    Requiem for the Wreckers.

    Dinobots Salvation.

    This is a good question as one off issues are often of dubious quality but there are some good things out there.

    Cause one shot is all he needs!!

    Nah, for real I don't know. I'd really need to think about it. Do you mean a completely self-contained story that has no ties to established characters, cause that's really hard to think of.

    For example, I love "Batman: The Killing Joke" and "Wolverine: The Jungle Adventure" but those are connected to long running characters.

    I'd think those count. It's hard enough to market a one shot without it having some tie to larger continuity.

    "Wolverine: The Jungle Adventure", one of the first Marvel one-shot comics I read growing up, and just a fun Logan adventure in the vein of an Edgar Rice Burroughs Pellucidar story. Mike Mignola's art works very well with that type of genre.

    I probably wasn't the only one who thought at first that Daken was the son Logan sired in this book.
