A Comic Book Reading Order Guide For Beginners & Fans
Dave founded Comic Book Herald in 2011 and has written a lot about comics since that time. See for yourself below!
2019 feels like the first year in the last four when Marvel wasn’t still mired in a post-Secret Wars (2015) malaise. While it’s far from a slam dunk, 2018’s “Fresh Start” helped Marvel feel less aimless and more consistent. Plus, the 2019 event initiatives are genuinely exciting, whether it’s War of the Realms, Jonathan Hickmen’s X-Men, or Absolute Carnage.

Welcome to Comic Book Herald’s countdown of the best comic books of the decade! Dave and John have been unveiling the best 70 books of the 2010’s, all building up to this moment where we reveal our top 10!
As you’d expect, many of these will come from Comic Book Herald’s 500 best comics of all time, of course editing for those that have been released in the past 10 years. The list will inevitably leave out plenty of very exciting comics, so let us know what would make it onto your list in the comments! [Read more…] about Best Comics of the 2010’s: 10 – 1!
November 27 2019 – the day before Thanksgiving – was the first new comic book day in approximately 4 months with at least three new X-Men comics released on the same day.
Appropriately, my varying reactions to the releases are a healthy reminder that more is not always better, and that one of House of X and Dawn of X’s greatest strengths has been a healthy sense of curation (Marvel as a whole is otherwise comically overproducing books these days). Big picture, New Mutants is a book I expected to enjoy, and lo and behold, nothing has changed, whereas X-Force had a make-or-break second issue actually sell me on many of the comic’s bolder first issue choices.
And then there’s Fallen Angels #2, which I’m increasingly convinced is the only absolute dud of the Dawn of X.
