Finished: _Invincible: Eight is Enough_ and _Tech Jacket_ by Robert Kirkman. More good tales of Invincible (Elizabear liked the first volume, too) and what appears to be the complete run of _Tech Jacket_, the story of an alien cyborg symbiont and its pet teen human. (Not really, but close enough.) Sample monologue: "Stupid Geldarians. I wouldn't even BE looking for my parents if they hadn't needed me to save their entire stupid civilization." I will continue to look for Kirkman.

Yep, I'd echo all of those recommendations; JSA is one of my current top DC books. (The other being Legion of Super-Heroes, which is a longtime favorite of mine that has gotten to be fun again in its latest reboot.)

That's just DC Universe, mind: my *real* favorites are all over at Vertigo, which is probably my single favorite imprint nowadays. No real clunkers, and they publish several of the best books out there, including "Fables", which is probably my favorite book from any of the majors. I'm also quite fond of "Lucifer" and "Books of Magic", but both of those have such elaborate continuities by now that I don't know that I'd throw someone into them. And of course "Y -- The Last Man", which, while not my favorite by style, is a very intriguing exploration of a peculiar scenario...
