Don't do that. It doesn't actually teach you anything about comics. The first comics were just short, independent stories with little character development. There are thousands of little known characters. And thousands of characters that are little known to some, but not us. This is a company which published thousands of titles for over 80 years. And it's also several other companies. You can't get into it by starting at #1 like one would with, say, Naruto or The Walking Dead.

Instead, look for a character you want to learn more about and see if we've got Recommended Reading on it. 90% of everything is crap, and you'd waste a lot of money on that, which would spoil any enjoyment you wish to have.
