I think many of us have sought out titles based on reviews or discussions here. So I want to know what titles others have looked for. And also to thank the poster that got you interested in that title. For me a lot of codystarbuck reviews (thanks cody!) have made me look for several titles. Here are my top 3 I bought in the last year:

Restarted my Usagi Yojimbo love. Used to get as a monthly when it began but over the years had dropped or only picked up here and there. Once here in CCF began buying the Saga trades.
Others from reviews or discussions sparking my interest to track down or reminding me to look into:
Valerian
Corto Maltese
Charley's War
Carl Barks Library
Don Rosa Library
Win and Mortimer

I wasn’t aware there’d been an Elseworlds crossover between Supes and War of the Worlds until someone (probably Slam Bradley) recommended it. I bought the eBook.

Honestly, most of what I've read over the past 15 years has been determined by this community. I don't even know where to start!

I was almost entirely out of comics from 1986-2016, and my collection prior to that was all spinner rack material from the early 80s, so I had never heard of, well, most of comics. |

off the top of my head, ad I am sure there are so many more...
Guns of the Dragon
Bat Lash
the Grey Morrow issues of Madhouse
Corto Maltese
Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck
Brother Power the Geek
Dick Tracy strips
Popeye by Segar strips
Crimebusters
Le Bras D'Orion
I just ordered Matt Baker's Rhymes with Lust because of Crimebuster's Matt Baker spotlighting
like I said, that's off the top of my head, but there are probably lots more.

I've mentioned this before, but I was turned on to Doug Moench's pre-crisis Batman because of the "Batman From 1979 through whatever" thread. It's become one of my favorite Batman runs, and I just have two issues left to collect.
The "Star Wars At Marvel" thread got me to pick up some Walt Simonson and David Michelinie issues.
There's still some books I'm on the lookout for because of the "The Other Guys" thread. The one I'm most interested in getting my hands on is Hotspur.
There's a good chance this thread itself is going to cause my list to grow by at least one comic. Case in point: I'm about to google "Grey Morrow Madhouse"
