If you had to pick one , and only one, new comic being published today for a person to read , which comic would it be?
My pick is Savage Dragon. The most unpredictable book on the stands.

It's been around for a long time but it's still the best continuing title that I know of out there at the moment: Love and Rockets.
But I read things in TPB collections, mostly, so there could be something recent that I haven't tried or even heard of yet.

Atomic Robo! The most fun I've had reading comics in decades.

Monstress. Fascinating world that feels very supernatural, and Marjorie M. Liu's story is engaging in that page-turning-mystery-novel-type of way. Sana Takeda's artwork is insanely gorgeous, and her art style is how I once imagined anime would someday evolve into. Excited to dive into the second chapter this September.

I think that Busiek's The Autumnlands has a lot of potential. (As far as recent finite series...The Sixth Gun! I still have issue #50, which was the last issue, to read but I highly recommend it. Just great, fun, comics with likable, yet interesting, characters.)

Finder by Carla Speed McNeil. It's no longer published regularly, but it hasn't ended yet, so...

Black Science from Image by Rick Remender and Matteo Scalera. Truly creative science-fiction and once you read an issue then you have to go back and read it again because it totally drags you into the story and you find something you missed or understand it better once having re-read it. Scalera's art is wonderfully imaginative and creative and fully captivates.

Scalera's art is wonderfully imaginative and creative and fully captivates. I love Black Science. I'm planning to re-read the first three tpbs before getting stuck into the fourth, which I purchased a couple weeks ago. My recommendation would probably be Saga. It seems to be this decade's Sandman, as far as being a comic that all kinds of non-comics readers can get into. |

Lazarus by Greg Rucka and Michael Lark. Great world building and mythology, and an original take on the future dystopia genre.

I'd smack the person repeatedly until he/she agreed to try Usagi Yojimbo, of course  |
