I'm definitely nominating dbutler69's Spend Your Allowance Game. Such a fun way to relive comic history; it's introduced me to some new titles and issues I wouldn't have known about otherwise, and it's also encouraged me to make more meaningful use of the invaluable resource that is Mike's Amazing World. Thanks so much for the fun, dbutler69! |

Gonna nominate the Weekly Showdown Thread by @jaska
It’s a thoughtful topic, and I like how he made the logical decision to compare apples with apples (Marvel Secret Wars versus DC's Super Powers) than the direction most, myself included, go with, which is apples and oranges (Crisis on Infinite Earths versus Secret Wars). A good start to the thread, and I also nominate it because I think it has, like any good thread should, elicited a lot of thought-provoking discussion.

I'd like to in turn recognize driver1980 and his Consensus in comics thread. One of the things I really enjoy with many of his threads is the ability to throw out an interesting question like this one, but then also add great analogies beyond comic books like to movies in this case, or say wrestling or other subjects that add even more interesting perspective and often generate great further discussion. As you read through this particular thread, it really did spark not only the direct question responses, but lots of fun sidebars that kept going and I think that's the sign of a great thread at the end of the day. |

I'm going to go with Spoon's " Heroes with Multiple Titles" I had never really spent much time thinking about why some heroes have multiple books but the nostalgia of the triangle era of Superman was fun to relive. |

This is one I've never seen but they look fantastic! Man, I need someone to tell me about all these awesome threads, how do I miss them? |
