Wow, you guys spend a lot on comic books - I always try to stay focused on my favorite books AND get the most important stuff to be able to talk about the main events (like Civil War).
My current list:
DC: Legion, Titans (think about leaving), 52->Countdown, JSA and JLA (to get the Legion buzz there), Brave and the Bold, Justice
Marvel: Ultimate Squadron Supreme (or whatever the title is called), Squadron Supreme, Amazing Spiderman, New Avengers, Avengers Initiative, X-Factor
Image: Noble Causes, Dynamo 5
Indies: Everything Giffen does for BOOM -> Hero Squared, Planetary Brigade, Dominion
Lots of Ebay buying recently cause US comics are cheap on German Ebay -> Runaways TPBs, Millers Daredevil, JSA, Authority, Fables...

DC: Green Lantern, Green Lantern Corps, Legion of Super-Heroes.

Well, as I've said, I split a large comic book collection with my father and brother, so although I have the power to drop titles usually, there are cases where my dad or brother wants to keep collecting so we don’t. But I do stop reading. So here’s the ones I’ve stopped buying, or just reading:
Flash – I hate this comic more than anything else right now. Nightwing Robin Outsiders Batman Confidential Hawkgirl – ending Firestorm – ending Mystery in Space – ending Tales of the Unexpected - ending
Ms. Marvel – dropped Wolverine: Origins – dropped Ant-Man – dropped Heroes for Hire – dropped
For me: After the recent drop of a few:
Here’s basically what my pull list would look like DC 52 Countdown Detective Comics Batman Catwoman Superman/Batman Superman Action Comics Supergirl Supergirl & the Legion of Super-Heroes Wonder Woman Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis Green Lantern Green Lantern Corps Green Arrow Birds of Prey Atom Blue Beetle Justice League of America Justice Society of America JSA Classified Teen Titans Outsiders Shadowpact Checkmate All-Star Superman All-Star Batman & Robin the Boy Wonder Jonah Hex The Spirit Dr. Fate – will get Booster Gold – will get
Marvel Fantastic Four Captain America Iron Man Amazing Spider-Man Sensational Spider-Man Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Daredevil She-Hulk Hulk Black Panther New Avengers Mighty Avengers Avengers: Initiative Young Avengers Runaways Thunderbolts Astonishing X-Men Uncanny X-Men X-Men X-Factor Nova Ultimate Fantastic Four Ultimate Spider-Man Ultimates 2 Thor – will get Starlord – will get
Independents Fallen Angel Powers Kurt Busiek's Astro City (when its published)
Vertigo Fables Y: the Last Man
Meaning to pick up Walking Dead – now that Scott has given me the first trade to read Cable/Deadpool – because I feel I owe it to Reboot at this point Lone Ranger – looks cool
I probably left something out, as just as I was typing this, work went into crisis mode…

I had a lot of mini-series ended during the year. That helped my budget.

LIMITED RUNS OF ONGOINGS
1. The Brave and the Bold - 2 issues to go (for me)!
LIMITED SERIES
1. Countdown - tho' i'm looking at cutting this out already & trade-wait 2. All-Star Superman - the only Supes comic I can stand right now 3. Amazons Attack - completist that I am I'll get it til #6, but the story's so-so
HCs/TPBs 1. Jack of Fables vol 2 2. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Black Dossier - when it finally comes out :-/ 3. Absolute Sandman vol 2 - coming this October!!!! 4. Any new "Y-The Last Man" TPs 5. Any new "Fables" TPs
I've cut back a lot from 1 year ago. Guess I've already gotten mainstream DCU fatigue with the crossovers and the event minis.

Up till about a month ago I only read Marvel, but I have gotten severly tired of it (I use to read DC but went back to Marvel after Morrison's run ended on New X-Men)
So I have gotten rid of alot of the titles I usually get and now I am only getting...
X-Men New X-Men Astonishing X-Men (when it comes out) Supergirl and the Legion of Super-Heroes (I just started 2 days ago so I have to #11 and getting the rest of the series tomorrow)
I want to start collecting more DC titles so I am thinking I might get
Teen Titans and the Justice League, are there any really good series that I should get?

Green Lantern and Green Lantern Corps are both excellent. And be sure to also pick up the Green Lantern: Sinestro Corps special, a good jumping-on point for a newcomer.
