I love superheroes so I have a pretty big stash of DC and Marvel comics. Nothing other than that appeals to me in terms of comics.
I know it's a bit of cliche and a vanilla answer, but I love Spiderman and Deadpool. I think it's mostly because of their personalities though. I also like Batman, but that's for whole different reasons.
Spiderman and Batman are pretty cool, they're among my favorites. I don't really like Deadpool as a character, but I think we have relatively the same tastes!
It feels like all my favorite comics are published by Image Comics lately. They have so many unique and fantastic titles like The Walking Dead, Saga, Chew, Rat Queens and Sex Criminals. I highly suggest anyone who likes odd stories and humor to check them out. I'm also really liking the new Ms. Marvel series with Kamala Khan. Of course, my all time favorite is Watchmen.
I have never actually read comic books yet but I wanted to try out the Marvel ones. I have friends who are always discussing events in the movies as opposed to the comics and, as someone who is used to reading a book before watching the movie, it frustrates me not to know. Anyone know a good place to start?
It's best to just jump in with Marvel comics and eventually you'll realize how the stories fit together. I can give you some suggestions though. If you're a Star Wars fan, consider reading their new comics that Marvel is releasing. The ones focusing on Leia are especially great. The latest Mrs. Marvel series is getting a lot of praise, and you really only need a vague sense of who everyone is to pick it up. The "A Finely Tangled Web" series is a good starting point for Black Widow comics. Any Deadpool comic is a easy read. Since the character is insane and can break the fourth wall, you don't have to worry about continuity very much.
I love star wars! I will definitely check out those comics. Thank you for all the suggestions, I will star looking the easy ones you said first to get a feel of the universe and then dive in deeper. I love black widow so the Tangled Web one will probably be the first one I check out.
I don't read comic books since I don't like reading. I prefer to watch the animation itself than to read.
