Vash saying he's reading Dr Strange in the other thread prompted me to make this one. So what does everyone read generally/what are you reading now?
I got into reading graphic novels only a few years ago, and typically have a reasonable sized collection that I've read very little of. I'm slowly changing that, though. I started reading the main stories and crossovers from Disassembled to get an idea of the general state of things on the Marvel side. I've done Avengers vs X-Men, and am now hitting the main stories and arcs from there to Secret Wars before I read Secret Wars itself, both on the 616 and Ultimate side of things. I've just finished the entire Ultimate Spiderman run, and will move onto Miles next.
I want to get into DC as well, and have got both DC Infinite and Marvel Unlimited subscriptions. I only found out recently that they've made it easy to read comics on your phone now through those apps, which is a massive game changer for how much I'll be reading. I've found a few decent lists of essential DC comics, and I'm going to start with No Man's Land (nothing like staring with something simple!) and work my way through from there, hitting the main 2000s arcs.
Away from both of those, I've read the entirety of the Walking Dead, but have quite a few other full series, including Invincible, Chew, Paper Girls, East of West, Y The Last Man, Saga, Sandman and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. So yeah, the backlog is real.
