super hyped for this, specially since the first TPB went OOP

>>83824629
They need to release more Basil Wolverton collections
>>
>>83824442
He does actually

I met him at Long Beach Comic Con at the DC panel, before DC and Marvel realized that the con would be way smaller than anyone expected.

Someone asked the million dollar question about Young Justice and Didio said that book to him showed how much redundancy was in the DCU, where there were so many books that had "knock off characters" doing nothing. Part of the reason there is constantly line wide events and reboots is because Didio's vision is for all the books to fit into a tapestry and have a bigger goal inside the DCU

Which is all horseshit because he's only messed everything up with that thinking
>>
>>83824478
Wasn't that other release a bit back complete ass?
>>
>>83824919
>a bigger goal
What goal is there beyond entertaining your reader?
>>
>>83824919
what fat old cuck

Characters "doing nothing" can be refreshing in contrast to big high dtakes stories.
>>
>>83824935
There is an older Ballad of the Salt Sea collection that's apparently awful. Beyond the ugly cover IDW's collections have been solid
>>
>>83824951
Especially if you have a writer that really good at solid character focused writing, like Peter David. I don't think he's ever just straight up done a big end of the world plot unless it's in his Aquaman run
>>
>>83824944
Corporate synergy. Giving food to their toy, tv, and movie licenses

>>83824951
Yeah. You think of the best DC books like Starman, Chronos, Young Heroes in Love, all those Vertigo books before Vertigo became a separate entity, just creative teams having fun exploring the depths of the characters

They're a necessity to every batfags collection so you did good. Probably should have went with the deluxe year 100 since it collects more stories. I made that mistake not knowing about the newer edition so you still have time to change it.

Modern Milligan is hit and miss from what anons here say. I'd be wary. I love his JLA classified story from about a decade ago though, so idk.

Today's purchases.

I've got a friend who really likes Captain Marvel and always brings him up when I talk about Supes. I don't really know sweet shit all about him, so when I saw Shazam vol. 1 at the LCS today I figured I'd give it a shot. Not bad, from the perspective of someone with basically no prior knowledge. Considering getting the other volumes. Is it worth it, /co/?
>>
>>83830105
Yeah I read that as college money for some reason after seeing you were 18. Which I'm sure you will spend that on comics too because I doubt you have a job or ever even worked. Why are you so butthurt over me having a g/f though? It isn't that hard to attain.

I have the first 2 Hellboy hardcovers in the mail, and I will likely get the first (Kirby /Steranko) Cap Omni and the Master of Kung Fu omni as gifts this weekend. Those are my guesses anyway, the omnis whatever they are, sit wrapped and half ass hidden in my wife's closet.

With a lot of Stan Lee and purple prose Golden/Silver Age stuff I tend to gloss over the captions since they just reiterate what's going on in the panels

It's take me several tries to get through X-Men or Fourth World. Definitelt prefer Kirby's operatic Technobabble to Stan's soap style dialogue
>>
>>83834152
The Kirby stuff kills me too

Superman's Pal is the driest to read comic and the cosmic hippies of the Forever People I can't stand.
>>
>>83834152
>Stan's soap style dialogue
I find the Thor dialogue kind of charming. All the thees and thous
>>
>>83833979
I felt that way for a long time, now I read old shit pretty much exclusively.

Just recently I read the ASM omni and turned right back to the start and read it agian.

I did find Buisick/Perez Avengers unreadible for this exact same reason though. So ot isn't old comics. Hell, Earth X, for example, makes Stan Lee look terse by comparison. As for old comics, I really only have this problem with Shooter and Roy Thomas. Guy like Clairmont, Wolfman, Moench, Lee and Kirby entertain the fuck out of me.
>>
>>83834292
Earth X is weird because you are right I should absolutely hate it, and the narrative structure of it is really boring but I don't.
>>
>>83834292
I can deal with Thomas on Conan and nothing else

Also EC comics were over written like no ones business, but I still enjoy them
>>
>>83834228
Yeah Stan is perfect for Thor, really. He is goid with early, fucked up, just barely missed being a super villian , Peter Parker too.
I like him on the FF from about the Wedding on as well.
Yeah, I like Stan Lee. It's kinda weird.
>>
>>83834400
Thomas Conan rocks, he sucks at everything else though.
Englert's another one I cannot stand, really.
>>
>>83834426
>Yeah, I like Stan Lee. It's kinda weird.
It's real hard to deny that charm. Right now in your head you can hear him saying " Excelsior!" or "Greetings, True Believers" and either of them probably make you smile a bit
>>
>>83834041
It was alright, I didn't like the Swierczynski stuff as much as the first half that's in the omni.
>>
>>83834490
When it comes to PR, Brevoort makes Stan look like Ghandi and Jesus all at once.
>>
>>83834292
Wolfman I can't slog through. I powered through 7 volumes of Essential Spider-man but his made my bingeing come to a halt.

I've had New Teen Titans sitting there collecting dust because I can't get past the first 10 issues. His Superman was pretty clunky too

>>83834208
Yeah, Jimmy Olsen is the worst of the bunch but I blame that all on Jimmy Olsen as a character.
>>
>>83834292
One of the first comics I spent my own money on as a kid was that 4th issue of Busiek Perez Avengers and Claremont/Larroca FF

Then I fell off and got back in with Shonen Manga years later and never looked back.

I like my comics like that Elvis song, with a little less conversation and a bit more action.
>>
>>83834564
>I blame that all on Jimmy Olsen as a character.

I blame the Newsboy Legion. Fuck those characters

only started collecting again last month after taking a break of comics for about... 3 years I think.

>>83824226
>What is your Dream collected edition?
Colossal Conan, still mad I didn't buy it and now I can't find it anywhere for a reasonable price.
Also The Legion of Super Heroes Archive Editions, will shill out the dough for all of LoSH vol 5 next month, then starting with those, got a few comic shops around here who sell them for around €50 each, which is "relatively" reasonable and they look fancy as fuck.

>>83827556
hey I have the complete set of that Silmarillion + Hobbit + LotR and the first book of that Horus Heresy visions stuff but I read it on the bus and it got horribly warped when I didn't close a water bottle properly and put it in my bag.

>>83828239

Freaks' Squelle in English version.
I'd kill to have that translated. Otherwise I may end up buying the French versions and suffering through the language barrier.

Other recent purchases not included in this pic were Marvel Masterwork's Atlas Era Battlefield. I give it a solid 8/10, really cool, even though some of the stories are weak.
DC: The New Frontier I'd say is a solid 9.5/10, if not a 10/10.
Enjoyed the hell out of Polar and Rebels. I'll be buying Polar v. 3 when it comes out.

July's planned purchases:
Deadly Class HC, Animal-Man Omnibus, Golden-Age Superman v. 1 and 2, and Richard Stark's Parker: Martini Edition.

Mindless bidding war is never good.
People enter their maximums. Then when they are outbid, they think "Well, I can certainly pay $2 and outbid this bidder" and the cycle continues.

Best thing to do is wait until the last moment, or use a sniper software, and enter your max bid.
If you win, then you're happy to pay that amount.
If you lose, then you wouldn't have been happy to pay above you max anyway.

Never read Ultimates v3 or Ultimatum. Never do it, believe me. Skip over it and read the stuff after that if you like because it gets a bit better then again, but seriously, ignore Ultimates v3 and Ultimatum. Jeff Loeb had a bad reputation before that but with those 2 titles he pretty much killed any credibility he still had and he literally destroys everything you ever liked about the UU. Better just read some summary of it instead of the actual comic.

If you can I highly recommend getting the Iron Man by Busiek omnibus

>>83859486
Busiek in general does always get ignored it seems, even though he's one of the top writers in the industry, if anything then simply for the fact that he doesn't really make bad choices in character development and he generally stays on a run for quite some time to get his ideas fleshed out.

I take it you don't remember when they said they were going to reprint Starman and then never then canceled after printing two volumes and then said they would release it but now canceled it again.

I've been collecting comics for 30 years now and have shit in long boxes and in stacks in my attic of my 200 year old family house I partially inherited. My cat got loose in the attic the other day and found this laying on the floor and I have to wonder why I don't sell this stuff when some of the collections in this thread look so good and I don't even think about what I have stuffed away.

That's worth like $10-20.

Why not just enjoy it instead of going through all that hassle? It's nice owning a piece of history.
>>
>>83862639
Is it really? Figured it would be more. Have a lot of sixties Xmen too but not the first twelve issues. I'm holding on to it expecting it to be worth more but it is becoming cluttering. Endless boxes of 70s and on boxes.

I'm pretty jelly right now. Oldest comic I own are the Asterix comics of my dad and a certain Legion of Super Heroes issue that was released in the month/year I was born (actual release date, not cover date), wonder what my parents were thinking buying it?
>>
>>83862690
It's worth *some*, but we're talking chump change - as long as you have a job that pays more than minimum wage, it's worth it just to hold onto them. They'll always be worth more down the line, and owning rare comics in of itself is fun. Really only get rid of them if they're: a) worthless, or b) taking up too much space that they're a burden.

Single issues and runs with gaps in them are also worth significantly less than full sets, so it's also worth just, yknow, collecting if that is ever your hobby. I have 10,000+ comics, and they paid for themselves just by buying incomplete runs, and amassing the same collection twice, selling one to pay for the other.

I still need to read his Thunderbolts, I enjoyed his Avengers for the most part.
>>
>>83862807
My oldest comic is Avengers #2 and #6 (sadly, there was no #4 in the shop). I got both for $5 at a shop in Japan, pretty sure a soldier had them in the 60s and their Japanese kid just sold it off not knowing anything about it.

I keep going back to that shop in hopes that there are some more finds like that, but it's mostly just Powerpuff girl comics...
>>
>>83862831
I'm a history teacher so I'm not rich by any means but am comfortable and love using the comics for history lessons. I'm just not too into the collecting hobby as I have moved on into different hobbies and have a kid on the way and don't know if I should sell now or just keep them for the bigger payoff. When I was younger I wanted to have a show room for my collection but now I would rather have space for a play room for the kid and don't care as much. It's a hard choice to sell now or wait it out.

>>83863057
They're not going to magically get rarer, unless a character's first appearance in the comic is used in television/movies. They'll probably just gain $10-20 in value over time, but hey, maybe your kid would enjoy them later in life, who knows? I would have loved for my dad to have read comics and inherited a stash!

But kid's take priority, do what you think is best for them!

Amazon has a second volume for Breyfogle solicited.

It is missing issues that he didn't draw for Tec and annoyingly it doesn't include covers he didn't draw.

I was just going to buy the single issues, but then i realized he drew the first appearance of The Ventriloquist and Scarface and since they've been in cartoons and video games it was cheaper to just buy the hardcover

Just budgeting, like anything. Set aside an amount each month that you're comfortable with. My current trade/book budget is $40/month. Sometimes I'll buy up to the limit, sometimes I won't buy at all because there's noting I want that month. That cash rolls over to be used next month for a larger purchase if I want or I just back into the account for essentials.

Goon v.3 and a couple more coming in a week or so, depending on budget. Was looking into picking up the Ex Machina deluxes, but for some reason 3-5 are really expensive.

Probably going to go for the first Atomic Robo omni, Paper Girls, and The Filth.

They love money. If anything it's the people who do not have the same kind of love for swamp thing.

There is more than enough people who love Alan's Moore Swamp Thing Run and would pay for an omnibus without second thought. I hope that reason it does not have an omni yet is because they are unaware that people would like one, rather than they are just being Dicks.
>>
>>83873655
Yeah but it's still a limited market on who would buy an omnibus whereas watchmen has an absolute and deluxe that will sell out quick. Has a lot to do with the movie though and its success. Swamp thing had a movie in like 1982 and most people have never even heard of it but everyone and their mother knows what watchmen is.

I heard from retailers that the movie actually killed a lot of interest in Watchmen. Where it was a highly consistent seller, now it's only an occasional mover since people probably either negatively view the movie or have heard that the movie is a near replica for the book and don't want to double dip

I'm on the fence on which format should I pick up Sandman.

I like the way the story is broken down in the paperbacks (but I prefer hardcover) with Fables and Reflections collecting the short stories set throughout Morpheus' history. The Absolute Edition seem great but they are the most expensive choice, and the Omnibus seems nice but I hear is glued (not sure if it's also sewn). What would you recommend as the best edition?

Like, if there is white on one page and a color on the page that faces it, that color bleeds onto the white.

Is it from light exposure or from being stacked on their sides a while back?

It looked like one giant regular glued HC. If you look closely at a truly sewn book which will be glued anyways to reinforce the stitching you can see that they are sewn in bundles. Chunks of extra long pages folded in half and sewn in the middle to the spine. That DC One Million book looked like the pages just went straight to the back with only glue holding it.

they almost always do the latter when it's sewn binding, including marvel omnibuses.

/lit/ here, don't store them in the usual way. turn them with the front cover up and the back cover down. it doesn't look too good but at least the books will survive.

Looking at the new release of Death of Superman, and it seems like they got a lot of what had been missing from the reprints, even the bloodlines annuals

I think last time KnightsQuest volume wasn't as through. If they follow the same lead, they'll include everything from that storyline which will be nice for completionist

I read my single issues digitally, so I really wanted this in print. Prestige format was just extra incentive for me.

Any idea how, or if, will this be collected?

my mignolaverse shelf is almost done. just got a few BPRD Hell on Earth books to get. I am super upset that Frankenstein Underground ruined the flow of all the books by changing its font and the Dark Horse logo on the spine.
