Jerm, you've been given a huge reading list. When you get tired of reading Marvel, let us know and I'm sure we'll all point you in other directions like:

Saga
Sex Criminals
Zero
Velvet
Preacher
Y The Last Man

this plus
the authority
100 bullets
archer and armstrong
wicked west: the legend of oz

just started
richard stark's parker by darwin cooke the first book is the inspiration for payback with mel gibson

The ultimate Hulk v Wolverine is excellent.

[Aries Walker]

And Manifest Destiny. Excellent non-Marvel.

[Bowser]

For a stand alone, I really enjoyed Old Man Logan.

Haven't been keeping up on anything ongoing because I'm kind of a DC guy and New 52 has been utter ****ing shit from the get go but anyone else find it hilarious that all the hipsters are raving about Cameron Stewart's new Batgirl design when... it's basically the exact same as Quitely/Daniels's Damian Wayne outfit that's existed for like 3/almost-four-ish years?

He is not dead anymore.

As for her, it is because of all the feminism in comics going on and desexing the costumes.

Which I find funny, because almost every male costume is just as revealing.

Those aren't even a little bit similar.

That'd be Yvonne Craig. Yvonne De Carlo was Lily Munster.

The more you know.

[Aries Walker]

Those costumes aren't the same.

wow who said they were the same? durrr one's purple and one has red. No. Stylistically they hit on the same beats compared to the Jim Lee "heavy armored" crap he designed for the New 52. Jacket, combat boots, short cape, etc

The similar elements are pretty minor, and hardly unique to the Damian Robin design. Robin has had a jacket and short cape since about 1940.

I don't know. If you give me a minute, I might think of who exactly that was.

Having a few elements in common does not make them "the exact same".
