| 1. Batman: The Long Halloween | 
|
By: Jeph Loeb, Tim Sale
Publisher: DC Comics
November 01, 1999
I was blown away on how good this story was. I am a big Marvel fan, but have been thinking about breaking out into mainstream DC books. I was not disappointed with this read. It combines Batman's dark precence and a great murder mystery to make a great story. The art also contributes to this as well. This is a great start for anyone who wants to read more Batman, and I am sure I will buy more Batman... more

| 2. Batman: Hush |

By: Jeph Loeb
Publisher: DC Comics
August 18, 2009
When you say something has it all, you normally overlook a few items. This is not the case when you read Hush and look at all of the elements. Storywise, you have everything you could ask for from Batman and a little more. There are the romantic elements that combine with the prolific Batman elements of yore, not to mention the thing that always hides somewhere inside a great storyline. There are the... more

| 3. Hulk Volume 4: Hulk Vs. X-Force Premiere HC (Incredible Hulk) | 
|
By: Jeph Loeb, Ian Churchill
Publisher: Marvel Comics
March 17, 2010
Hulk fans, know this: the true strongest there is makes NO appearance in this book (unless you consider an appearance in one of Doc Samson's dreams valid).
Almost a Hulk scholar, I've been following this new series intently. So far I've been mostly disappointed, especially with the issues in "Hulk No More" (v3). It seemed this new series was a sloppy attempt to kill off Bruce/Hulk and... more

| 4. Batman: Dark Victory |
|
By: Jeph Loeb, Tim Sale
Publisher: DC Comics
October 01, 2002
It's an outstanding masterpiece that every dark knight friend has to read it. It defines the hero and shows the beginning of a wonderful relationship with Dick Grayson, the first Robin. One of his worst enemies emerges, that is Two-Face of course, while his friendship with Commissioner Gordon is tested. It's a must for every fan, for it's a pure pleasure. So, what are you waiting for? I'll definitely... more

| 5. Hulk Volume 3: Hulk No More TPB (Incredible Hulk) | 
|
By: Jeph Loeb, Ed McGuinness
Publisher: Marvel Comics
March 10, 2010
This is straight-ahead mindless cartoony Hulk action - what works about it is indeed the unabashed fighting (that's been going on since the series started 2 volumes ago) - and Vol. 3 serves up more of the same. The plot this time shows the "Defenders" being reformed from a different time stream to fight in a duel set up between the Grandmaster and the Collector.
As I've said before... more

| 6. Hulk: Green Hulk/Red Hulk HC (Incredible Hulk) |
|
By: Jeph Loeb, Ed McGuinness, Arthur Adams, Frank Cho
Publisher: Marvel Comics
December 09, 2009
This is just fun comic bookness at its best. It has mystery and action and two Hulks. What more do you need? How about Rick Jones as his own new monster, or even a knock down drag out brawl between Rick (now called A-Bomb) and this mysterous Red Hulk. This is the type of story that you read as a youngster and had a good time with but long after the story is over you will be thinking about "who... more

| 7. Batman: Haunted Knight |
|
By: Jeph Loeb, Tim Sale
Publisher: DC Comics
September 01, 1996
"Haunted Knight" collects three different Batman tales by Loeb and Sale all of which focus on Halloween. It's an interesting idea. The art is a bit exaggerated as was the style in the mid 90s when these issues were first released. The insight into the character of both Batman and Bruce Wayne is excellent. So are the takes on Alfred, the Mad Hatter and the Scarecrow. Two of the stories are excellent... more

By: Jeph Loeb
Publisher: Marvel Comics
October 28, 2009
I think the book was designed to create the response it has gotten. I got the book more for David Finch than Loeb. It's a comic book and it's entertainment. If you don't like it, then don't buy it. This was about creating shock and awe and it did. Comic books are an escape and should not be taken so seriously. Spare me the blah blah. It's a comic book. You either like it or you don't. The attacks... more

| 9. Superman for All Seasons |
|
By: Jeph Loeb
Publisher: DC Comics
October 01, 2002
I'm by no means a big Superman fan. I've always found him to be kind of boring, his enemies to be somewhat disinteresting and the character himself to be overpowered and unappealing. However, I have to say, I love this book.
Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale have made a very accessible, fun and overall excellent Superman story by retelling his first year as Superman, going from Smallville to Metropolis... more

| 10. Ultimatum TPB | 
|
By: Jeph Loeb, David Finch
Publisher: Marvel Comics
February 10, 2010
I've been pretty attached to the Ultimate Marvel Universe since its beginning. Its simpler, less-continuity-heavy story telling appealed to me in a way that the main Marvel and DC Universes didn't; and as an added bonus, it had decades of good storylines to pick and choose amongst in creating its own continuity. Sadly, over time (and a few hundred issues worth of trade paperbacks), it picked up enough... more
