I totally forgot about Fresh Ink. I watch that as well. Another good one is Pulp Secret. http://www.pulpsecret.com I do enjoy more adult oriented stories, but be careful about those "Intended for Mature Audiences" because some stories go too far :) (Like "The Boys") Thanks for the extra tip!

I too have recently gotten back into comics. I heartily agree with #1 about trade paperbacks. They are easier to carry (pages don't get wrinkled), contain full stories, and frankly look a tiny bit more professional. (It's tough to be in a suit on the train and thumb through a comic book. Well, tough for me anyways.) I'd also add another tip: if you're an adult getting back into comic books, read adult comics. I've become a HUGE fan of Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead series (now available in trade paper backs and hard cover!). Watch Blair Butler's "Fresh Ink" podcast for new suggestions, or go through her back episodes. She has tons of one-off shows about gritty adult fare or the best in trades. Great post!
