Top 10 Comic Book Cities

According to The Architect’s Journal, the self-dubbed “home of British architecture,” the list of the top 10 comic book cities should not include Kurt Busiek’s Astro City or Frank Miller’s Sin City. It should also not place Gotham or Metropolis in the top spot, nor Marvel’s New York. No, the top comic book city of all time, according to them, is apparently Judge Dredd‘s Mega City One.

What say you, my fellow comic book geeks? What city in comics are you most fond of? And do you think that this list is good, on the whole, or bad? Let me know in the comments.

My vote would be for the city in the Transmetropolitan comic.

Thanks for stopping by, Nick. I haven’t read Transmetropolitan. Is it worth picking up? Can you recommend a particular storyline to start off with?
