I thought it might help this new Forum to get some Opinion lists posted.

Post my All-time Top 5 trade paperbacks or complete runs in this Thread:

Midnight Nation, Image, J. Michael Stracinsyski (sp?): Afterlife, zombie kinda story.

Dark Knight Returns, DC, Frank Miller: Still holds up, older Batman returns as needed in mid 80s. Darkened comics.

Runaways 1-6, Marvel, BKV: Kids of villians unite to fight Powers controlling them and haunting Marvel world. Set in late 90s LA.

Identity Crisis, DC, Brad Metzler: Current JLA deals w/ ramifications of family deaths and reason why the Golden Age villians were lame later.

Red Son, DC, Mark Millar: GREAT Elseworlds story with Superman being Russian. Art by "100 Bullets" Dan Johnson too...

And best Collection? The Ultimates (Vol. 1), Marvel, Mark Millar: Great story but so much better as the Oversized HC w/ tons of extras, including a panel-by-panel breakdown by Millar and Hitch.

Anybody else?

Yep, Scalped ended at Issue #60 (so ten total TPBs). The writer is going to put out a new Image book soon entitled "Southern Bastards". i am really looking forward to reading it.

ahhh Sweet Tooth. Cant really say too much about it. it was that good. Jeff Lemire did the book, 100%. wrote it, drew, it penciled, lettered it. Just was a great story IMO. I will say that the art isnt everyones style (much like Mind MGMT), but when you consider that he did THE WHOLE book, that is XXXXing talent imo

Just re-read that Ultimates HC and absolutely loved it! A couple dated references but otherwise, fantastic!

Emabarassed to admit I kinda forgot about the "France" line.

I don't remember Vol. 2 that much and then Loeb and Migueara destroyed the franchise...
