It may be dreck (from a money standpoint), but I love it!!!

This is dedicated to all those great books, art, and stories that will never be worth anything, but you love them anyway. Money is not everything, these are books we just love.

The "Last Avengers Story" is my all time favorite Marvel story, and the 2 prestige issues aren't worth much because everyone has bad taste but me.

One of the most memorable stories I read back when I was an active collector was the Dangerous Habits arc in Hellblazer. I loved it.

Always loved the McFarlane Hulk run. Only about 3 books with any value, but they're some of my favorites.

I second Byrne FF and also Simonson Thor. Other than 337 the rest can be had for next to nothing.

... and Simonson X-Factor and Simonson FF ... The Simonsons are great story tellers.

Great choices. Simonson Thor is so frikkin' good.

 

I'll add the Lobo Mini Series & Paramilitary Xmas Special to the list of low/no value books that kick arse.

I'd also like to add Avengers 273 to 277 - Baron Zemo and his Masters of Evil's assault on the Avengers Mansion.

Oh, and Marvel Team-Up 40-44 with Spidey going back to Salem to battle the Dark Rider! Loved those issues.

Definitely, that Masters of Evil run made Avengers my favorite title for a long time as a kid..

As a kid, reading Spectacular Spider-Man 107-110, blew my mind (the Sin Eater arc). When he killed you-know-who (can't give anything away), my mind went to mush! How could they kill that person? A must read for anyone who hasn't yet done so!

Definitely the best arc ever on that book and one of the best Spidey arcs of all.

[Gaard]

All this talk of The Last Avengers Story has me intrigued. What issues can I find it in? This also reminds me...was The Last Galactus Story ever finished?

[CannDeed]

There's a lot of great Copper age stuff that fits this criteria. For me, the Jim Lee/Carl Potts run on Punisher War Journal is a personal favorite. It was one of the first series I regularly collected, after a student in one of my Dad's high school history classes gave him four books when he heard I was starting to get into comics (I was 10 or 11).

 

An aside: those four comics were: PWJ 3, ASM 314, UXM 242, and Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 6. I wound up collecting all those books. A few years later the student came back and gave my Dad a copy of a brand new comic, which the student created (or helped create) and got published. It was called "Fenry". I've still got it, signed, though I don't think he made it in the industry.
