I used to read alot more than I do now. I still try to pick up a few titles here and there but mostly i just pick up Trade Paper Backs (TPB).
My Personal Recommendations for those interested in picking up a few comics without getting in too hardcore are as follows.
The Sandman - 10 Volumes in TPB form pick up the first two and it will give you a pretty good indication of the series although the 3rd trade has the World Fantasy Award winning short story A Midsummer Nights Dream.
Preacher - Funny as hell with some of the most twisted shit in comics.
Batman: The Dark Knight Returns - Batman at 50 has to put the suit back on to save a completely broken down Gotham. Best Batman story ever.
Watchmen - Best comic series ever. Well developed characters with real goals. It starts out pretty simple and just becomes more and more complex. Also the best, most desturbing ending.
Sin City - If you love Film Noir check any of the Sin City books out.
X-man: God loves, Man kills - The inspiration for X2, and a great read.
See the best part about comics today is that there's something for everyone. It's no longer just guys in funny tights and girls with big boobs.
