To the choir...

Yeah... PREACHER is a GREAT friggin' series... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Other honorable mentions include THE WALKING DEAD, THE CROW, HELLBOY, 100 BULLETS, almost anything by Alan Moore, FABLES, and Y: THE LAST MAN.

If I had to pick just one book, though, I think it would have to be LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN... what a read.

(Volume One was awesome... Volume Two... whoa.)

SINcerely,
Dirk Manning

Not sure.
Used to read Sgt. Rock when I was a kid.

Astro City.
The art, the varying storyline, the depth, the dialogue.
All there. The third series wasn't GREAT, but overall the title
has remained pretty consistant.

Y - The last man is pretty great for an ongoing title also.

Anyone not willing to give UZUMAKI a look just because it's "Manga" is really, REALLY missing out.

(Is that Mike Patton, btw? Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.)

Yes! Astro City is awesome. It's amazing what can be done when writers leave behind the DC/Marvel worlds and characters. Have you read the one-off Samaritan special?

I questioned whether or not Uzumaki counts because it's technically 3 books
