I want to ignore things like Deadpool or Harley Quinn, my favorite hero since I was young was Spider-Man, is The Amazing Spider-Man 2015-to now good? What are some good DC comics too? I like to think both ways.

>is The Amazing Spider-Man 2015-to now good

Nope. There's definitely worse runs out there, but the current one's really mediocre at best.
>>
Well you're in a bad situation ain't ya fucko
The only good recent Spider-Man book is Spider-Man and Deadpool

Hate to be a jerk, but you kind of come off like a jerk anyway
>Hurr I want to avoid Deadpool cause I heard it's bad
>Btw I don't read comics

Exactly the problem with half the board desu senpai

start by ignoring all capeshit completely

>>91626450

he never said deadpool was bad, he just said he wanted to avoid it. He probably just isnt interested in deadpool's shenanigans which is a valid reason. OP asked a reasonable question in an inoffensive way. Dont get your feelings hurt when someone doesnt like what you like

Going to the library and just getting a better feel for what you want, if you want some recs I would go for Saga, Chew, Moon Knight, and the recent Hawkeye run was p good.
>>
Can you just read Amazing Spider-man 1 to 700 and not have to read anything else, or do things that happen outside of the main run actively change up a lot of the content to the point where you don't know what Spidey is doing?
>>
>>91626034
Just download and try some books, the rest comes naturally.

Spider-Man: The Gauntlet and Grim Hunt are modern-ish Spider books that are pretty good. If you like that kind of style, that "run" starts with the book Brand New Day.

If you're looking for a more 90s flair, then Spider-Man: The Next Chapter is a place to start as well.

If you want DC recommendations that are more traditionally comic booky, the current runs on Aquaman and Superman are really quite good.

If you're okay with books that are a little more experimental, you could check out any of the books in the Young Animal line. They've all been pretty good so far.

You CAN, but that's a lot of comics. It's much easier to pick a creative team or decade to start from and go from there.

Personal favorites from the top of my head:

- Scarlet Spider (2012) by Chris Yost - just jump right into it. No previous knowledge required.

It's basically the adventures, both dark and hilarious, of a man called Kaine Parker - a grim 90's Spider-man villain - as he tries to get a second chance at life by becoming Houston's resident superhero (while hating the idea and every second of it)...

... and reluctantly making friends who balance his curmudgeon, saving Mexican girls from human traffickers and end up fighting talking Mexican werewolf drug dealers because of it, etc.

It's a fun series.


- Remender's Venom

- Spurrier's Legion

- East of West

- Green Lanters (Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz),

- Millar's Old Man Logan

- Transmetropolitan

- Superior Foes of Spider-man (comedy of incompetent minor Spider-man villains).

- King's Vision

- Metabarons
