Where are you at with your DC comics?

[TheDragonKing]

I'm just wondering where people are at with their comics. Are you reading current comics and keeping up to date or are you reading trades or more older comics? What is your current comic status/plan?

Both, reading current stuff that I like as I am around to read it and picking up trades for stuff I was too young for when they first came out, like Mark Waid's Flash or Geoff John's 90's Justice Society Run or the Power of Shazam books.

I stopped buying new DC comics a while back.

I have some stuff I've bought on Comixology, but I use DCUInfinite to read DC comics now.
They have complete runs of the '80s Legion, Outsiders, Infinity Inc, Omega Men and Titans.
Still waiting for them to plug the holes in the original JLA, but I saw today that they're adding two of the missing issues to DCUI and Comixology next month.

I am reading some more recent comics on DCUI.
I started reading the newer Justice League Dark series, and find it better than the older series. The characters seem to have more 'character' than they did at the start of New52.
Through JLD, I started reading Wonder Woman, but depending on how the Aphrodite story goes I may be dropping it. I didn't care for the Nord art. Especially during the fight scenes with Ares.
Meanwhile, there was an ad/preview for Aquaman and I liked it enough to add his book to my reading. But while #43 looked really good, the story felt very meh. We'll see if I keep reading it, too.

As for physical comics, I still have my '80s Legion collection, my '80s Star Trek comics and my JLI collection I can go back and re-read if I want to.
I did decide to pick up some more older comics but I just haven't gotten around to it.

I'm hoping to do this once I get DC Universe Infinite but I'm in the UK so I can't get access to it.

Word is that global release should be by this summer.

I believe the tv shows they had on there before it became DCUI were the main reason it couldn’t go global.

I'm still reading current titles but my pull list has shrunk quite a lot. The semester before the pandemic was crazy and I fell behind on my books, then 2020 happened and after months of shutdown/quarantine I found it hard to give a damn about the issues I had missed, so now I'm just pulling a handful of books I'm really invested/interested in, several of which are mini's so my pull will be even smaller when they wrap.

I buy trades too; some of it's modern stuff I don't bother with in floppy (like Williamson's Flash), some of it's older material (like Simmonson's Thor).

And I'll be getting some of the digital first books too, mostly the Milestone stuff.

[Johnny]

I follow a few ongoing titles, but even that it's mostly waiting for the trades. I don't recall the last time I was so uninterested in what DC's doing. Maybe around DC You time?

[Mike]

I've given up on new issues with the last issue of the latest Hawkman book.
My time and money is spent looking for back issues, pre1990, that I missed the first time around.

[Lightning Rider]

Mostly older trades. Got a bunch on discount and there are lots of classics I have yet to dive into.

I'm still catching up on Williams' Flash run and plan on reading the rest of Flash Forward. After that I'll see if I can get Death Metal in trade and hop back into some current titles.

Might also catch up on Morrison's Green Lantern and Venditti's Hawkman, which I enjoyed, just got distracted from the routine and had to budget a bit.
