Most folks focus on either one or the other, and it's already a tough set to complete - and you'd give the copper and bronze collectors a set they can aspire to complete.

It might bring some copies out in the open I need.... hm so put me down for a yes. (thumbs u

 

It would be great for the series as whole due to so many heroes involved in the full run.

 

Did you drop a recommendation to the registry forum yet?

You are absolutely right, the collectors of older/later issues are not the same (maybe following the size of their wallet).

Interesting idea but I would not be sure how to split the set.

 

I never have tried to collect any issue over 93.

In my mind, there is 1-93 only (I always thought the showcase legacy was more "1st Issue Special" than showcase 94-104).

 

When I tried to define different era for showcase, I only found one "natural" separation : 10 cents (1-35) and later (36-up).

But even this is not enough : issues before 20 are very scarce, more than 20-35. On the other side, issues 80-93 are clearly bronze age and in all ways different from 36-80...

 

I got headaches sometimes !!! :makepoint:

 

So I don't feel a mere spit into two sets would be accurate.

But this is only my opinion ! ;)

There's some question as to where the splits should happen, maybe it should happen at #64 (the last Spectre preview) and others may think it should be further subdivided (BPLZ). All definitely valid ideas. I'll leave it to the experts to decide whats best if a split is approved.

 

Anyone know what the process is - is this considered an "official" method for requesting a change to the registry - or is there something else I need to do (shrug)
