Completely unsurprisingly, Birds of Prey! I had been reading it in trades, then eventually it got to the point where I needed to know what was happening next as soon as I possibly could. BoP 98 was the first comic I ever bought new. Before that I had a bunch of various nearly a longbox of back-issues, but when I started buying new comics I had to admit to myself that I was hooked and that I was probably in this for the long haul. That book came out in early September 2006. By the end of the month I was working part-time at my LCS; I worked there until about a month ago. Most of the money just went back to the store to feed my comics habit.
(I will note that BoP was not, actually, the first comic I fell in love with. It was just the first that I fell in love with that was still ongoing.)
