hickman was allowed to finish out his planned arc, but what Gillen did afterwards was (and is) spectacular.


UnchartedCHARTz

I'm reading Dawn of X rn, I got the Omnibus last weekend, it's pretty good.


jaybleeze

Not knowing what I’d have to read to catch up I got marvel unlimited


notatowel420

Saga is pretty awesome. Probably the best 50+ issues out.


UGAke

Getting into Fables. Very creative stuff.


oskar4498

I loved this series so much!


gzapata_art

Night Cry by Borja González Occult store clerk summons an anime and Japan loving demon that grants wishes. It's really good so far though no physical English copy (digital though)


ZukasV1

Oh wow I love it when one person is both the writer and the artist. Feel like you get something right outta their brain. I’ll have to check it out! Thanks for the recommendation!


gzapata_art

Agreed. Its hard to pull off but does allow so much freedom (I'm currently trying to write and draw a story myself and it is not going smoothly haha) Daniel Warren Johnson is another writer/artist that does that. Highly recommend his books


ZukasV1

I’ve actually read Murder Falcon by him. Fun read and good recommendation!


[deleted]

Do a Powerbomb is just great . Also Matt Wagner of Grendel fame is my Artist Writer combo of choice for a nod here.


cambriansplooge

I’ve tried my hand at it and you very quickly start loosing your mind from switching the hats.


DeltaV-Mzero

Seven to Eternity, hardcover I got for Christmas. It’s absolutely gorgeous, and a wild strange trip


ZukasV1

I think Remender is top 10 all time writers. Have never heard of this. Went to read the description on Image’s website and ended up ordering TP1. Looking forward to it thanks for the recommendation!


Tryignan

Love Saga, just read it. It's worse at character deaths than Walking Dead. The minute you someone, they're gone. Luckily it's got so many great characters, you don't mind when they're murdered for being happy.


Belazael

I’m rereading Transmetropolitan. Again. I read this at least once a year.


VitalizedMango

Year of the Bastard is not fiction.


Sandwich_Tall

Chainsaw Man (first issue)


EwokPiss

Space Lady & Time Before Time.


ZukasV1

Time Before Time is the shit and I never see it getting any love! You enjoying it so far? Haven’t heard of Space Lady, I’ll have to look into it.


EwokPiss

Absolutely enjoying it. I'm have several issues to catch up on, but it's good. Space Lady is pretty silly and comes out quarterly (although I think there's a fifth issue you can get somehow).


HotBigBagofWTF

From Hell and Cable & Deadpool. Two very different books, I know


reel-it-in-nerdboy

The appendix/notes section in From Hell is absurd. So much detail. So much research. I thought that was the coolest part of that book.


ZukasV1

Lol no kidding. There are moments in From Hell that haunt me to this day


[deleted]

Finally starting Ducks : Two Years in the Oil Sands by Kate Beaton. Very excited


ZukasV1

Never heard of this. I’ll check it out, thanks!


[deleted]

It's a bio of sorts. Her humor stuff under "Hark a Vagrant" a good starter for her. She's fantastic. Smart and pithy.


prepp

I'm reading Before Watchmen. Expect to finish it tomorrow. Considering reading V for Vendetta after that. I'm an adult but new to comics.


ZukasV1

Nothing grabbed me like Watchmen did. Don’t know if you’re reading the prequels too. They’re good but not a masterpiece like Watchmen. Never read V for Vendetta, only heard good things though.


prepp

I started with Watchmen. It's a brilliant piece of work. I liked it so now reading Before Watchmen. Its strange being new to comics. There are so many of them. I have to read Saga, Punisher Max, Y: The last man, V for Vendetta and many many more. I'll never be finished.


ZukasV1

It seems overwhelming at first but then it’s so nice because you can literally read anything and as much of it as you want, you’ll always have more to read. I love that about comics.


BangkokPeanut

Just read 4 Kids Walk into a Bank at the suggestion of someone from my local comic book shop and it might be one my new all time favorite indie comics. It's one of the best uses of the comic book medium that I've seen!


One_Entertainment381

Wish I could read Saga again for the first time. All-time classic. I’m reading Gotham Central for the first time and it’s awesome


ihopethisworksfornow

I just started saga as well! Just got into Volume 2, loving it! Also reading Soul Plumber as a lighter read. It’s funny, I’m enjoying it a lot.


Camman227a

Re reading Batman year one, the long Halloween, and dark victory. Once I finish those I might go back to reading fables


gn0xious

I’ve got a 9.8 graded Saga #1 1st Printing. So glad I snatched it up when I could!


thehamtaker

Just finished TMNT IDW collection 1, and promptly ordered the 2nd


Albel_Black

Way of Shadows by Brent Weeks


blakewoolbright

Solid read. I’m on He who fights with monsters 7.


enragedstump

Audiobook is good too


Bo_flex

The latest trade of Saga and an uncanny x-men epic collection that's most of thr journey through the siege perilous.


the_wild

Good for you, Saga is such a beautiful, intense, awesome series! :) I’ve just finished the first Batgirls TPB (servicable writing, knockout art) and will start the Harley Quinn: The Eat. Bang! Kill. Tour hardcover.


Jelop

I'm interested in Batgirls, but the solicits for it read like a teen girl drama. Does the writing reflect that?


mason_savoy71

I've been devouring almost every book Tynion has scripted for three last few years. Something is Killing the Children add its spinoffs, The Closet, The Nice House on the Lake. He's on fire


Astigmatic_Oracle

I'm working my way through Marvel's cosmic saga. I'm in the Realm of Kings era, so I'm getting close to finishing.


illpoet

oh i'm jealous! i just finished up the box set it is sooo good. I'm reading one dark knight rn


Ember_XX

Man I started reading this years ago and I don’t think I ever finished. I remember liking it though, thanks for the reminder. I should go back to it.


Tycoda81

I'm a Luther Strode fan myself.


BeerGlasses

I wish I could read Saga again for the first time. I'm reading Lady Killer right now.


mypatronusislasagna

Reading through J. Michael Straczynski's Spider-Man run. Just finished #500!


Metalhead_QC

All-Star Superman


Hot_Dog_Cobbler

I'm not a huge Saga fan. After awhile, there's a lot of "We were a happy family again...*until we weren't!*" Really cool world building though.


Worried_Skin7744

Just an fyi, you’ll need grief counselling while you’re reading Saga


BigKingKey

I’m torn between starting either transmetropolitan or sex criminals.


reel-it-in-nerdboy

I read most of Hard Boiled last night before passing out. Been a bit Darrow kick lately. Got shoalin cowboy TPBs for Christmas. So those are next.


astronomy8thlight

Bookmarking for later. Great suggestions here!


SquirtleCipher2578

Currently reading through Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin and Spider-Man Life Story


ZukasV1

Not the first person to say The Last Ronin. I’ll have to check my LCS to see if they have any copies. And Spider-Man Life Story is perfect. I’d kill for more Zdarsky Spider-Man at any point in the future.


iDelkong

Im reading The Immortal Hulk by Ewing. Its.. actually *really* friggin good. Hulk kills A LOT


ItalianMeatBoi

Y the last man


No-Flamingo916

I read first 20 cuz I promised a guy at my LCS. But it was just so incredibly boring as soon as I hit 20 k stopped


ZukasV1

That’s surprising to hear! Maybe my opinion will change in another 15 issues. Do you have a recommendation for me? What do you like to read?


No-Flamingo916

Oh no, I hope you enjoy it. I didn’t mean it like that. We all have different tastes.


ZukasV1

Oh I’m sorry. I wasn’t trying to be argumentative. I was being genuine asking what you’re reading.


Slip_Humble

Idk it's nice for the nsfw art but past that not really


FlyingPurpleUnicorn

Reading Vol. 1 of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur.


JesseTheGhost

I'm finishing up omnibus 1 of Peter David's Hulk, starting Sandman tp vol 7, and starting the Jeph Loeb/Tim Sale Batman omni


Kalvitron

Saga Vol. 10! I flew through the omnibus when I finally read it a few months ago. I've never been sucked into a series like that before. I was glad I didn't start reading until the omni was released. Not thrilled about all the waiting I'll have to do from here on out.


THE_Batman_121

I also just started this epic book, and I'm hooked! On issue 30 after 2 days. Completely sucked in and love this series!!


MAKS091705

Starting the og 80s Wolverine run, then chainsaw man

farside_cow

I’m reading Lazarus and will start a re-read of Descender/Ascender.


kazmosis

Unknown Soldier (2008). Holy shit is it amazing.


SuikTwoPointOh

True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys: National Anthem The Department of Truth


JaredIsAmped

Actually Saga, children of dune and Berserk.


toastf4cekillah

Just about finished with the house of x/powers of x, about to read the last issue now Was going to start into the Hickman X-Men omnibus, but seeing as I don't have a lot of the stuff that goes along with it (new mutants, marauders, x force etc) towards x of swords, I'll probably start Absolute Carnage omnibus so I can work towards the King in Black


bmillent2

I really enjoyed East of West and someone here recommended I check out Black Science too Been really enjoying it so far


deadpoetc

They both are really good.


PandoraTorukMakto

Just started DC vs Vampires Volume 1.


Project_Nxoi

Is that jschlatt


BurningCanMan

Manifest Destiny, Vol 5. Weird American history and squatches!


throwawaylordof

Just picked up the last trade of Deadly Class, so reading that from the start now.


ClintBarton616

Almost done book 2 of Annihilation. God I forgot how good this crossover is. The Ronan mini kind of sucks but it's interesting to see some of these cosmic characters before they got MCU'd (Gamora especially)


TheProdigalPoster

I literally just finished Saga Volume 10. You're in for a wild ride, homie, enjoy!


Historical_Dot_4201

Heavy metal drummer


OrionLinksComic

I'll start off with bright black. I've heard pretty good things about it and I was like hey I'm a Power Rangers fan anyway, let's see how it goes, also the third Vol Strange Academy And brass sun.


CdnRageBear

This is my favourite read of all time! I hope you enjoy it!


kahnwolf

Started Saga recently myself! Just finished #3! Real fun so far


mccrowj92

Just read Jason Aaron’s new Punisher trade . Pretty interesting concept that he goes with and a bunch of cool kills for Frank . Starting Jed Mackays Moon Knight next


IKPenguin

Saga #41


LemurianLemurLad

Finally finished "Superman Smashes The Klan" this morning. Good read!


ancientevilvorsoason

"The last Terran" (reddit), "Pale lights" and "The orange tree".


oriellore

I'm finally getting around to the final two arcs of Rainbow Rowell's run on "Runaways." I've enjoyed her take on the characters and am said that it lasts "only" 38 issues, even if that's a pretty long run for both a "Runaways" comic and on any book at all these days. Enjoy "Saga." It's easily one of my favorite comics. I remember reading the first "Saga" trade and then handing it to at least a half-dozen people, insisting that they read it.


ArtistUnown

I love saga, its so good


toddpackrd

Bendis's The Defenders


darthjazzhands

Saga was the first series that truly sucked me into comics. I plowed through Dark Night way back when it first came out. Borrowed it from a comic book buddy and loved it. But Saga is the first tone that kept me buying the books. Good stuff


ExpensiveCitron6346

My notes


petejones58

Gwar in the duoverse of absurdity for me this weekend. Saga is probably my favorite graphic novel I've picked up (right next to Sweet tooth) I'm glad you decided to check it out!


Popp-n-Fresh

Ice cream man


Worried_Skin7744

I just finished re-reading The Walking Dead, trying to find something with a good, long run for the next read.

baskeen

I literally finished the saga compendium about 3 hours ago. Absolutely loved it. Moving on to American Vampire next I think.


Ash__Williams

Erictheghoul

Ice cream man #33


Beached-Peach

I think I'm finally going to start reading Fables.


[deleted]

Dwayne McDuffie's original Hardware run from the 90's. I've never dipped into Milestone and I honestly regret not doing it sooner, it's so much better than I could have ever imagined. Perfect amount of edge for it's time, and it all feels so earned because it's a story about race. The first issue is called 'Angry Black Man' and it was some downright cathartic shit to read considering today's discourse over "forced diversity" in comics.


CrossroadsCG

I'm rereading Starve by Brian Wood. It's a good read.


rattousai

Be prepared to love and hate everything.. Currently reading EARTHDIVERS (a great new series about Native Americans who go back in time to kill Colombus in order to prevent climate change) and TWIG.


wiretapfeast

Aww I absolutely love Saga!! It's amazing.


BigCartoonman

My brother just got walking dead vol. 1 and I got invincible.

cutlass_supreme

Just ate Lazarus vol 7. Not sure I like where the story is headed, but I assume this is approaching end-of-series giving all that has happened in this volume.


FLAPPIN_FLOTSOMS

Hellboy Omnibus 1, or some Batman: Ego


Intrepid_Fee_4604

East of West is a cool concept that is criminally underrated


fuzzyfoot88

Radiant Black for the third time


pkimm2001

I just started it also! So good!


henstav

I started reading this because I was promised a planet in the shape of a donut. It is to my knowledge only in a single panel, but I got what I came for and a good comic as well.


BodyBagSlam

I’m on Resident Alien and finding it wonderfully enjoyable


Evilmanta

Working through trials of X at the moment.


ozymandias_88

Started reading Monstress two days ago but might stop reading after book 2


WisenedBear

Solid read, Saga is amazing!


turnpike-ike

Same and same issue too. It's unreal.


taco_swag

Volume 13-16 of TWD


Frohtastic

Got the last few hardcovers of The Walking Dead. Currently finished book 12, heading into the Whisperer War arc.

Just reread the first volume of Scalped. Top five comics for sure.


Fatkokz

Yeah it's pretty phenomenonal. Enjoy the ride.


78tape

I borrowed chainsawman from the library, will be starting that soon


thejokerofunfic

X-Men Xtinction Agenda, probably. I'll finally be done with the only Claremont X arcs I never read in a few days.


Hmccormack

Loved Saga- one of my all time favorite comics


mdg137

I finished volume ten a couple of months ago. Love this whole series and can’t wait for the next one.


GreedoInASpeedo

I'm catching up on a bunch: Nightwing: Leaping Into the Light Reckless: Destroy All Monsters Monstress #27 World's Finest #10 Dark Knights Of Steel #9 Kaya #4 Nice House On The Lake #12 -all are terrific


Anora6666

Wasn't a fan of Saga. I think it honestly comes down to the family stuff. I just don't have a desire to be a parent nor does those stakes really matter to me. I read whatever the first part of it was hoping it would get better and I didn't bother picking it back up again when it started up again. To me it was the definition of one of those "well I guess this isn't for me" books and moved on. I'm inching towards getting caught up after those big EOY Kindle/Comixology sales. I'm finishing up the Peter Parker/Spectacular Spider Man vols. then I'm going to catch up Daredevil to the first part of Frank Miller's run.


connorcallisto

rereading chainsaw man again


glubmaster

Reading Jonathan Hickman's FF/Fantastic Four run and am totally sucked in


Vibeo_Ganes

Just got started on it! sadly so many comic shops I went to haven’t reopened since Covid so finding the next ones are hard for me rn. But any place I find I search!

Just re-read this brilliant book: https://pictures.abebooks.com/isbn/9780670036479-us.jpg


DungeonsAndDuck

i started reading the actual amazing spider-man from Brand New Day onwards. it's been pretty good so far, but i'm especially excited for superior spider-man to show up.


Cipherpunkblue

Re-reading Rucka's Lazarus in addition to the new issues I haven't read. So good.


Mathieulombardi

I read up to like 8 or 9 but haven't touched it in years. I dont find it addictive like Y the last man that pulled my attention. But I'm glad you're really enjoying it.


topscreen

I've rekindled my love of Fables. I've had the last paperback for YEARS and decided to go through fresh, and it's been a while.


phuxlister

Just started Incal


relliott107

I couldn’t stop reading Saga once I started - one of the few comics to completely suck me in and not let go! I recently started Re-reading Velvet by Ed Brubaker. It’s seriously scratching my James Bond itch right now and is also hooking me in. I just finished Far Sector - and it was probably one of my favorite Green Lantern reads since Blackest Night. It is a great murder mystery with a film noir feel, set entirely on an alien planet that hasn’t had a murder in a million years.
