Comic fans: You have to limit yourself to 3 titles a month. What are they?

Tentacle Monster, have you tried “Prison Funnies”? Or “My Monkey’s Name is Jennifer”? “My Faith in Frankie”? Seems a shame for paper comics to lose you.

But you listed exactly 3!..

:confused:

woohoo! Sonny Liew (penciller on My Faith in Frankie) used to be one of my team way back in the halcyon 90’s!

He’s a very talented and nice guy, and yes, this comic is well worth supporting!

:smack: The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers are being reprinted. No new originals.

Selkie: The paper comics I do like tend to come out in anthologies and it’s damn near impossible to find them in serials. Especially living out where I do. Somehow, I just can’t justify to myself an hour’s drive to maybe find some decent comix.

That being said, Prison Funnies looks pretty good. Glad it has an online edition.

  1. Fantastic Four: Ten years ago, Mark Waid and Mike Weiringo gave us the best Flash ever. Now they’re giving us what could possibly be the best FF ever. It’s better than the excellent Byrne run. It’s better than the early and late parts of Lee/Kirby. It’s good enough that Marvel demoted a high-ranking member of the front office to get him back. If the quality continues as it has for the past two years, it may surpass the Lee/Kirby run as a whole.

  2. Fables: Four or five storylines in, and not a single story line has been a dud. The art is compelling by not being flashy.

  3. Supreme Power: “I felt that. I . . . felt that. Do it again.” (Hyperion’s reaction after being hit with a plasma burst powerful enough to leave a large crater and scorch hundreds of acres of earth.) Gorgeous art, wonderful writing, and who hasn’t wondered what would happen if Superman went berzerk without any other superbeings around capable of so much as slowing him down.

The three my wife would be subscribing to:
Y: The Last Man
Gotham Central
Powers

Not to mention that Gilbert and Shelton are the same person. :wally

Shelton worked with Paul Mavrides and Dave Sheridan until the latter’s untimely death in 1982. Also, don’t necessarily rule out a new Freak Brothers comic - Shelton’s still dabbling around.
