Can you recommend a few best DC cosmic stories for beginners?

Sure. 'The Call of Cthulhu' is a great start. It's very famous and has a simple yet terrifying concept. The idea of an ancient, powerful being that can drive people mad just by its existence is really spooky. Another one is 'The Colour Out of Space'. It's not too complex and gives a good taste of how cosmic horror plays with the unknown and the unearthly.

One of the best is 'Final Crisis'. It involves a multiverse - wide battle against Darkseid. The story has complex plotlines and shows heroes from different corners of the DC universe coming together. Another great one is 'The Sinestro Corps War'. It explores the conflict between the Green Lantern Corps and the Sinestro Corps, with amazing space battles and character development. And 'Blackest Night' is also a top pick. It features the return of dead characters as Black Lanterns, leading to intense battles and emotional moments for the heroes.

For beginners, I'd recommend 'The Ballad of Black Tom'. It has a more contemporary take on the classic Lovecraftian horror, which can be a bit more relatable. It also deals with social issues within the framework of the horror story, making it a bit more approachable. Also, 'The Only Good Indians' is good for new readers. It's not as convoluted as some other cosmic horror novels and the use of Native American mythology gives it a fresh and interesting angle.

'Nova' is another one that's good for newbies. It follows the story of Richard Rider as he becomes Nova and has to deal with threats in the cosmos. The character development is well - done, and it's easy to follow along as he discovers his powers and his place in the universe.

Sure. 'The Doctor's Secret Love' is a great start. It has a simple yet engaging plot that is easy to follow. It's a story about a doctor who has a secret love affair, and the way Jonaxx unfolds the story is really interesting.

Sure. 'The Monkey's Paw' is a great one for beginners. It's a short story that shows how a simple wish - granting device can bring about great horror. A family gets hold of a monkey's paw that can grant three wishes, but each wish comes with a terrible price.

Sure. 'Superman: Birthright' is a great start. It gives a modern take on Superman's origin story, easy to understand for beginners. Another one is 'Batman: Year One' which shows how Batman began his crime - fighting career in Gotham. It has simple yet engaging storytelling.

Sure. 'Batman: The Long Halloween' is a great start. It has a mystery - centered plot that's easy to follow and it gives a good look at Batman's world. It also has a great cast of characters from the Batman rogues gallery.

For beginners, 'Justice League: Origin' is a good pick. It introduces the major Justice League members and how they come together. The story is action - packed and straightforward. 'Harley Quinn: Preludes and Knock - Knock Jokes' is also fun. It gives an introduction to the character of Harley Quinn in a light - hearted way. And 'Aquaman: Throne of Atlantis' can be a good entry point as it showcases Aquaman in an exciting adventure.

You could also try 'The Tiger's Wife' by Tea Obreht. It has a richly detailed world with elements of myth and magic. The relationship between the main character and the stories she hears about the tiger's wife is full of mystery and wonder.
