comics... real ones

The mange series of BR looked really good, I was in the process of buying them for my ex bf but never got a chance to read them myself before we finished and now I have no money to buy them :( They'll have to wait a while, the suspense will just make them better :)

eh i read about the first twenty issues of ultimate xmen and i just couldn't get into it. the only characters i really liked were storm and wolverine. as for astonishing xmen, i haven't read that one yet. is that the series joss whedon is writing for? what team is in it? i think uncanny xmen is doing great right now, with the character changes and everything. i loved xtreme xmen and i was so glad nightcrawler and wolverine joined them. plus i love alan davis' art and naturally chris claremont's writing. to me, mystique is one of the best xmen titles out right now. the art and writing are excellent plus she is just such a great character that it's always interesting.
as for manga, as digs was mentioning, i love cowboy bebop, trigun, and tenchi. i've been getting into hellsing, demon diary, and s-cry-ed but i only have the first novel for each at the moment. gotta buy some more after xmas.

Astonishing X-Men is fucking great. Every issue has had me psyched about comics like I haven't been since I was 10. Currently I'm also reading Swamp Thing, Adam Strange, New X-Mean: Academy X, Hellblazer, and Books of Magic: Life During Wartime.
Some of my all-time faves are Animal Man, Sandman, Swamp Thing (Alan Moore style), Hellblazer (classic Garth Ennis, etc), Doom Patrol, and Mark Waid Flash stuff. Plus all the other standards like Watchmen, Miracleman, Dark Knight Returns, etc.
I also read manga. My favorite manga of all time is Love Hina, but I also love most CLAMP stuff like Chobits and XXXHolic, and a lot of girl's manga like Kare Kano and Crescent Moon.
And I like Calvin and Hobbes and Little Nemo for newspaper comics.
REMIX:
I just read the post before me and the lineup for Astonishing is...
Cyclops
Emma
Beast
Wolverine
Shadowcat
and ??? (a surprise for when you actually read it...its a good surprise)

haha love hina is great. i've read a little of the manga and i've seen like half of the show. so funny. and i like chobits too! forgot about that one. very interesting story plus fantastic art.
i think i should go check out astonishing xmen now to see if it is really so amazing. the problem is there are no comics stores near me (especially not in walking distance) and the parentals wouldn't drive me to one. so until i drive (which will be very soon hopefully) i can only buy comics once in a while at like borders.
get fuzzy=best newspaper comic. woooo. plus zits, agnes, dilbert, boondocks, non sequitur, and doonesbury.
