The Old What Are You Collecting Thread :)

[DelBubs]

I'm gonna be adding Sleeper vol 2 to my list plus the TPB's of the first series, very impressed with what I saw during Coup De'tat. Oh and 'Holed Up' by Rich Johnson, published by Avatar. Gotta support the geezer, plus I'm sure I can get him to sign them

[Richv1]

Well I will also be getting the funny detective comic "Harry Johnson".
And also "100 Girls".
Its a good thing I write down everything I have ordered from Previews to keep track of it. It is hard to remember all the comics I keep getting there are so many.

[Weapon Omega]

I'm collecting:

Marvel:

Alpha Flight
Uncanny X-Men
New X-Men
Captain Marvel
Weapon X
Avengers
Supreme Power

DC:

Flash
JLA
JSA
Outsiders

[Richv1]

I like some of the older characters from the JSA. Dr. Fate even though it is now a new guy Hector Hall wearing the helmet. Wildcat, Hourman, Dr. Midnight these are all great characters. And Jay Garrick The Flash and Green Lantern Scott Hall these heroes were the best in there time. I loved reading their adventures.

[HappyCanuck]

... Green Lantern Scott Hall ...

You mean Alan Scott...

[Richv1]

Ok I'm not great with names but you knew who I meant.
I'll be adding Astonishing X-Men when it comes out as well, and also Belladona by Brian Pulido.

[Ottawa Renegade]

For a second there, I thought Razor Ramon was going to be joining the JSA...

In no particular order:

JSA
Supreme Power
The Authority
WildC.A.T.S.
Astro City
Hawkman

...and of course, Alpha flight. There are some characters that I try to follow from book to bok too. I'm a big fan of Nova, and Deathstroke from the Titans comic (with his daughter taking on the Ravager name, I have a nasty feeling Deathstroke may be done away with. If anyone knows anything, don't spoil it for me please).

I'm behind on a couple of those, but they're the ones I look for. I was buying Violent Messiahs and The Marquis as well.

[DelBubs]

Supreme Power
The Authority

I was pleased to see the other days that the second arc starting in #13 is being discussed. Kinda sad that you get relieved if a comic you collect gets past #12.

AUthority #12 on the other hand see's Morrison leaving (while his stories have been good, he didn't quite capture what the Authority is all about) and a chance to see what Brubaker can do with them.

[Zach]

I am currently collecting Alpha Flight, Exiles, New X-Men : Academy X, Amazing Spider-Man, Ultimate Spider-Man, Ultimate X-Men, Cable & Deadpool, and I will get the X-Force mini-series when it comes out.

Exiles is probably my favorite book out now.

I am also picking up some back issues to fill in my collections of Cable, X-Man, and X-Force.

Y: The Last Man (In trade form.)
Dr. Blink: Superhero Shrink

[Phil]

Ex Machina (Sorry AF fans, but this is the best new series of 2004.)

I really couldn't stand it, but then again I'm not a big fan of politics in comics, and the cliché of the last page killed it for me.
It's written well, but it's not my cup of tea.

Dr. Blink: Superhero Shrink

Is this any good?
I saw it yesterday and was very tempted to pick it up but didn't have the cash on me.

[Nalyd Psycho]

I love politics in comics, I hate how it can be so hard to find.

Dr. Blink is quite funny. The Quizzler segement is especially great. If you enjoy the silliness of Alpha Flight, you'll enjoy Dr. Blink.

[Phil]
