Loved JSA: The Liberty Files and wanted more pulp JSA. Would really like to see a movie take on this style of JSA. Tom Strong continues the excellent Ingrid Weiss/Paul Savini story, with Tom's son. Really awesome moments for Dahlua Strong, one of the baddest badass women in comics.

James Robinson, the occasional Hellboy and Alan Moore were about the end of my comics reading, in the 90s and 2000s.

Promethea #5 - by far my favourite of the ABC books, right from the start
Tomorrow Stories #5 - like most anthologies this varied from issue to issue and within each issue but was always fun
Yeah #5 - a lightweight series aimed at kids, but I tried everything by the Hernandez bros. and this was still fun for the late-30s me at the time

If the world had continued, and comics were published, I would have bought these:
