I think if one were to only own a couple volumes of each the way to go would be to pick the ones that had some of your favorite artists, and probably go for volumes from about 3-7...the first couple early volume are usually a bit weak as they are just getting going, and the later volumes are usually when things start burning out. Same goes for the EC archives...
