Besides House of M and Civil War saga, what another sagas would you recommend me!


Question: It could be from Marvel, DC, Darkhorse or another comics house company.


Answers: It could be from Marvel, DC, Darkhorse or another comics house company.

I'm totally a Marvel guy and would have reccomended World War/Planet Hulk, Annihilation in addition to the Ultimates 1 &2 (both aavailible in hardcover graphic novel format). I dislike all the other Ultimates books, (Spider-Man, X-Men, FF), but really liked this new take on the Avengers.

But, some DC stories I've enjoyed were Justice, Kingdom Come, 52 and Countdown (which I've only read 3 issues of).

If you're a Star Wars fan, check out Dark Horse's Star Wars: Legacy. It's a hot new series that stays true to Star Wars mythology. My 2nd favorite book right now (New Avengers would be my current #1). Also notable is the BPRD books, connected to the Hellboy franchise and The Darkness.

52 and countdown and identity crisis

"annihilation wave" is good. I am more into the cosmic characters like the herald's of galactus, super nova, kree, and skrull, it has them all. i just finished reading them.

i haven't gotten the chance to but i would also like to read the world war hulk and planet hulk sagas.

maybe you should try the infiniti gauntlet crossover as well.

marvel is my favorite comic lable.

Planet Hulk/World War Hulk, they're a good followup to Civil War.

Here's details for two of my faves, but everything else mentioned above is quality, too
Title: Fables
Writer/Artist: Bill Willingham, Mark Buckingham, and others. Covers by James Jean.
Publisher: DC Vertigo
Genre: Fantasy, Mature Readers

Summary
Fables has what you might think of as a rather easy concept, but writer Bill Willingham has made it easily one of the most intriguing books being published today. Basicly, all the fairy tale characters you know and love (Prince Charming, Snow White, The Big Bad Wolf, Beauty and the Beast, Little Boy Blue, Pinnochio, etc.) all used to live in the same world together, until a mysterious unstoppable villain called The Adversary assembled an army and swept across the lands, conquering everything. The Fables that could escaped to our world, which they call the Mundane world (and they refer to humans derisively as Mundies). They established a community for themselves in New York City, living in isolation so as not to reveal their true immortal natures, while plotting a way to win their homelands back. They've been here for hundreds of years, but a realistic effort to return to the homelands now seems unlikely, and most Fables are resigned to a normal daily routine in their new world. But some can't quite escape their nature.

The first arc is a muder mystery, when Rose Red (sister of Snow White) goes missing and her apartment is covered in blood. Bigby Wolf is Fabletown's sherrif and takes the case. The second arc, Animal Farm, deals with the large upstate property where all the non-human looking fables (the three little pigs, all the animals from the jungle book, dragons, giant, etc.) are kept. But they've become restless and tired of being cooped up in hiding... which makes it very easy for Goldielocks (who's been reading far too much Marx) to instigate a revolution.

One of the most recent arc deals with how the adversary in the other world has begun marching into the lands of the Arabian fables, causing an influx of arabs with archaic values and social structures into the new world, causing numerous cultural clashes (especially when the arabians find their beloved city of Baghdad an occupied city in this world).

It's a large overlapping tale that's just lots of fun with all the twists and turns it takes, and how you truly never know what might happen to some of these characters next.


Title: Invincible
Writer/Artist: Robert Kirkman (The Walking Dead, Marvel Team-Up), Ryan Ottley, Cory Walker
Publisher: Image
Genre: Superheroes

Invincible is the Eisner Award-nominated top selling Image book, created and written by Robert Kirkman (same guy who's doing The Walking Dead, Marvel Zombies, Marvel Team Up, and Ultimate X-Men). Here's the pitch from the back of volume one:

"Mark Grayson is just like most everyone else his age. He's a senior at a normal American high School. He has a crappy part time job after school and on weekends. He likes girls quite a bit... but doesn't quite understand them. He enjoys hanging out with his friends, and sleeping late on Saturdays... at least until the good cartoons come on. The only difference between Mark and everyone else is that his father is the most powerful superhero on the planet, and as of late, he seems to be inheriting his father's powers. Strange things begin to happen to Mark Grayson as he begins to develop superpowers. Luckily, his dad is around to show him the ropes, at least he would be if he weren't so busy saving the world all the time. "

But that's just the begining. Over only two years, Kirkman has not only developed Mark and his father into amazingly fleshed out characters, he's created a whole world around Mark that rivals the entire Marvel or DC Universes in variety and creativity. The twists are non stop, as is the fun. The plot is no holds barred, the storytelling is top notch, and it is downright the best superhero title being published today.
