But what other comics should I look for? Avengers? Iron Man? Thunderbolts?!

Agreed, although it really depends on your taste of characters.

@Icarusflies: Wish I would've picked up on Jeff Lemire's Animal Man sooner, then I wouldn't have to back-track on the character and story line. They're already 14-15 issues into the series, so i've decided jus to stay true to the titles I've been following since I got into comics, so far it's working out quite well! Aquaman and Green Lantern have some badass story arcs being told right now, especially when Death of a Family, He'l On Earth, it's so hard to get a chance to dig into the Rotworld Crossover. However, I've only been hearing good things about this story arc and might want to take that chance of digging into the two characters, even further. I mean, I've known Swamp Thing for a couple years now, but with Animal Man, being a new character in my eyes, it'll be more difficult to follow along.

@ckuakini: The new 'Avengers' series by Hickman and Opeña is definitely worth checking out. There are also the All-New X-men, Detective Comics (#13 - #15), Thor: God of Thunder and Indestructible Hulk. Note: All of the series mentioned are fairly new.

Earth 2. This month's issue was good and we finally got to see what happened to Mr. Terrific.

@tomlikesfries: Are they making some sort of crossover for Detective Comics issues 13-15 , or is it just a badass story arc? Yeah, i've already got my eyes on Indestructible Hulk, but the second issue doesn't get released till the 19th. Avengers is one of the titles I'm definitely gonna be picking up, for sure. Is Thor really worth picking up? I've been only hearing good things about him, but his tone of voice, not sure but I'm not a huge fan. (Besides his role as an Avenger)

@SmashBrawler: Really want to look more into the Earth 2 title, but got caught up in other things. SO MUCH GOING ON IN THE WORLD OF COMICS! EMPTYING MY WALLET BEFORE THIS WEEK ENDS FOR SURE!!

@ckuakini: Detective Comics has gotten extremely better with the change of writers. I don't think there are any crossovers, but Death of the Family, which you can easily understand without reading any other books.

And as for Thor, I think his tone of voice only makes it better, but that's just my opinion. The plot is awesome and the art is flawless. Every issue we get a look at young, present and old Thor, who are fighting the God Butcher... who... uh... kills Gods. The villain is pretty badass :P

@ckuakini: I know what you mean. There's a lot of series out there that look very tempting (like All-New X-Men), but I'm buying too much damn stuff already.

The first six or so issues of animal man are collected in a trade if you want to try it out.
