7. Animal Man

Jeff Lemire and Travel Foreman (plus all the other artists that came after) crafted an Animal Man story that stands as one of the best the character's ever appeared in. And when Grant Morrison's run is your competition, that is SAYING SOMETHING.

Animal Man follows actor turned superhero Buddy Baker, a man with the power to tap into The Red. Using this, he can take on the abilities of any animal as he sees fit.

Lemire's run focuses on Baker's family and his role as avatar of the Red, a role which he knows he can't hold forever. As the evil force known as the Rot begins to conquer all, Baker tries to keep his family safe, but what role is his daughter destined to play in this? READ THE DARN BOOK.

Also, the three or four issues spread throughout the run showing the hit movie Baker starred in, "Tights", are also fantastic in a completely different way.
