favorite comic/manga

[Bretton]

what is it?

mine is probably Leviathan

[ShawnYe]

Bastard! and Berserk.
but it takes a year for just one issue :(

[Redder]

TMNT before it went commerical and got ruined.

[lavhoes]

The Path

Shame it got cancelled; Bart Sears has come a long way in his art.

[NanoEntity]

Not Manga but...
Last Exile - Anime - Amzing - Seen all 26EPs in Japanese subbed in english.

I Highly Recommend, very long, took me 2 days to watch ti all...

About 30-45min per EP.

Only 2 DVDs are out in US, if you want english version, really amazing.

Manga

. Ah! Megami Sama (Oh! My Goddess).
. Chirality was also pretty good.

Comic

. Fate Of The Blade. Does anyone know if this is still being made. I haven't seen an issue for a few months now :(
. Witchblade. Unfortunately it went downhill after Michael Turner left.
. Wetworks. When Whilce Portacio was still working on it. Doesn't exist anymore.
. Weapon Zero. Doesn't exist anymore.

Anime

. Ebichu-chan. :D
. Punni Punni Poemi. Kind of a follow up to Excel Saga. Imagine all of the insanity of Excel Saga pushed into two half hour eps.
. Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust.

I could just keep on going with the Anime section, but I wont :D

[Marcatili]

i enjoy FLCL!
something about that anime has a nice freshness that others don't seem to...
perhaps it's the regularly changing animation style or perhaps the music...dunno

foolycooly

[Mr. Teatime]

one piece

naruto

yeah...pre-cartoon TMNT rocked.

[cybercyst]

I have two favorite comics...'Invincible' by Cory Walker and 'The Pro' by Amanda Conner. I like 'The Pro' because it's abut a hooker who becomes a superhero. Just think what a super-hooker can do with super-speed. Heh.:D

Both the manga and anime.

[PhilHolland]

I've been out of comics for a while.
But, I'll agree the Weapon Zero rocked. Benitez's detail was crazy.
His run on the Darkness was good to.

Um, Battle Chases & Danger Girl. Duh.
Joe Mad is such a talented designer.
Jeff Scott Campbell is one of the more consistant artists around. Plus he's got a great sense of humor.

Inhumans - the Jenkins and Jae Lee run.

I'm more artist based.
Check out Travis Charest's work on Wildcats.

Anything Alex Ross & Adam Hughes.

Look for Angel Medina as well. Currently doing Spawn. Great artist. Great guy too.

Carlos Pacheco's run on Xmen was good.

Kaare Andrews covers on the Hulk and other stuff is great.

That's what is on the top of my head.

Phil

[Skank]

comics: (i too follow artists)

battle chasers....i wish he wouldve wrapped it up :(

the darkness...the first parts of each run have been great, dale K's art is still great...even tho he cant meet a deadline to save his life its usually worth the wait.

travis charests run on wild cats was short lived but amazing

the recent jim lee batman run...amazing as well

sin city: frank miller is the man

ghost in the shell...for obvious reasons!!!

anime:
ninja scroll, without a doubt my favorite of all time

ghost in the shell...again, for obvious reasons

macross plus: great mini series

robotech: nuff said

neon genisis: cleche'..maybe..still great?? yes!

[Bretton]

comics/manga:
Hellsing
Blame!
MPD Psycho

Anime:
Vampire HunterD:Bloodlust
Boogiepop Phantom
Cowboy Bebop
Hellsing
Akira
Now and Then, Here and There

and lots more :]

[Aven]

Hey Skank. When you say the Macross Plus Mini series, I guess you mean the four part OAV? If so, you should check out the Movie Edition. I think it is heaps better. It does cut out a fair bit of action, but it makes it more solid. It is also a really good anime to watch. There are just so many though :D

Plastic Little (Satoshi Urushihara is the man)
Perfect Blue. Show it to people who say that all anime is crap.

[Hanuka]

I used to read Marvel-Stuff primarily X-Men and some Mangas as well. But Im not really into it.

atm I read SHAMO , dunno if its really known. Serious, this manga has some stunning characters and dramaturgy. Plus I like the art.

I've also read Berserk, Island and some other stuff. Island has amazing artworks but the story is totally messed up by unbelievable characters/character development and dialogues. Sometimes its just plain stupid :/

Nowadays my favorite comics are elftor and dilbert XD bad arts, but great humor ;)

[Diego]

Favourites:
Slam Dunk - Takehiko Inoue
Blade of The Inmortal - Hiroaki Samura
Evangelion - Yoshiyuki Sadamoto

[Iiori]

I have to many to count..:P

Manga:
Love Hina
King of Hell
Bleach

Comic:
Silver Surfer all the way.
Fantastic four.

Anime:
Grave of the firefiles
Samuria X T&B&R
Metropolis
Perfect blue/ jih Roh
Vampire hunter d/bloodlust
Golden Boy ^^!


Voices of a distant star is pretty good, since it was like one man and his wife who did the whole movie.

[Fightergraf]

I like Lupin III the old manga, and the old 0079 Gundam. Anime wise I like alot of the older ones like Robotech ect, but theres a few newer ones like Full Metal Panic and Cowboy Bebop that I like too.

[klid]

naruto and blade of the immortal

ya!
ive seen the movie version, its good stuff! i like the scenes they added, (like the dudes head blowing up..hehe good stuff) but wish they hadnt taken some of the others out.
i need to get em on DVD, i dont have a VCR anymore, and all my anime is on tape....:bash:

[Valcon Jet]

Comics:

Johnny the Homicidal Maniac

And Preacher, of course.

Anime: FLCL and Excell Saga (i'm weird.)

[cybercyst]

I liked watching Excel Saga...well, the first DVD, then after watching the second one I'd had enough. I guess the humor just didn't jive with me. I like Hyatt, and also that little hand-held "romance" game Ilpalazzo plays...funny!:D

[egerie]

HK & FLCL (those are actual titles!) :D

[pogonip]

Phill that was wierd you have almost the same list as me( Huge fan of Benitez and Angel Medina ) . I would add Masamune shirow to that list and put the Ghost in the shell books on there . I think anyone would has read METABARONS would also put that book and Jaun Gimenez on there list for comics .

Anime ( I am a total snob )

Vampire Hunter D 1-2
Anything by Miyazaki ( especially spirited away )
Ghost in the shell
Akira ( though the comic was better )
Patlabor
Ninja Scroll
