Without further ado:
10. The Flash
10. Writer(s): Joshua Williamson
Artist(s): Christian Duce/ Rafa Sandoval/ Scott Kolins
Current Issue: #84
The only book on the list that completed its 80th issue. This book was consistent from the very start. Even with some downhill ride, it went back up nonetheless. Williamson knows this character well and other characters surrounding Flash. This book has seen lots of change in artists but it doesn’t affect the story at all. Simply one of the finest DC comics of 2019.
9. Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen
Writer(s): Matt Fraction
Artist(s): Steve Lieber
Current Issue: #6
This book is fun. Sheer fun. I was really skeptical about this book but I enjoyed this book a lot. This book is just silly. You don’t have to take this book seriously. It does deal with some pretty serious stuff but embraces comedy to bring it right back to silliness. Also, Lieber’s art is funny, bright and neat.
8. The Green Lantern
Writer(s): Grant Morrison
Artist(s): Liam Sharp
Last Issue: #12
Fan of intergalactic police adventure? This book is for you. This book is Morrison-ny. If you’ve read any Morrison book then you know what I’m talking about. Also, Sharp’s detailed pencils will leave you in awe. They are a perfect team. Dealing with God, multiverse stuff, no big deal. Amazing read.
7. DCeased
Writer(s): Tom Taylor
Artist(s): Trevor Hairsine & Stefano Gaudiano with James Sharren
Last Issue: #6
Loved Marvel Zombies? Then you’re gonna love it. Didn’t liked Marvel Zombie? Then chances are you still gonna like it. Because it was focused on the thing that Marvel Zombies lacked: the emotion. The feeling that the reader gets when a loved character gets infected is just inexpressible. This book is must read.
6. Batman/ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III
6. Batman/ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IIIWriter(s): James Tynion IV
Artist(s): Freddie E Williams & Kevin Eastman
Last Issue: #6
I can’t tell you how much I love this book. If you loved the previous two books then this is absolutely for you. It has that nuance from the earlier two books and also adds something of its own. The art is spectacular. Story? Even better. Bat-family teaming up with Turtle Family, what do you need more?
5. Last Knight on the Earth
Writer(s): Scott Synder
Artist(s): Greg Capullo
Last Issue: #3
This is by far THE best Batman book of 2019. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where all hope is lost and Bruce Wayne is made to believe that there is no Batman. If you like Synder’s book then you know his potential. This 3- issue mini-series is just pure perfection. Don’t forget about the splendid art of Cipullo.
4. Hawkman
Writer(s): Robert Venditti
Artist(s): Bryan Hitch/ Pat Olliffe
Current Issue: #19
This book keeps getting better and better. Hawkman’s history was rippled throughout the history of comics. Therefore Venditti amazingly put every incarnation of Carter hall into a beautifully orchestrated story that tells the untold origin of Hawkman. Every aspect of this book is great. Storytelling, scaling, art, narration. Everything.
3. Curse of White Knight
Writer(s): Sean Murphy
Artist(s): Sean Murphy
Current Issue: #5
Direct sequel of Batman the White Knight. Batman The White Knight 
2. Doomsday Clock
2. Doomsday ClockWriter(s): Geoff Johns
Artist(s): Gary Frank
Last Issue: #12
December 18th. It marks the conclusion of this saga that has been told from the last 2 years as Doctor Manhattan has invaded the DC Universe. Even more, the suspicion is that he is behind the changes in history in the DC Universe. The main problem with this book was the delays in the release. But if you sit through and read the whole book in a single go then this is a beautiful love letter to the most beloved character in the history of comics.
1. Shazam!
1. Writer(s): Geoff Johns
Artist(s): Dale Eaglesman, Marco Santucci & Scott Kolins
Current Issue: #9
Another Geoff Jones book on the list, not surprising at all. Introduction to all the seven mystic lands, the relation between the Shazam family, the introduction of new and old foes, everything about this book was amazing. Switching art to differentiate between the world is also a masterpiece here. In my opinion, Geoff Jones is writing the script for Shazam 2 here.
