Are these the best comics being published right now? If not, what are some better comics?
>>150204918nobody reads comics
>>150204918>Are these the best comics being published right now?I rather like absolute Martian Manhunter anyway
>>150204918AMM, Dark Patters and Seasons are each on my pull and the first two are the only two DC is publishing that are worth reading. Power fantasy and ACE are complete ass juice though. Haven’t read “we’re taking down…” but it doesn’t seem bad might give it a shot
>>150204918Seasons is super underrated and under the radar. And I love it. But I do think it could move faster plot-wise. I almost wish it was a guaranteed ongoing (feels like a stealth 12 issue maxi) and that it could wrap up this first storyline and just send the characters off on an adventure.
Absolute Martian Manhunter is incredible.
>>150204918bottom middle has a nice cover
>>150204918Daniel Warren Johnson's Transformers has been consistently great, though he's only got one issue left.
>>150204918I only read the first two issues of Seasons before deciding to wait for the deluxe hardcover. First issue of Escape was pretty damn good and I'm looking forward to the next one.
>>150205410>the first two are the only two DC is publishing that are worth reading.Batman & Robin Year One has been surprisingly good.
>>150206377I really didn’t like it from what I read. His comic with rossmo ws much better.
>>150206464I disagree. It’s on my pull but only because I left it on for a few too many issues and Im not gonna take a mini off of it so late. Dark patterns and AMM are legit gems.
>>150204918>>150205405>>150205671Eh, I thought it was okay.
>>150204918There's zero debate that DC is putting out better books than Marvel right now. The last two books from Marvel I liked were Clobberin' Time and Predator vs Wolverine (both minis), the ongoings have been trash for decades, and all the minis since I've put on my pull list (Wolverine: Revenge, Spider-Man & Wolverine) have been dog shit as well.
>>150204918You forgot : skybounds transformers,absolute batman,void rivals,absolute wonder woman and thats about that
>>150206679>absolute batman>absolute wonder womanThese are trash though
>>150204918I like the first two, and ACE has been on my To Read list.The others are worth reading?
>>150205309Can confirm.
>>150206822Season is pretty solid but admittedly kinda slow. But you’ll enjoy it reading what’s already out.
>>150206833Seasons*
>>150206852The Seasons*
>>150207082The Sneedsons*
>>150204918Literally all shit. There's no good comics right now.
>>150208153What's specifically bad about each of them?
>>150204918>Absolute MMPretty good, definitely one of the best from DC right now at least>Batman Dark PatternsI don't care that much about Batman, never heard of it>The Power FantasyGillen is incredibly overrated, only skimmed the first couple of issues and was not impressed.>Assorted Crisis EventsI've been liking Camp and the format is cool but it gets way more soapbox-y for my liking.>We're Taking Everyone Down With UsIt's good enough so far, art could be better>The SeasonsI generally enjoy Remender and this has been good so far but I'm waiting for it to wow me.
>>150208566Dark patterns is genuinely good.
>>150204918I read the first three issues of The Seasons. Not super interesting and the art is whatever. I don't think I enjoy Remender as much as others here. I felt next to nothing from three of his recent comics.
>>150204918Absolute MMH is the new demon knights, everyone with a pull list is swearing its tbe best thing ever but the moment it ends you'll forget about it.
>>150208153What's the last good comic you read?
>>150208566I feel like the format of the seasons is just more to just have fun with the medium, its way more lighthearted and fun and campy than his other stuff as of late, but still carrying the ANY SECOND NOW bone of all going fuckwaysEscape tho feels like a more hardcore regular Remender and Acuña's art is so on point, the first issue really hooked me.
>>150204918The fact people seem to be reading them and talking about them online is certainly an improvement over the last decade or so of big two comics. I hope they learn something from this
>>150204918>Absolute Martial Mind****erI like it. Nice art, cool story. No notes. Definitely the best Absolute title and possibly the best thing DC has going on right now.>Dark PatternsIt's Batman just the way I like him. A costumed detective solving cases, rather than a superhero saving the world. Good shit.>The Power FantasyIt feels a bit too much like Gillen trying to make his own Jupiter's Legacy. I don't hate it, it's just not gripping me so far. The heaven and hell stuff it's been going into does feel more interesting to me than the first few issues though.>Assorted Crisis EventsEh, not my thing. Too much navelgazing and while the atypical structures are interesting, he's just not telling an interesting story through them. It's more an attempt at artsy social commentary than a comic book. It's hard not to draw the comparison to AMM where there's also artsy gimmicks and social commentary, but they support the story rather than the other way around.I haven't read the other two so can't comment on them. I'll probably check them out some time.There's some other ongoings I'm enjoying right now including Absolute Wonder Woman, Resurrection Man, Moon Knight, Transformers, Void Rivals, Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees, Radiant Black, Rogue Sun, Something Is Killing the Children, The Hunger and the Dusk, W0rldtr33, etc. though I wouldn't like to rank them in a top X list.
>>150204918You forgot 2000AD, but yeah those are good books.
>>150204918I don't know? I never read any of these comics. Too lazy desu.
>>150210246>Absolute Wonder Woman, Resurrection Man, Moon KnightAwful, just awful
>>150204918I had to agree, those are solid titles.
>>150210321>2000ADAll of it, or select stories?
>>150211599Excellent argument, my mentally handicapped friend.
>>150204918No. None.
>>150210246>Radiant Black, Rogue Sun, Something Is Killing the ChildrenThese are bad.
>>150210321Right now, the progs are alright, but none of the recent stories have been all that memorable.
>>150210321I like 2000AD but I can't recall any particularly recent series I really liked, it's mostly just waiting for one of the ones I really like to eventually come back like Brass Sun or The Order
>>150212402It's an anthology book so pick and choose
>>150213954>>150213987Damn.
>>150213856Radiant Black and Rogue Sun are unironically some of the most enjoyable cape comics coming out today. Which is arguably faint praise, but nonetheless. And while I can somewhat understand not vibing with SIKTK, as long as you ignore all the shitty spinoff titles it's a very good story.
>>150214302I found them all incredibly boring.
>>150204918No idea
>thread talking about what comics people like>half the replies are just mindless NPCs going HURR SHIT SUCKS without even bothering to pretend they're capable of having an actual opinion/co/ is dead and all of you maggots are defiling its corpse.
>>150208325What's good about them? If the story and art aren't working together, then I lose interest.>>150210094Do you mean recent or at all?Saga of the Swamp Thing is the last good comic I finished. I don't even remember the last good comic I read that's released in years.
>>150204918No.
>>150210094Kate Beaton’a Ducks. Pretty good. Horrible to read about her rape.
>>1502103212000ad has has too many lacklustre rotating strips this year. Not a fan of this latest long term evil AI Sinister Dexter arc at all, especially now that it’s turned into another series entirely
>>150215627Who cares about that bitch?
>>150204918if they are, comics are worse than i thought. this is hte kinda trash youd find in the YA/indie diversity faggot pile.
>>150216451You read all of them? You read YA trash?
>>150216426There’s this thing called empathy. Ever heard of it?
>>150216663Don't waste it on people you have nothing to do with.
>>150216770Pretty sociopathic take
>>150216806No, I'm just not pretending to care.
>>150204918i think the rocketfellers is a neat read whenever it comes around.
>>150204918All that except Martian Manhunter. That one's art looks like crap.
>>150216922It’s way too slow and the whole backstory for them fleeing is incredibly boring.
>>150216968eh the pacing's the way it is because it ran into 2 delays and raina's backstory is currently being focused on.
>>150216922Best Ghost Machine book?
>>150215352Just ignore them, bro.
>>150217547You shouldn't ignore all of them. Ignore the spammy ones, the ones that come off like bots.
>>150217443eh, probably
>>150215511>I don't even remember the last good comic I read that's released in years.Damn...
>>150206464Samnee's great but everything I've read with him as the artist sucks.
No New Ultimate comics?
>>150220474Nope.
>>150204918dark patterns is overrated slop for people who liked jj abrams batman
>>150222111I hated the reeves movie and find the cartoon to be reprehensibly woke and shitty. I also happen to hate Absolute Wonder Woman but Sherman’s art in DP is much better and the comic is fantastic. So basically speak for yourself faggot.
>>150220240That’s cause he’s always working with waid or some other hack like kirkman
>>150204918We're fucked if that's the case
>>150214302Radiant Black has been spinning its wheels for so long now and killed any momentum it might have had. I'm honestly surprised it hasn't been cancelled. Rogue Sun was alright.
Anyone here read the Universal Monsters comics? I've only read a bit of Dracula but I really like the idea of handing the characters over to people who are up and coming in horror comics.
>>150222948I thought Dracula was okay but mostly for the art
>>150222948Frankenstein was really good and Invisible Man is promising.
I like the new GI Joe comic
>>150222736Why do you say that?
>>150204918i hope not
>>150208796People keep saying that, but no one ever elaborates on what's so good about it.
