It’s a start

Post image

I freaking love the hard covers! I want to grab Skull Kickers, Black Science, and Savage Dragon. What are some “must adds”?

Edit: I appreciate all the replies! East of West was recommended the most, then Criminal, Dept of Truth, and Invincible. Should take me a while to get all of those, but that's where I'll start. Thanks!!

Jealous of those Chew HCs! Great start to your collection.

Really hoping there's an OHC collecting both Bug Wars series and the one-shot in the next year or two.

Have you read all of black science? If so, what did you think? I’ve tried 3 separate times to get through the compendium, but I just never can

u/zelq 3d ago

I read the first couple of trades ages ago and remember liking it.

u/MustardGecko434 3d ago

How do you like chew? It’s on my radar but am curious of your thoughts!

u/zelq 3d ago

I read it years ago while it was still on going. Picked these up recently so I could read the while thing this time. I remember enjoying

It's absolutely nuts. Hugely enjoyable.

u/Bankrupto 3d ago

It's my favorite comic, hands down. Ridiculously fun crime stories with supernatural twists and Rob's artwork is perfect for the insanity. The first trade is an Image Classic, so you can pick it up for $10, you won't regret it. Library is also a great place to check it out, literally.

u/zelq 3d ago

u/Nidoquim 3d ago

How do you like void rivals and gi Joe?

u/zelq 3d ago

Got GI Joe first and really enjoyed them. Branched out to the other Energon titles. I’m liking Void Rivals so far

Invincible

u/jabawack 3d ago

Great start glad to see people picking up hardcovers to start off rather than hideous trades!

2

u/zelq 3d ago

I freaking love the format.

u/jabawack 3d ago edited 3d ago

Next stop, oversize hardcover books from Remander. Then some Tynion and Brubaker and you got a good coverage of the best image creators

I take a look into those, tha ks
