i'd like you say that without your website i wouldn't know how or where to start in DC comics. because im new to comics, probably less than 6 months experience...so thank you keep it up.
You're welcome, and thank you for the note! That's absolutely the goal of Comic Book Herald, so I love hearing when it helps. What DC are you reading now?
@@Comicbookherald oh on my own reading im still on DC rebirth year one lol. but i go around and listen to other youtubers explain about DC rebirth's year one two and three, i've read doomsday clock...finished hero's in crisis. and started on year of the villians too. and now im listening to Comicstorian on dark knights metal. comics explained also helped me learn all the reboots in the history of DC also.
Yo you should explore metal yourself - it's one of my absolute favorite reads!
@@nesseihtgnay9419 Can You Tell Me Where To Start Reading Any Comics
I started reading comics in January and a video like this would have been insanely helpful, I'm sure this will help a ton of people.
Hi Dave, I am 45 years old, and since I was 20 years old, I did not read almost any comic books whatsoever, and every time I tried to come back to read, I got stopped by the insane amount of comics that were released since then and it is really overwhelming. Thanks to your website, since august this year I've been reading every day non-stop and enjoying as I did so many years ago on so many cool comics. Your website is truly a gem! Congrats and keep going! Cheers from Spain :)
Good for you man
Thank you! I've always felt overwhelmed knowing where to start and you helped discourage me from feeling like I had to read 60 year-old comics just to have fun. Plus you helped convince me to start with something more modern and accessible. I'm already hooked on Immortal Hulk, and I can't wait to go back and read some older issues when I get caught up!
Will be starting House of X soon using your guide. Can’t wait to start the new Hickman X-Men. I started with Claremont in the 70’s otr. His start thru Days of Future Past is still my favorite run. Hope this new new run takes that title. Needless to say I’m excited. Huge Hickman fan. Thanks for your site and channel. Top notch.
Man, you're awesome. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, this was really helpful
That Invaders run was amazing. I picked up a Chip signed copy of #1 from my semi-local shop. I missed his visit - damn! But I'll take that as a consolation!
Just found your website and I have to say that it has been extremely helpful as I am trying to get into the comics!
Have you gotten into any yet
You speak as professionally as I wish my professors would
War Of The Realms #1 Is A Fantastic Starting Point. Also Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man.
War of the Realms is so fun
I'm not a big Thor fan but I knew War of the Realms was going to "change" things. So, I read some War of the Realms but then ultimately read the Omega issue to find out what changed. Then I started reading Valkyrie, Loki and Punisher: Kill Krew.
I think a viable "where to begin" strategy is hop on a writer when they start their run. So, rather than read 6+ years of Thor I just decided to wait for Aaron's run to end and hop-on with the next writer. Then if I have a lull and the right motivation I might go back to Aaron's work.
Strong plan! Donny Cates and Nic Klein were just announced on Thor in 2020, and I'm really looking forward to that run kicking off!
@@Comicbookherald Thanks. I'm never sure how far to go back in my reading and how to schedule the time. Like I'm reading my current books while trying to make my way through the Boys (because of the Amazon show). I want to read Morrison's Doom Patrol because of the show. I came back to comics when DC Rebirth was launched but there's some New 52 stuff I want to read (i.e. Death of the Family). Per your recommendation, I want to read the Runaways (yet another comic based show I like) but rather than go back to the very first Runaways, I think it's easier to go back 25 issues for the current run.
I know everyone wants to start with #1 but my advice is to just jump on a book of a character you like or are interested in or a book you've heard good things about. If you like it, you can try to get back issues you missed or just get the trades. Trades are what got me into comics.
I'm excited to read both the entire Marvel Universe and Ultimate Marvel Universe. With Marvel Unlimited and your site, this will help me out. I'm gonna read DC also but i got to ask where are the other DC comic books like Rebirth etc?
I started with Bendis run on New Avengers, its a good start for new readers.
Read his Daredevil run
Bro your an absulute legend, thanks allot man
jkempe309 Minecraft universe is that you?
tate Oleson shh it’s net nobody in hiding
thanks !
I'm 59 and was brought up reading The Avengers, Hulk and Spiderman when they came out in the UK in early 70s. I've started reading Marvel again but would love a little guidance as things have moved a lot.
I've been download comics since May 2018. I've started downloading marvel comics since July 2019 by following Marvel Legacy. Am I doing this right or am I just pointlessly hoarding and instead just jump straight to Fresh Start?
im a 2000s kid and i really want to get some venom comics hes so cool
Then U should get it, I thinks it’s cool
Im starting to get into the actual comics more abd more and this video wow! Perfect entry point for me. I downloaded marvel unlimited to read comics and this was the the beat guide
Tri co no.
@@LoboTv_01 what are you talking about
I am from mexico were we dont have english comic book stores, where can I buy comics other than amazon, because there, most of the time comics are not available, and in ebay, it is really hard to find wich comic you want, I have been recommended of comiXology for a kindle, but I dont understand how it is used, could you make a video explaing comiXology, and its advantages and disadvantages?
-Thanks for your time
Since some of these released in 2019 will I find most of these on marvel unlimited?
Absolutely agree on Marvel Comics #1000, as well as Marvel Comics #1001, but I'll give it a pass because Al Ewing got to flex his continuity knowledge, and he will likely deliver an awesome story in Incoming #1.
It's a definite flex. At least 1000. His page in 1001 is literally the same thing twice (once forward and once backwards) which is actually a great "I dont have time for this" flex.
so do i read all these in order ?
So I started reading The Amazing Spider-man by Nick Spencer but it seems that he is already Spider-man and he's refering to couple of events that already happend before this comic. What if I wanna start reading the origin of this exact one, what should I read? I'm totally new to comics, I'll appreciate any suggestion!
is this in realese date order with every single comic marvel made?
I bought the comics based off the current Marvel movies, for Ex. I own the Civil War comic even though the comic came out before the movie.
ty herald
So like I wanna read xmen house of x maybe house of m ? And wolverine and rogue some Ironman and go from there. Do I need to read this to get to xmen?
if I want to start to read marvel comics am I obliged to start with the oldest one that I liked, our I can start were haver I want, and also sometimes in a volume there is a issue that crosses over with a story already happening, my question is if could be ok for to read that single issue If I didn't like that character??????, and I built a time line with the ones that I liked, someone let me know If anyone wants to see the timeline that I built, if anyone wants to give there one opinion
Can you make one for DC too
plz , help me out , in regard of how to commence in marvel comics but i wanna read all 27000 comics .
SO. MANY.
Are the marvel movies (like infinity war etc.) In the same timeline as the comics or?
Same characters but alternate universe.
Not the same timeline
i wanted to live a like, but the current number of them is "2099".. now i'm afraid that Miguel O'Hara would come looking for me..
Sins of sinister will be good
How do I know what universe a comic book exists in?
The label. It will say Marvel, DC, etc.
@@VazzVegas think he meant stuff like how spider Gwen is a different universe
@@thatblueghost2296 - if that's the case then usually you'll need to read the solicitation or the first issue's synopsis. Comics like Marvel Zombies, DCeased, and DIEnamite, are all solid examples of different universes outside of their mainstream universes for different labels.
As a big fan of Conan comics, you hurt me a little bit, but good video nonetheless.
Ha I get that. I'm really just out of the loop on the character :)
I’m sure you get this a lot but you should make a video identical to this for dc.
start at DC Rebirth. Rebirth is a great place to start.
How do you gesture 15 dramatically? You hold up both hands for the "10" and then you act like you're high-fiving (as slow or as fast as you desire) the camera/audience for the final five!
Lol well there you have it! I'll start perfecting the technique for my DC picks
@@Comicbookherald I was hoping you would do a similar video for DC. I'm interested in your take on their continuity. I was ranting/explaining to a friend how Batman was in space preparing to battle Perpetua, joining some of the best detectives in the DC Universe to find out the identity of Leviathan and was recuperating on Catwoman's couch after doing battle with Bane and the Flashpoint version of his father...and somehow this was all taking place at the same time or maybe not.
I thought Rebirth was a perfect jumping on point: continuing what was set up in New 52, bringing back legacy characters, etc. But after No Justice, Bendis ageing up Jon Kent, wiping out most of the Titans via the change in that book (prior to cancellation) and Heroes in Crisis and the delay of Doomsday Clock it's like most of the goodwill and set-up of Rebirth no longer exist. But again, I'm looking forward to your DC video and your take on their current landscape.
What about History of the Marvel Universe? It will help read anything Marvel
That's a good call. It's a bit outside of my focus for current storylines but could be a good evergreen pick for newer readers. I'm not totally sold on it yet, but I'm a little behind!
@@Comicbookherald It supposedly might play a role in what Al Ewing is doing with Immortal Hulk, especially based on the ending to Immortal Hulk #24.
What is the best fresh start for psylocke and elektra? I just don’t think I can get in any 90s comic.
I'm looking for the reading order for marvel before 2000. I really don't care for the Disney Marvel comics that have been released since 2009.
My answer to get marvel ( not fresh start just marvel)
X-men 141
Avengers dissemble
Web of Spider man 1
Wolverine and x-men 1
Punisher max 1
Daredevil 158
Incredible Hulk 92
Agent venom 1
Wolverine origins 1
X factor volume 3 issue 1
To much time on the hands. This where I would tell people to start if want to read marvel.
Iron Fist #1?
Is this guide still useful?
Yes
Where to get started: anything before 2014.
I don't have time for a 30 minute vidoe but if you could help me with where to start reading nova I'd really appreciate it
Where do I buy comic books?
From a comic shop.
@@VazzVegas k, thx
"im certain the eternals will come to the mcu - *eternals movie dropping next month*
Not being rude at all. Just wanted to make that clean, does anyone else think this guy looks like Anthony cumia's kid?
No idea who that person is
@@210SAi Google?
@@Peachpistol not worth my time
Yet here we are.
Fix your website every time I go there to look at reading lines it give me goddamn pop-ups of porn Or that you won something scam
For a 30 minute video this is pretty much useless and you just vaguely glanced over everything, with nothing related to anything, without giving an actual reading order of any trade paperbacks, just relying on us going to your website instead of already giving a proper timeline of things to read in order and what comes before and after. There's such confusion in wich order to read the past 6 years of X-Men, Uncanny X-Men, Wolverine and X-Men, Death of Wolverine, Avenger VS X-Men, All-New X-Men, All-New All-Different X-Men, it's a cluster fuck.. I came out as informed as I started came in, this video could have been 10 seconds long with you just telling us to go the website that it would've done the same effect. And the website also doesn't solve anything. It's just a bunch of random runs.
Yeh I am completely confused, even WITH the website. Idk what comics to start with and then what other comics I should get
@@quokka831 I'm relatively new to comics as well. It really just depends on you. I pay for Marvel Unlimited which has pretty much everything if you don't mind reading them digitally. It's certainly easier thats for sure. And it all depends on your favorite heroes and who you want to learn about the most. Spider man is my favorite so honestly I started from the very first issue with him. The comics are released in volumes so if you don't want to start all the way from the very beginning, which is a pretty large task lol, maybe start at volume 2 of the characters and go from there. They're usually more of a modern style that starts in the 90s or so and will usually be a fresh start and may even go over the origins of the characters again. It just depends on you and how far back you want to go. I just did a little research and just picked a starting point. No matter what you can dig back further when your ready. There's plenty to ready it never ends lol just pick a point and go for it. I'd say stick with the mainline titles though. At least until you get grounded enough.
Tip to everyone don't start marvel everything is woke and boring,worst storytelling ever
Boring sure, bad storytelling sure, woke if we’re talking politics it’s always about implementation alot of books are political however just cause something is political doesn’t make it good I’d say.
Answer: Just don't.
Why
@@lechosenone7016just don't, man.
