So to try to get this section going maybe this old gem will work?
What does every read, comic wise, regularly, floppies, trades whatever? My pull list (is that what people call your reserved lists? I used to say what's in my bag!) is...
ACTION COMICS ANIMAL MAN BATWING CATWOMAN - trying this one out now Nocenti is writing BIG fan of her Daredevil run EARTH 2 GREEN ARROW - just cancelled SWAMP THING FRANKENSTEIN: AGENT OF SHADE - Finishing soon enough RESURRECTION MAN - alas just ended BATMAN WONDER WOMAN ALL-STAR WESTERN BATMAN INC.
ZORRO RETURNS (Dynamite) - Last issue I think is waiting for me in my comic shop. PLANET OF THE APES: CATACLYSM (Boom) - Bloody loved the previous ongoing and this one has begun almost as well. POPEYE (IDW) - just cancelled MUD MAN (Image) SHADOW (Dynamite) - cancelling after the Ennis issues, would have trade waited if I'd known he was only doing the first 6 issues L'IL DEPRESSED BOY (Image) FATALE (Image) CREATOR OWNED COMICS (Image) THE MASSIVE (Dark Horse) IT GIRL AND THE ATOMICS (Image) NOWHERE MEN (Image) - starting November, bloody love the concept so it'll get a three issue run out JUDGE DREDD (IDW) - Again starting November, fingers crossed hey... ROCKETEER - CARGO OF DOOM (Boom)
I also get Daredevil trades, I'm working my way through the Fantagraphics Popeye collections (only last two to pick up), get all the Battle collections, The Alex Raymond Flash Gordon books and finally will almost certainly be getting all the Pogo stuff.
So that's my bag what you go in your?

My stuff : Prog and Meg obviously. The Batman titles that are about Batman. Did try Batwing for a while but lost interest. Catwoman Green Lantern... but none of the ancilliary titles Bendis Avengers comics (big soap opera but I dont care, I love 'em) Before Watchmen - not a dud in the bunch IMHO Spider-Man - Decided to give it a try a few months back. Fun comics.
Trades - No ongoing collections. I just grab what I like the look of.

2000AD and the Meg The Walking Dead in trades (but thinking of jumping off there) and, err... that's it
Pick up some 2000AD trades as and when

I've let my trade buying go recently, as I've been concentrating on getting up to speed with 2000AD trades. That said, I did just get the first 2 Elephantmen volumes from the Book Depository, and I've got both Grandville gn's which I'm itching to read.
My ongoing trades are Walking Dead, Fables (I'm years behind!!), House of Mystery (ditto)....I'm also a bit of a Mike Carey fan, so The Unwritten is a favourite, and so are his Felix Castor novels that The Whittle made me read - I've just finished the third one and I think I have another three to go. Bloody brilliant.
I've got approx 3 big shelves of unread (non-2000AD) tpb's/gn's :/ Mainly Image or Vertigo, but some DC /Marvel too - this is another reason why I haven't let myself buy too many trades recently.

If its any consolation my to read pile is actually a Google Docs spreadsheet and kinda embarrassingly approximately 2 1/2 years 'long'. Though in my defense half of that is re-read stuff I'd never get to otherwise!

Aside from all the manga im reading I just started reading The Unwritten and to be honest have been blown away at how it sucks you in.
If nothing else read issue 12 its as a standalone comic, Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.

Aside from the Prog and Meg I've given up on floppies all together. Just trade waiting and picking up whatever appeals to me regardless of whether Marvel, DC/Vertigo, Image etc. Usually go for story-lines of finite series now.
Image does seem to the place for the most innovation (aside from the Prog and Meg of course) at the moment.
By the way has anyone on here ever read anything from Abbaddon Books? Some of their titles seem really good.
