What Would You Buy?

By JonesDeini 10 Comments

So I'm thinking of getting a few trades. I just recently bought Y The Last Man Deluxe Vol. 5 and Shade The Changing Man Vol. 1. I'm trying to decide between Jenkins/Lee's Inhumans, Shade Vol. 2, Lucifer Vol. 1, or Hickman's Nightly News (the cheapest of the lot). I'm a sucker for the Inhumans and have read a bit of this series and very much so recall enjoying it. I like the Character Shade and Milligan's writing, I'm also a sucker for early Vertigo works. Hickman's more than likely my favorite writer in the world right now and I hear this' pretty groundbreaking and an excellent read...and it's also the cheapest of the trades I just mentioned. I've heard amazing things about Lucifer and Mike Carey's well...Mike frakin' Carey!!!! Lucifer's more or less the title that built his fame. So what would you guys go with?

Sandman character (one of my favs) Plus Mike Carey...how could this go wrong?

I've finished all the collected editions of shade. I'm currently reading Morrison's Doom Patrol and LOVING IT!!! I think Lucifer's definitely next up.

Still haven't read Shade. Have the first two trades and ordered the third.
Doom Patrol's okay. I've read better.

I read some of it and I may try to get my hands on my friend's copy again so I can finish it. I recall liking it quite a bit. I'm a sucker for the Inhumans.

Have read them all, my objective choice would have been Lucifer, I enjoyed Nightly News a lot, and for that price... great selection though in any case,

Out of the selection, I've only read the Inhumans. It's a classic. One that you can go years without reading, go back to and remember how breath-taking the art is. The story is involving and intriguing, and doesn't rely heavily on any vast amounts of history or continuity in order for you to enjoy it. This was my gateway drug into the Inhumans.

I just ordered Nightly News (can't beat $4.19 lol) but Inhumans was sooo close. Inhumans was actually one of those little hits that helped to get me strung out on comics again. So excited to read them in the upcoming FF issues. Really anticipating what Hickman's gonna do with Black Bolt.
