DC's fat TPBs -- your wants, hopes and dreams.

Damnit!

I've been loving the hell out of this book!

And the old trades don't even collect the whole thing do they?

[awayne83]

^Yeah that's some bs right there

[John Aston]

Oh... #$%^&* it to @#$%^... I sold my single issue run anticipating collected versions.

nah they only went up to vol 5 or 6 and the whole run should have been maybe 10 trades in total. Now they've given up even sooner. DC became really trigger happy with cancellations. One can almost dedicate a whole shelf now to these abandoned lines with Martian Manhunter, Spectre and others.

I hope hellblazer isn't next

Yeah, that's true, I loved the first Spectre trade as well, which I picked up a while after it was initially released but I didn't even bother to get the second one as the series was cancelled by then.

I just really hope they don't cancel the Peter David '90s runs that they've started collecting.

Such a shame for SMT.

[SJNeal]

Amazon still has their solicitation for SMT Vol. 4 up... Maybe they didn't get the memo.

[madmodpoetgod]

Did anyone get Last Days Of The Justice Society Of America? I love Roy Thomas and JSA so i am pretty excited about the collection.

[Hellboydce]

If I'm looking to get a big chunk of Batman, is this the way to go?

Legacy
Cataclysm
Road to No Mans Land
No Mans Land books 1 - 4

And where do War Games and Batman Fugative/Murderer fit into these?

[Lago]

Before Legacy (is not complete until Vol. 2 is released - hopefully soon), read the Contagion TP. Road To No Man's Land are 2 books.
After NML, pick up Batman By Ed Brubaker Vol. 1, then Bruce Wayne Murderer/Fugitive.
Afterwards Hush and then War Games 1+2.

There is also the upcoming "Batman: New Gotham" coming out in May (which is set at the same time as the Brubaker trade) of the post-NML Detective Comics's run by Greg Rucka which runs up to "Murderer"

After War Games there is also the "Under The Red Hood" story

That's a massive and daunting amount of Batman trades.

Thanks for the info.

After what is happening with Mystery Theatre I've decided not to bother with anymore DC trades until the collection is finished as I'm not laying good cash out only to get stiffed
