Real answers:
Fables
Ultimate Spider-Man
Brand New Day (aka post Mephisto story Spidey)
Brubaker's Cap
Iron Man: Extremis

Until the unsatisfying (for me) ending, Y the Last Man would have been on that list.

Oh, and All-Star Superman! Take Extremis off and put that in its place. All-Star Supes was one of the best things I've read.

Ultimate Spider-Man
Ultimates Vol. 1&2
Morrison's New X-Men
Umbrella Academy 1&2

Call that a top 15 in no particular order.

Tom Strong was good too. For some reason I thought it was late 90s.

PAD's Supergirl. I'm the only person on earth who liked it. :) I think his Linda Danvers was one of the greatest characters in recent memory.
And Runaways. :lol: This is why I should wait until other people post and remind me of what's out there before I respond.

Brubaker's Captain America would probably be #1 off of the top of my head, as it was the one book at a certain point I remember raving the most about... I enjoyed some dopey stuff that probably wouldn't make "classics" lists elsewhere.. Wheedon & Cassady's first X-Men arc, Millar & JRJR's Wolverine.

I've enjoyed a surprisingly large amount of DC stuff this decade too.. Some stuff I never ever thought I'd say that about! Booster Gold, for instance.

I'd put Brubaker's Cap up there if it was about 10 or 15 issues.

The latest issue of Cap Reborn is what he's had in mind for 50 issues. Too much filler to get there.

The "filler" is so good it still makes my list.

It was a labor to hang in there for all these years while he treaded water.

I did like the one where Bucky was going around trying to figure out what was going on.
