recommend a book you think not enough people are reading.

I recommend X-Factor

It is by far the best book marvel is selling and its going to be ending soon so you'll have this huge story that actually has a proper ending(as much as I dont want it to end)

Its very very self contained, a little knowledge of the marvel universe helps but you wont be lost without it.

The characters are just sooo much fun and unlike other marvel books they actually talk and feel like real people.

So much insane stuff has happens in this books I dont want to spoil any of it for you, just go out and buy all the trades!

X-O Manowar from Valiant. It is a great story. It's also on sale for $0.99 an issue on Comixology. The main character reads like an amalgam of Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man. He has the personality of Thor, he is a man out of time like Cap, and he has an advanced suit of armor like Iron Man. Big fan so far.

IDW's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Like Mr. Katzman says, even if you only like the Turtles a little, do yourself a favor and start reading.

I am interested in TMNT and been saying I was going to get it, but... ... ... long story

speaking of long stories I have been greatly interested in xXx-Factor but there are 200+ issues that's a lot to catch up on plus to be able to find them all. To say that I am intimidated is putting it lightly.

9 + )

@yung_ancient_one: actually its only around 100 issues, marvel seems to love to confuse people with the way they number their books.

dont worry about having to read all the issues, just focus on getting the first trade paperback.(im sure you can get them all from amazon)

@ghost_runner: I wouldn't call X-Factor underrated - it gets fantastic reviews - just overlooked by too many people.

Is it too late to recommend Hawkman and Deathstroke? I guess it is.

I got out of my Batman safe zone a month ago, and explored different comics like Shadowman, X-O Manowar, and IDW's TMNT.

So I would recommend Shadowman, but right now try out X-O Manowar, Comixology is having a Sale $.99 each. Also TMNT issue 1 is free on Comixology give it a chance!
