52 Weeks of Reading Recommendations by Dennis O’Neil
When ComicMix launched a year ago, we were especially pleased to include the legendary Dennis O’Neil as one of our regular columnists. Denny has written and/or edited every major character in comics, including Batman, Spider-Man, Daredevil, Superman, Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Iron Man, the Question, Azrael, and Millie the Model.
Back in the day, when comics had letter columns, Denny would usually share his reading preferences with readers. We’re delighted to have continued this tradition here on ComicMix in Denny’s weekly columns.
To celebrate the last 52 weeks of Denny’s contributions to ComicMix, here’s a list of what he’s recommended so far, in the order he recommended them and with his thoughts on the recommendations (when he provided them). You’ll notice that, sometimes, he suggests the same book more than once. And sometimes, he suggests more than one book at a time. That’s the kind of reader Denny is — he takes his time, and he’s eclectic.
Good reading!

It is hard for me to write about politics without frothing at the mouth. A lot of commentators are entertained by the horse race – who’s ahead, who’s behind, who’s sprained a limb, who’s coming out of the pack in a surprise advance – but I can’t forget that elections affect jobs, healthcare, education, the environment, and for some people, it’s a life-or-death decision. Many are the times I’ve scared my cat by screaming at the television, either at a commentator’s remarks or at the President who inspired them.
