JLA/Avengers (DC and Marvel Comics)
Kurt Busiek

DC Comics, 2008

Absolutely Breathtaking.
Absolutely breathtaking. It's been years since I've bought a comic book but debates with co-workers over DC and Marvel hero battles prompted me to do a little research. After reading numerous fanboy rants on several sites, I decided to check out some crossover action ...
  
  











  



  
Conan Volume 1: The Frost Giant's Daughter And Other Stories (Conan (Graphic Novels))
Kurt Busiek

Dark Horse, 2005

Conan Rules
The Art here is unbelievable, and the storytelling is excellent. I highly recommend this book, and this series. This is Conan, the way it should be told. The creators have made a beautiful and fitting tribute to one of the greatest fantasy characters of all-time. This ...
  
  











  



  
Superman: Up, Up, and Away! (One Year Later)
Kurt Busiek, Geoff Johns

DC Comics, 2007

The Essence of a Hero
"Superman - Up, Up and Away" is written by Kurt Busiek and Geoff Johns. The art by Pete Woods and Renato Guedes and able supporting creative staff. It is a year after the "Infinite Crisis". The world is still coping with a world without Superman. Unknown to most ...
  
  











  



  
Marvels
Kurt Busiek

Marvel Comics, 2003

My Favorite Book
I cannot believe anyone giving this book a bad review. Some people complain they don't know anything about Marvel, well, I'm not a Fantastic Four fan and have no knowledge of its story history and I was able to enjoy the saga of Galactus which is supposed to be one of ...
  
  











  



  
ASTRO CITY: THE DARK AGE, BOOK 1
Kurt Busiek

WildStorm, 2008

Heroes for the real world
Kurt Busiek's Astro City series are modern classics - sometimes told in similar vein as older stories but with fresh perspectives and depth of characterization seldom seen. His stories are more often told from the viewpoint of the man on the street rather than an ...
  
  











  



  
Conan Vol. 4: The Hall of the Dead and Other Stories
Kurt Busiek

Dark Horse, 2007

UNFINISHED HOWARD TALE
Robert E. Howard wrote a number of fantastic Conan stories in his lifetime but The Hall of the Dead was not one of them. Not that The Hall of the Dead isn't fantastic, but rather Howard didn't write it, at least not in full. Years after his suicide in 1936, numerous ...
  
  











  



  
Trinity Vol. 1
Kurt Busiek, Fabian Nicieza

DC Comics, 2009
  
  











  



  
Conan: Born on the Battlefield (Conan (Graphic Novels))
Kurt Busiek, Greg Ruth

Dark Horse, 2008

Great!
If you enjoy reading fantasy, enjoying a great tale, or just a good read, then you really should read this Graphic Novel. Yes, a graphic novel is nothing but a collection of 'comic' books into one volume and yes, I know how many people look down on comics. However, ...
  
  











  



  
Life in the Big City (Astro City, Vol. 1)
Kurt Busiek, Brent E. Anderson, ...

Wildstorm, 1999

Simply awesome super-hero comics
All you really need to know about Astro City is that these are some of the most enjoyable superhero comics being written today. Kurt Busiek has an exceptional talent for combining imaginative stories with believeable characters and intelligent writing, resulting in ...
  
  











  



  
Conan Vol. 2: The God in the Bowl and Other Stories (v. 2)
Kurt Busiek

Dark Horse, 2005

Another winner from Dark Horse's Conan
Dark Horse follows up the excellent "Frost Giant's Daughter" with another outstanding adaptation of a Robert Howard Original. Kurt Busiek takes a minor Conan story and builds another epic around it. Although many fans consider Bowl to be a little slow and one of ...
  
  











  



  
Astro City: Local Heroes
Kurt Busiek

Wildstorm, 2005

Another triumph
All of the Astro City books are worth a read. Well-written, excellently drawn, in a universe separate from DC and Marvel.
  
  











  



  
Superman: Back in Action
Kurt Busiek, Fabian Nicieza, ...

DC Comics, 2007

Superman's awesome off-beat team-ups!
Although I'm not a huge Superman fan this was a fun read. I got this book because Firestorm was on the cover. It starts when Superman gets his powers back after losing them during Infinite Crisis but after a year without him the rest of the world doesn't believe ...
  
  











  



  
Superman: The Third Kryptonian (Superman (Graphic Novels))
Kurt Busiek

DC Comics, 2008

The good and bad of The Third Kryptonian
Thank you DC Comics for showing me the amazing telent of Renato Guedes! The cover to The Third Kryptonian, to put it lightly, is beautiful. Guedes' art is simply bright and amazing and closer to real illustration more along the lines of Alex Ross. This makes Superman ...
  
  











  



  
Conan Vol. 3: The Tower of the Elephant and Other Stories
Kurt Busiek

Dark Horse, 2006

Superior to "The Chronicles..." Buy it!
I have the first 3 in this series: The Frost Giant's Daughter And Other Stories, The God In The Bowl And Other Stories and The Tower Of The Elephant And Other Stories. I find the artwork to be superior to the "Chronicals of Conan", and there is always at least one ...
  
  











  



  
Astro City Vol. 4: The Tarnished Angel
Kurt Busiek

Wildstorm, 2001

Another great Astro City story
Excellent work by Kurt Busiek and Brent Anderson. This story comes from the point-of-view of a super-villain who really aspires to be a hero. As good a "real life" look as the previous stories. You will root for the "bad guy".
