coolguy Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 I got 40$ to spend on comics for christmas and i really want some good trades that i could buy from instocktrades.com but i really dont know what to get, and i was hoping that some one could give me suggestions. I already have the Watchmen, Batman Year one,Batman: The Long Halloween, DC THe New frontier, Kingdom Come, Ultimate Spiderman 1-6, Ultimates 1 and 2, The Crow, and a couple more. Any suggestion would be really great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missy Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 Superhero comics - All Star Superman, volume one (The best Superman stories ever. Volume two hasn't been released yet, but you should still get this one.) - Captain America: Winter Soldier, volume one (There are two volumes, but try the first one before you buy the second.) - Green Lantern: Secret Origin (The origin of Hal Jordan. Trust me, if I'm recommending a comic about Hal Jordan, it must be good. This is a hardcover.) - Wolverine: Enemy of the State, volumes one and two (Wolverine is brainwashed and turns on the superhuman community.) Superhero-ish - Atomic Robo, volume one (Mix Deadpool with Hellboy and you have Atomic Robo.) Non-superhero comics - Criminal (Any of the trades will do, because they're self-contained.) - Northlanders: Sven the Returned (Vikings! This volume collects eight issues and costs $6.30 at InStockTrades.) - Scalped: Indian Country (All about life on an Indian reservation.) - Walking Dead, volume one (It's an ongoing story about people living in a zombie-infested world.) To get the most for your money, of those I'd get Captain America, All Star Superman, Northlanders and Scalped. At InStockTrades that will come to just under $40. However, if you're not keen on reading non-superhero comics, go with Captain America, All Star Superman and Atomic Robo. That comes to $33 at IST. Toss in Scalped or Northlanders, both of which are $6.30, and you're at $40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 OH! Add in Witchblade, volume one by Ron Marz and Mike Choi. If you get the "direct market edition," it's only $3.14 and collects six issues (#80-85). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolguy Posted December 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 thanks i probrobly will get all star superman, green lanturn secret origins, and the captain america trades. atomic robo looks really good so i might get that too, and one of my friends has walking dead so i can just have that because he doesnt want to read comics anymore. the wolverine one looks intresting, and i think my mom just uped my budget to 60 so i can probrobly squeeze most of what you recommended in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 I got my dad all star superman and he really seems to be enjoying it. So I second the recommendation of that. Also Batman: Under the hood volumes one and two are great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
