Back to the video: Yay, Hellboy won! I would have thought anything published by Vertigo (regardless of quality) would be DQ'd because it's the Mature wing of DC Comics. Maybe something from Image, Dark Horse, or even Dynamite could have been a contender?
Robots in Disguise is the greatest thing to ever happen to Transformers. Its like, Politics! On CYBERTRON!
This topic just reminds me how much I miss Ninja High School. I liked the original run or Star Wars Legacy and hope the new cast can hold things. Green Hornet from Dynamite has fallen off. I assume limited series like Scott Pilgrim were discounted. There's so much I'd like to read, but comics are fraking pricey.
The fact that you guys said non Marvel/DC and then let a Vertigo published series in the debate does confuse me. Is it because Fables isn't really part of the DC universe like Sandman or Hellblazer is? In that case I think Watchmen should have been an obvious choice.
Personally never read too much of either, and my pick would have been Dark Horse's Conan series.

I frankly would say the best non-DC or Marvel property is Judge Dredd, with The Goon and... probably Spawn, Chew... and a bunch of IDW's stuff (Godzilla, Transformers) close behind. I am planning to get into Hellboy, but with the exception of the films, it really never made so much as a blip on my radar. I'm sure both it and Fable are great, though, I just... they would not have crossed my mind.
That's Bane. Batman's Bane. Bane is riding a T-rex into battle. Then he and his team, they fight a dragon.
That's DC canon, that.
You underestimation print comics' potential to be properly insane.Thunderous Cacophony said:

Surprisingly, despite the fact that it seems like somebody in Marvel crashes into the Savage Land every week, there's a distinct lack of dinosaur riding.Andy of Comix Inc said:
OT: I'll probably get some hate for this, but the Star Wars expanded universe comics have quite a few times been pretty awesome, especially when Dark Horse makes them.

Invincible is pretty damn awesome too.
Started off as a bit of a DC spoof but it's got a great plot and characters.
Ninjad its amazing well written funny plus it has allen the alien
Boom Studios puts out some pretty good comics, my personal preferences being anything by Claudio Sanchez. You get the great character progression of "the Key of Z," the oddities of following an indestructible dwarf, a cocaine snorting chicken, a skeleton in a dog outfit, and a sack of flour in "Kill Audio," and the great sci-fi plot line of "Amory Wars."Firefilm said:
