A Man With An Agenda
A Man With An Agenda rated it 5 years ago
I've said it before and then went and splurged on volumes anyway, but 'Volume 8' is notoriously high-priced. Some mixture of the notoriety of its stories and the scarcity of its edition makes it sell for three or four times the cover price. I'll be circling eBay for awhile before one comes up at a p...

It is difficult to cry foul over spoilers for a 50 year old comic book, but the back cover of this Archives collection features two covers that show the death of a Legion member in no uncertain terms. This was a big deal, as before no Legionnaire has stayed dead before. This character, I believe rem...

The comics are easing into this business of long-range story-telling, but boy, is it difficult for the writer's sometimes. They want to just wave a hand and have Kal-El or Invisible Kid give a panel's worth of exposition on what could have been an interesting story in itself. Of course, dealing with...

I love these Archive Editions, in most cases they cost more used then they did new back in the 1990s but they have crisp color and, of course, they're more available, durable and readable than the original comics.

There are two goofy periods for World's Finest Comics: The late fifties/early sixties, where they just had whacked-out stories and one-shot bad guys, and the late sixties, when editors in their late fifties were attempting to write hip and relevant storylines. Luckily, most of the tales reprinted in...

It's hard to go wrong with 500-pages of early Silver Age comics for $9.99. Showcase Presents Superman features the Man of Steel in some of his earliest silver age adventures, beginning with Action Comics #241 and Superman #122, and feature the introduction of many Superman Family staples: Supergirl,...

Go figure I like the Superman comic that's written by Alan Moore... Absolutely loathe Superman, but great collection here.

This is the last of the George Perez piloted Wonder Woman, or at least the last that's been collected in trades. I really enjoyed his perspective on the character, and the heavily mythological backing she had here. And the art is beautiful, of course.
