Absolute Batman #15
Joker is absolutely terrifying in this eldritch abomination form. He's also basically in prime Batman shoes, he has money, butler and even jokecave. Batman is cooked again.

A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.
Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.
There is only one rule:*
Comic Books is a no judgement zone.
You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.
If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.
* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(
I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

MODERATORS
Still not reading any current series right now, but I might stop by the comic book store just to see if anything catches my eye. I think I want to start reading something from DC's absolute universe, but I haven't decided what yet.
Maybe also an indie comic.
Absolute Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman are all great series. I enjoy AB the most for its insane action.
However, if you want something experimental, then i can wholeheartedly recommend Absolute Martian Manhunter. It's a trippy journey which delves into human psyche and societal issues coupled with unique art.
For indie stuff, I really like what DSTLRY has been doing. Big, magazine sized books. Creator owned. Lots of good titles to pick from.
