Some fans read only 2 or 3 books a month, others a few more, and then there are the guys (and girls) who carry out a huge stack every Wednesday. But no matter how many you buy, out of all those comics, there are those that you can't wait to read the next issue of. What are those books for you?
1. Uncanny X-Force (best comic going) 2. Batwoman (loved her time in Detective. Amazing art, dark storytelling, and a chick kicking butt in a batsuit) 3. Detective Comics (was the best comic going...before the reboot...will probably drop. Jock art was sweet) 4. American Vampire (jumped on at the start of the most recent WWII arch...really good. Snyder is fast becoming my favourite comic scribe, and looking forward to his run on Batman) 5. Batman Inc. (anything Grant Morrison + Batman is good) 6. Wolverine (always liked the character, and the storyline and art have been very good) 7. Northlanders (a viking comic...come on!) 8. X-23 (picked this up for a friend, and it was so good I'm 13 issues deep) 9. Batman & Robin (have issues 1-24...great stuff...not so sure I'll keep reading now that it's back to square one) 10. Deadpool MAX/Red Wing (Deadpool MAX for the art and because its nuts, and Red Wing cause its about time traveling fighter pilots, also with great art)

I can't make a Top 10 List but I can atleast have a Top 3 List...
1.Batman the Brave and the Bold - based on the Cartoon... 2.Batwing 3.Justice League Dark - could be #2 once I get my issue in...
I see you have Batman Inc., I may get that title next year when it's rebooted as Batman Leviathan...

Ok, so top 10. Not sure I'll get to ten, but here goes.
1. Daredevil.
DD is an often overlooked comic book, Bendis' run was simply awesome (and being a former GWF artist, you have no excuse not to read it all!) its a book on which risks are often taken, risks that other titles shy away from.
2. Hellblazer.
John Constantine, what more do I need to say? amazing stuff, I have a twenty year collection of this and have never regretted it.
3. The Avengers.
There's just something awesome about seeing Earths mightiest heroes combined. many classic stories worth looking up and with Bendis at the helm, it seems in good hands currently too.
So that's three.. its unfortunate that most of my comic-book buying has dried up, I tend to collect graphic novels these days.
Lately I've enjoyed Captain America, Iron Man, Thor and of course Daredevil.
Marvel seems to have a higher quality output than DC, however when the Batman titles are good, they are very good. But the recent run on these titles has been poor in my view.
looking back at comic books I used to collect, Y The Last Man, Preacher, Sandman, Shade the Changing Man, Animal Man and dozens more hold fond memories.
Had I more storage space and a healthier wallet, I'd be buying a load more comic books still!
In closing, if you haven't done so already. Check out Bendis' run on Daredevil. You won't regret it.

I don't know if I could make a top 10 list, I read lots of books The majority of the books are DC. With the new 52 some of the books are opening me up to books I never read. Justice League Dark I went out on a limb and have enjoyed it. My 10 favourite books in no order are 1) Superman 2) Action Comics 3) All Star Western 4) Green Lantern 5) Hulk 6) Justice League International 7) Deathstroke 8) Aquaman 9) Justice League Dark 10 Wonderwoman
And Bazzy a friend gave me the collected works of Roy of the Rovers and I read it. You Brits really need Superheros. For 10 issues Roy and his wife had a baby and couldn't figure out a name. That was a pivitol storyline. Bad 1970's writing.

Justice League Dark I went out on a limb and have enjoyed it. That's a good limb to have gone out on and I had a gut feeling that Justice League Dark would be thrilling storytelling in the magical realm of the DC Universe. I like every character in the book but my favorites are Shade, the Changing Man and Zantana...
