How are you liking the DC Finest trades? What comics would you like to see get a DC Finest?

>We're recollecting what we already collected just a year ago.. But this time.. WITH A NEW COVER!

>>150878631
Exactly. There's plenty of stories that have never been collected but they keep reprinting the same old comics again and again and again.

I just want bronze age omnibuses.

>>150878538 (OP)
I haven’t bought any. Not worth the price tag. If they were 19.99 maybe 24.99 I would but not 39.99. Thats just absurd for a paperback.

>>150878538 (OP)
PRINT THE WHOLE RUN OF PETER DAVID'S SUPERGIRL AND I WILL GIVE MY SOUL TO THE JEWS!!

>>150878699
Just don't buy them on release date. Within a few months the price will drop to around $25. That's what I do.

I want them to finish the collections they already started.
Where's my Robin Archives #3, DC?
Why did you cancel the Batman Chronicles reprints?

>>150878538 (OP)
I'm frankly amazed that they remembered Year Two

>>150878699
>not 39.99. Thats just absurd for a paperback.

From the front page of instocktrades:
Haunt the Complete Collection 608 pages for 49.99 msrp (Image)
Amazing Spider-Man Modern Epic collection Big Time 512 pages for 54.99 msrp (Marvel)
DC Finest Supergirl Body & Soul 568 pages for 39.99 msrp (DC)

>>150879175
Exactly. Your average TPB is $20 for six issues. This is $40 for over twenty. This is a bargain.

>>150878538 (OP)
I don't like long-running comics.

>>150879175
>youre right the price point is absurd
Thank you for agreeing with me

Here's a comparison of a newly released Kodansha manga vs dc finest week 1 front page of instocktrades. The manga is smaller trim size, 208 pages (vs 568), black and white (vs color).

Now add in shipping anon

>>150881704
>>150881691
Oh. And tax.

Oh and also I don’t give a fuck about the price of manga.

I want Vigilante.

>>150881724
People get called poor on this site a lot, but you might be the first legitimate seething poorfag I've ever seen.

It's an interesting line that clearly changes things up.

DC evil girls

Concession accepted

So when you complained about 39.99 you meant that price should be tax free and ships free? Can you link me where you buy your stuff? I would like to avoid shipping and taxes as well.

One thing I will credit DC Finest over Marvel's Epic Collections series is that they have much better covers. Not only is the font and placement of text much better, Epic Collections often have some very questionable cover choices, they often don't go for the best iconic covers like you'd expect them to. Like, why the fuck does the Doctor Strange Epic Collection called "Triumph and Torment" not have the cover to Triumph and Torment on them.

>>150878538 (OP)
Awful cover formats.

>>150882660
>>150882736
duality of the man

>>150882814
Or >>150882660 has taste
while >>150882736 has no taste or is a Marvel shill

>>150882660
Nah the covers suck, the titles are too fucking big and it feels outdated, compact comics did a better job.

>>150878538 (OP)
I'd like Young Justice.

>>150882893
No, >>150882660 has no taste.
The text space takes up too much room and the title font is boring.

Need another Legion one already

>>150878538 (OP)
Really fantastic I hope they stick with it.

>>150878685
This. Nobody wants the silver age nonsense.

>>150885377
I got the Legion one from Target's buy 2 get 1. The packaging was shit so the cover is creased.

>>150885313
You're boring

>>150885915
I ordered mine off Amazon and it had a creased cover too. Next time I'm relying on my LCS

>>150885915
>>150886130
I don't mean to sound like a shill, but instocktrades really doesn't fuck around when it comes to packaging. I'm impressed by the craftsmanship every time I order from them.

>>150878538 (OP)
I like but I want more TT and Legion, they've only done/announced one book each so far

>>150881726
This and Checkmate.

>>150885758
boomers and zoomers want the silver age
gen x fossils still think nobody wants silver age because they're stuck in the 2000s

>What comics would you like to see get a DC Finest?
I feel Wonder Woman has gotten a very bad lineup so far. Fucking Earth One followed by the New 52? Cursed.
I would like George Perez's run, some of it anyway, to be collected. Since I've heard such good things about it.

>>150878538 (OP)
Give me an Elongated Man one so I can upgrade from the black and white Showcase Presents trade I have.

>>150886447
They started printing that run in a separate TPB series recently so it'll probably be a while

>>150878538 (OP)
Is any of the racist stuff kept in the Golden Age issues?

>>150886904
Yeah, all of it.

I have the Cass Batgirl one and it's nice, but weird that they didn't start at the beginning of her series.

>>150878538 (OP)
CAPTAIN FUCKING MARVEL! I will shout it from the damn roof tops if I have to!

Also Golden Age Hawkman, Green Lantern, Flash Sandman, Fate. And some more Plastic Man, plsthnx

>>150881924
I want to get the Green Arrow Finest but there's a reprinting error with Longbow Hunters, right?

>>150878538 (OP)
I’m patiently awaiting Cary Bates Flash and Superman volumes, all the never-before-reprinted Legion, and post-O’Neil Green Lantern. Glad to see PAD’s Supergirl so it can hopefully finally be collected. Also all of the original Jonah Hex.

>>150886492
This too, I just replaced my Showcase Metamorpho.
