Your fave Non horror Non superhero comics.

[Scary Terry]

I dig all the stuff mentioned in the first two posts.  The EC Crime comics are a particular favorite -- the Johnny Craig stories especially.  Ed Robbins' MIke Hammer comic strip is a knockout! The war/adventure EC titles are great, too. I love Kurtzman's Mad, Eisner's Spirit -- and John Stanley's Little Lulu comics are a great fun read!  Marge's original Lulu panel cartoons are wonderful, too.

Vintage newspaper strips are my favorite thing.  I'm so grateful we're getting quality book collections of them now.  Segar's Popeye, Caniff's Terry and the Pirates, Gould's Dick Tracy and Hal Foster's Prince Valiant are top of my list.  I'm also loving the early volumes of Peanuts and Dennis the Menace -- wonderful cartooning!  Al Capp's Li'l Abner and Roy Crane's Capt. Easy are also favorites. I'm really looking forward to  the upcoming Rip Kirby collection by Alex Raymond.  Hope someone will do the same book treatment for Frank Robbins' Johnny Hazzard.  Frank Godwin's Rusty Riley, too.

I like a good Western comic -- anything drawn by Everett R. Kinstler , Jack Davis, John Severin or Wm. Overgard.  I wish there were a big book of Jose Luis Salina's CIsco Kid comic strip.  And I'll take anything in any genre drawn by Jack Kirby.

I like a lot of the underground comics -- the early Warren mag comics (and the later period with lots of Bruce Jones, Rich Corben, Russ Heath, Alex Toth, Frank Thorne  and John Severin).  Joe Kubert's adaptations of the Tarzan novels still thrill me.  I like Lynda Barry's comics -- crude art, but great writing.

Favorites from overseas: Lone Wolf and Cub, Tintin, Garth, Modesty Blaise, Corto Maltese , Blake & Mortimer -- anything by Serge Clerc, Yves Chaland,  Joost Swarte, Jordi Bernet -- this list could go on a lot longer, but I have work to do!!!

 I grew up on the Tarzan comics as well Terry, first the Gold key then the later DC versions.  I always enjoyed the Richard Corben 'Den' series in Heavy Metal magazine, as well as Moebius'  and Alex Nino's artwork.  There were some really fantastic stories to be found in Heavy Metal.

Agreed but lately I've been going back and browsing through back issues and old TPB's.  I plan on picking up G.I. Joe Classics Vol 1 this week...

Two great story arcs that I have been skimming around in need mention...#1 The Infinity Gauntlet. Which was in my opinion one of the greatest stories in all of Marvel U. I think that may have been the 1st really big arc that effected almost everyone in the Marvel U. Secret Wars may have come 1st, but Gauntlet was "bigger". Over 15 years old and were still seeing statues and action figures made of Thanos, Lady Death and Adam Warlock because of this. I could read this over and over...and I do...which brings me to...

2. If you are a Star Wars fan in the least bit, and can get into the expanded universe, you dont need to know much to enjoy this one, but I highly recomend Star Wars: The Crimson Empire...a GREAT story of loyalty that takes off right from Return Of The Jedi. It focuses on the Empire (whats left of it) and mainly on two Crimson Guardsmen, thats all I'll say.

After you read that..you'll know why the Emperor had 2 of those dudes in his chambers at all times....bad(*at*)**!!!! (Another comic that I always leave near by!)

I've fallen in love with John Stanley's Little Lulu over the past couple years. Read a few, but discovered the library had a lot of the Dark Horse books in the kid's section.

Anything by Eisner, Kim Deitch, Dan Clowes, Los Bros Hernandez. 60s horror comics from Warren, Dell and Gold Key. Been thinking about pulling out by box of undergrounds to see how they hold up.

[Dr.Teufel Geist]

Jonah Hex is that considered non Horror?
Punisher:war zone
Red Sonja #1
TMNT, they are not superheroes, they're ninjas.

Yep,see,another Lulu fan. Just plain fun. Same goes for the Carl Barks Duck stuff.
As for Undergrounds I am still reading American Splendor everyday at lunch. Big fan of R.Crumb(genius) which inspired me to draw undergrounds myself back in the day. Never had anything published but people over the years that I showed em to thought they were great.
Some titles I used to collect were Zap , Mr Natural , Slow Death ,Insect Fear,Binky Brown and the stuff with the cute fuzzy animals being all bad and depraved.

WL,
      Yeah, i'm a big fan of the underground comics myself...i recently located my old stash of them tucked away [from the prying eyes of my kids while growing up] in my attic. I brought 'em all down and bagged 'em, giving them the respect they deserve. R Crumb has always been high on my list of Faves along w/ Gilbert Shelton, S. Clay Wilson and Rick Griffin. I used to get'em from Krupp's Mail order back in the day. All wonderfully depraved stuff! Who can forget Tommy Toilet [still have that poster] Wildman Sam, Mr, Natural, etc... I was delighted to find ALL my Zap comics in the stack, in decent shape and even the forbidden 3 issues of Snatch...better stop here don't wanna get banned! Keep the Underground flame burning, my friend!

So did I... I'd be sweating as I signed the certifcation that I was over 18 (since I was in 9th grade). My goal was to be published in an underground before I was able to by them.

OMG... I totally forgot about having to verify your age! I remember being SO relieved when my first order came and i didn't get arrested!!
