Lots of talk lately about drek. Example. Specific examples

[NoMan]

Not a time period of comics, no generalizing. Please give a specific example of what you consider drek. Publisher, comic title, issue number, year released.

Every time you start a thread=drek.

Everything that Marvel Comics made for the New Universe in the 80's.

[Ken Aldred]

Sonic Disruptors, DC, 1987-88, class A drek.

 

[FineCollector]

Are we talking about stuff no one wants, or stuff no one wants but me?

[NoMan]

Sonic Disruptors, DC, 1987-88, class A drek.

 

Looks pretty bad

I buy the first and last issues when they are in nice shape and cheap enough. Just in case!

Stuff no one wants. Even you.

some of the later Ppwerman and IronFist...ugh....

NFL Super Pro.

 

I have a buddy from high school who has a page of original art from it.

 

[1950's war comics]

Sorry to admit that I think Charlton war comics are pretty much drek.

Anything by Malibu

 

Can't agree on this one - some of the Malibu stuff was actually ok. Not phenomenal, but not drek!

[roach04]

Youngblood #1

 

Yes. Assuming the original, Liefeld...uh...classic? . I quite enjoyed the Alan Moore relaunch!

[grebal]

Still sitting on a small stack of duplicate Master of Kung Fus and Howard the Ducks, probably next to a couple of dozen Killravens, from late 70s that nobody would ever miss if it got pulped.

 

So, not absolute drek but relative drek, right?
