What are some cancelled comics that I should read? I'm thinking stuff like Dan Slott's Thing and She-Hulk, anything by Chris Priest...pretty much any cool short-lived comics that you liked back in the day that I might enjoy.

I'll check out all of the Atlas stuff. I've read some of it, but probably less than half, total.

I started buying Chronos when it came out and liked it, but didn't stick with it. Completely missed Young Heroes In Love.

Maybe. Tried it when it came out, but didn't stick with it.
Maybe. I remember reading the first issue and not being all that impressed.
Yes.
Maybe. I think I tried it and didn't like it.

I've read both of these. Love Leave it to Chance. Love the art in Tellos, but thought the writing was a little iffy.

I listed 7 you have 6 responses, so I don't know which ones I need to pump up to get you to try again.

Brubaker's Iron Fist -- at least the first trade or two. Can't remember how long he stuck before Fraction took over.

Astounding Wolfman - I read the first couple issues. The Walking Dead is the only thing by Kirkman that I've ever liked. Everything else has just been kind of "eh".
Mystique - Yes

Midnight Nation - Maybe. I remember reading the first issue and not being all that impressed.
Empire - Yes

Fixed.

Read and loved it. I plan to buy both trades (I think there are two) in the hopes that they'll revisit the book in the future.

I've read this. It's great and kind of made me see the appeal of Babs as Batgirl.

I've read the whole run with Bru and Fraction. Great book. I should check out the 5 Ronin series that Aja's doing. His art was incredible.

WO pointed out to me awhile back that they're doing one more issue with Captain America
for the Free Comic Book Day offering.

And, I'm hoping for a nice hardback afterwards that collects them all into one collection.
