This is a thread to post a panel or series of panels that you think highlight why a particular title is worth checking out.

RULES
1. One full page at most. DO NOT post a whole series of pages, much less an entire issue. This is not Scans Daily.
2. This is not about spoilers. DO NOT post the big surprises/twists/endings of new issues the day they come out.
3. Let's keep things positive here and just talk about books we like that we think people should check out. If you don't have something nice to say about someone's suggestion just don't say anything and just make your own suggestion.

I'll get things started.

MOON KNIGHT

As much as I think Bendis has spread himself thin with too many titles, occasionally little moments like this pop up and the Bendis we all fell in love with shines through.

Bendis is not a bad writer. His street-level and solo character books are great (Ultimate Spidey, Moon Knight). It's just his team books that are just so terrible (Avengers, New Avengers). Sure he has Bendis-speak, but it's not as annoying in a book with one main character.

Anyway...

Why you should be reading...Gladstone's School for World Conquerors

Because who doesn't love the idea of a school just for super villain kids where they have subjects like "Evil Monologue" and "World Domination"? Especially with the fantastic writing and beautiful art. And next week is the perfect time to jump in with the first TPB on sale next Wednesday!

That was a perfect first reply, RIP.

Also, sign me up for Gladstone's because I'll be getting that trade.

Oh, and you're absolutely right about Bendis.

You should be reading Demon Knights. It's basically a Dungeons & Dragons comic set in the history of the DCU. And it has a super-hilarious Vandal Savage doing stuff like this:

Two pages later, he kills a dinosaur with another dinosaur. Mmmmyeah.

When you think about it, Vandal Savage from Demon Knights is basically Aquaman from the Brave and the Bold.

OH YES. EXACTLY.

Absolutely. He's also easily the best character in the series.

And I'm glad you'll pick up the Gladstone trade, Chris! It's really a freaking great book and I love it to pieces.

Look at that art!
The writing/story is pretty darn good too!
