Yes, I love the Atlas westerns. They were so gritty compared with most of the product on the newstands at the time. Moreover, they usually featured Joe Maneely cover art.

These jungle comics with Maurice Whitman cover art are also among my favourites from the early fifties:

  Love those Jungle covers, especially the ones with Tiger Girl.  Me-YOWW.  Always liked cat related women characters (Catwoman, Tigra, Black Cat, Hellcat).

Growing up: Gold Key's Magnus Robot Fighter (still awesome), Turok Son of Stone, Hot Stuff, and Joe Kubert's Tarzan and Sgt Rock. Today: Mouseguard.

I've always been a big fan of Red Ketchup, one of our local success stories.

I really liked Bone. It was like a modern day adventure story, with old school sensibilities and style.

The Crow
Sin City
V for Vendetta
The Goon (Not sure if that counts as horror since he fights monsters, but it's a very funny comic.)
