**********
[NOTE: I should have had this up last week to follow the example set by the much harder working Ben in his whole series which you should go back and re-check out, but it was a weird thing to do. At first I felt like I couldn't find enough comics that I felt as strongly about as the ones I love most on this list...then I found I had way, way too many fucking comics and had to cut way down. I hope no one takes this as a best of all time list (as if anyone really gives a shit what my best of all time would look like) and more as a snapshot of why I'm so juvenile at this age. - KP]

  1. I was in a severe state of suspense about halfway down trying to figure out of this was you or Rickey.

  2. What tipped you towards Kiel? Spider-Man 2099 is the definite giveaway.

  3. Like Brian, I was wondering if this was Kiel or me. I was thinking maybe I wrote this in one of those Tyler Durden hallucinations? But then again, when I do mine (AND I'M GONNA DO MINE), Batman won't be on the list. Superman's my cup of Kool-Aid. :)

    And I just refound my copy of both Grickles!!! If you find yourselves near a newsstand anytime soon, pick up the new-ish Spongebob all-comics magazine one-shot special - Graham has a fucking Spongebob strip in there!

  4. To me, it's obviously a Kiel list once you hit The Rocketeer.

    Also: Rickey, that may be the second to last if not the last issue of Nickelodeon magazine. So fucking sad, man.
