Supes was a fun ride that I wish hadn't ended, and Cap is simply the best superhero floppy out there. I look forward to Brubaker's upcoming Incognito too! I have The Joker on my Xmas list, so hopefully I'll get it. If not, I'll just by myself a copy. How telling that in this year of the Bat, there's no regular Batman series in your top 10. It's like what you (sort of) said... If it hadn't been for All Star Supes, I wouldn't know that Grant Morrison could still write a good superhero comic. Green Lantern and Detective are worthy entries too, but I worry about what Blackest Night will turn out to be. I was hoping that BN would be contained to GL and GLC, but it's looking more and more like it'll be the latest "Event" at DC, another bloated tale that spans across too many titles. And Detective was great with Dini at the helm, but is he coming back? Just as important, when is Bruce Wayne coming back? Until then, I'm staying away from the Bat books. Hopefully Jason Todd will be dead (again) when that time comes. Total agreement on All Star Supes and Captain America.

Really? I thought The Five Nightmares was great, to say nothing of the team-up with Spider-Man. Matt Fraction's done a GREAT job of writing a post-CW Tony Stark for people that were fans of the character before CW (in our opinions) totally ruined him, while at the same time not retconning away the CW "character development" for people that (for reasons inexplicable to me) like what he's become.
