been curating out stuff I don't care about/crap. I'm a lot happier with my collection than I used to be. its easier to pick from these days.
>>
>>151121803
I'm not defending OP but...

>>About a half dozen Millar books including freaking Wanted
I only see 3. Hyperbole isn't warranted.

>>Azbats Batman
It's more peculiar to only see the final portion of a much longer storyline but I just assumed the rest was out of frame. Azbats was interesting from the perspective that DC editorial showing the fans a more edgy 90's Batman character during the heyday of these types of stories and "subtly" showing the audience why it doesn't work.

>>DC's Finest instead of Batman Year 1 Ten Nights of the Beast and Killing Joke as individual trades
How is this a criticism? DC Finest restored the original colors to "Killing Joke" and the last time "Ten Nights..." had a standalone trade was 1996. I'd prefer an omni but DC Finest is fine enough.

>>Shitty X-Men crossovers (mutant massacre, FOTM, Age of X)
Mutant Massacre was okay.

>>Random Legion trades
Yeah... odd to only have part 2.

That seems to be a theme with OP's collection... Legion 2, Swamp Thing 3, Crossing Iron Man, late stage Cap, Authority 2, Batman Knightquest, JLA Detroit, Ultimates 2 part 2.

Damn... is this rage bait? Start a fucking story OP!
>>
>>151122191
Before the Darkness 1 pretty much sold out on its release so I would assume OP never got a chance to buy it and had to settle for part two, which is still in print.
>>
>>151122191
The Millar books the poster sees are Big Game, Wanted, Authority Book 2, and Ultimates 2 V2. So technically the four books by Millar
>>
Is the Plasko Swamp Thing run worth reading? Keep getting told that the last couple of issues are important to setting up the Moore run but nothing about the start of the run...
>>
Given that the Masterwork line is now dead, will prices start going down on the secondary market? Been wanting to to get into it for several books but prices for some of the volumes are just to freaking insane...
>>
>>151122681
It's not important at all.
>>
>>151121533
Why do you always make these threads when I'm between orders.
>>
>>151122681
Plasko introduces Liz Tremayne (crappy spelling), who basically is "what if Sarah Jane Smith gets driven bat shit insane and turned into a lesbian by a MRA psycho". That and the last couple of issues set up the Moore run, with Matt and Abby returning, Matt's Psychic powers being established, and was the first person to write Arcane as being a big themed mad scientist. It's worth reading IMHO and a lot of the stuff from the Moore run will seen hollow without the context from the Plasko run

Are any of the early X-Men crossovers any good? Any recommendations?
>>
>>151122262
Just seems like OP only buys the follow up books to better series. If you miss the boat each time... maybe change your gameplan.

>>151122667
I must have missed one. Yeah, all mediocre books.

>>151122714
The opposite. When titles go OOP they only get more expensive.
>>
>>151124083
>Are any crossovers any good?
No.
>>
>>151124083
Mutant Massacre is the first and really only one of worth.

Fall of the Mutants had almost no structure, just a bunch of barely connected vignettes. Inferno was... interesting but kind of ruined Cyclops for a lot of fans. X-tinction Agenda was dull. Muir Island was a mess. X-Cutioner's Song was okay... better than it had any right to be. Fatal Attractions is really only memorable for the climax. Phalanx was awful.

Some recent purchases.

Currently reading Swamp Thing by Moore for the first time, I heard about the return of Arcane years before, but it was still surprising to me, also I enjoyed the issues with Etrigan, always nice to see him pop up in books.
I am also reading the Bendis Ultimate Spider-Man, I got the urge to finally finish it after showing my nephew the video game. I'm still mad about how Gwen dies, she just moves in with May and Peter and doesn't really do much until the lead-up to her death. I think she could have replaced JJJ as the human antagonist after his slight change of heart in the second Kingpin arc.
Also, I have been reading Daredevil by Ann Nocenti, really loved that issue with Mephisto in the bar. If the second half of this run ends strong, I would place this run in my top 3 Daredevil runs.
>>
>>151127608
more info on that spiderman pickup? I've been trying to find some spiderman stories to grab but it seems like he doesnt have many TPB sized storylines. I'm afraid to shoot for a random omnibus.
>>
>>151127782
That one deals with Harry Osborn in a big way. I passed on it myself because I think I already have too many Spidey books but I heard it sold out really quickly because marvel is shit at printing enough stock.
>>
>>151125636
Same boat. I'm actually having an easier time digging up old singles.
>>
>>151127884
I think that's what makes a lot of this annoying. There's so many trades and epics I need to fill the gaps that go for sky high but are really cheap to just get the issues.

It's the famed DeMatties run with the death of Harry Osborn

The only thing you really need to know is that there is a MASSIVE (about four years worth of stories) that take between Astonishing X-Men #12 and #13. Pretty much everything from UXM #444/X-Men #157 through X-Men #203/UXM #490 and five major crossovers (House of M, Decimation, Civil War, Anhiliation, World War Hulk) take place between those two issues/V2-3 of Astonishing X-Men.

What's the best version of Crisis on Infinite Earth's to buy?

Only one issue is drawn by Brendan McCarthy. Chris Bachalo is the main arist and he develops his style aross the run so it's fun to see his evolution and starting around issue 20 it's the best it's ever looked. Most if the other fill ins are also good except for a handful but even those aren't awful.

People don't seem to be buying much.

Not really. It's super early Peter Milligan, woke as fuck (one of the first arcs is about a woman getting crap for loving a black man), transgenderism heavily pitched as the future, and lots of "America is racist and evil" from a writer who only became famous due to American comic book fans. And that's not counting the ending controversy; where #50 is the real ending and Milligan being forced to undo said ending and churn out a half assed continuation that was so bad it got the book cancelled.

Starts out decent but the series quickly became stuck trying to keep popular characters around and alive and the G infamous Punisher the 'Nam years that were designed to try and boost sales.

The whole thing ultimately has no ending (it was supposed to wrap up with the fall of Saigon) and the writer infamous gave a huge rant in the 90s basically shitting all over Marvel for yanking it from the newstands and making it direct market only early in the run for while sales collapsed on it, as it was a huge seller in the early days

The DC Finest versions will probably be the most complete but I don't know how many volumes it will take and when they'll all be out
>>
>>151133709
So are DC's Finest like Marvel's Epic collections that they'll be released pretty randomly instead of collecting one series in order one release after another? Like what's their tactic here?

Got a couple of new Big Greens for my /a/ shelf over the weekend, if that counts
>>
>>151134242
yes though I think DC does it a bit better because they order by year rather than volume number. The thing about western comics is that very often you really don't need to read volume 1 to understand volume 27. Hell a lot of readers will probably have very different levels of nostalgia. So I think DC is a bit smarter this way were someone can go "I want Batman from 1985 because that's when I read it" and they won't have a giant volume number reminding them how incomplete things are

It's the greatest hits version of post JOSS Superman for those just curious about the era. IIRC it only has the opening Loeb arc that introduces Inperialax, the Brainiac 2000 arc that introduces Brainiac 13 and sees Lex sell his daughter to him for future tech, the President Luthor arc, and everything OWAW related leading up to Kansas getting nuked. No Emperor Joker

The only good stuff about PAD Supergirl was the first nine issues, which is the initial arc that OAD pitched when Supergirl was supposed to be a mini.

Everything after the first arc was PAD making shit up as he went along and it kept getting more and more convoluted until DiDio put his foot down, killed the book and ordered a version of Pre Crisis Supergirl introduced to end the farce of the various not Supergirls...

I’d say the start of his Hulk run was a pretty egregious offense.

That's alright. It's all my fault. I've been here a long time, so I should know when it's best to post certain threads and how to make them more appealing. I'm thinking of going away for a while and doing a bunch of research.
As for those comics, I don't like all of them, but appreciate the type. Post-Bronze Age, it's the direction I think all superhero comics should have gone. With a mainstream output that's somewhat at the level of those, we'd probably be reading some good non-cape stuff today, something I can't even imagine.

Titan has the rights now and they are continuing the line where Marvel left off. They wanted to make the transition as smooth as possible, so they kept all the logos and the format largely the same.
>>
>>151147726
I think the issue is that one of the reasons people hate PAD is that they want Xfactor to be as important as X-Men and Xforce, Lorna and Alex as a power couple, Rhahne interacting with Xforce, and Quicksilver being a dad and interacting with Crystal, Wanda, and his fellow Avengers. Not having the team stick in limbo, garbage send ups to garbage writer Steve Gerbers garbage elf with a gun gag, and Rhahne being reduced to a horny wolf mutant that just wants to fuck Alex

Atleast, there's still Aparo's Artist Edition coming this month.

It starts off decently enough, but after the second arc dealing with the "American Nightmare" (sans Cody), Milligan starts to lose the thread and just goes full on weird. And not the interesting kind, just boring.

And this is the same guy who penned a zero issue for the Red Lanterns with fucking Eldritch elements ala Clive Barker that might be one of the best single issue comics that I've ever read
>>
I saw a bunch of comic books (TPBs) in a charity shop, Krakoa era X-Men, bought them all for a very cheap price. I've read most of the Claremont run, the Morrison and Whedon stuff, and that Messiah War event. I wanted to see where X-Men had gotten to, especially considering the amount of kvetching anons did over the Krakoa era. Boy was some of that stuff just weird.

I think it also got a page decrease? It was originally supposed to have the first fifty issues but now the page count is around 736 I think? If that was the case, why not just do it as a DC Finest or a compendium?

Problem is that they're still listing it was originally

Shrinkflation.

They might even release it with thin paper.

>>151152858
>Problem is that they're still listing it was originally
The original page count/number was just a rumour and not an official solicit. 736 is not a bad page count for an omni. Of course they will be bad on price because they always do that.
>Volume 1 collects 1st Issue Special #8 and The Warlord #1-36, with a brand-new introduction and painted, wraparound cover by Grell.
Although with 133 issues to collect (plus more if they want) I don't necessarily see this getting to the 4 volumes it might need.
>>
I keep seeing pics of that Ostrander Spectre Omni and starting to think holding out for Finest was a mistake.

Same deal with the Question omnis
>>
>>151153038
I think they're mainly collecting Grell's run (he announced roughly two omnis I think?). The book lasted long after he stopped writing it
>>
>>151153038
The real issue is if they only collect the issues Grell actually wrote, as the last two years of his "run" wwre ghost written by his wife.
>>
>>151152858
>It was originally supposed to have the first fifty issues but now the page count is around 736
Warlord was weird in that a part of the book had back up stories. If it's omitting those then a lower page count isn't weird.

I'm here again. Are you guys tired of my shelf? I've had the 3 Invincible compendiums in softcover for years. Considering getting the hardcovers as a Christmas gift to upgrade. Worth it? But I also saw they're doing an omnibus in April that has the same material as the first compendium plus the Marvel Team Up issue with Spider-Man. Not sure if I should wait. I do have the trade that has that Team Up issue though. I also need to take a new pic. This is almost 2 years old.

NTA 736 is more or less the perfect page count for an omni, imo. The Master of Kung Fu omnis are all in that range and their a pleasure to read.

There was a box set of two volumes that contained the early early stuff. I don't know if it's still in print or how rare it is. I have it. It's nice. I guess there was a hardcover version but I missed on that.

And here's were I'd collect Saga 9. IF I HAD ONE! Or the legends one. Though I'm not too fussed over that one. It's all spinoffs. Which are good but not so pressing.

>>151154819
The mini doesn't feature any X-Men in it (Claremont only put him on the team as a favor to Nocenti due to her wanting to drum up support for a second mini) and it's moderately decent though, to be frank, it reeks of the sort of "comic that is a stealth movie pitch" shit you see from Image. And the ending is depressing as fuck given what we ultimately find out happened to poor Rita and Longshot

Who hurt Rick Remender? Between the end of this and the last few issues of Deadly Class he comes across so bitter at something I the reader can't control. Has he got any comics that don't feel like he woke up on the wrong side of the bed and decided to end it all?

Bendis and Hickman fucked him over big time and then some when he wrote Uncanny Avengers and editoral IE Brevoort told him he deserved to be raped, due to the sin of Remender repudiating Avengers Disassembled

Normally I'd defend Remender, but then I also remember that Remender DESPISES Hank Pym and was responsible for the decade long hellish rape of the character that was Pymtron and everyone and their mother openly telling Pym how much they secretly always hated his guts and wished he would just die already. So I don't feel sorry for him.
