"can you give me a list of comics i should read?"

[Name]

I recently recommended Morrison's Doom Patrol to somebody, as it was one of the first comics I ever read, and I had a copy of volume 1 handy. It seems to be working so far.

I just sent a buddy of mine who's stuck on an Army base in Buttfart, TX a bunch of comics. Knowing he'd been out of the game for a while, and knowing that I'd need to ease him into the more esoteric stuff out there, I sent him the first couple of stories from the following:

All-Star Batman & Robin
Astonishing X-Men (Whedon/Cassady)
The Authority (Ellis/Hitch)
Daredevil (Bendis/Maleev)
Fantastic Four (Waid/Wieringo)
Gotham Central
Immortal Iron Fist
Nextwave, Agents of H.A.T.E.
Scalped
Uncanny X-Force
We3
Y: The Last Man

Thor: The Mighty Avenger
Stumptown
Ex Machina
Pride Of Baghdad
Young Justice
Superman Red Son
Batman: Hush (which is not the greatest, I admit, but I view it more as fun cliff notes)
Batwoman: Elegy
The Question by Denis O'neill
Runaways
Young Avengers
Marvel Zombies 1 & 2
The Ultimates 1 & 2

Not the pinnacle of the medium, but all good fun.
