Character of the Month

Earlier this year, Chris over at the Collected Comics Library introduced me to the concept of "adopting a character" for the year, where you basically just pick a character and then read/learn everything you can about him/her throughout the year. I decided to go with Daredevil in 2009... and then proceeded to read everything I could by around mid-February. I really like that idea though, so I think I'm going to try a "Character of the Month" theme here at the Comic Book Manifesto. I'll do some reviews for all the character's trades that I have, and try to pick up one or two books featuring that character that I haven't read before. It should be fun.

So, I'm thinking May will be Wolverine month, with Hugh Jackman sporting the claws on the big screen May 1. But that leaves April wide open. So what do you guys think? Batman? Superman? Spider-Man? Maybe some team books like Justice League or Avengers? I'm wide open to suggestions on this one.

And come back later today for thoughts on today's books.
