I'd love to read them because I love a lot of the movies (live-action and animated). But, it seems very difficult for new readers. : /

If that's the case I'd reccommend checking out DC's Elseworlds. They're basically semi-canonical AU fanfic; most of them are self-contained stories, and they don't really need any background knowledge. Some of my favourites are Gotham by Gaslight, Batman & Dracula: Red Rain, Superman: Secret Identity, and JLA: The Nail (that last one actually does need a bit of background knowledge of some of the major characters, but it's nothing you can't get from Googling).

And if you like things that are comically bad, you might want to read Superman: At Earth's End. It's one of the most hilariously awful things I've ever read. (It has Superman fighting twin Hitler clones in the distant future, which is run by evil mutants.)

Are they dark or goofy? I prefer the darker stuff, tbh. At least for my reading material.

Some Elseworlds are dark, some aren't. They come in pretty much every tone. As for the specific ones I just rec'd:

- Gotham by Gaslight = dark
- Batman & Dracula: Red Rain = VERY dark (although still not as dark as its sequels, which are not as well written)
- Superman: Secret Identity = not dark, but not goofy either
- JLA: The Nail = somewhat dark, but ends on a less-dark note
- Superman: At Earth's End = tries way too hard to be dark and ends up being funny instead.

I am totally going to try and get ahold of these. Thank you for the recs!

Re: Meme

[dethtoll]

Gotham by Gaslight is what you want. I'd also recommend the Red Rain trilogy, except they're illustrated by Kelly Jones and I hate his art.

Re: Meme

[kaijinscendre]

Is Red Rain a vampire Batman storyline?

Re: Meme

[dethtoll]

Yes.

Fucking Doug Moench and Kelly Jones. I never liked this story, but it was before I got seriously into comic books (and not just reading random Batman stories) and I only just now realized why -- the art sucks and the writing sucks and I hate these two assholes and they had this long run on Batman in the 90s that was just EXCRUCIATING to read.

Re: Meme

[dethtoll]

Trust me, Marvel isn't any easier with 40+ years of continuity (read: baggage) that is ignored or obsessed on depending on the writer.

Re: Meme

[kaijinscendre]

I don't read Marvel comics either. Comics in general are confusing. Except The Walking Dead. Because there is only one storyline.

Re: Meme

[dethtoll]

Nah. It's really just the big two and that's due to their age and how the companies are run. Creator-owned comics are far less confusing, including Kirkman's "Invincible" which I highly recommend.
