Just give some recommendations for comics you think are good

The Goon.

Bump because I’m reading the goon now and I like it so far
Reminds me of bone but darker

Savage sword was amazing as fuck.
The cimmeria chapters were Conan gets his father sword are the best shit, you can't prove me wrong.

Not even kidding. Got it as a gift from someone and now I just kinda want more. It also helped I pretended it was part of the Starfox universe

I find strange that nobody mentioned Corto Maltese yet. Maybe it's me, but no comic ever come close to it in being able to make me feel a melancholic sense of adventure and prideful sadness.

Hellboy.

There is one man who reigns over cape comics.

Attached: Ostrander's works.jpg (3264x1056, 2.58M)

I hate Corto Maltese because it's bland, boring and massively overrated by people who kept telling me to read it.

No, it's not alright. Misogyny and homophobia are NEVER alright you fucking piece of shit

>The Adventures of Luther Arkwright
A thousand times this

Sell me on Luther Arkwright.

Starman

Attached: DXaC_nCV4AEWpcY.jpg (847x1200, 278K)

Absolutely perfect series.

Honestly I can't believe Starman isn't thought of as an epic masterpiece the way Sandman or Cerebus is. It is just as dense, just as original, just as complete.

I think the issue is that there is a drop in quality when Jack goes to space and Tony Harris leaves but this drop in quality can be exaggerated a bit in retrospect. It goes from a 10/10 to an 9/10 for a few arcs and that comes back to stick the 10/10 landing perfectly. It's like how everyone says Back to the Future 3 is "the bad one" when it's really awesome but just not as perfect as the first two.

Also fuck DC for the terrible inaccessible way they've collected (and not collected) it.

Attached: starman ted.jpg (1024x1573, 576K)

Well at least now they're releasing the new massive 1500+ pages omnis.
Starman felt like it was written for me specifically when I read it, and I'm damn glad it exists.

>IDW TMNT is good in general
Until the last few arcs and counting

Agreed. Plus I was young enough when i read it that Robinson showed me a lot of cool stuff through Jack like Tod Browning's Freaks.

For me it was Wesley Dodds.

Fuck me, and the Bulletman arc. And anything with Bobo. And literally every Times Past issue. I have to read this series again.

Yes. Rereading the series gives you a completely different perspective on the Talking with David issues.

Starman from 1951 was Batman wasn't? I feel like Robinson meant to retcon and get to that at some point but never did.

Attached: RCO004.jpg (1280x1805, 797K)

Batman wasn't around in the 1950's in the Post-Crisis continuity. Instead it was Doctor Mid-Nite and David

i really liked tomboy

this guy knows what's going on.

Hard to consider it as dense as Cerebus when it's not even a 3rd as long as the whole thing and barely a third as long as the good part.

What do you think dense means?

Never got the appeal of Cerebus. I went in expecting something great and got embarrassing parody that Mad Magazine wouldn't touch. Even when I got to the "good part" it felt like more of the same shit only now it was centered around extremely dull local politics in a kingdom that was barely fleshed out and I was supposed to genuinely care about the boring ass main character.
Simm's crazy rants in the letter column are the only parts I don't regret reading.
Most of these are good.
I would also add Wagner's Grendel and Graham's Prophet.

MAX Punisher BORN is the greatest book I have ever read

Forgot to mention The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. But then again there is a lot of stuff I forgot to mention like Tintin, Watchmen, Usagi Yojimbo and so on.

Corto Maltese had a lot of great shit, but it is incredibly flawed. There are definitely some neat techniques and great moments, especially in the later books.
I disagree. I tried to read Suicide Squad and The Spectre, but I found them lacking. Suicide Squad was kinda cool, but I ultimately lost interest.
I'm actually not a fan of early Morrison. For some of his series, like Animal Man and Doom Patrol, a lot of it is a bunch of crazy idea storylines that read like filler. He got better at completing/realizing his ideas later, but during the 80s and early 90s, his work isn't that good.

>that entire webpage
Wow.

I don't think Duncan the Wonder Dog is very good. The rest are cool.

> I tried to read Suicide Squad and The Spectre, but I found them lacking
When you die Anubis will find your heart lacking you bitch.

Anubis is my bitch. Now, explain what makes an Ostrander comic great and not merely pretty good.

Nothing, they all suck lol look at this cuck shit a fucking fat black womyn who don't need no man is in charge?

It isn't, unless you FEEL it is.
