Captain America at least. Everyone should read him. He is without a doubt the best superhero Marvel has.

And he has one of the best quality ongoings too, ever since Brubaker took over. Which was quite a while ago, so there's plenty to read.

I'd start reading some Marvel but I'm afraid I'll get addicted. This hobby has already taken enough of a toll on me. BUT, I'm thinking if you guys recommend an amazing must read Marvel book to peak my interest, I might buy it. So lay it on me.

Anyways, I got Sandman Volume 3 today, yessss luv sandman

I'd probably be more interested in conversations here if we were talking about Batman or something.

yep

Not sure what the Runaways are but it sounds a lot nicer starting out at volume 1 rather than jumping directly in the middle of probably like 100 years of continuity

Did Marvel ever have it's own Crisis on Infinite Earths or have we just been reading the same **** for the past century where nobody ages

Brubaker's run, he started at issue 1, and it went up to issue 50 before it reverted back to the original numbering. The first story is called Out of Time.

and you won't miss out on any continuity if you start there in Captain America - everything's explained very, very well.

moon knight's probably the same, but the first issue or so won't have exactly the same effect if you hadn't read the prior three volumes, but you can just read up on them on wikipedia if you want to skip them.

I remember asking for a bunch of Marvel recommendations a few topics ago. I still haven't gotten around to reading any of them! I have Iron Man v4, Spider-Man, and Astonishing X-Men all lined up, but when I sit down to read I end up gravitating towards something different.

Transmetropolitan was a good read though! <_<
