Recommend the latest Comic or TPB you have read

Hi since there is a similiar thread on Movies, I tried to find one on Comics but could not.

So I'll start.

I would recommend the following

The Cape

The Crossed

Stitched ( I did not know that a movie was made)

IDW's G.I. Joe, Cobra & Snake Eyes. All three have been awesome.

I recommend that any longtime fans give it a try as IDW starts fresh and makes Cobra more dangerous then we had ever seen in the past. Being a Joe is like having a bullseye on your back and that goes same for Snake Eyes.

Green Hornet: Year One vols 1 and 2 by Matt Wagner and Aaron Campbell. Wagner had an excellent run on Sandman Mystery Theater in the '90s, and he's back in pulp fiction form on this 12-issue series. I'd given up hope on Dynamite's GH titles, but this one is a must-read.

Dracula, adapted by Jason Cobley and Staz Johnson. This was published early this year by Classical Comics. It's one of the best adaptations of Stoker's novel that I've read, and the art is excellent.

Is this basically the Coppola movie?

Doctor Strange and Doctor Doom - Triumph and Torment

Awesome story and cool artwork by Hellboy's Mike Mignola.

Strange and Doom journey to Hell to square off against Mephisto. My all time favorite graphic novel.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

I'm very much enjoying the American Vampire trades.

Coppola added a lot of elements that weren't in Stoker's novel, so this adaptation is not quite the same as what was in the movie.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
