Figured I'd give back from my personal stash before the board changes over. I love these books. Maybe you will too.

DON'T SLEEP.

Transmetropolitan (my favorite comic ever)

transmetropolitan.jpg

Transmetropolitan is a postcyberpunk comic book series written by Warren Ellis with art by Darick Robertson and published by DC Comics. The series was originally part of the short-lived DC Comics imprint Helix Comics, but upon the end of the book's first year the series was moved to the Vertigo imprint as DC Comics cancelled the Helix Comics imprint. It chronicles the battles of Spider Jerusalem, infamous renegade gonzo journalist of the future who is a homage to gonzo journalism founder Hunter S. Thompson.

Spider Jerusalem dedicates himself to fighting the corruption and abuse of power of two successive United States presidents; he and his ("filthy") assistants strive to keep their world from turning more dystopian than it already is while dealing with the struggles of fame and power, brought about due to the popularity of Spider via his articles.

The monthly series began in 1997 and came to its conclusion in 2002. The series was later reprinted in a series of ten trade paperback volumes. The series also featured two "specials" (I Hate It Here and Filth of the City) with text pieces written by the Spider Jerusalem character and illustrated by a wide range of comic artists. These were later collected as part of the book's trade paperback program.

Planetary

Planetary is an organization billing themselves as "Archaeologists of the Impossible", tracking down the world's secret history. Funded by the mysterious Fourth Man, who it is said could be anyone from Bill Gates to Adolf Hitler, the field team consists of three superhumans: Jakita Wagner, who is strong, fast and nearly invulnerable; The Drummer, who can detect and manipulate nearby information streams, most commonly used to manipulate computers and other electronics; the new recruit Elijah Snow, who can extract heat from nearby substances at will, freezing them; and the former third man Ambrose Chase, who has a "selective physics-distortion field".

The series is set in the Wildstorm Universe, along with other titles such as Stormwatch, The Authority, DV8 and Gen¹³. Snow was born on January 1, 1900, as was Jenny Sparks of the Authority, and the two know each other. Planetary rarely crosses over with other Wildstorm series, although references are made to characters in other series, such as Henry Bendix from Stormwatch.

Planetary's field team travels the world investigating strange phenomena: monsters and other beings, unusual relics, other superhumans, and powerful secrets which certain individuals are trying to keep hidden from the rest of the world. Their purpose in doing this is partly curiosity, and partly to use what they learn for the betterment of mankind. There are, however, groups who oppose their goals, and the organization has a substantial history which is gradually revealed during the series.

200px-Wanted.jpg


Wanted is a creator-owned comic book miniseries, consisting of six issues written by Mark Millar with art by J. G. Jones and published by Top Cow in 2003 and 2004 as part of Millarworld.[1] It features an amoral protagonist who discovers he is the heir to a career as a super-villainous assassin in a world where such villains have secretly taken control of the planet.

The series is adult in nature, similar to more grown-up 'super-hero' titles such as The Authority or The Ultimates. Like the Authority or the Squadron Supreme, several characters are based on DC Comics characters and super-villains (See below). The series also bears resemblance to the 1999 films Fight Club and The Matrix, as it is about a despondent man in an unfulfilling white-collar job who finds a new lease on life but becomes extremely violent and marked as outside of 'normal' society. It differs from these films in that the main character has no desire to improve the world through this violence, but only embraces it in the pursuit of selfish, egocentric pleasures.

The Sunday Times dubbed the title "the Watchmen for super-villains."[2]

filth.jpg


The Filth was Grant Morrison's second major creator-owned series for Vertigo after The Invisibles. Initially starting as a Nick Fury proposal for Marvel Comics, Morrison adapted it as a 13 part series for Vertigo. The title refers both to the police (in British slang) and to pornography (in which Morrison "immersed" himself researching the series).[1] Morrison has said that the series is his favorite among his works.[2]

The series tells the story of Greg Feely, a bachelor whose main interests are his cat and masturbating to pornography. Feely is actually a member of a shadowy organization called The Hand and their attempts to keep society on the path to the 'Status Q'. (Of note, while the protagonists of The Invisibles fight against authority, Feely and his allies fight as representatives of it against a range of absurd foes.)

battle-royale-v01-cover.jpg


Battle Royale has been adapted into a serialized manga, written by Koushun Takami and Masayuki Taguchi, was published in Japan by Akita Publishing. The manga consists of 15 volumes and is distributed in English by Tokyopop. There is a manga sequel called Battle Royale II: Blitz Royale. At October 2007, a new special edition of the manga will be released.

The manga follows the plot of the novel fairly closely, but also expands on the backstory of each of the students. It is also far more sexually graphic than the novel and film versions, and is also noted for its intense, gory violence. The name of the main character is transliterated as Shuuya Nanahara in this version (rather than 'Shuya' as it is spelled in the novel).

The manga revolves around seven main characters, including the righteous Shuuya Nanahara, the gentle and caring Noriko Nakagawa, the hardened veteran Shogo Kawada, the genius Shinji Mimura, the kind-hearted kung fu master Hiroki Sugimura, the troubled Mitsuko Souma, and the cold, merciless Kazuo Kiriyama. As of January 2006, all 15 volumes have been released in Japan. In the US and UK all 15 of the volumes have been released as of April 2006.

BAALO_01_cover.jpg


Last Order begins when Alita is resurrected by Desty Nova's nanotechnology in the floating city of Tiphares. The city's dark secrets are brutally exposed, but it turns out to be a small part of a complex world. Going into space with new and old companions alike, to look for her lost friend Lou Collins and to find out more about her forgotten past, Alita is caught up in an interplanetary struggle between the major powers of the colonized solar system. Along the way, she forms an alliance with three of the Alita Replicas who have now begun to think for themselves, an unsavory superhacker, and Nova himself when she enters the Zenith of Things Tournament (Z.O.T.T.), a fighting competition held every ten years. During the course of the story, more background about the setting of Battle Angel Alita that was not disclosed in the prior series is revealed, such as how the Earth emerged from a cataclysmic impact winter that wiped out most of the population.

To read The Walking Dead on a monthly basis is to fully surrender yourself to the mercy of writer Robert Kirkman, who, with this issue, proves a master at unapologetically yanking his readers to and fro – from shockingly gruesome moments to ones of levity, from fast-paced action scenes to somber moments of mourning. Reading the series in serialized form is one extended emotional roller coaster, and Kirkman is the twisted, somewhat psychotic Carney operating the ride.

- IGN Comic Reviewer

Walking Dead & Y: The Last Man are two of the best comics I've ever read.

but your questions...:cool:

#1 He said he wanted to show how the world affects the characters and changes them. Don't look for an ending, it's different than Y: The Last Man, Rick and nem' just tryin to fuckin' make it.

#2 No :hmm:, this is more about the characters. Both dead and undead are threats here, doggy.

#3 Michonne vs. Agent 355? Easily my boo, Three-fiddy. Michonne is a crazy dicksucka. 355 can use guns better, she trash wit swords tho.

something I learned from House of M, Civil War and even WWH. If you're into the summer blockbuster, only buy those titles, every other supposed crossover title is just a drain on your pocket book. Every now and then they'll fill in a story gap, but for the most part its a waste...

I agree. A crossover used to mean that the story would run through the books of the characters that are involved.
Now you have to buy additional books. Why is ther a Secret Invasion Fantastic Four 1-3?
Why not just use 3 issues of The Fantastic Four?
I don't know what is going on in the Mighty Avengers Books.
Just flashbacks and build ups.
 
........I'm starting to get the feeling I am really sleepin....:(

not only are you sleepin, but you're trippin! Brothas have post both complete series thus far, and almost every other thread talks about them. Download 'em even if you don't have time to read 'em, and be quick you never know when you'll log on and HNIC says "pay up sucka". :cool:
