We take a look back at the Top 10 most well reviewed titles found on Comic Book Roundup. They are a review aggregator and can give us a pulse on what is good or well received in the modern comic collector community. Despite not reading some (or many) of these, we give our opinions where we can and joke in others. Enjoy

Obviously this list will not include raw book data of which there may be many, but based upon slabbing preferences we may be able to notice what books are collected and preserved at a higher rate.
