I used to be almost exclusively DC, but slowly but surely the Marvel titles kept creeping in. I've dropped a lot of titles that just didn't interest me anymore.
Now I just need somewhere to put them . . .

Welcome newbie....

9. Batman Adventures
8. Batman
7. Oh My Goddess!
6. Promethea
5. Detective Comics
4. Catwoman
3. Age of Bronze

I actually buy almost every DC Archive that comes out as well, and that's basically monthly. Those are actually my favorite comic item..that I must have.

Planetary, Hellboy, Bone, Ultimate Spidey and Powers are books I love. But I only buy them in collected form or they come out a little too infrequently....so to me they don't really count.

Hmmm... don't even know if I have 10...

Batman
Detective Comics
Power Company
Green Arrow

Edit: forgot about Gotham Central. [woooOOOOoooo!]

Those are the only ones that really matter a lot to me besides the SW titles... but I'm looking forward to a lot of the minis DC has in these upcoming months. JSA All-Stars, Human Defense Corps, Arkham Asylum, Graduation Day...

Amazing Spider-Man is an absolute must now. Otherwise JSA Allstars, 411, and JLA are hot on my list.

I still buy X-Statix monthly, but that's about it. I usually pick up Gotham Central when it gets discounted.

Other than that, I go in spurts and follow creators, and I try to only buy singles if I can get them for less than cover price.

I used to be a DC chickie, but in the last year or two Marvel has had a few really great titles, Top 10 in no particular order:

Alias
Batman
Detective Comics
Ruse (though its not as good as it was when it first came out) [sad]
Catwoman - this series is completely underrated
Fables
Y: the Last Man
Hulk (ever since Bruce Jones took over, this title has kicked ass)
Ultimate Spidey

Ok, that's 10, but there are those I didn't take into account bc. they aren't ongoings - they are maxi series - i.e., Rising Stars, Batgirl: Year One, etc.

Also, PJP - you cheated! You must be dri=unk cuz you listed more than ten! I know, counting is tough when you are seeing double! [mwah hwah haa]

The only current series that I'm reading right now is Doom Patrol, and I usually wait a couple of weeks before even getting that from my comic shop (the place is a ways away from me). I've been getting New X-Men, Authority, JSA and Planetary in trade paperbacks.

Other than that, there's not a whole lot worth reading out there right now, IMO. But then, I'm an old codger and my tastes are considerably different than you young whippersnappers :)

My only titles for now are ...

~ Promethea ... soon to end metaphysical wandering with issue 32 *sigh*
~ Sojourn ... came for the winged Ankharans, stayed for the quest
~ Hawkman ... mostly for Rags Morales' art, and Kendra's ass!
~ Aria (current miniseries) ... fell for Kildare long ago, that ancient-modern fae
~ Astro City (current miniseries) ... Kurt Busiek makes great stories
~ The Legion ... with issue 19, the art is superb again

I am a poor college student, so the top 10 list is a little thin
1. Catwoman-agreed, underrated.
2. Batman
3. Uncanny X-men-call my a dork, but they just brought back Jubilee, and she was the reason I started reading Marvel
4. League of Extrodinary Gentlemen
5. Lucifer-I've been picking up the TPB's, does that count?

All for now, although I rifle through and grab odd stuff if I have the funds

The Flash
Y: The Last Man
JSA
Teen Titans
Captain Marvel
Incredible Hulk
Spider-Girl
The Punisher
