Collecting full runs. 1 1

[Shadow Images]

So how many people do you think still collect full runs?

[MetalPSI]

Depends....How many you selling?

[Finhead]

I do but only a few, Chew and Peter Panzerfaust I have full runs minus 2 variants. Other than that focus on just Silver era but full run up till the date.

modern or back issues?

[newshane]

[CAHokie]

I collect full runs all the time, on way too many series. That is why I have too many comics,

I'm only selling off everything not Batman so I can work on this runs myself.

 

modern or back issues?

 

 

Back issues. Do people still try completing full runs or are most just key chasers. I think a good majority of the newer, young collectors are key chasers but hope that may change.

[dupont2005]

If I don't like the entire run I don't like the comic.

[rogue79]

I still collect full runs

[Silver]

I still collect full runs

 

same here, it's my curse

[ChiSoxFan]

Run collector here as well.

[romanheart]

excluding variants, yes.

[Ghost Town]

Yes, but I only go up to certain numbers. Like ASM #700, Avengers #402, and X-Men #544. Then I ran out of shelf space.

[wombat]

I seem to have lost a bit of steam and focus on my Conan the Barbarian run. I'm sure I'll complete it at some point, but other things have my attention (and wallet) at the moment.

[Vexsus]

I'm working towards full runs. I want the complete stories, not just out of context key issues. : D

 

[DavidTheDavid]

I'm collecting the Hawkeye 2012 series. Otherwise, partial Strange Tales run, partial FF run, JIM 83-125, and partial Thor run.

[Doktor]

I collect full-runs on some books. Essentially X-books. All of them.

 

Have completed my full runs on New Mutants (vol 1, 2 & 3), X-Factor (vol 1 & almost all of 3), X-Force (vol 1, 2 & 3) and I'm basically focused on my UXM (Vol 1 & 2 )& X-Men (vol 1 & 2) and down to a dozen in adjectiveless & about 80 left in my UXM.

 

I'm actually including almost all variants. It's an insane undertaking.

[DougC]

Sometime this summer I will decide if I want to complete my X-Men V2 run in 9.8 or leave it as is and focus on something else.

 

I have complete raw runs of newer stuff Earth2, avengers arena, Spread and x-men as they are on my pull list. I usually collect runs of titles that I have read before; X-Factor, Rom, Marvel Comics Presents, Ghost Rider and Darkhawk.

[Web Spinner]

I;m collecting full ASM run, #1 to current (excluding variants but I;ll grab the odd one if I really like it). Have about 115 issues to go below #254. I have every issues between #255-current issue (vol. 3 #15).

 

I might try to grab an AF #15 but it;s quickly getting out of reach price-wise.

 

For other series I;m just working on collecting the best creative team run. For example, right now working on Walt Simonson Thor run and Claremont Uncanny X-Men run.

 

After those probably work on PAD Incredible Hulk run and Bendis Daredevil.
