Best Shots: The Best of 2019


Greetings, 'Rama readers! With 2019 in the rear view mirror, it's time for our end-of-the-year tradition with the Best of Best Shots 2019!

It's been a big year for the comics industry, with Marvel wrapping up its long-running arc in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Avengers: Endgame, topping Avatar as the highest-grossing movie of all time, while Disney's acquisition of Fox has meant the return of the X-Men and the Fantastic Four in the MCU; meanwhile, the House of Ideas made big swings in the comics sphere with brand-new runs of Jonathan Hickman's Dawn of X, Conan the Barbarian, and a post-Empire Star Wars, among others.

DC, meanwhile, concluded its long-running Doomsday Clock saga, while also heralding Brian Michael Bendis as the new steward of Superman and the Legion of Superheroes, revealing the Man of Steel's secret identity while bringing back the heroes of the 31st century. DC also had two big box office hits, starting with the coming-of-age superhero story Shazam!, before winning a Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival thanks to Joaquin Phoenix's haunting performance in Joker, all while announcing Robert Pattinson as its next Dark Knight in 2021's The Batman. Yet DC also had major shake-ups to its corporate structure, phasing out its long-running Vertigo line, while introducing its new Hill House horror imprint, spearheaded by Locke & Key creator Joe Hill.

Arguably the biggest story of the indie scene came from the announcement of Lion Forge merging with Oni Press, causing big shake-ups for both publishers. Meanwhile, several long-running Image Comics series wrapped up in 2019, including The Walking Dead, The Wicked + The Divine, East of West, Black Science, and more. Despite Disney's purchase of Fox curtailing a Mouse Guard film, BOOM! Studios continued to break new ground in 2019 with new series such as Once and Future and Something Is Killing The Children, climbing to a fourth-place spot for overall retail sales in December. Dynamite Entertainment, meanwhile, saw its seminal series The Boys score a massive hit with a live-action series on Amazon.

Yet there were unfortunate happenings in 2019 as well, including Mad Magazine publishing its final issue in December, IDW shutting down Shelly Bond's Black Crown imprint after two and a half years, while Bedside Press closed after admissions of sexual assault by the publisher's founder, Hope Nicholson. Furthermore, comics journalism lost a longtime champion with Tom Spurgeon, who passed away in November.

It's been a big year, but somebody's gotta cover it — so without further ado, let's kick off the Best of Best Shots 2019!
