If you enjoyed the cartoon: Fuck yes!
If you didn't because you have no soul and refuse to accept Erik Matthews as Batman: Still, fuck yes!
It's being released in chapters currently, which I don't prefer, but it's still a dope comic.

I thought his colors and inkers were pretty decent in the .1 issue, but the color pallet in the first issue preview is too simple and bright.
Jeff Parker should write GLC now, once his books are cancelled at Marvel.

I wonde when Jeff Parker will quit or be replaced
They'll replace him with Orson Scott Card. Batman '66 needs less camp, more homophobia!
He needs a inker + colourist to give his art more 'structure'. It's been so flat. Especialy Nemesis, I could have sworn that was a different artist than mcniven.
I don't have to read the comics that came before the current one?

Repeat.

No. They are good but won't stop you from enjoying it.
Great, will be purchasing. Thanks for the feedback.
Didn't know they made a trade from their digital releases, thanks. I thought it'd be digital exclusive, I guess I can wait for the rest to come to trade as well.

So this Batman Beyond comic began with full-length issues, and that's collected in TPBs as Hush Beyond and Industrial Revolution. After that, the series became chapter-ized online, and combined with other Beyondverse stories in print.
You could very safely start with this trade, collecting all the chapters that make up the 10,000 clowns storyline:10,000 Clowns and then continue with the current chapters.
The two major storylines prior to 10,000 clowns are not necessary to understand and enjoy the current story, but they are great in their own right, and offer more of the Batman Beyond world from the same writer.

Yeah I'm not a fan of Ponsor. I had a hard time getting into Black Spider-Man because of him. I think he might be the Land of coloring.

GYASP!!!!
Hellblazer comics are good, though I haven't kept up with them in years. But there's a reason he was a good enough character to rate having his own movie.
Unfortunately, none of that made it into the actual film. So prepare for a treat with the comic book John Constantine. I'd go online and look for the best appreciated arcs and try to get those issues.

Honestly the trades for the previous two arcs are about $10 each, so he should really pick them up if he can afford it. I'm just glad that this book is getting more love. It really deserves it.
I thought it was incredibly dumb and a disappointing mark in Brubaker's cap saga, thus dividing it between Pre-Reborn and Post.

A big fat NO. Although for 6$, you could have a laugh at the expense of Marvel's godawful Heroes Reborn nonsense.
EDIT: Is this the Liefeld series?

Cyclops X head costume looks sooo bad. They should have put 2 X's on each of his eyes.
EDIT: Also, it looks like the same scene is going to happen in UXM and ANXM but from 2 different points of views.

Hey Comic-GAF! I'm looking for some recommendations in regards to DC stuff.
I grew up mostly on Marvel, so I've managed to miss out on a bunch of classic DC characters. Though I have read and loved a bunch of Batman (really love the Sale/Loeb Batman) and some Superman stuff. I'm just not familiar with many other characters like Green Lantern, Flash, Green Arrow, and whoever else is a big name on the DC side of things (you can tell how out of it I am that I can't really even name who else is more popular).
I would love recommendations of some of the best characters/stories to check out and great jumping in points for somebody like myself who would be new to the recommendations (preferably any series that is easily available for purchase).
I'm more interested in comics along the lines of super hero/villain stuff. I'm not looking for recommendations for Vertigo series since already read a bunch of the best from there.

The funny thing is is that the costume looks pretty cool in UXM but man does it look off in ANXM. And yep, probably why I adore reading ANXM and UXM together, since you get the 'completed' scene.

Read The Longbow Hunters and Green Arrow: Year One. I enjoyed both of those. I was also told Kevin Smith's GA was good. I think it is called Quiver.
Both look awesome. I cannot believe how amazing ANXM turned out. Not liking UXM much, probably because I loathe those characters. I wish Cap would just gut Magik already.
That's sort of the point of the books. Bendis can do a lot of great story telling and whatnot using these books like this, I really want to see if he's willing to take the risk and can keep up the quality.

Speaking of Hell, are there any worthwhile Hellraiser or other Clive Barker comics?

DC has a line of trades called "Greatest Stories Ever Told" for most of the major characters with stories from different eras.
Green Lantern Rebirth by Geoff Johns would be a good place to start for that character.

Batgirl was horrid enough at the beginning of the new 52 that I've ignored it since. I can't imagine anything short of replacing babs would get me to try it again. Batwoman is quality. pretty, fun, surreal stuff, though a couple issues have been duds. Green lantern has been good. Haven't read new guardians or red lanterns in ages but I enjoyed them both before schoolwork devoured my hobbies a while ago. GL Corps wasn't worth reading when the new 52 began and unless the current crossovers shook things up hard i doubt it's changed.

I think Cap has moved more in UA #7 than the entirety of Age of Ultron
