Lately I've taken more of an interest in American comics. To be more specific WitchBlade and ElfQuest. I've read most of the graphic novels they had on WitchBlade and ElfQuest in the library. I was even able to find an old copy of ElfQuest in an cool antique shop I found once that has a lot comics for sell. They're not very new(my copy of ElfQuest is almost as old as me) but they're still interesting. So out of curiosity which comics do you read?

These are all kind of based in the 'real world'--Fables has the most fantastical elements. DMZ doesn't have any magic or fantasy elements and Y has eliminated all of the male gender except for a guy and his pet monkey.
I also read Ex Machina and the comic where the X-men were in 1602.

My fave comic of all time is Dr Strange. I was very pleased to see that Marvel Comics is up to volume 3 of "the Essential Dr Strange" which is basically all the old comics collected into book volumes. REALLY good stuff.

It's always easier when they're in book format. Easier to collect and they're longer.
