Favorite team-up title

[SJNeal]

The Brave and the Bold.

But I voted other, because I'm assuming the title in the poll is the original Batman book, whereas I liked the recent Waid/JMS series.

The Brave and the Bold.

But I voted other, because I'm assuming the title in the poll is the original Batman book, whereas I liked the recent Waid/JMS series.

I liked that one too. Eliminating a few spectacularly awful issues at the start of the Straczynski run, which were both formulaic in a boring way (The hero loses his powers or spends the issue tied up or something so they can't do cool stuff) and both predictably and heavy-handedly moralistic...

You've got about 31 good issues from a 35 issue series. Even the interim writers were surprisingly good - the Hine/Braithwhite stuff was about the best dark science fiction story I've ever read in a superhero book. Not that there's a lot of competition.

Definitely the best rotating cast team-up book, IMO. Much better than, say, Super-Team family or Marvel Team-Up (Third series) and far more consistently good than the pre-Batman Brave and the Bold stories in the '60s.

Marvel Team-Up. It's the title that brought me into comics, and I think it is the most straight forward title of the bunch (followed quickly by Marvel Two-in-One). I would love to see the return of both those titles, actually.

There's an Avenging Spider-Man book, now. So far it's solidly Okay... Just like (let's face it) 80% of the original Marvel Team-0Up series. Which is basically the same thing. I was afraid it was going to be completely Avengers-centric, but there was a Daredevil and Punisher issue so I guess that's not true. (Not as good as the spectacular Bill

I voted for Other, because I am a total cheater. My pick is Rom Team-Up, better known as Rom. Like I said, it's a cheat, but really, starting around issue 17, Rom had one guest star or another in almost every storyline for the rest of the run. Rom Team-Up!

Mantlo loved using guest-stars in both Rom and Micronauts. But yeah, maybe even moreso in Rom.

(He also seemed to have a thing for obscure Hulk foes in Rom. Missing Link, Metal Master, Gremlin (son of the Gargoyle)...)

Of these, the Marvel books are the only ones I've read much of, and I think I preferred MTIO. I was fond of The Thing, and not a fan of Spider-Man, and the stories seemed richer. Sometimes there'd even be arcs, like the Serpent Crown Affair.

Of course MTU #100 is a classic.
