Which, in your opinion, is the best comic book in terms of characterization, art (use any period), plot and feel?
X Men Dracula (1970's) Batman Superman Spiderman Fantastic 4 Avengers (includes Captain America) Other (Lobo, Deadpool, Punisher, etc) I personally nominate Avengers, with X men being a close second. X men loses major points for Cyclops ( I HATE HIM SO MUCH), and the whole "Jean is dead, now alive, now dead again!" thing. I haven't read enough of Dracula, but from the experts (guys who live in comic shops), it's pretty much universal that Dracula is the best. |

There's a little parody movie about the X-Men at Newgrounds.com making fun of Jean dying and coming back

I quite enjoyed the Fantasic 4 in my comic book days. Closely followed by Spiderman and X-Men, of course.

Watchmen, Sandman
Do 'graphic novels' count as comics? Or are they too 'arty to be considered? |

Sandman - and it was an actual series, so it has to count.
Early Claremont X-Men...when Cyclops pretty much rocked despite Degrader's hatred of him. |

I would have to nominate the Todd MacFarlane spiderman years for artwork. The man did some amazing things for Spidey, most notably evolving the costume from the original art of Romita which had been pretty standard for all the artists up until MacFarlane took over the book. He also borught in some heavy hitters like Venom, Carnage and a few others (I think the Demogoblin and Dopplespider which looked cool, even if they were rather lame in execution).

Care to explain why? Listing off several of the most popular titles doesn't really help unless we know why you're nominating them, or what era you're nominating them from, ie 60's Batman when it was as campy as the TV show, or 30's batman which was darker even than Tim Burton's Batman from the movie of the same name.
