This is a must-read for any X-Men fans. Joss Whedon (Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Serenity) Does an excellent job on this book. Also check out Volume 2 featuring what some call the greatest Prof. X Smackdown of all time.%D%A%D%AQuoted: Amazon.com: Astonishing X-Men Vol. 1: Gifted: Books: Joss Whedon,John Cassaday by Joss Whedon,John Cassaday

This is another Awesome read. This isn't the silly goofy cartoon, this is a bad ass super hero. I got it thinking the former, and was so astonished by how awesome it was.%D%A%D%AQuoted: Amazon.com: Space Ghost: Books: Joe Kelly by Joe Kelly

This is an awesome series. I have up to 13. This was Marvel's way of kind of re-booting the Marvel U without having it effect everything else. So now there's the Ultimate U. There's also Ultimate X-Men, Fantastic 4, and The Ultimates (The Ultimate U's Avengers) which I would say is my seceond Favorite Title currently. %D%A%D%AQuoted: Amazon.com: Ultimate Spider-Man, Vol. 1: Books by Brian Michael Bendis

I talked to my friends who have read this and they say it's really good, however, the sequal, the Dark Night Strikes Again is lame. Also, if you want some bad ass batma read Hush and War Games.

I'm not huge on Batman, but I know Frank Miller had some aclaim for this work. If you want I'll thumb through it next time I'm at my friend's shop. Though I can't beat amazon's price, I get 10% off everything I buy from my friend's shop. Let me know if you ever want me to pick something up for you.
