Best Comic Book Run Ever

[ian_house]

Waid's Flash has got alot of love here, good to see.

Grendel and Nexus

What's your pick for the best comic book run ever?

That's tough, but if I absolutely had to pick just one, it would be Simonson's Thor

[Lightning Strike]

Frank Miller's DD was incredible.

[Lightning Strike]

Claremont & Byrne's run on (Uncanny) X-Men.

'NUFF SAID!!!

OH YEAH! See, there's so many good ones that it's hard to pick just one

[Lightning Strike]

Claremont & Byrne's run on (Uncanny) X-Men.

'NUFF SAID!!!

Try re-reading it. Bleghhh.

I've read it many times and still love it. Thanks, X-Men Classics!!!

Same here. I had my Classic X-Men run bound

[Lightning Strike]

I've really enjoyed Peter David's runs on The Incredible Hulk, She-Hulk, Aquaman, Young Justice, The Fallen Angel, Supergirl, Spyboy, Justice, Spider-Man 2099, and X-Factor.

I love all things written by PAD. Good call

[Lightning Strike]

Is it fair to call entire titles like Y and Walking Dead runs?

Anything done by the same creative team no matter how many issues should be considered a run.

[Lightning Strike]

Today I want to say James Robinson's Starman.

Just Thor.

There are some really good runs on there, but some of the ones they list would not even make my top 200 list.
