What other titles do you like? Based on that maybe I will have an idea if our taste align.

Titles by Gillen or Titles in general?

Haven’t read that, hmmmm do you read postal? If so do you like it? Seems like you have a unique preference.

 

[Mr. Negative]

Finally read Dark Knights Rising: The Wild Hunt

Grant Morrison being Grant fukking Morrison.

No matter what I may say about this "Event" or how it ends, this issue made it worth it.

Nah, but I'm always looking for new stuff to read.

edit:

The townsfolk of Eden, Wyoming wake up to the first official murder the town has seen in 25 years. Their reaction to this isn’t normal, and there’s a reason for that. Eden operates as a haven for fugitive criminals who remain here while new identities, often including facial reconstruction, are created for them. There is zero tolerance for any illegal activity that might draw attention to the town and an “official murder” is the last thing they want. A single, tight-knit family runs Eden with the youngest oddball son Mark Shiffron overseeing the postal branch, the only means of shipping in or out of the city. THE FBI has repeatedly been foiled trying to insert an undercover here; they see Mark as the weak link to exploit. This murder gives them a new opportunity.

I'm about to start reading this RIGHT NOW.


With that said, based on this description, you should try "Scalped", if you haven't @Cacdestroyer

 

[Mr. Negative]

If you're a fan of 100 bullets when it was good, Scalped, Brubaker at his hard boiled best....

you owe it to yourself to read Postal.

 

[Mr. Negative]

@Cacdestroyer

A book I think you'd like (based on my just finishing the 6th issue of Postal), that you're prolly not gonna see mentioned to you by anyone else?

Yeah postal is freaking amazing, the character development is of the charts. I have read scalped, for some reason it got me depressed as hell.

Been reading some old X-Men, this shyt is so sappy but it's soooo good. Storms transformation after becoming the leader has been so engaging.

Cyclops washed the Xmen by himself

Classic stuff. I plan on re-reading Claremont's original run in its entirety someday. I had it all in those old B&W Marvel Essentials collections, but have been slowly buying the volumes digitally when sales come up so I can read them all again in color.
