Why settle for indie when you have that sweet and gentle mainstream? Here’s some of the best of the heaviest hitters around.

First issues/arcs may stand in for entire volumes/series’.

Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" is one of my favorite series. It's heavily flawed, involves an incredible amount of Stephen King books that aren't labeled as "Dark Tower book", and it's soooooo many pages. (But I love it.)
