Hey /co/
My Godson's about to move away, and I've been building a library of movies and tv shows to give to him since I'll no longer have the chance to share directly with him. However, I've realised my comics collection is pitiful, and was hoping for help building a semi-decent library for him to read. Preferably limited runs or individual trades, I've tried not to dump him with massive runs that would be daunting to tackle.
What I have (or am getting) so far
>DC
Dark Knight Returns
Red Sun
Birthright
American Alien
Secret Identity
What's so Funny...?
Long Halloween
Killing Joke
Moore's Swamp Thing

If you are going to include "American Alien" of all things...
Than pick up Superman: For All Seasons while you are at it
It does the "Clark is human" in a very Superman way. Jeph Loeb knows a lot more about the "feel" if Clark than Max ever did
The Eternaut
The Incal

Busiek's run of Thunderbolts and Avengers.
