Rating Pull Lists

[Mr. Palmer]

We haven't done one of these in a spell, so I thought it'd be cool to resurrect it.

Post your DC only pull list. The next person will rate your titles and reveal their own list. And make sure to tell the above poster why you rated them as such.

4: Extremely Good
3: Very Good
2: Good
1: Poor
_____

My list:

Action Comics
Superman
Supergirl
Batman
Detective Comics
Robin
Nightwing
Superman/Batman
JLA
Batman and The Outsiders
Trinity
Wonder Woman

[Sniper23]

2. You don't branch out from the main "Trinity" very much, you should try more titles.



My DC Pulls:

Birds of Prey
Huntress: Year One
JSA
Supergirl
Teen Titans
Titans
Wonder Woman
(Not The) Final Crisis
Brave and the Bold

[Spenser for Hire]

2. Pretty good, but you also need to try more characters.

Batman and the Oustiders
DC Special Cyborg
DC Special Raven
Final Crisis
Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds
Final Crisis: Rogue's Revenge
Flash
JLA
JSA
Legion of Superheroes
Nightwing

Teen Titans
Teen Titans: Year One
Tiny Titans
Titans

[MutoMikey]

2 (i see a reoccurring theme here with 2's) - It looks like you like the Titans a bit (me too:biggrin: ) but you should branch out more and check some other characters out. If you like the Titans, you might like Blue Beetle. (yeah, that gets suggested alot around here, heh)

Okay then, here's mine...

Blue Beetle
Batman
Green Lantern
Green Lantern Corps
Flash
Teen Titans
Titans
Trinity
Booster Gold
Green Arrow / Black Canary
Justice Society of America
Justice League of America
Brave and The Bold
Final Crisis

(Robin WAS on here, but you know, the news with Dixon...and I'll jump on Robinson's JL as soon as it starts.)
And I didn't put any of the F.C. mini's on here cause it's too many to list.

[elise]

4. You have a good mix of characters and it looks like you're reading all the titles you need to to keep up with current events in the DCU. You are missing out on some great Superman (All-Star and Action) and great Bat stories (Detective) but because it may just be personal preference, I won't take points off. :wink: You'd probably like the Teen Titans: Year One mini as well since you're a Titans fan.

All Star Superman
Action Comics
Superman
Superman/Batman
Batman
Detective Comics
Nightwing
Robin (off and on)
Booster Gold
Blue Beetle
The Brave and the Bold
Legion of Super-heroes
The Spirit
Justice Society of America
Dreamwar
Teen Titans: Year One

Waiting for FC to be collected but I will be reading most of the minis/one-shots. Also in the process of catching up on Green Lantern and will be checking out Manhunter when the comic shop gets my copy of the latest issue in.

[Skeets]

2

Action Comics
All New Atom
All Star Superman

Teen Titans

[Mr. Palmer]

[QUOTE2. You don't branch out from the main "Trinity" very much, you should try more titles.]/QUOTE]

How very true. I can't deny that the Big 3 are my favorite characters. But I can understand that I should breech out a bit more.

Green Lantern and The Flash do little for me, so I'm not concerned with adding them to my list. Nor do I care for the JSA.

How about adding Teen Titans? Is that a good book?

[jesse_custer]

2.5 - A nice mix of big stars and lesser-known titles. Half point off because Final Crisis blows.

Jonah Hex
House of Mystery
Detective Comics

[MutoMikey]

\You'd probably like the Teen Titans: Year One mini as well since you're a Titans fan.
\.

Oh, I meant to put that on there. I really have been enjoying that mini and I really love Kerchel's(sp?) art. And I've read Detective on and off for awhile, I like Dini's writing. Though I do miss 'Legends of the Dark Knight'.

[HouseSolo]

Jonah Hex
House of Mystery
Detective Comics

Tempted to give 4 just because of Jonah Hex, but only 3 DC books? That's a bit of a bummer. I'll still give you a 2 or a 3.

Awesome. :biggrin: I agree, the art in the Teen Titans mini is great. The writer does a great job as well.

[Jack Zodiac]

3. I would've given you a 4 if you hadn't given Jesse a 2 just for saving his money and only buying the better books instead of filling his list with crap. And having said that, behold my crap-filled list!

Batman
Blue Beetle

The Flash

And if we're counting Vertigo:

100 Bullets
DMZ
Hellblazer
House of Mystery
Jack of Fables
Scalped

[HouseSolo]

Haha, nice. If we're counting Vertigo then I need to add American Splendor and Young Liars.

[jesse_custer]

but only 3 DC books? That's a bit of a bummer.

Perhaps, but not as much when you consider I buy zero from Marvel.

Although I might have to start picking up Thunderbolts because I keep reading and hearing about these great lines of dialogue from Warren Ellis.

[Flash's Lightning]

I'll give Jack a 4, I see nothing I would add.

Oh, jeez, you show me yours and I'll show you mine, huh? Keen. No making fun of how small it is, okay?

Action Comics
Superman
Booster Gold
Blue Beetle
Final Crisis
Trinity
Green Lantern
Green Lantern Corps

I'm not a rich man, but I suppose I could fit...oh, three more titles added to the 11 above (I could Trinity as 4 per month...sometimes it's 5 though).

If we're grading diversity of titles alone, you'd clearly get a 4. However, if we're judging the overall quality of a list, I've got to downgrade you to a 2. There's a lot of quality in there, but also quite a bit of garbage. If you're looking to drop that much cash each week, I'm sure there are a few better non-DC titles to spend it on.

Anyway, here's my list. I know it's going to get thrashed. My tastes are never popular. I'm just curious what the next poster will say:

All-Star Batman & Robin
All-Star Superman
Batman
Detective Comics
Green Arrow & Black Canary
Legion of Superheroes
Nightwing
Simon Dark

[MutoMikey]

(Thinking About Adding)

Green Lantern Corps (what is a good jumping on point?)

GLC is great! You should pick up the 'Recharge' tpb. It would give you a good idea on where most of the main characters come from and how/when they were recruited. After that just jump on in. It's turning into a great team book under Tomasi in my opinion. It's got some great characters in it.:biggrin:

[HouseSolo]

No way, that's a great list aside from All-Star Batman and Robin. I've been thinking about Simon Dark for a while now, but just can't find a place for it.

Well thanks!

Actually, All-Star Batman & Robin is probably my favorite title. I seem to be the only person in the universe who respects it. Here's why (http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?t=218348).

I'd give that about a 3.5 - you're clearly a huge Batman fan which is great but my qualms are with the stuff I see as pointless or superfluous like the Tangent Superman book and all the extra Batman books that I personally don't care for. Oh, and Green Arrow/Black Canary. That said a lot of it is great, and probably reflected in my own list, which is:

All-Star Superman
All-Star Batman and Robin
Batman
Booster Gold

Thanks, yep Batman is my favorite. I haven't started to read Tanget Sups yet... i hope it will turn out good. i like to jump on new series that i don't know anything about sometimes. Tangent Sup is one of the results of this.

Nice list of trades. I think this would be an interesting thread for entire pull lists not just DC.

I think this would be an interesting thread for entire pull lists not just DC.

So be it!

Even if you've already posted a pull-list, feel free to do so, again, with all the books that you buy each month. I have to agree that it would be fun to see what everyone collects. :smile:

I just snipped out the Marvel stuff for the sake of this being a DC pull list thread.

Your list is looking really good in terms of quality titles and it's well rounded as far as all the DC characters go. Although Titans sucks nowadays IMO, and Trinity is a redundant title but otherwise solid stuff. I see that you're picking up Detective and All Star Batman and Robin, decided to go with those over Morrison's Batman I take it?

Your pull list rating: A-

Here's mine:

Action Comics
All Star Superman
Superman
Detective Comics
Batman
Green Lantern
Green Lantern Corps
Legion of Superheroes
Infinity Inc (may get dropped)
Final Crisis
Booster Gold
Blue Beetle
Shadowpact
Justice League of America

3.5. I don't read most of the books you do, but I know them by reputation/creative teams. Solid grouping.

Wonder Woman
Teen Titans
Titans
Birds of Prey
Catwoman
Supergirl
Fables
Legion of Superheroes
Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds
Trinity
Manhunter
Huntress: Year One
Teen Titans: Year One

[Dream Boy]

Whoops! A post so nice, I had to do it twice.

[jackdaw53]

Dream boy. Trying (handicapped somewhat by my near total ignorance of current DC series) to evaluate your list. Then I made a conceptual breakthrough... they all feature good looking chicks. On that basis, has to be A+.

My own DC pull list:-
Jonah Hex
Manhunter (here DC thoughtfully saves me money by only issuing once a blue moon.)

[Brack360]

2- Your list is small, but Manhunter is a great read. I can't comment on Jonah Hex because I haven't read it, but it seems to have gotten great reviews.

My own list:
Batman
Batman and the Outsiders
Birds of Prey
Booster Gold
Catwoman
Detective Comics
Final Crisis
Justice Society of America
Manhunter
Nightwing
Robin
