VICE Guide to Comics: The Top 10 Comics of All Time
Рет қаралды 476,462
Күн бұрынWalking into a comic book store can be intimidating. There are thousands of different comic books, and usually a man behind the counter you don't want to bother out of fear of a snarky response. Thankfully, our art editor and resident comic book expert Nick Gazin is here to share with us the Top 10 Comic Books of all time to get you beginners started. And like Nick says, this list is objective so there's no point in arguing about this in the comments section...

Why would anything recent be in the running for "greatest of all time" yet? You've got to let things marinate, digest and demonstrate their longevity, influence and unique power. You won't even feel the same about most stuff you love in your teens and twenties, in your 30's and 40's, even if you still enjoy it.

How about moebius whole work? In my opinion (although I haven't really read that many comics) these were the best I've ever seen. Franco-belgian comics in general are my favorites but this one just sticks out. The artwork is fantastic, although he uses some motives very often and it feel like a repeat, but it's still super detailed and unique and creative. The stories are also very artsy and unique, he really creates his own universes.

+cloberpot Eightball is a tremendous comic series. It's an anthology of short stories. Some of it feels like David Lynch, some of it feels like it could be from Animaniacs or something. It blew my mind, growing up in the 90's, and it was a huge influence on me as a creator. Robert Crumb is amazing too. Watch Crumb, the movie. It's considered one of the best documentaries ever made. And if you hate Carl Barks duck comics you hate all the brilliant things it inspired, like the Indiana Jones movies. As for Maus, you might think it's "meh", but it's the only comic ever to win the Pulitzer Prize. This is a very good list, I'd say. And little of it is obscure in any real sense.

Nick- totally agree with your top ten choice. I was born in 1947 so actually remember the great comic book burnings etc. Worked at a book store in late 60s early 70s convinced my boss to buy hundreds of dollars worth of undergrounds. Still have over 500- actual first editions. As you and others know they printed zap etc. as long as there was a market. Some guys can tell paper changes and staple changes etc. Anyway looks like you are doing a great job. I can not deal with much internet or digital stuff. Had to get computer for medical reasons.

This is a great list, thank you for presenting it. Really happy for the Carl Barks addition even though I am a Don Rosa fan. I find it obvious that certain comics such as Hellblazer, Sandman, Transmetropolitan, The Invisibles, Animal Man etc. did not make the list as they are somewhat limited in their breadth, whereas many of the ones mentioned span over long periods of time and are truly important pieces for the industry. Please make more lists, would love to hear about some lesser known comics/novels, perhaps a B-side. Steve Brule ftw. Personally I would have added Grant Morrisons and all his great work, especially in The New 52 but as well his early and personal work.

Could you recommend any reputable source for appraisal? I'm from CT. Btw Mad Magazine most definitely was the best! There was an issue in early 60's with a detachable very thin vinyl record of burping accompanied with silly music. We had great fun playing it in the caf during lunch in junior h s. I've collected old stuff throughout my life, but not comics. Thanks.

Read more than ten EC comics (not stories, comics...not best of collections, comics) in a row. You'll know why they aren't on the list.

They aren't on the list cuz they're hack stories. Most of them are ripped off from hack radio shows. Embrace embarrassing hack material at your own peril and avoid mentioning nerdiness while lobbying to have your favorite comics put on a comic book list.

wait if you think superheroes shouldn't be portrayed by adults in the movies, who should they be portrayed by? and how should the movies be made? I'm curious what you think.

Seu Marvete! I'm wondering here, is this supposed to be sarcastic? he mentions really good comics. But he didn't included watchmen or sandman or Akira or Jodorowski's work with Moebius, so I'm wondering if it's sarcastic... Or maybe he didn't included these comics in this list because he's one of those comics purists who says that comics are different than graphic novels that are different from manga that are different from eurocomics... but in the end, it's all comics, so... guess what? He's wrong, haha, douchebag!

It's a top ten list of the most important, not an endless list of every good comic. I also stayed within American comics history for this one. Getting into comic strips and international comics would have been too complicated. Those might have to be their own videos.

Uh, Scrooged? I think Hellblazer or Moebius rank a little higher than Scrooged or Jimmy Olsen/campy Batman era shit...

Nicholas Gazin This makes sense... but I'm telling you, Akira, Watchmen and Sandman are way more important than the comics he mentioned in this video, maybe not for US alone, although I disagree with that (if not for Watchmen, TDK wouldn't have existed, if not for Akira, forget the popularization of the whole scifi genre). Mad, Crumb and even Maus falls flat in comparison. By the way, you made me wonder, why he didn't included Will Eysner's works? If not for Eysner, forget the whole graphic novel genre, including Maus.

I know it's cliche at this point, but I don't understand how you can have a "Top comics of all time" list and not have an Alan Moore comic on there. Watchmen, V, Swamp Thing, ANYTHING..

I’m not into most of the Alternative comics in this list except for Crumb and the Hernandez Brothers, I’d have put Chris Ware’s Acme Novelty Library on this list and Will Eisner’s The Spirit, plus Alan Moore’s Watchmen & Otto Binder & C.C. Beck’s Captain Marvel stories plus Jack Cole’s Plastic-man.

I know I’m Nothing compared To all the other comments, But I absolutely feel that he is correct with this list of top 10. Hernandez bro’s; Daniel clowes, r. Crumb, and Mad magazine. These are the essential pieces of literature that helped me mold into the person I am today. And I wouldn’t change that for the world!
