Detective Comics. So saying "DC Comics" is really just saying Detective Comics Comics.

I was thinking, since you seem to be good at this, do you know of any good torrent sites or whatever with lots of X-Men?
I am primarily looking for Gambit stuff, mainly the Gambit series.
bah, I told you I don't know torrent sites. you got one for TV eps up there. ZCultFM was a great comics tracker but it is currently down and plans to reopen in two days, on the 8th. When it does you can count on some good stuff being torrented there.

As for X-Men, I'll give a shout out to the X-Men stuff I have on hand at the moment.

New X-Men 114-154 (Grant Morrison's run)

This is famed author Grant Morrison's work on New X-Men. It deals with several new villains that Grant introduces to the book, including the vicious Cassandra Nova and a... surprise appearence late in his run. It's got the soap opera drama that X-Men tends toward, as Scott Summers' (Cyclops) marriage to Jean Grey starts to fray at the edges. There's everything from a murder mystery at Xavier's mutant school to aliens landing to a mutant cataclysm that changes the school forever.

I'd say very little background knowledge of the characters is needed to get into this, Morrison gives you the relevant backstory within the books themselves. While I personally think it had some serious flaws (such as the fact that Frank Quitley's shitty work ethic meant getting shitty fill-in artists for half of the early run), Grant knows how to write a good story. Try it. This is available on my file server.
