Green Lantern/Green Lantern Corps

Captain Amerca and Iron-Man are awesome. Hercules too.

Superman count as cosmic? Because Superman's been awesome for two or three years now.

Also, get into cosmis. Both companies best stuff is cosmic. Nova, Guardian's of the Galaxy, Rebels, Green Lantern, Marvel's space events.

>I'm new to /co/. Hate away.

We don't hate new people here. Especially new people looking for stuff to get into.

We only really despise trolls.

R.E.B.E.L.S. is fuckwin

>>14435798
You should probably start with trade paperbacks.
But anyway, I only really know DC, so
DC:
Batman & Robin
Green Lantern
Green Lantern Corps
Red Robin
And Superman(If you want)

Why would we hate if you are new?
Anyway. For marvel ongoings. Read some Guardians of the Galaxy and Nova.

Well, I can't help with Marvel but for DC
Red Robin
GLC
Supergirl
Action Comics
Batman and Robin

OP Here.
I am gonna read some cosmic, but was thinking like Avengers and XMEN for Marvel and JL for DC, but I'm not sure which books/

We don't hate new people. Welcome aboard!

I really like pretty much the entire run of Punisher MAX, so enjoy.

I'm not familiar with Green Lantern too much, but what's with that planet with the Lantern symbol?

>I'm new to /co/. Hate away

But I love you!

DC:
Detective Comics
Jonah Hex
Booster Gold
The Shield
Superman

Marvel:

Secret Warriors
Incredible Hercules
Punishermax
Amazing Spider-Man
New Mutants

If you want cosmic then be sure to read R.E.B.E.L.S. and definitely be sure to read World of New Krypton.

That book was like a guided tour of cosmic DC.

>>14435870
I'm a fool! Replace Amazing Spider-Man with Captain America!

>>14435869
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mogo

>Mogo is a sentient or "living" planet, technically genderless but often casually referred to as male. When it is desired, its affiliation with the Corps is marked with foliage arranged into a green band, marked with the standard Green Lantern Corps lantern symbol, circling Mogo's equatorial area.

>>14435869
It's a Green Lantern. HURR DURR.

>>14435909
>HURR DURR
The dude is a new reader. What's wrong with you?

> Hate away

You're not in /b/ anymore, son.

Green Lantern Corps
Batman and Robin
Jonah Hex
Teen Titans
Red Robin

I don't really follow Marvel comics too much but I would recommend getting started with Siege if you want to know whats currently happening.

>>14435909
>HURR DURR.
>at someone not familiar with comics

Die in a fire.

>>14435909

So they actually gave a planet a Lantern ring?

>>14435920
I was a new reader too but at least I had the sense to see "Oh Green Lantern symbol. Must be a Green Lantern."

>>14435931
>Teen Titans
Evaluate, please. I have heard only negative things from this

Why not try some Dark Horse OP?
Hellboy
The Goon
B.P.R.D.
Yusagai Yojimbo
Starwars Comics
Conan
Sin City
those are all some titles I reccomend

>>14435951
Yes. And he assigns the rings.

>>14435860
The current JLA book just got a bit of a reset last issue(41) so that's a good place to jump in. There's no way to really know how good it'll be because the writer has been very hit or miss lately (some of his work has been fucking awesome but other parts have been absolute shit).

Morrison and Waid's runs are good though if you want something already collected and finished.

>>14435964
It could very well be a planet where all the GL's hang out. Not necessarily a sentient planet that is a green lantern.

DC:
Booster Gold
Booster Gold
Booster Gold
Booster Gold
Booster Gold

Marvel:
Incredible Herc
Deadpool

?????
?????

>>14435968
Well....I like the show. But I've heard bad things about the comics too so I kind of steered clear from those.

>>14435988
Yeah. But it's not. It's a Green Lantern.

>>14435964
Well, it could have been their secondary base or something. Come on man, it's not that crazy a question.

>>14435951
Yep. He's awesome.

Op's pic needs the caption:

Mogo is watching you masturbate.

>>14435895
But Amazing Spiderman has been awesome! D:

How would he know that unless he asked?

>>14436022
Yeah, most of it, but it's still inconsistent with the rotating teams. I feel a lot more confident in recommending that stuff

>>14435968

It's alright.

The last issue was pretty good.

>>14436031
Again, sense.

>>14436011
What's your problem? The dude doesn't read comics, how the hell would he know this? Go be a nerd-elitist somewhere else

>>14435978
good thing about namefags, if you don't like them, 4chanaddon lets you ignore them pretty easily.

>>14435870
>The Shield

Hell yeah!

>>14436065
Why would anyone unfamiliar with the concept of a sentient planet assume a planet is a Green Lantern just because it has the symbol on it? Would you assume a planet has Superman's powers if it's wearing the Supershield? Fuck you man.

Honestly, OP.

I'd stay away from JLA until we find out if it's going to become any good or not. It's been pretty bad. There's an editorial directive in place that really has not been proving itself successful.

Green Lantern, Red Robin, The Shield, and any of the Superman related books are solid hits though.

>>14436068
Not really being a nerd-elitest.
That would entail I'm the guy that's been reading comics for years.
I pretty much started getting into comics last year.
It's not rocket science to see Green Lantern symbol = Green Lantern.

>>14436137
Yes. Follows the logic of anyone else wearing the supershield.

>>14436068
>>14436137
Oh yeah OP, I forgot.

/co/ only hates trolls and people who are blatant jackasses to new people.

>>14436151
Go fuck yourself. He's new. You were being a cocksucker. End of discussion.

>The Shield

I've not heard of this until this thread. What is it?

Ok..for Cosmic Marvel side. Its not too hard to follow. As always I would recommend some Guardians of the Galaxy. It was the comic that me back into reading comics.
Its also good for new readers.
Currently they are on the 'Realm of Kings' story arc which has a one shot comic which brings ya up to speed.

Also if your ever confused with a character check out comicvine.com a nice database of characters from comics all around.

>>14435860
>I am gonna read some cosmic, but was thinking like Avengers

Avengers is rebooting in a few months, so either wait for that, or go back to the beginning of the New Avengers volume. It gets into a lot of events, so you'd have to read like four side minis.

>and XMEN for Marvel

X-Men's been sadly pretty weak. But reading all of the current X-Factor run with the Maddox mini before it is a must. Fantastic stuff all around. Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men is also amazing stuff. It's like a giant action movie with heart.

>and JL for DC, but I'm not sure which books/

If you don't mind some old stuff, I'd suggest Justice League International. Comedy plus drama is win.

>>14436171
Pure fucking awesome. Some of the best writing and art that DC is putting out at the moment.

With the cosmic's, it's best to start at the beginning of their current volumes. Both universe are telling broad interconnecting long term stories. Really good stuff.

>>14436171
Military man fighting in a nanotech battle suit. Very good, great writing by Eric Trautmann.

>>14436168
Nope.

>>14436171
a remade old series. he got some pretty nifty costume/armor that provides the super powers and keeps him alive. he is kind of a super soldier doing black OPs for the US government.

>>14436171
>I've not heard of this until this thread. What is it?
Oh it's mini storytime!

>>14436268

Man the look on Grodd's face...

>>14436268
nah no need, let him just download it and stay at giving tips:

read this first:

and this is the shield series:

>>14436182

Oh SHIT I forgot! Read Young Avengers. It's awesome stuff. Pretty darned good at making you familiar with Avengers history while doing some awesome character and plot work. I so wish there was tons more of it than there is. One of my favorite comics ever.

And anytime Magog gets knocked around is a good time.

>>14436290
>Let him download it
IT NEEDS SALES.

>>14436171
Part of the Red Circle characters that DC imported from Archie Comics last year.

The Shield and The Web are the two main books which have had Inferno and The Hangman back-ups, both of which are also Red Circle characters. Apparently two more of those characters are going to get their own ongoings this year.

>>14436332
>Apparently two more of those characters are going to get their own ongoings this year.

!?

>>14436309
No kidding. This book is too good for the low sales it has. I'm doing this mini storytime as a preview.

OP please look into buying this book, it's damned good and is a nice sense of international DCU outside of the usual "America based Superheroics"

It's not your typical hero book, and it's great because of it.

>>14436309
Chill bro, if it's as good as they say I'll add it to my sparse buy list.

>>14436356

>>14436369

>>14436379
Heh something about this boot to the face just makes me smile.

Really looking forward to these books. The current Red Circle ongoings have been great, especially Shield.

uh-oh

Fuck yeah!

Good old fashioned military dressing down.

>>14436332
Yeah, the Fox. I have not read much about him but from what i heard is like the "Coyote" creature with a mix of "Kitsune" (japanese fox mythological being). Sorry for my bad english

if you are up for Guardians of the Galaxy and Nova, you should read the "Annihilation" and "Annihilation - Conquest" events first.
get them here:

>>14436410
And Oeming is drawing The Fox. That's even more of a reason to buy The Shield!
