I'd like some recommendations. Preferably something relatively new, so I don't have to go insane trying to get back issues...for now anyway. I know that is part of the fun, but I'd like to just get a feel for it first.

You've captivated me :P
If you're not a total completist, you can just get into a series of your choice and then buy the trade paperback every few months. For example, if you read Iron Man, you can wait a while and then Marvel release a compilation book of like the last five issues or something.

Also, Marvel.Com, for a price, gives you access to thousands and thousands of comics online. Kind of like iTunes for comics.

Message me on A.I.M. sometime and then I can get an idea of what you're into and recommend something suited to you.
