In her book, The Norton Introduction to Literature, Kelly J. Mays defines the canon as "the range of works that a consensus of scholars, teachers, and readers of a particular time and culture consider 'great; or 'major.'" Finding what the consensus defines as "great" or "major" is exactly what this project sets out to do. By aggregating 655 individual "Greatest Comics" list into a cohesive rank, this is possibly the largest collection of critical opinions on sequential art all in one place.
Your immediate reaction might be to say "Watchmen! Done, easy." but I wanted to delve deeper than that, find other stories and comics that everyone holds to a higher degree. On this site you'll find the 200 most critically acclaimed comic books of all time and some information about each of them. Whether you want to start reading for the first time after watching a new super hero movie or you've been reading since Action Comics #1, I hope there's something of value you can find from this collection.
