I really love MySpace Comics - you really get to preview some cool new comics & perhaps decide if it's for you. Something you'd like to invest your time in. It'll also introduce you to new stories, new titles, new writers.
I went through the blog (it's in order from most recent)... so here's from today to Sept. 2008)

Batman: Cacophony (3 parter)
by
Kevin Smith
Best-selling comic book writer/director Kevin Smith (GREEN ARROW, Daredevil, Clerks) continues his 3-part miniseries event with a bang! It's Batman vs. The Joker vs. Onomatopoeia in one of the craziest Batman adventures you've ever read. Will Batman be able to uncover the relationship between The Joker and Onomatopoeia in time to keep them from destroying Gotham City? Or are these villains too much for The Caped Crusader?

Mister X: Condemed
(4 parter) - Dean Motter
Twenty-five years ago, Mister X debuted with a concept so clever and a character so captivating that it influenced an entire generation of comics fans and creators. Today, Motter reclaims the reins and sets out to inspire a whole new generation with Mister X: Condemned, a completely fresh introduction to the elusive Mister X and his dystopian home--Somnopolis, the City of Nightmares.
With influences from Film Noir to German Expressionism, this story of a city gone mad and the never-sleeping man who's obsessed with saving it will amaze anyone interested in masterpiece storytelling born from the vision of a single iconoclastic creator.
* One of the most iconic characters of alternative comics--Mister X-is reborn in a new four-part series by his original creator, legendary designer Dean Motter!
"Perhaps the first legitimate combination of science fiction and German Expressionism seen in comics." -Frank Miller

Joker
By Brian Azzarello
Sneak Peek + interview
I got this for my boyfriend for Christmas and just got to read it myself last month. He loved it, it has that Christopher Nolan taste of the Joker to it. I liked it a lot... but it's not my favorite.
