Some comic books I'd recommend:
- "American Vampire" - A Vertigo (an imprint of DC Comics) that features a new species of vampires that originates in the United States. Unlike traditional vampires, they are not vulnerable to sunlight and wood doesn't bother them. The first issues feature a backup story written by Stephen King.
- The New 52: DC Comics has recently done a (per Wikipedia) soft reboot of its entire universe and restarted the numbering of all of its series at #1. This has been called "The New 52." I haven't read all of the #1 issues, but for me the ones that I've enjoyed the most are: Action Comics, Detective Comics, Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Justice League, and Superboy.
- X23: Released by Marvel Comics. X23 is a female clone of Wolverine who was brought up to be nothing more than a machine designed for assassination. Now, she is on a quest to gain her humanity (if it is even possible). For me, her first miniseries (that shows how she came to be) is excellent.
