Ed,

Those last 5 on the list are less superheroish, though somewhat lighter than “Invisibles” and “The Filth.” Though you might enjoy “Doom Patrol” and “Animal Man” even with the superhero elements.

Morrison is the reason I got into comics.

Specifically,the invisibles.

Other than the filth, is there anything more aong those lines? (non super hero..although I feel animal man falls into this category)

P, P, Please help a guy out!

p.s. All the best Baldy!..hope you had a fantastic day…one more year closer to the source.

Jackson,

Thanks for reading! And I admit at present I kind of tend towards Morrison’s more superheroey work. What’s your favorite?

The order is all wrong,but I’m psyched there’s another Okie down with Mr Morrison.

That’s such a big list that it becomes a game of exclusion . Actually, New X-Men is collected in only three trades now, leaving room for Marvel Boy, Fantastic Four 1234, DC One Million, and Batman and Son. Personally, I’d be inclined to leave off the last JLA trade (WW3) in favour of another helping of Batman.

Somnopolis,

I mentioned Flex Mentallo at the end as one to look in back-issue bins for – as far as I know it’s never been collected as a graphic novel! It’s worth the effort to track down, though.

No Flex Mentallo?

I could get behind reading Marvel Boy as well.
And I’m sure there could be arguments for his recent “Batman” work and/or “Final Crisis.” Ultimately, I think his “Batman and Robin” will hold up pretty well, but it’s not in collected format yet.
