Brubaker's Best Work? 0

[ChrisInBaltimore]

So I've had a Brubaker filled weekend. Yesterday I re-read Sleeper Season one, and today I re-read all of Incognito. It got me thinking...

 

What is Brubaker's best work?

 

I'm hoping someone throws out something I've never read. I loved the first volume of Incognito but I feel the book wasn't as good in the second volume. I'm about to go find Sleeper Season 2, but I have it in issues so it might be difficult to find.

 

Thoughts? I'm sure Cap is going to get mentioned in here...

I love Sleeper.

His DD run was amazing, if you have not read that.

[gaz973]

Yeah, his Daredevil run was definitely worth checking out. (thumbs u

Daredevil

[bffnut]

Gotham Central.

[MrWeen]

Batman: The Man who Laughs

[Katchoo]

Criminal and Gotham Central.

[Vikingreed]

Criminal was really good as well.

 

I never read Gotham Central. I need to.

[Vikingreed]

So basically, read everything he's written, haha.

I've been looking for a complete run of Gotham Central for a long time. I love both Brubaker and Rucka and have to imagine it is a great book.

 

Daredevil run was pretty impressive. I've only read a portion of his Cap run and feel I should go back and read all of it.

 

I'm not a huge fan of Fatale. It started really well, but then just started to feel directionless. I dropped it a few months ago. I'm curious if I should re-read it to see if I was missing something.

Gotham Central, Daredevil, Sleeper in that order.

Daredevil in prison was great.

I haven't read much of his other stuff, but his DD was great!

[Garf]

Love Criminal!

[Paladin]

Fatale's pretty cool! I dug his work on Captain America as well. (thumbs u

[ThoseBackPages]

Not sure how stuff he didnt create would be his "best"

 

just seems strange to me.

My vote goes to Sleeper. Engaging and unputdownable.

Brubaker's good! Very solid and consistent. Haven't read everything he's done, but have read a good bit. My ranking:

 

1. FATALE

2. CRIMINAL

3. DD

4. GOTHAM CENTRAL

5. CAPTAIN AMERICA

6. SLEEPER

 

I like his collaborations with Sean Phillips the best (aside from SLEEPER). Still need to check out INCOGNITO.

The first 6 issues of Incognito are great, but if you don't like Sleeper I'm not sure... What don't you like about Sleeper?

I don't know...
