Another great video and some awesome picks! 📚 Ennis' Punisher MAX is one of my favourite runs of all time! Spider-Man: Blue and Daredevil: Yellow are all-timers that wreck my emotions every time I read them, and Harleen is a gorgeous book too! I haven't checked out Black Cat yet but it's on my to-do list! Some standouts for me that I read for the first time last year are definitely Bendis and Brubaker's Daredevil runs, Thor by Straczynski & Gillen omnibus, The Batman Adventures omnibus and the first two deluxe hardcovers of Something Is Killing the Children. Here's to another year of great reading!
Sounds like we have similar tastes, that’s awesome! I love the Bendis and Brubaker DD runs, so iconic. Sounds like I’ll have to get around to reading Batman Adventures sooner rather than later as well
@SuperFlyComicsGuy Awesome! I think I read The Batman Adventures right after I wrapped up Bendis' Daredevil, so it ended up being a nice, light-hearted change of pace. And since almost every issue was pretty much it's own standalone little story, it really just felt like I was watching more episodes of the Animated Series every time I opened it. It's a great book to just read an issue or so at a time whenever you want a quick, fun, nostalgic little break from whatever else you're reading!
Shout out to yt for not showing me you uploaded recently Anyway faves from last year dd by Miller including the companion and spiderman by zdarsky being up there off the top of my head
I really like how you presented each book. Gave some of the content away just to spark interest in us but with no spoilers. I'm still hunting for that Black Cat DM cover omni.
I’m glad you liked the presentation! And for the Black Cat DM, I’m not sure where you are located, but there are still some places that have it available such as InStockTrades (USA) and Reed Comics (UK)
Some of my favorite reads from last year were Nightwing Compendium 1, Black Panther and World of Wakanda by Coates, and Far Sector (I was surprised how much I loved this one). But my #1 favorite has gotta be Superman Up in the Sky by Tom King. I read it digitally because every version is badly out of print, but thankfully, they announced a deluxe edition coming out this year. If you want the perfect story to show why Superman is a great character, read Up in the Sky. It might be my favorite Superman story ever, or at least in the top 3.
Black Cat was for me definitely biggest surprise of the year, I originally bought it just because it was cheap but I had a blast with it! It wasn't my favorite read of the year but definitely most surprising and fun! But my favourite read of the year would be Something is killing the children books 1 and 2!
Right? It’s often very easy to dismiss spin-off series that focus on a supporting character, but Black Cat by Jed MacKay completely shatters that stereotype, what a fun ride!
w vid bro keep up the work 💪

Hell yeah, that’s exactly the way I would read it too, love BTAS
Moon Knight by Jed Mackay was my favourite that I started reading in 2024 but wrapped up in 2025
It’s in my collection, so that makes me even more excited to get to that book once I can!

@SuperFlyComicsGuy I'm in EU, it's tougher here. Think I'll pick it up from one of the FB groups.
Ah fair enough, I’m not as familiar with EU providers. I know Walt’s Comic Shop is there but they seem to be pretty expensive

Love the variety in your picks! I’ve heard very good things in the past about that Superman story, I might have to pick it up in the future 😄
