yep, i did that with the original runaways series, i hadn't owned any Marvel comics before that...

I really do, but funny thing is i've only done it for mostly creator own comics. For example I've read black summer when a friend told me about how awesome warren ellis is and he was right and i bought it, also mark waid's irredeemable and lastly when i asked where to start reading marvel i borrowed the first two trades of new avengers (which for me is a must have to start reading the modern marvel universe

I do this a good deal.

nope .

I wait for the trade.

Sometimes

No; I don't know anyone that reads comics

Sometimes... I Make that Mistake alot when it comes to Graphic Novels Though

Last one I remember doing it for was
 

Yep. This has happened to be a bunch of times. Agents of Atlas, Tiny Titans, Uncle Sam and the Freedom Fighters, Hitman, Union Jack... uh, too many to list.

yea, or if my friends give me files of comics i go out and get the trades
