My favourite is The Sandman.
Then there is Batman - The Arkham Asylum, Black Orchid, The Books of Magic, .... and oh so many more.
and I have a fable for Wolverine.
Well, and there is Akira, the first comic I've ever read besides Asterix and Lucky Luke...and still one of those I like most.

My fav was Spawn up to #50 then it went to crap. I liked The Drakness and Witchblade too. Batman Is my fav hero though because he has the most flaws and no super-powers. I still wish that DC would give Batman over to Darkhorse for at least a year so that we can seee a more adult Batman comic. Oh and I almost forgot Jonny. I love that insane little serial killer and his Nail Bunny too :P I'm actually quite inviouse of Nny. He gets an endless basement with exits all over town. What could be better?

I know I will get kicked in the balls for saying this but SUPERMAN is my favorite comic book. Batman would be number 2 on my list, and Ultimate X-men at number 3. I like Superman for what he stands for, the american way, sure he's a geek and unrealistic but then again who reads comics about the real world.

No one remembers Deathlok
I'm sure no one remembers Deathlok. I haven't seen it since I was a kid. It was about a cyborg, back before even the "6 million dollar man". It was very dark, psychological, grim, and messy. Not like other "cyborg" characters we've seen since then.
I keep hearing how wonderful Sandman is. Soon I will buy and experience it. Sometimes it's nice to have something really cool that you haven't experienced yet. Almost makes you understand the Japanese sensibility of "anticipation".

I liked Ironman some ways back... then I gained an affinity for Wolverine. Not necessarily the comic book character himself, but his life's storyline... It seemed so appealing in some ways.

"The ballad of the salty sea". Corto Maltese's debut...
Although it's a graphic novel and not a comic book per se.
Curious about the Superman going berzerk thing, Nike. If you or anyone here remember what it is, give us a shout.

My comic book guy doesn't carry them. It makes me sad.
I figured Hot Topic would have it, since they have Johnny and Courtney Crumrin, but no luck there, either.

It's only technically a plug. I don't have a site for it, and I don't have any intention of making one for another... several months. lol
