Suggest me some great and non-expensive storylines

[steveinthecity]

I'm partial to the Spiderman: Blue. The color series in general is good (Hulk:Gray, Daredevil:Yellow) but Spiderman: Blue I really really like....

Daredevil "Yellow" is really good.

Daytripper.

Bloody brilliant.

With a surprise appearance from GI Joe.

 

[Ken Aldred]

- Batman Grendel

- Hulk : Future Imperfect

- Justice League : The Nail

- Startling Stories : Banner

- ClanDestine 1-8, 1st series

[HeroX]

Daytripper.

Bloody brilliant.

 

This is worth repeating.

[Gaard]

A couple of my favorite storylines...

 

Daredevil - Born Again

Hellblazer - Dangerous Habits

[Garf]

Machine Man 1 - 4, 1984 mini series can be had for $8 on eBay.

[budsbundy]

Thing (1983-1986 1st Series)

This is The Thing from the Fantastic Four in his own series

There are 36 issues, but the first 1-14 were written by John Byrne and are incredible, very moving, some of the best comic book writing I've seen IMO.

Super cheap too, MCS has them all for less than $2 an issue in most cases.

Two top-tier cheap series immediately come to mind:

The Spectre run by John Ostrander & Tom Mandrake and the 1999 - 2006 run of JSA.

 

And if you like your DCU galactic in scale it's tough to beat the Jim Starlin/Mike Mignola Cosmic Odyssey 4-part arc. Really good stuff.

 

I'd also add the overlooked Superman: Exile storyline. It's like a prequel to the whole 'Death of' stuff that follows. Thirteen issues: Superman 28-30, 32, 33, Adventures of Superman issues 451-456 and Action Comics 643 and Annual 2.

Miracleman #1-24

 

Great story but they wont be cheap. Worth the price of admission though.

I'm not too big of a Marvel or DC guy but Meltzer is awesome on Identity Crisis. 7 issues. For about $8.00

Guys, thank you so much! So many interesting stuff here, I very much look forward to buying and reading some of these comics! Keep the suggestions coming!!! :-)

[Davenport]

Here's another dirt-cheap great, with the Season quickly headed our way...

 

Christmas with the Super-Heroes #2.

 

It's almost impossible to explain just how good this one book truly is. I don't know about the other issues in the CwtSH series, but #2 contains some mindblowingly excellent stories, six tales all together.

There's a unique and haunting Superman tale by Paul Chadwick (Concrete) that'll stay with you long after you put the book down. There's a wordless Enemy Ace "Silent Night" by John Byrne, and a cool Deadman story with a surprising twist.

 

Don't let the goofy cover art fool you. I'd put the stories right up there among the best comics have to offer. No joke.

OMG this seems to be wonderful! Thanks a lot for the suggestion!

[Davenport]

You're welcome. (thumbs u

 

There's a blog with every page of the Silent Night story ( click here ) ,if you want to sample one from the book. Yeah, it's a "spoiler" to do that, but also a small sample of the quality the book has to offer.

[Ghost Town]

Avengers #164-166

Avengers #167-177

Avengers #185-187

Daredevil #227-233

Many of the Byrne FF storylines from #232-290 or so.

Most of the Simonson Thor storylines from #337-375 or so.

Ed Brubaker Captain America (I think it's the 2005 series)

Ultimate Spider-Man (original series)

Bendis, then Brubaker Daredevil issues

Warren Ellis/Millar's Authority issues

[Comicshrine]

I'm going to avoid the classics, miller etc and go for more unknown

 

Avengers 273-285 masters of evil and mount Olympus storyline.

[JuliusSeizure]

Dreadstar - I've read 1-13 so far.

1980s mini 'Phantom Zone' by Steve Gerber.

Legion of Super Heroes 239-305 are everything comics ought to be.

[chrisco37]

You can probably pick up Ultimates Vol 1 and Vol 2 for pretty cheap. Identity Crisis was really good.

 

PPTSSM #107-110 is a classic and can probably be found for $2-3/book.

 

Batman: The Long Halloween back issues are probably cheap ad a great story.
