Off the top of my head:
>DC
Watchmen #4: "Watchmaker"
>Marvel
Fantastic Four #51: "This Man... This Monster!"
Sensational She-Hulk vol 1 #50
Superman vol 4 #7
To keep the thread bumped I’ll do two alternatives
New Frontier issue 1
Fantastic four 275
>DC
For the Man Who Has Everything
>Marvel
Future Imperfect Part 2
Come on, the only comics people here read are Marvel and DC.
This.
Pretty pathetic how most anons can’t, or don’t have any interest in, even sharing two single issues. Board of casuals these days. And some homosexual contrarian will say marvel and dc have always sucked or some tourist will say “they haven’t made anything good in years” as if that means they can’t read older issues.
Just sad to be honest. Pitiful state of affairs on Cinemaphile.
I don't read Marvel. I've read maybe 60-80 total single issues - and that's mostly because I skimmed read a bunch of the Brubaker Cap run to get up to speed for Winter Soldier after I saw the movie the first time, and felt annoyed about it. I can't think of any one of those 'single issues' that would even beat out any one single issues if I created a top 50 for DC. Or even come close.
Which again, may something about the Marvel I read or my lack of interest in the characters, etc.
And yes, I've read plenty of things besides DC.
>favorite single issues from dc? Only 1 from each.
It's highly flawed in some ways, but the use of a variety of artists and a lot of the ideas would make it a huge contender for favorite "single issue" since it would be hard for me to disassociate say a floppy of an arc out from the rest of the arc, save for really great art.
It got me interested in some of his other work, such as his creator owned stuff at Image and I'm sorry that he's now reduced to doing video games to make a living since I understand it's not what he would PREFER to be doing, which is writing.
You seem like you haven’t actually read many comics made before 2011
I own a number of the Silver Age and Golden Age omnibus, son.
I could point to plenty of say Mystery in Space or Brave and the Bold or 1950s era Adventure Comics I really enjoyed and go back and re-read, but none of them are 'favorite single issue' standard, at least not by my standards. They are perhaps top 50, but not even top 30.
The people making thoughtful replies are getting absurd responses, like the one I reply to above. The few other people playing are listing one or two short choices, with only a few listing more than a very brief 'what happens' and no one else really listing WHY it's a favorite issue other than
this anon
THIS is also a very valid
as it mirrors my own comments. To which, again, someone else - if it's not you - is making an absurd, 'stop the conversation' type bait response.
>DC
Doom Patrol #57
Not only one of the best 'everything you know is wrong' stories, but one of the best villain monologues ever.
>Marvel
Marvel Two-in-One #86
A great low-key issue of character development between Ben Grimm and The Sandman.
Swamp Thing Anatomy Lesson
Daredevil Last Hand
>DC
Detective Comics #567- Night of Thanks but No Thanks
A story where Batman goes out to fight crime and there is literally nothing. Batman is itching to fight someone or arrest someone but the most he can find is someone littering. He goes home and goes to bed. It would be the perfect final issue of any Batman comic.
>Marvel
Either The Kid Who Collects Spider-Man
After reading an article about his bigges fan Spider-Man pays a visit to the child who has a disease.
Spider-Man #17
Spider-Man dies while saving a family. Not to anything bombastic. He straight up inhales freon from a busted A/C. And when he dies his biggest regret is that he failed to save one person and he fights death to get back to life.
Thunderbolsts vol1 22 (hawkeye stops hercules)
Tales of the green lamtern annual 3 (how to make a blind alien a green lantern)
Interesting choices
For me hawkeye advice to do the right rhing before you jave time to regret was very useful in my life
And rot lop fan's story is just the kind of creativity we love in auperhero comics. I was really surprised with the solution.
>and he fights death to get back to life.
That sounds pretty wild, which run? There's kind of a few Spider-Man #17's floating around these days.
Damn i wish this thread would get more replies. But I forget no one reads comics here. All they have is pedo dogwhistle threads and softcore porn threads.
What was your answer anon?
Anon I asked you a question.
comics have also moved beyond single issues as the one unit of storytelling so of course no one has real favorites
Most people itt provided some. Just because you’re a newbie who doesn’t read older comics doesn’t mean everyone else is.

superman #400

none
>DC
Time & The Batman off the top of my head, but there's probably a better answer.
>Marvel
I don't read much Marvel, so it has to be WHAT IF... Doom Was A Hero?
