Reading comics can be an expensive hobby, especially if you're reading them as they come out every week. And reading week to week can make it difficult figuring out which series are truly great, and which are just okay. Thats why a lot of comic book readers wait for the trades, so they can save a little bit of money and hear what other readers think of the story before spending their money.

But even thats not a perfect system. Not every great story gets collected as a trade, and with DC and Marvel printing more books than any one person could read between just them, the decision of which series to follow and which to skip means you're bound to miss out on some great stories every now and again.

And that’s a shame, because there are some phenomenal books being published right now that deserve more attention.

So whether you're got a little extra change in your pocket, just dropped a series that didn't turn out how you hoped, or are just looking for something new and engaging to read, here are the amazing comic books that you're (probably) ignoring.

10. Ghost-Spider

If you loved Gwen Stacy from 2018's Into the Spider-Verse, then this is the perfect series for you. The first two Spider-Gwen series focused on Gwen struggling to change her public image after Spider-Woman was blamed for the death of her best friend Peter Parker, the Lizard, causing her to be seen as a murderous criminal.

Eventually Gwen managed to shake this bad rap and adopted the infinitely cooler monicker, Ghost-Spider. This is were the new Ghost-Spider series written by Seanan McGuire and drawn by Takeshi Miyazawa, picks up. Now with the citizens of her dimension's New York seeing her as a hero, Gwen has to balance her life as a superhero with her time as member of the rock band the Mary Janes.

Recently Gwen even made the decision to go back to school, but instead of attending college in her own dimension where her identity is public knowledge, she hops over to Earth 616 during the day, allowing us to see the character be a butt kicking superhero and a normal college student.
