Need comic book recommendations (lemmygrad.ml)

It's been a while since I have read any comic books. Been wanting to read one.

I am not an avid comic book reader. I would say capeshit is discouraged but feel free to recommend it if you want. I will leave it at your discretion. Any genre is fine except horror. Need something that has finished the run or at least has a good number of issues out so I can binge.

These are the ones I have read so far to give you an idea. But recommendations do not have to conform this list:

  1. Transformers: More Than Meets the Eyes is my favourite because of the heartfelt characters and great humour
  2. The Sandman. It's a classic and I liked it.
  3. East of West. I thought it was interesting but it didn't quite grab me.
  4. The 12 issue run of Mister Miracle. I thought what there was of it was good but it wasn't meaty enough IMO.
  5. Jeff Lemire run of Moon Knight. This was good.
  6. Saga. I read it until the hiatus. Liked it.

Monstress is good.

Watchmen is a classic.

I'm not sure why but I enjoyed the Prophet reboot.

Anything by Moebius will at least be visually gorgeous (like Arch).

There is a Marx and Engels Manga. I haven't read it so maybe you can and then give a review!

I've read both monstress (what was published of it at the time) and watchmen but it was a long time ago. I was a lot more illiterate back then so it could be worth revisiting them.
