Have you tried Alien versus predator comics?
They have a whole collection of Omnibus books for Aliens, Predator, and Aliens vs. Predator. I had them all as a kid and then lost them to a flood, so these books are now part of my prized possessions.

This largely means sitting through boring lectures and a lot of free time in the evenings, so I'm looking reading material to entertain myself with. Preferably in the form of comic books.

So, what are your suggestions?
A series that I really enjoyed is the Grendel books. They really have a unique way of telling a story, and the art style is similar to Sin City in a lot of the series. Devil by the Deed, God and the Devil, and the Batman/Grendel crossover are all great things to pick up.

As far as actual novels go, I just read The Forever War by Joe Haldeman. Upon finishing it, I immediately read it again. It's easily one of the best science-fiction novels ever written and a quick read if you're into sci-fi.

I also started Ringworld by Larry Niven (basically the book that Halo stole all its interesting ideas from) and I was hooked by the first few pages.

I have a comic, but it's in black and white, and has more text than pictures, and the pictures are only on the front cover.

So if you are interested in this comic is it the Crossroads Trilogy by Nick O'donohoe. Its premise is essentially veterinary medicine applied to mythological creatures.

If that hooks ya in the books are (in order): The Magic and the Healing, Under the Healing Sign, and The Healing of Crossroads.

On Marvels website they have a virtual comic service. It's not a bad price ($5-10 a month depending on what service you buy) and there's over 6000 comics. The only downside is that several of the series has multiple missing issues. But they do upload 20 comics a week.

Here's a link if you're interested.

As for a specific series, I really liked Punisher War Journal
