    The Unofficial TFW2005 6th Annual Best Comic Stories of 2010!

    Rules:
    1. Voting will run from January 1st, 2011 to January 10th, 2011
    2. Please select your favourite story arcs, mini-series, mangas, graphic novels or single issues/one shots that were released in 2010 - Try to list your top 3 (more is ok too), if not, whatever you can come up with works as well
    3. When voting, remember that the story must have concluded during 2010 - The story might start off strong but then go downhill in the last issue
    4. Please include the title of the story arc
    5. If you change your mind (after rereading the stories or someone mentions one you've forgotten about), please repost your picks. If you post multiple times, I will only count the last one
    6. Once the voting period ends, the most popular stories will be awarded 1st, 2nd and 3rd place

    If you're having trouble remembering what stories came out in 2010, check out the Preview Archive and be sure to read the notes at the top about the links.

    1. Blackest Night (I include the mini-series, Green Lantern, and Green Lantern Corps series in this as it seemed to be one big story between these books).
    2. Superman: Secret Origin
    3. I don't know on this, so I'll toss another vote for Darkwing Duck: The Duck Night Returns.
