Comic Ideas

grangerboy1 · February 18, 2020, 2:06pm

I like Green Arrow, Nightwing, Batman. Who else should I read. Ideas are welcome

Three awesome choices! I would suggest another ground level character. Seems like you might enjoy The Question as well.

Redhood and the outlaws I really liked, but my all time favorite is the injustice story line so definitly check that out.

We have a Get To Know Section in the Comic Book area, if you just want to explore characters and their background.

The Injustice stuff is amazing love the games, even if I’m not good at lol

TheSandmanofGotham · February 18, 2020, 2:47pm

I would recommend Swamp Thing by Alan Moore, Question by Dennis O’Neil, Hellblazer/Constantine by Peter Mulligan and Garth Ennis, and if you like some solo stories and dark fantasy try Sandman by Neil Gaiman

The games are my favorite dc game ever, but the comics are just as good and they give you ALOT of background to the game, like it went through about 5 years of comics about it.

grangerboy1 · February 18, 2020, 2:48pm

Thank you, I’ll look into it. I’m beginning to want to explore more of the Universe

For the characters you actually listed, the 1996 Nightwing series is great for its first 70 issues.

My go-to Batman recommendation is Batman: The Long Halloween, but I can give you a whole list of good options if you want.

I don’t know or like Green Arrow as much, but people seem to like Green Arrow: The Longbow Hunters and the 1988 series that followed it.

TheSandmanofGotham · February 18, 2020, 2:52pm

I second the Long Halloween, but I also recommend Scott Snyders take of batman in The Black Mirror and The New 52 run

As for Green Arrow, I highly recommend The Longbow Hunters and Grells run as well

Think mostly the GA thing is because of Black Canary. I want to be better

grangerboy1 · February 18, 2020, 2:56pm

Long Halloween is a favorite I got to read Harleen. It looks awesome

TheSandmanofGotham · February 18, 2020, 2:57pm

Havent read it yet, but heard it was good. Plus I like the slip it comes with

BatJamags · February 18, 2020, 2:58pm

For Black Canary, I’d recommend the original '99 Birds of Prey series. It’s another all-time favorite of mine.

TheSandmanofGotham · February 18, 2020, 2:59pm

Birds of prey by Chuck Dixon and Gail Simon are good starts.

TheSandmanofGotham · February 18, 2020, 3:01pm

The hardcover art looks fantasic once you see it removed

grangerboy1 · February 18, 2020, 3:02pm

I might actually get the hardcover just for that lol looks so good

baseballmaniac01.45870 · February 18, 2020, 11:43pm

Try these:
Hawkman
The Terrifics
The Flash
Detective Comics(Batman)
Oh, and that other comic book company puts out a pretty mean book that goes by the name of Daredevil.

I recommend paying attention to some of the writers that you’ve enjoyed with those characters and seeing if they write other ones. That’s what led me to Jeff Lemire’s Animal Man and Denny ONeil’s Question. Both if I had to recommend, I do.

BZRICHARDS16 · February 21, 2020, 8:06am

Jeff Lemire’s Green Arrow run was also pretty great. I would also suggest Tom King’s Omega Men.
