I've been into comics as long as I can recall. They were the first thing that got me reading the newspaper. Favorites have included Calvin and Hobbes, Jules Pfeiffer, Berke Breathed, Doonesbury and The Far Side (I am unable to endorse any definition of comics that excludes The Far Side). My dad had Pogo and some old best-of collections from Mad magazine, and my grandfather had a Sad Sack collection, all of which I reread voraciously. I also read some Tintin and Asterix.
I became consciously interested in comics in high school (thanks, RARD!). First, X-Men (especially 168 up to the to early 200s) and other Marvel and a little DC. Then American Flagg, Elfquest, Cerebus, Sandman, and much other "alternative" (non-superhero) stuff, and late Stanley and his Monster, Bone and Strangers in Paradise. Watchmen stands out as a classic different take on superheroes.
Wasn't as into comics then for a number of years, but webcomics, especially A Miracle of Science and Sinfest got me into it again. I appreciate webcomics as a way for independent comics to flourish. I recommend Understanding Comics (Scott McCloud) to prompt thinking about comics in general, even though I don't agree with everything he says. For [[recursion]] bonus points, it is itself a comic.
