jesus you people really do exist.

I read the first ~20 issues as they were coming out. It's great. If Punisher at all deserves to be on the list, the Ennis Max material is what should represent it. I don't disagree.

But if you're gonna get on to someone for a SEEMINGLY pleb-tier choice, and then use IT GOT MOVIE as a reason, maybe don't also suggest one of the handful of Marvel properties THAT ALSO HAS A FUCKING MOVIE

Seth Fisher, what a singular m/s talent, RIP. But, I couldn't approve on this basis alone, personally.
My choice off the top of my head for being one of the first autobio comics, the first comic (or any other publication, to my knowledge) to deal with OCD (before it existed as a medical diagnosis!) and also because it is definitely "Art" with a capital "A"--pure, untrammelled, visually refined self-expression.

Enemy Ace isn't on that level and Sandman is the most overrated comic ever.

DeCarlo/Doyle Archie should be on there. Rosa's Duck comics should as well. I'd also recommend Hitman. Planetary probably deserves consideration. As does Busiek's Conan.

Pax isn't bad but it's overrated due to the structure. The story itself wasn't great but it was fun to piece it together.

>>78137690
I've read more bacchus then I have Alec, but yeah I dig it more. Campbell's best work artistically IMO

>>78138248
Okay, I'll give it a go then, Anon. Read about half The Complete Alex in bits and bobs over the years then got a copy outta the library and read the whole thing. Very good, varied art. I DID like his art in From Hell A LOT for some reason....I saw a great Bacchus double-page splash advertisement in the back of an old Cerebus which was fucking brilliant.....I just kind of take issue with the idea that a sketchy or "uncontrolled"-looking line is somehow more "expressive" than a measured, controlled one (not that Campbell has EVER made that claim to my knowledge but a fair few of his admirers and "comics lit. 101" types have done). But, yeah, great, great cartoonist, undoubtedly, even though he's not my usual cup of tea.

Keep posting indiefags, I'm discovering some interesting looking comics with this thread.

You can't put everything in. I tried to stick to shut that heavily influenced other creators and revolutized comic book medium in some small way. Something that can teach other how to do comics properly

Enemy Ace might not be as flashy as the other books or even the better known of Kubert's works like Sgt Rock but Ace was a game changer. Take a look at the vertical paneling and layouts used to convey dogfight in the air. Get use of space and they're beautiful to look at. If you think about it he was an antihero during the counterculture movement and he was based on a German war hero. Pretty ballsy stuff and even if the creators didn't intend for the comic to come of as anti war, the readers did pick up these themes as the creators were vets. Kurtzman had some great war stories too.

Plantery was thought about I swear. I just didn't pull the trigger, love the lore but it terms of actual craft Ellis' Athuority was a game changer, made the whole industry notice the wide panel motif and it's stuck everyone is using it still to this day.

I like Busiek's Conan and it be overall better than Roy's Conan the Barbarian ongoing but that can't beat Savage Sword of Conan.

Kungpow.jpeg
>I implore to reconsidure
Reread the Defenders. I like Man-Thing better but Defenders is just as good as any cape comic and still retaining that Gerber touch

I agree with everything else. I tended to side with the more influential run that's why Rosa didn't make it as Bark's Duck influenced everyone see Raiders of the Lost Arc.

There are more than three publishers, farn.

If Sandman is your favorite then you should read Cerebus the Aardvark. While working on Sandman, Neil Gaiman said that Dave Sim is a better creator than Neil Gaiman.

The Adventures of Luther Arkwright

>>78140094
Pretty sure he was referring with the medium because of all the different ways Morrison messes with the comic itself, like the paneling and being able to read it forward or backwards and what not.

>>78140718
This is where I was coming from, maybe it is just personal taste. Kingdom Come's the only one on the list I wouldn't really mind being there, but the others are actually just run-of-the-mill genre stuff or the Unfunnies. At least Kingdom Come tries to be something better even if I think it failed.

This is an anonymous imageboard. If you tripfag or use a name you should at least have the decency to make it something untraceable. Someone might just DOX you out of spite, you're not building a following for your comics, just stop using this name on 4chan.

>Why our those books "only technically" AS?

"Pekar also wrote two graphic novels which are not officially labeled American Splendor but which should arguably be considered part of it: Our Cancer Year (Four Walls Eight Windows, 1994), co-written with Pekar's wife Joyce Brabner and illustrated by Frank Stack, covering the year when Pekar was diagnosed with cancer; and The Quitter (DC Comics, 2005), illustrated by Dean Haspiel, which deals with Pekar's youth."

You read "The Red Grampus"? If you get a chance do so, I almost certainly guarantee you'll like it if you dig Black Lung (it's in Walt Holcombe's Fanta collection, "Things Just Get Away From You" which any fan of the medium should buy). I promise. That's if you haven't already read it, Anon! You seriously willing to crack dat spine to storytime?! I salute you, Anon.

Who owns physical copies of comics in the TCJ list, and how many of the comics do you own, Anon's?! Not saying the TCJ list is some sort of arbitrator of comics taste but...it is.

>>78148181
Well after a look through the list I think I agree with about a quarter of the list (Watchmen, Foster's Prince Valiant, Peanuts, Pogo, Ditko's Spider-Man era, McCay's Little Nemo, Kurtzman's MAD, the Hernandez stuff, Kirby, Eisner, Barks, Cole, and others) And most of the list I can't say for certain since I haven't read them or read enough of them.

But then there's some like EC's horror stories which, while the art was great, and has a historical significance, the stories could get really repetitive-feeling.

Hooded Utilitarian also did a top 100 list of their own, or rather a top 115:

http://www.hoodedutilitarian.com/2011/08/the-top-115/

Usually I don't really care for some of the people who write on that site but the list was one of the best things on there.

>>78148374

you shouldn't like anyone who makes articles on that site. The idiots on TCJ don't even like them

I've never heard of Hooded Utilitarian before. What's so bad about them?

>>78148447
go look for yourself make sure to read the comments section

>>78148181
That list is actually not all that far from the stuff /co/ generally likes. There's even some stuff from the Big 2 like the Kirby/Lee FF run.

I was surprised how much Moore dominates the list. I wonder if TCJ still feels that way.

>>78148421
>you shouldn't like anyone who makes articles on that site.

I think there's like two or three people whose articles are okay, or at least tolerable.

>The idiots on TCJ don't even like them

To be fair, some of them did start out writing at TCJ in the first place. Noah Berlatsky and Ng Suat Tong used to write for TCJ before writing for HU, I think. And HU did used to be part of TCJ for a year or two before some kind of split happened and Gary Groth got into an online argument with Berlatsky at one point.

Depends, cause I sure as hell don't own all the volumes of the complete Pogo or Peanuts or EC War Stories but I have a few volumes of each and the FB Corpse on the Imjin book.

Of the list I own about 20 from the list in physical, and read 40 from the list.

Yeah but for really intelligent analysis not just HEY GUISE DIS COMIK IZ GRET The Hooded Utilitarian is hard to beat. Some of the writers...regular readers know how Noah Berlatsky, for instance, can be, Mr:" Maus is rubbish and overrated and so is Jimmy Corrigan" seems to be disliked by A LOT of folks but is capable of writing good articles...

I OWN exactly 33 of the comics on the list, wait no 35 but have read roughly half.

>>78148600
I shall venture into the attic today and find it for you, Anon. What do you want scanning, the whole thing?! Re-reading the list I'm surprised by the amount of crap on there (not a lot, but still...)...Doonesbury would NOT be on there today, and Pogo at #3....it's good but not THAT great. And Pat Oliphant?! Hah, the left-leaning TCJ would have egg all over their faces were he included today.....

you're fundamentally arguing that "funnybooks" aren't worth taking seriously for critical discourse and, by implication, cannot be "Art".
Don't get me wrong, people who take ANYTHING too seriously and are SOOO po-faced are a bit full of themselves...but the cartoonist James Romberger, for one, has submitted great articles on, off the top of my head, Harkham's newest Crickets story arc, Toth and something about naturalism vs. "cartoonily" drawn comics? And he's no fucking idiot.

>>78149383
All thier critical discourse is just SJW nonsense
