What are you all currently reading? Any particular TPB you've been plugging through for a while or are particular good you're reading again.
Any particular favourites you want to recommend? Do it here!
I'm going through Welcome Back Frank Punisher TPB, just started on the Daredevil Visionaries Vol 2 today and considering buying Bk 2 of Annihilation though that should wait till after my exams. _________________ Pro Massacre Boy!
Countdown - Worth it if you like weekly books
Thunderbolts - Best team book at Marvel
JLA - Not essential but has an interesting roster
JSA - Best team book going. REALLY good.
Daredevil - Bit slow at the moment, the last couple of trades are a better place to start, but even when not on full form it's still better than most books out there.
Also got Booster Gold & World War Hulk (in preparation for when they come out)
I also tend to pick up Amazing, Nova and the two Avengers titles if they're in stock as well as the occasional Batman or Detective. Amazing isn't as good as the critics say it is (feels a bit like a poor mans Daredevil to me) but it's essential if you're a Spidy fan. The others I tend to read the reviews and decide then.
Ultimate Spiderman
Ultimate X Men
Ultimate Fantastic Four
The Ultimates
Planetary
The Authority
Midnighter
Hellblazer
The Flash

Beautiful Losers, By Leonard cohen.
Found it in a second hand book shop, you cannot begin to understand that which is written here, but although i thought i had reached the depths of mental insanity, this book has shown me the way to true enlightenment and made me realise that i am in fact quite sane
I have been getting a bit board with some of the stuff i have been reading, so have been experimenting a bit,
Picked up Hellblazer for the last 3 issues on a certain Rascals recommendation, used to read it years ago, and it was one of my favorites at the time, this title is really well and truly back on track, (good call Rascal)
Read the 1st two issues of Green Arrow Year One, Not bad quite good in fact.
and Batman Confidential Which i have reviewed.
Still picking up titles that i don't usually read, i will let you all know if i stumble across something stunning _________________
Currently ignoring everything except for The Dreaming Void. Meant to be published on Friday, but somehow I have it now. Its my favourite authors newest offering. Yippie! _________________ Let There Be Lightning
Just read Criminal: Coward, and the new Harry Potter.
Still making my way through John Peel's autobiography, Derren Brown's latest book, Franny and Zooey, the Rough Guide to Conspiracy Theories, Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell.
Comic wise - I'm re-reading Identity Crisis, and am balls deep in World War Hulk, Silver Surfer Requiem, Thunderbolts and The Boys.
I'm really liking The Losers and Fables at the moment too.
