I haven't read comics in a while...years really, but I decided to get back into them. Now, I haven't gone to the trouble of setting up a box and a pull list at my local comic shop, but I've picked up a few titles.

Right now, I'm reading the Sixth Gun and I'm enjoying the hell out of it. A little formulaic and predictable but I like the Drake Sinclair character.

I'm also reading the new Constantine. That's a very pretty book.

In case you haven't picked up on it, I like the dark, pulp style horror stuff more than superheroes. Anything else out there I should look into?

And feel free to share what you are reading or thinking about picking up.

Criminal by Ed Brubaker is pretty sweet.

I've read many of those, and I'm not the world's biggest Batman fan.

As far as DC is concerned:

Justice League Dark
Wonder Woman
Maybe Frankenstein: Agent of Shield?(haven't read it)

ETA: just saw the part about no superheroes. These are the ones with more, dark, horror style. Don't know about Frankenstein, just seemed like the subject matter might be right.
