| The four indy staples:
1. Bone
2. Cerebus
3. Concrete
4. Madman
Theres a reason these books get so much attention. All are pretty widely available in trade paperback. I'm sure you could get them at Borders or B&N even now.
I've gone from mainstream books, to lots of weird indy shit, back to the mainstream stuff. Mainly because I can't afford to invest the time and money into trying lots of new stuff anymore but I love comic books and like to at least keep up with whats going on with my favorite characters. There is actually a lot of really good shit coming out now which I can't afford.
Another good option is to check the library. I get a lot of stuff there. Any of the DC/Vertigo stuff is typically topnotch and readily available. If you haven't read any of the Sandman stuff yet you are missing out. |
