The Death of Superman (Caped Crusader Classics)The Death of Superman (Caped Crusader Classics)
Buy used from: £4.00
Something needed to be done to shake up the comic world a bit & this certainly did it. Whire knuckle, visual brilliance.
Superman: the Return of Superman (Superman (DC Comics))Superman: the Return of Superman (Superman (DC Comics)) by DC Comics
Buy new: £9.85 / Used from: £8.85
The middle bit (world without a superman) was a bit weak (shame) but this one pushes all the right buttons. Comic glory!
Doom Patrol: Crawling from the WreckageDoom Patrol: Crawling from the Wreckage by Grant Morrison

Withdraw completely from reality & let Grant Morrison take you to a place where comics rarely go... total insanity!
Superman: Red SonSuperman: Red Son by Mark Millar

Comics can go to places that normally just wouldn't work, or should be touched... this makes that statement perfectly.
Swamp Thing: Dark Genesis (DC Comics Vertigo)Swamp Thing: Dark Genesis (DC Comics Vertigo) by Len Wein
Buy new: £9.82 / Used from: £6.90
Its an unsung comic is Swamp Thing. Bit naff, but it ticks all the right boxes & its heavy enough to challenge you a bit. I'm a fanboy.
Batman: Manbat (Batman (DC Comics Paperback))Batman: Manbat (Batman (DC Comics Paperback)) by Jamie Delano
Buy used from: £15.95
Every page deserves to be framed & hung in a gallery. Visually breathtaking. 'Comic Art'
Spider-Man: TormentSpider-Man: Torment by Todd McFarlane
Buy used from: £2.50
Relentless & stunning. The reinvention of the Lizard we all begged for a great great read. You really get carried away with it.
Batman: Killing JokeBatman: Killing Joke by Alan Moore
Buy used from: £5.85
Boundary pushing brilliance. Why have a character like the Joker if you're going to make him too campy? Make it satanic & push it beyond rationale... thats done here... masterful.
Batman: Death in the FamilyBatman: Death in the Family by Jim Starlin
Buy used from: £6.99
Yay! They killed him off. Rubbish character... boo... they kept bringing him back. The first graphic novel I ever bought. Good stuff all round.
