The Onion’s Best Comics of the Decade
THE BEAT —
... The Onion’s month-long series of looks back gets to comics with 25 Best Comics and 5 Best Archival editions. As the first official, thought out “Best of” for the Aughts of Comics, it’s a solid list, if genre heavy…NO SCOTT PILGRIM? Really???? The book that summed up the decade’s mishmash of media and influences in comics form? And… NO MANGA? That’s seriously F’d…unless there is a separate manga list. ...
What's wrong with The A.V. Club's Best Comics of the '00s list?
Robot 6 @ Comic Book Resources - Covering Comic Book News and Entertainment —
... Earlier today, The A.V. Club, The Onion's for-serious arts and criticism auxiliary unit, released its list of the Best Comics of the '00s, featuring 25 comics/graphic novels and (separately) five reprint collections, ordered alphabetically. Now, it's just one of many media outlets producing lists of this sort as the decade draws to a close -- pretty soon, we'll be able to come up with a "Best 'Best Comics of the '00s' Lists" list -- and disagreement with such exercises is to be expected. Indeed, it's sort of the point. But I found The A.V. Club's list problematic in ways that go ...

... (6) The Onion A/V Club brings you a list of the best comics of the aughts. This article has been poked at a bit for having some gaping holes, but to be fair, these kinds of lists always have some kind of glaring omission. They are always deeply personal, and reflect the evolution of ones’ tastes, expectations, and preferences over a decade. Some of the books that I’d put on my personal list, like Planetary, Authority, or the New Frontier, reflect a period in which I was excited that mainstream superhero comics could tell a truly intelligent story. Others, like Box ...
