What is your favorite comic book? / LJWorld.com

Asked at Free State FreeCon Comic Book and Toy Convention at the Douglas County 4-H Fairgrounds on May 19, 2008

“Batman. It was the first comic I ever bought, and I’ve been a fan ever since.”

— John Williams, computer specialist, Warrensburg, Mo.

“My favorite is Bucky O’Hare. It’s about a rabbit who flies around in his spaceship fighting evil. It’s really cute. I think it’s a bit more popular with the girls.”

— Jessica Buckner, Kansas University senior, Lawrence

“Fables. The characters are more interesting than any I’ve found. That and Sandman. It’s kind of a tie. I’m a pretty die-hard fan of both.”

— Dan Grate, supervisor, Paola

“The new story line in the Green Lantern comics is really good right now with the big war between all the different Lantern corps.”

— Alexandra Smith, customer service representative, Topeka

I liked the Classics comic books... they were a lot easier to read than the original book, the pictures made it more real than just the book, and it made for a much easier book report...

It has been quite a while, but Mad magazine was some good stuff.

Gunslinger Born...by Stephen King (in all honesty, it's the only comic book I've ever read).

Radioactive Man meets the Kansas City Royals

Seinlanguage by Jerry Seinfeld. Oh, comicbook, not comic's book. Well, then I would have to go with the old-school Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The one where they all wore red bandanas and actually killed ninjas.

I've still got a soft spot in my heart for Swamp Thing.

Also Invisibles, Transmetropolitan, Hellblazer, Incredible/Planet/World War Hulk, Spawn, Liberty Meadows, Sandman, and Cerebus. And as far as comic STRIPS go, Calvin and Hobbes takes the cake.

My #2 devil spawn enjoys manga, but I'd rather have a mango.

NIghtwing is excellent right now, really revitalizing Dick Grayson. All the Batbooks are good at the moment as they gear up for the big Batman RIP this summer.

R-I: What about both at the same time. Sounds heavenly.

Superman is still my favorite after 30+ years of reading it. James Robinson (of Starman fame) will be taking over the title next month. It should be awesome.
