>mockingbird that high I knew it and the worst thing is that i liked the first issues
William Garcia
I haven't a clue how they seriously considered placing it and "Faith" over "Omega Men". At least they placed "The Flintstones" higher up.
I shudder to think what they're going to put in the top ten. My money is on a straight run of Marvel in the Top Three.
Cameron Torres
Nah, Saga will be in top 3, I guarantee it.
Grayson Jackson
At least it's not capeshit
Blake Perez
It's nice to see King's batman get a high place on the list. Though I wouldn't like it to be THAT high.
As usual. Last year's winner was Ms Marvel, right?
John Martinez
>I haven't a clue how they seriously considered placing it Because there was a big story about it and everyone acted like losing the comic was some crime
Kevin Carter
Wouldn't be surprised.
Last year's Top Ten: >Saga >Ms. Marvel >March: Book Two >Star Wars >Unbeatable Squirrel Girl >Paper Girls >Step Aside, Pops >The Omega Men >Bitch Planet >The Fade Out
Camden Edwards
Champions going to be in top 10 right? Fuck
Carson Miller
At this point it might as well be. What other comics are probably going to end up in the Top Ten as well?
Blake Brooks
I just looked it up, and Saga has been in the Top Three since 2012. >#1 in 2012 >#2 in 2013 (behind Hawkeye) >#2 in 2014 (behind Ms. Marvel) >#1 in 2015
Tyler Stewart
>024. Spider-Woman (Dennis Hopeless/Various) I wasn't aware that anyone whatsoever liked this.02

That surprised me too. Sometimes lists like these make me wonder if people are just stretching for titles to add.

Noah Hill
>Jem and the Holograms is going to be a top 10 comic
Eli Mitchell
>Mockingbird #18 Are you fucking kidding me? I even liked the book well enough (other than 3 and 8) and I don't think it deserves to rate at all let alone in the top fucking 20 of the year.
Owen Sullivan
Weird, I think issue 3 was the best of the lot. Those mystery box issues (1 and 5) were terrible, and probably the worst way to start a comic I ever saw. But what on earth is wrong with the last issue?
Lincoln King

Gavin Murphy

I'm sure of it.
Alexander Nguyen
>Faith at 20 >Omega Men at 21 Are they even trying?
Liam Wilson
A retcon that drastically alters the character's history and morality for no other reason than to appeal to the writer's ideology. Barring that, it was below mediocre at best.
Evan Hughes
>Hellcat over Tomasi's superman, Morrison's Wonder Woman, Spencer's Cap, etc. >Hellcat over anything
WHY???
Ian Wilson
>Dark Knight a True Batman Story I hate all the acclaim this comic has gotten honestly. It isn't a bad comic but it is nowhere near one of the best of the year.
Luke Gutierrez
providence?
Daniel Clark
Too bad; it's probably in the Top Ten.
Oliver Torres
Descender is in no way bad. The art alone is amazing. I agree that it's not nearly as goodf as Omega Men but still. But OM below the likes of Thor, Black Panther, Vision, Batman, Faith, Legends of Wonder Woman, Saga or especially Mockingbirld and Squirrel girl is absolutely moronic.
Xavier Moore
And it'll probably be the best out of the top ten too.
10. Bitch Planet 9. Monstress 8. DC Universe: Rebirth 7. Dark Night: A True Batman Story 6. Unbeatable Squirrel Girl

Jordan Moore
>The vision
I ain't even mad, I loved it.
There were some big names missing, though. Providence, Panther, Ultimates (maybe not in the top 10 but it was such a good read, specially if you consider that much less interesting books got such high positions).
>Squirrel girls This has to stop
>No champions on the list
And all is good with the world
Lucas Turner
And I was right, Dark Knight is the best one in the op 10...
Connor Baker
>6. Unbeatable Squirrel Girl
I truly can not understand how people think this is even on the same level as other books that high up.
Chase Rodriguez
It ranked #5 in 2015: >It’s a series so full of humor, the jokes spill out of the panels and onto the bottom of every page. It’s a big ol’ high five to just how fun and funny superhero comics can be. >Every issue of this series has been a sheer delight, filled with good-natured laughs, meta-humor, potshots at Marvel’s own dour disposition, friendship, and fuzzy tails. >It takes quite a bit of skill to execute the mixture of character development and next level wackadooness present in every issue.
And from 2016: >“Squirrel Girl” remains both extremely funny, and an excellent superhero comic. Like every major superhero, Squirrel Girl’s main power is inspiration. >No comic being published today is as gleefully silly or subversively smart as “The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl.” >Consistently the funniest of the Marvel all-ages titles.
So the gist of it is that it's funny.
Aiden Adams
>024. Spider-Woman (Dennis Hopeless/Various) >020. Faith (Jody Houser/Various) >018. Mockingbird (Chelsea Cain/Kate Niemczyk, Ibrahim Moustafa) Yeah, no. These books are not top 25-tier. They shouldn't even be on this.
Hunter Lee
>088. Hellboy in Hell
Fuck this. HiH is Mignola at the top of his game, the fact that a master at work is this low while crap that'll be forgotten by the summer like Mockingbird is so high is criminal.
Jayden Howard
But...it's not. I read the title up to it's, like, sixth issue since it began on January 2015. I didn't laugh. The art is atrocious. It's not the worst thing in the world but the amount of praise that it has gotten is just baffling.
Ryan Clark
>The Art of Charlie Chan Hock Chye (Sonny Liew) nice
Levi Robinson
>WicDiv >Bitch Planet How could anyone still be reading these comics in 2016 without realizing they're utter dogshit?
Christian Stewart
This top ten in painfully mediocre
Ethan Smith
reminder that Omega Men was #8 on CBR's list last year for 2015. So it made their list twice despite being a 12 issue series, which is pretty good.
Jaxson Scott
>bitch planet literally had 4 issues this year, which they even say in the editorial comments. why? >monstress it didn't have many issues either, but the first issue was oversized and its first arc was largely good. >Rebith not surprised. even if you didn't like it for whatever reason, it's still a hugely important event that has made DC books into top sellers within a few months. >Dark Knight True Story didn't read it yet, but it's paul dini so im sure it deserves its spot. >unbeatable squirrel girl ah yes, here is the pandering slot they always give to at least one bad book. >Saga has not nearly been as good as it used to be. >Wicked + Divine honestly I would agree if not for the fact that Commercial Suicide came out this year. That arc was really not well done due to all the rotating artists, some of them just not being very good. >Paper Girls Only redeeming quality is the art, because the story makes even less sense than Saga. >March This is fair. It's actually pretty good if you're not a Sup Forums moron who gets triggered by any mention of black people having civil rights. >Vision Accurate.
Levi Mitchell
>Mockingbird higher than Omega Men
so this list is trash then
Sebastian Wilson

Hellboy in Hell/B.P.R.D./Abe Sapien Astro City Invincible Invisible Republic Revival Kaijumax Stray Bullets Birthright The Woods The Sixth Gun Honorable Mention: Robyn Hood
Joshua Evans
Posted this a few times before but it won't be relevant for long at this point, some honorable mentions would be Blammo #9, Vision, Black Hammer and Ghosts. Didn't read a lot of marvel or DC this year, burned myself out on long running comics last year when I read a ton of bronze age stuff, although even then not a lot interested me from the big two outside of YA and Dr Fate when I found out McCarthy did art for it but I have yet to read those.
Jose James
sell me on Robyn Hood she's a cute
Puke Force is stupid what about Mooncop

10. Tetris 9. Doom Patrol 8. The Vision 7. Dark Night: A True Batman Story 6. Hellboy in Hell 5. Six Pack and Dog Welder 4. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure 3. Sheriff of Babylon 2. The Flintstones 1. The Omega Men
Per my pleb opinion.
Benjamin Long
Without making my explanation too confusing, she's basically a Rule 63 Robin Hood who is set up as a private investigator in modern day New York. Sometimes she has to go into the world of Robin Hood to fight bad guys there, since she is seen as a hero to the citizens there just like Robin Hood was in the book. The art in the first arc really sucks but as she got more popular Zenescope started giving her better artists.
It is not really a great comic but it is fun if you like antiheroines and justice. The justice she doles out is really cathartic and feels awesome and empowering to read, it captures that feel of her being a champion of the little guy just like Robin Hood.
Gabriel Stewart
Thing I have read: >The Vision >Saga >DC Universe: Rebirth >Omega Men
Thing I have no idea what they are: >March: Book Three >Paper Girls >The Wicked + The Divine >Monstress >Bitch Planet >Patience >Descender, Faith, The FIx, etc etc
Things I would not touch even with a shited stick >The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl >Black Panther >Mockingbird >Spider-Woman
Jordan Perez
>Faith I actually like this comic a lot, because it is a faithful rendition of one of my favorite Valiant characters growing up. She was the heart and soul of Harbinger, her pure, nerdy love of her powers and what she was doing was so infectious and fun, and the current writer just nails it perfectly.
But I feel like the reasons it made the list instead of any other Valiant book are the same reasons Sup Forums hates it: because it is lumped in as an 'important' comic that tackles 'social issues'. That isn't really Faith at all though.
Ethan Carter
>Squirrel Girl >better than Dark Night and Rebirth
What an absolute joke, and honestly insulting. Dark Night should be #2 behind Vision.
Jack Jenkins
Valiant fucking is the worst
Joseph Green
Really happy to see Nod Away on this list. Never saw anyone else post it in the shelf/buyfag threads. But the omission of Sir Alfred #3 by Tim Hensley, Crickets #5, Sick by Gabby Schulz and Time Clock by Leslie Stein make this list a genre/capestuff-weighted bust when so many good alt/"artcomics" came out last year. Mind you it's CBR so whaddya expect. Patience is the second worst thing Clowes has fucking done, I bet all the 16 year olds getting into "unorthodox" comics are peeing their panties over it. Buy the Complete Eightball when your first pube comes in, or something, ya wankers
