Personally i like it, I've always loved antiheroes and Spawn is their king.
True it does get a little confusing at times and it is an acquired taste.

Ultimte Wolverine VS Hulk (waiting for #3)

Yeah. You keep waiting for it. I don't see that coming out for a long time.


Bought Green Lantern: Rebirth, Batman: Year One and Batman: Hush vol.1.
Would have gotten 300 but it's sold out as far as I've heard. =(

 

[Vice]

Cant seem to sell Them

My shop ordereed 4 copies of the Frank miller GN but iv only been ably to sell the one. I thought it would have sold out.

Like 2 weeks ago Marvel posted that Wolverine Vs Hulk would come out in May, But it has yet to be shown in Previews. It'll never see the light of day

 

[antiformkeyblade]

i remember my local comic shop sold out of everything Frank Miller the week 300 came out. it was insane. its was so bad that almost half the Frank miller stuff was just stolen. its was epic. people running in all different directions with comics under their arms.

i got my hands of some rare Hellblazer comics online the other day. number 5-10. sweet.

 

[Johnny Stooge]

I feel sorry for the people who bought All-Star Batman and Robin. Frank Miller stuff isn't always good. Right now, I'm hesitant to buy Dark Knight Returns. I just know I won't like how Miller writes Superman and I've been told his Green Arrow is a bit of a d*ck.

Right now I'm looking to get some Green Arrow trades. Particularly Longbow Hunters, Quiver and Archer's Quest. But right now I need to get For Tomorrow vol.2 and Hush vol.2.
For Tomorrow is definately my favourite Superman story (as well as Birthright).

 

[Vice]

I think my Store has a copy of Hush Vol 2.

Im gonna have to double check on that later today.

Dark Knight Returns is really good. the artwork is a little meh for me. but the story is great.

 

[Covered in Bees]

The only FULL collection I own is Civil War, however, I do tend to attempt to read many different series at the same time.

Some series that I'm really into at the moment include:
-Civil War
-Invincible Iron Man
-Avengers: Initiative
-Omega Flight
-Dr. Strange: The Oath
-Thor: Eternals Saga

I'm also still waiting for Silver Surfer: Requiem to come out this may.

 

[Johnny Stooge]

I met Marv Wolfman and Alex Maleev. I have photos and will be posting them soon.
Had Maleev sign a Daredevil: Underboss trade and Wolfman sign a Crisis on Infinite Earths trade for the comic shop I work for. No DCU secrets though. =( Wolfman knows the end of 52 but won't tell and knows what the deal of Countdown is, but doesn't know the ending.

Also bought 300 and two Heroclix DC Origins boosters.
I love Supanova. xD

 

[Vice]

Totally cant wait til World war III comes out tomorrow.

Stooge, if your looking for Hush Vol.2 i have it still sealed. I may be able to ship it.

I'm simply not interested in Spawn.

Spawn is rather two-dimensional. It was all right to begin with, but it became clear that it went right down the shitter when they introduced a killer cybernetic gorilla.

The Return Of Superman; (Yeah, to pu it basically; I have the World Without A Superman and The Return Of Superman Collection)

Judging from this, you can't give up on something that you haven't gotten into. The only in-continuity stories you own are in TPB's. Where are your proper, non-Johnny DC, on-going titles?

Spawn is rather two-dimensional. It was all right to begin with, but it became clear that it went right down the shitter when they introduced a killer cybernetic gorilla.

And people rip on Superman for wearing his underwear on the outside.


If anyone is interested in compiling a complete collection of their comics that also has a way of keeping it up to date - Welcome to ComicCollectorLive.com has this free program you can download once you register that has quite an extensive list on indvidual books and trades.

I said that wasn't all of them. I forgot about this topic, lol. Let's see, I own all of Identity Crisis. I've been collecting the JSA, which is about the only fantastic book DC has besides Detective Comics. I was reading the new JLA, but that's just pathetic now, JSA is so much better.

Then there's Nightwing, which I was collecting, but that just sucked beyond belief. Add that to the numerous other titles that are so often delayed, and the little implications continuity makes on this company, I just don't care about the overall sense of the Universe. I even follow World War 3, but they could jerk that out just the same.

DC has repeatedly removed things from ever happening, and that just ruins a book for me. I don't follow an entire arc to see it removed, or never mentioned again in continuity. I have followed DC for some time, but their books just aren't good. I'd rather spend my money on something that's actually worth 2.99

But I do collect Fables, now that's a GREAT book.

Ok so The New Previews came out this past week. I was bored as hell at work so i was browsing though the Marvel Previews. So BAD

Captain America Meets Optimus Prime in: The Avengers/Transformers
And there Bringing Back Thor, I have to say that the interior art for thatComic is just horrible.

Im in love with beast wars right now. Loved the show, loving the comics.

 

[Inner-Demon]

Except for the TRANSFORMERS crossover, that takes place before Civil War, and will actually fit into continuity in the Marvel Universe aswell as IDW's Transformers universe.

 

[Square Ninja]

Comic book continuity is a myth.

 

[Just as Planned]

So uh, I recently uncovered my long lost love for DC comic books right?

So I read Superman: Red Son and Kingdom Come over the weekend; and suddenly, I feel the need to purchase myself a Green Lantern shirt.

 

[Johnny Stooge]

Comic book continuity is a myth.

It exists in periods. It's all up to the Editor's-In-Chief and where they want to take the universe. If a new story contradicts and old one, the old one will be retconned out. DC has a pretty easy issue with continuity now since they brought back the multiverse.

So uh, I recently uncovered my long lost love for DC comic books right?

=D Good choices. Just don't read The Kingdom unless you really want to. DC has some really great characters, contrary to popular belief and some really great stories. Might I suggest Green Lantern: Rebirth, Identity Crisis and Superman: Birthright if you want to try more?
I bought an Aquaman shirt the other week.
