dwip99 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Woe that #1 looks great especially for what you paid. What grade did the #4 have in the slab that looks like a really clean book? Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to finish out the whole volume or leave it at 100? I am working through the whole vol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to finish out the whole volume or leave it at 100? I am working through the whole vol. I'm going to stop at #100 at the moment and finish Tos/Iron Man and JIM/Thor first, but these should be done before the Summer and then who knows... not a lot left so I might go for the entire series. Of course I also want to get Batman #1 - #400 from "that other company" and I might get serious about that run this year. Good luck on completing the entire vol, completing series is where it's at (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I wish some one would wish me extra spending money Looks like you have quite a bit on your plate Iron man should be a fun one to put together and TOS/JIM will definatly be cool but I have never really enjoyed Thor. When I finish DD I will start think about what comes next I find it hard to stay focused so if I think about others I will spend money on stuff that I shouldn't and miss books that I want.

Do one series at a time and NEVER stray and you should be able to do it, but not that easy with all the nice books on offer on the boards every day I already have 95% of each series, Iron Man and Thor complete and just need 5 more JIMS and 6 more TOS books. Alas I still need a Tos #39 ... so that will be my next major purchase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Haul!!!!! I'm reading in the #150's now and about to start the Miller issues. This has been a great series so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwip99 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I have been skipping around and reading a few here and there but I really can't wait to go back and read from the start and go through the entire set. So did you complete the 1-100 run and then just keep going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Corgi Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I have been skipping around and reading a few here and there but I really can't wait to go back and read from the start and go through the entire set. So did you complete the 1-100 run and then just keep going? Yes! However I still need DD #2 to finish my run of #1-230.... I started with the Essential Vol 1 but the rest have been read from the originals themselves. Once I hit #50, I said let me go to #100. Then it was like, well I know I want to read the Miller stuff so I figured I'd just keep going. A few clunky issues in there, but all the same, I've been enjoying them so much! (Gene Colan rocks!!) I'm also doing the same thing with FF (though I'm stopping at #126 here) and on ASM which I will read up until around #350....But DD will be the series I complete first! I'm not sure right now if I want to continue up past #250 until #380.... What do you think? I know I would like to start picking up the new/current DD issues. The art in them looks pretty sweet!

dwip99 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I say go for it. I have read a few in the 300+ and there good. Besides it can't hurt to just finish it off. I am trying to stay really focused but all the FF covers in the best cover thread going on is making want to start working on those next. I am interested in the Vol 2 DD stuff but not sure I will go after that right away. Once this is done I will start over from #1 and read through while I work on whatever I decide will be next. I saw a number 2 in the sales forum the other day you might have some luck there. The want to by forum is also great that's where I got my last chunk of books and I am just waiting to pull in some more cash before I buy more.
