I picked up that recent reissue of Something is Killing the Children issue 1 because of your recommendation! Very excited to start collecting its trades when I can.
I just Superman For All Seasons today and read it and absolutely fell in love with it i will be putting more respect on Superman's name from here on out
If you like "Hush”, I highly recommend “Heart of Hush" by Paul Dini and Dustin Nguyen. When I learned about "Hush 2" I thought it was a weird project. I don’t know if it will ignore Dini and Nguyen’s work.
I recently finished reading both DWJ books and SIKTC was my entry into indie comics as well. I have read Batman Court of Owls and planning on reading Hush very soon
That was me a month ago! I was totally ignoring indie books, and wow, was I wrong. DANIEL WAREN THE GOAT JOHNSON writes peak! Geoff Johns with the other Ghost Machine writers are incredible! And tbh, I think I prefer indie books now! Don't sleep on indie books.
I agree with you 100% about Daniel Warren Johnson. Everything I’ve read, and I’ve read it all, is golden. I have my favorites, but they’re all worth reading!
A tip for this vid, you should of added time stamps in it and obviously each time stamp will have each comic in it because it would be easier for people, because let’s say someone is specifically only looking for like Batman comics it’s gonna be a little hard for them to find it.
Solid recommendations for new readers. I’ve always loved dc and marvel comics equally for as long as I can remember. Wally is the best flash though lol. I still like Barry a lot. Not the biggest fan of hush though. The art is amazing but I think the mystery is pretty weak. Long Halloween is so much better for me. Dceased is much better than marvel zombies. Marvel zombies is weirdly comically nihilistic. Definitely check it out though.
A lot of old but golds: Superman: Red Son, Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow, Watchmen, Jack Kirby's New Gods, The Dark Knight Returns. X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills, Wolverine (Claremont & Miller), Old Man Logan, Thanos Quest & Infinity Gauntlet, and Winter Soldier.
Marvel: Old Man Logan(Mark Millar), Uncanny X-Force(Rememder), Punisher Max(Ennis, his one shots and mini series for Punisher are all great, The Cell, The End). Mark Millars indie stuff is excellent. DC: Green Lantern(rebirth and then his main series run), Planetary, Hawkman(Venditti), Batman Joker Deadly Duo(Silvestri). DWJ is great, his current run on Transformers is great and I’m not a transformers guy. I can’t agree on Aaron though, his Punisher run was an abomination.
Great video man! Thanks for the recommendations. I’m definitely gonna have to check out City Boy one of these days. If you haven’t already read it, read Batman: The Long Halloween by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale! I’ve only gotten about half way though and I’m absolutely loving it. I’d also recommend Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps if you have any interest in the Green Lanterns. It’s a fantastic story. Green Lantern: Rebirth is also very good. It does a great job of making each Green Lantern unique in their own way. And for my final recommendation I have Justice League International! Such a great run that takes lesser known heroes (at least to the general audience) like Booster Gold, Doctor Light, Ted Kord Blue Beetle, Guy Gardner Green Lantern and many others alongside Batman and Martian Manhunter as team leaders. It’ll also influence some aspects of James Gunn’s new DCU! Peace out everyone! Stay safe and love each other ✌️
My Recommendations Indie: Gideon falls, something is killing the children, lock and key, the last ronin(tmnt) DC: the nice house on the lake(indie but under DC), Batman black mirror, Batman dark victory, Batman White knight, Injustice years 1-5 all 5 books, All star Superman, The Authortiy Marvel: Secret wars 2015, house of M, Venom by Donny cates, King in black also by Donny cates which follows his venom run and absolute carnage which is also part of this venom run and king in black, silver surfer black.
this video hit its intended audience I haven't read a single comic nor do I watch marvel or dc movies. I do read a lot of manga so i am interested might pick up your batman recommendation.
Hey, man! I've got a few comic recommendations as well! If you haven't read any Hellboy I couldn't recommend it enough. It goes so hard. As well as B.P.R.D. which takes place in the same universe and it is a team book with really cool characters and I think it is the better comic of the Mignolaverse. And an entirely different universe, Harrow County. It is a creepy book with American folklore from the south. The art is absolutely beautiful!
Love the recommendations! I have read most of them, and will definitely check out ones I haven't. Here are some of my recs: DC Comics: Mark Waid's 90s Flash run. Mark Waid's and Alex Ross's Kingdom Come. Grant Morrison's late 90s JLA. DC One Million. Geoff Johns' Flash run in the 2000s. Geoff Johns' Green Lantern Run. Marvel Comics: Kurt Busiek's and Alex Ross's Marvels. Grant Morrison's New X-Men. Jason Aaron's Weapon X: Wolverine run. Rick Remender's Uncanny X-Force. Chip Zadarsky's Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man run. Indie: Mike Mignola's Hellboy. Kurt Busiek's Astro City. Jeff Smith's Bone. Brian K. Vaughn's and Pia Guerra's Y The Last Man.
No. FLASHPOINT was dog feces, though, it was GREAT art. He ruined Barry Allen, whose parents did NOT die in comics. He had a good family with nothing of the sort that Bruce or Clark faced. NEW 52 should have been an altered timeline EVENT that lasted 2-3 years, before it was fixed, bringing back the original continuity from PRE-Flashpoint.
Ah dang that's unfortunate! I normally hear good things about midtown so that surprises me, but I've also never order comics online so I don't really know of any website 😅 But i know there's a bunch out there!
Yoooooooo ! You think Planet Hulk is your favorite marvel book ? Flash is your GOAT at DC, you think Blue Beetle is underrated, man do you have great taste. I dug your list alot bro.
I've only been into comic for a few months now, but how do characters not age? Like spiderman life story is if he aged in real time, so obviously he isn't aging but how? Same with batman, hasn't he had 4 Robins at this point and the 3 before Damien have all grown up? Shouldn't batman be crazy old?
Batman is definitely a bit older now, but basically DC has "reboots" that reset character ages and such, and Marvel has a weird sliding time scale sort of thing where you the books are always taking place "now". Super confusing haha just try not to think about it too much when reading haha
@@Steady_packs One example I can think of is DC Universe Rebirth by Geoff Johns. The cast begin to realize that something is horribly wrong with their memories and that something isn’t right prior to the events of the New 52. I don’t want to get into too much detail to avoid spoiling but it’s great that they can acknowledge it through its overarching story.

W!!!
Had to follow as soon as I saw you recommend DWJ first, he's got epic stories with heart and they are so good
More great Indi reads would be Invincible, TMNT Last Ronin, Spawn, and The Walking Dead.
I thought last ronin was very bad. I know I’m the minority but I thought the writing was for a younger audience.
invincible 100%
I just Superman For All Seasons today and read it and absolutely fell in love with it i will be putting more respect on Superman's name from here on out
If you like "Hush”, I highly recommend “Heart of Hush" by Paul Dini and Dustin Nguyen. When I learned about "Hush 2" I thought it was a weird project. I don’t know if it will ignore Dini and Nguyen’s work.
WATCHMEN!, Batman Year One, Batman Dark Knight, X-men Dark Phoenix Saga, V for Vendeta, are must reads... lots more out there
I recently finished reading both DWJ books and SIKTC was my entry into indie comics as well. I have read Batman Court of Owls and planning on reading Hush very soon
Great video! Alan Moore's Swamp Thing run really got me into collecting comics, so weird but in the best way, would definitely recommend.
Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees was a great read, highly recommend. Also, your content is dope man keep it up.
When speedsultan post a video yk it’s a good day
I want as much flash as I can get so I will be grabbing these pre flashpoint books!
That was me a month ago! I was totally ignoring indie books, and wow, was I wrong. DANIEL WAREN THE GOAT JOHNSON writes peak! Geoff Johns with the other Ghost Machine writers are incredible! And tbh, I think I prefer indie books now! Don't sleep on indie books.
The video I was waiting for! New to comics and while awesome, seeing collections like yours are overwhelming for sure so this is clutch 🙌
I’m here for the indies, so thank you for showing it!
Ayee hell yea!!

Another bang from the goat himself, keep it up 🔥

BTW a lot of the DC books you mentioned are availble for $10 a piece in compact format
It's a great way for newbies to start
100%!!
Love this video idea
I agree with you 100% about Daniel Warren Johnson. Everything I’ve read, and I’ve read it all, is golden. I have my favorites, but they’re all worth reading!
Ayeee you know whats up 🤝🙌

Fire video bro, can you show your omnibus’s if you have any and if you don’t have any what ones do you want? 🔥
I love the Omnibus editions i hope this becomes a video
I only have 3 😅 all 3 volumes of Geoff Johns Flash run
Solid recommendations for new readers. I’ve always loved dc and marvel comics equally for as long as I can remember. Wally is the best flash though lol. I still like Barry a lot. Not the biggest fan of hush though. The art is amazing but I think the mystery is pretty weak. Long Halloween is so much better for me. Dceased is much better than marvel zombies. Marvel zombies is weirdly comically nihilistic. Definitely check it out though.

Nice Video bro, could you do a Comic recommendations video in the future ? I need new stuff to read 😥
I picked up Hush today before watching the vid ! Anotha W vid bro!
Marvel: Old Man Logan(Mark Millar), Uncanny X-Force(Rememder), Punisher Max(Ennis, his one shots and mini series for Punisher are all great, The Cell, The End). Mark Millars indie stuff is excellent.

Yes sir you are definitely on “elite level” when it comes to the comic game big dawg 🤯💪🏽
Ayee thank you!! 🙏

@@thespeedsultan ok 😂. Do DC characters ever acknowledge that they are getting reset? Or does it just go unacknowledged?

Handsome man ❤
