I'm really glad there's comic companies like Image and Dark Horse, where there isn't just one universe, or one set of characters. These types of companies have way more freedom of what to write.

This is why i like image over dc and marvel. Just like manga there's something for everyone not just a selective group. The creators having (some?) control over their stuff is a plus.
@@adityawankhede7260 Well,not everithing,like DC Black label has good stuff,i only read from it Wonder Woman:Dead Earth and Batman:White knight,but that is good shit,imo. I haven't read those,but Hawkeye and Immortak Hulk are also good,or it is what i've heard.
Invincible is beyond incredible. I’m a big comic book reader and after getting into invincible, I cannot imagine any other super hero comic topping it.
Green lantern by geoff johns and the green lantern corps by tomasi at the same time is a great series the one fills in the gaps for the other its huge man cosmic goodness the most amazing colors and pages i never thought much of GL mostly read spawn and venom but wow this is a nice contrast to the dark and gritty of those books
@@LoreLord- dude I was just like you never thought I like GL until I picked up Blackest Night by Geoff Johns back in 2013 the art and the pages were both dark gritty and colourful at the same time it’s one of my favourite comics
My hero academia and one punch man are both vastly superior, but I guess comparing manga to American comics is like comparing big league baseball to single A.
Great list, except for Nailbiter. Such a gimmicky series. The writer abuses the resource of people getting interrupted when they are about to explain the mystery behind the town. It becomes ridiculous. And the art has some extremely low points in the second book. Extremely blocky figures and non-existent backgrounds. And the, at the end, the truth behind the big mystery is way too outlandish for the grounded setting. Aside from that, cool list and I love the way you make these lists, showing the books as well as interior artwork.
I was looking for new titles to read I got nailbiter free on amazon. (Like to try things before getting the full run) I gotta say within the first couple of pages I was rolling my eyes and I had to put it down. Like you said..... Gimmicky. I know a lot of people love this series but Im on board with you I just couldnt do it.
I'm just starting the video. But I gotta say, Gideon Falls has to be at least in Honorable mentions. *To Those reading this comment, YOU NEED TO READ GIDEON FALLS!!!!
I'm actually kind of suprised Descender and Ascender didnt make the list. Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen both kill it in that series. Ditto Deadly Class since Rick Remender has created such an interesting (and ongoing) series. Also, Low is one of my favorite Rick Remender works from image too.
Pretty new to comics and Image is quickly becoming my favorite. Saga and Kill or be killed are amazing! Reading wytches right now which is also fantastic
1. Spawn (all tie ins & spinoffs included) 2. Killadelphia 3. I hate Fairyland 4. Witchblade 5. The Darkness 6. The Tenth I know it's short (14 issues with several minis) but still a good read. 7. Savage Dragon 8. Youngblood 9. Darkchylde (sad it's so short lived) 10. Invincible
Invincible is a weird one for me. I'm about 60 issues in and I like it a lot, and will finish it, but... it's poorly written. Like, the dialogue is bad. Plainly bad. Inarguably bad. If you took those scripts into a writing workshop everyone would feel bad for you. It honestly reads, at times, like it's written by a 14-year-old boy. A creative 14-year-old boy, trying like hell to write a great story, but a 14-year-old nonetheless. It took me a while to get over that and just enjoy the nonsense for what it is. There's also some "gay" jokes in there that have aged *very* poorly.
The author admitted himself that he could write better than he did in his early twenty. Besides issues 64 is really good, and there’s a lot of good dialogue besides some jokes.
10. Bitter Root 9. Manifest Destiny 8. Stray Dogs 7. Black Monday Murders 6. Gideon Falls 5. Kill or be Killed 4. Invincible 3. Blue In Green 2. Saga 1. Royal City
just discovered your channel, and I can already tell your passion and drive for the medium is next level. Immediate subscriber and didn't even have to think about it!
Don’t be mad at me, but I’m recommending Black Magick. Also, I’m a fan of Gillen’s The Wicked and The Divine. Too many good comics out there, I’ll be checking out what you rec’d that I haven’t fully read.
If you have someone in your life who has expressed interest in reading comics, and they aren't sure where to start? I have a hypothesis: Give them your HC/trade of SAGA V1. Tell them to take 5min, and read _just_ the first 3 pages. Just the first 3. If they don't fall in love with that story and want to see where it goes after those 3 pages? Then I all-but-guarantee that comics, as a medium, is just not for them.
Some amazing runs here, a few I haven't read yet. I'm in the minority with Saga, I didn't care for what I read, maybe I'll give it another shot someday.
black science was amazing! the first arc was amazing but later on the series kinda lost itself and went full superhero with a very annoying main character "GRANT!"
I totally agree...Invincible is and always will be my favourite comic book.It's just too perfect,also the others series are all pretty cool and well made,really good top!!
I was hoping to find some love for monstress. I started it. I like but not love the story so far. The artwork though has to be the most gorgeous artwork i have ever seen... I was hoping to hear that the story keep getting better or sonething lol
Great vid brother. I would have to go with Spawn that's classic a must read in the origins /deluxe editions. I wish they would come out with a colored version of walking dead that I think would turn it up a notch.
Really happy to see “Chew” on this list. I just binged through the whole series and loved every bit of it. I actually laughed out loud so many times while reading this series.
Great video! I don't have any hard covers yet, but my Top 10 trades in no order include 1.Criminal 2.Paper Girls 3.Chew 4.Gideon Falls 5.Kill or Be Killed 6.Saga 7.Nailbiter 8.Bedlam 9.Alex + Ada 10.The Fix
The problem with Image is there's too many good books to choose from. I would of added The Darkness, Postal and Spawn somewhere in there but otherwise it's a great list.
Hope you don't mind me asking what your thoughts on postal was? What makes it a top 10 worthy book in your opinion? I asked someone else because they recomended it, but would love to hear your thoughts on it too. No spoilers, but what was so fascinating about this series? Maybe you could compare it to another graphic novel or tv series so I could get an idea? I've been searching for new recommendations but im no indecisive. Haven't seen Postal on a lot of peoples top 10 list, but im considering buying the HC complete edition. It's completely OOP everywhere, but a LCS near mine has 1 left in stock (lucky!) I've heard mixed reviews, and not sure if I can justify the price if i don't like the story, just want to know why it was the first book you thought of when thinking of your top 5 image series. Thank you!!
Great list, but seeing East of West up there made me think about Hickman’s comics. Now I love his Avengers/New Avengers books. They are in my top 3 comics of all time. But I haven’t found another title of his that I have loved. I’m about half way thru year two of East of West, a third of the way thru his second complete collection trade paperback of the Fantastic Four, and I don’t love either one. I like them. They are good enough (for your average comic author) but nothing seems to meet the standard he set in the Avengers. Hopefully as I finish these books I’ll see the genius I saw in the Avengers. It with that book I saw it right away. I didn’t have to fall in love with it as it was revealed. I loved it from e start. So we’ll see. I have very hi expectations for his X-Men.
East of West is my top graphic novel. I have atm about 50 hardcovers, mostly from Image and Dark Horse. And i'm telling you, East of West blow my mind.
John Lindsay Hickman can be hit or miss for people. You may like his Secret Warriors run, he also did Manhattan Projects at Image. I think if you dig his Avengers, you’ll dig his X-Men!
@@amarikwa888 can you suggest some hopeful comics, going through a tough phase rn, also some shorter series in genres like thriller, mystery, supernatural etc
Yes, Invincible is so good! Lots of great titles on that list, but I would also add Kill or Be Killed (frankly any of Brubaker's work is amazing). Reading East of West right now and really digging it
East of West is the reason I went back reading and collecting comics. Dragotta i meet so many time from Image Expo to San Diego Comic Con Awesome cool guy.
I dusted off my small graphic novel collection this Xmas and expanded that with presents... low, monstress, spawn and black science. Loving the diverse and quality of image comics. Really not a fan of marvel and marvel-esque style comics. The art style isn't really my cup of tea. I realise spawn is close, but I can see a difference between the two.
Black monday murders is really epic for me, anyone read chronicles of hate? I ve read really good reviews, also gideon falls looks very interesting, i really sense most of those image comics will end up being a Netflix series or movies
How doesn’t Sex Criminals make a list of Image Comics best series??? The letter pages alone are better then half the titles I have read since 2010!!! Hilarious stuff.
Great video. East of West all the way. I Read volume 1 of Nailbiter Murder edition and liked it thus far and then got volume two and haven’t opened it yet. Looked everywhere for Nailbiter volume 3 murder edition and can’t find it anywhere. Anyone know if it’s discontinued or where I can find it online?
I agree with your list except for Nailbiter and saga.Nailbiter ruined the ending and saga is just not my type of story.Wanna check out Luther strode. Criminal by brubaker and Prince of Cats is really awesome
I just Subscribed co'z I loved your reviews and you pick My Favorite Image Comics Book East of West and i used to attend the Image Expo Every Year until they moved to Seattle. I lived in California and I used to drive to San Francisco Every year just to Attend Image Expo for a day:) Thanks for the Awesome Reviews of all the trades. Keep it coming :)
They're still new but I've really been enjoying the Department of Truth and Crossover. I hope that both of those will be very successful sales-wise so I can keep enjoying them.
Thanks for the recommendations, I've at least read some of the books (except for Saga, saving that for later) BUT, in my opinion, if I was gonna choose one Rick Reminder book, I'll go with Deadly Class, not that Black Science is bad, I'm just in love with the characters he made in DC.
Top five (in no particular order) because it’s late and I can’t think of ten off the dome: 1) Postal 2) Alex + Ada 3) Revival 4) Scene of the Crime 5) Criminal
Hi! (I know you said no particular order) but postal came to your mind first to write it as 1. No spoilers, but what was so fascinating about this series? Maybe you could compare it to another graphic novel or tv series so I could get an idea? I've been searching for new recommendations but im no indecisive. Haven't seen Postal on a lot of peoples top 10 list, but im considering buying the HC complete edition. It's completely OOP everywhere, but a LCS near mine has 1 left in stock (lucky!)

Thank you!!
Thanks! Needed some recommendations as I'm fairly new to this hobby. I will recommend Judas by Jeff Loveness and Jakub Rebelka though, if you haven't read it. The only 5/5 for me as of yet. Just read Locke and Key, but didn't love it. Next up is The Department of Truth, Saga and Transmetropolitan.
I will add Judas to the list! Ive only read the couple Shazam! Issues Loveness did last year, but I loved them, so I’m looking forward to read a full story by him!
I strongly disagree I just finished Invincible today its pretty good but Walking Dead is one of the greatest stories in all of comic history so you've done an extreme disservice not only to yourself but to every comic fan watching this video
I'm really glad there's comic companies like Image and Dark Horse, where there isn't just one universe, or one set of characters. These types of companies have way more freedom of what to write.
Just in a rabbit hole of comic books right now, they're the best form of media tbh

I lived in California and I used to drive to San Francisco Every year just to Attend Image Expo for a day:) Thanks for the Awesome Reviews of all the trades. Keep it coming :)
Alot of people are now digging more into invincible comic ever since it hit Amazon prime video which is good
Love Image
They're still new but I've really been enjoying the Department of Truth and Crossover. I hope that both of those will be very successful sales-wise so I can keep enjoying them.
No mention of image comic’s Velvet?
The first Image Comics series that I read was Luther Strode and I loved it.
Why haven't we got any kind of deluxe or omnibus for birthright that art is so incredible I've been waiting for that forever
If Chew eats part of a murder victim will he be able to see how they were killed?
Im still pissed off where saga left off at before the hiatus lolol
I feel like Jody Leheup doesn’t get enough credit. Shirtless Bear Fighter and The Weatherman are some of the best comics I’ve ever read
Shirtless Bear Fighter is phenomenal
the walking dead not being on this list is criminal
Thanks for the recommendations, I've at least read some of the books (except for Saga, saving that for later) BUT, in my opinion, if I was gonna choose one Rick Reminder book, I'll go with Deadly Class, not that Black Science is bad, I'm just in love with the characters he made in DC.
Nothing but horror… pass!
Top five (in no particular order) because it’s late and I can’t think of ten off the dome:
1) Postal
2) Alex + Ada
3) Revival
4) Scene of the Crime
5) Criminal
Hi! (I know you said no particular order) but postal came to your mind first to write it as 1.
No spoilers, but what was so fascinating about this series? Maybe you could compare it to another graphic novel or tv series so I could get an idea? I've been searching for new recommendations but im no indecisive. Haven't seen Postal on a lot of peoples top 10 list, but im considering buying the HC complete edition. It's completely OOP everywhere, but a LCS near mine has 1 left in stock (lucky!) I've heard mixed reviews, and not sure if I can justify the price if i don't like the story, just want to know why it was the first book you thought of when thinking of your top 5 image series. Thank you!!
What are your other favorite Remender books?
13:15 in a few months....
Bro what invincible hardcover collection is that??? I can't find it anywhere!
It's custom.
Why is the nailbiter murder edition volume 3 so hard to find? And Harrow County volume 2 library edition?
My thoughts exactly..been trying for those 2 for months now..!!!
Ice Cream Man is so good
4 out of 10 ain’t bad.

Thanks! Needed some recommendations as I'm fairly new to this hobby.
I will recommend Judas by Jeff Loveness and Jakub Rebelka though, if you haven't read it. The only 5/5 for me as of yet.
Just read Locke and Key, but didn't love it. Next up is The Department of Truth, Saga and Transmetropolitan.
I will add Judas to the list! Ive only read the couple Shazam! Issues Loveness did last year, but I loved them, so I’m looking forward to read a full story by him!
Love Judas, for more single volume stories, you should try 'Shadow Doctor' and 'Blue in Green'.

No Walking Dead???
I strongly disagree
I just finished Invincible today its pretty good but Walking Dead is one of the greatest stories in all of comic history so you've done an extreme disservice not only to yourself but to every comic fan watching this video
Thank you for your opinion! I hope people check out the walking dead as well, it’s a great series
