So over on She Has No Head! I mentioned that two categories, “Best Cover” and “Best Single Issue” were incredibly hard to decide this year thanks to an influx of great stuff I had trouble deciding between. As a result I decided to do a top 25 “Best Single Issues” for 2011 on 1979. As I noted on She Has No Head! there are some notable absences here, largely due to gaps in my reading. Off the top of my head I’d say the most glaring absences are DMZ, Scalped, and Daredevil, all of which I am significantly behind on. Because I have written about almost all of these issues elsewhere, I’m not going to do paragraphs on each of them. You can find detailed CBR Reviews for 17 of the 25 below at this link. And if you have questions about any other titles I didn’t do reviews for, just ask and I’ll be happy to talk about them in the comments.
All that said…these are my “25 Best Single Issues of 2011″…
