    Superman

    Character » Superman appears in 18886 issues.

    Sent to Earth as an infant from the dying planet Krypton, Kal-El was adopted by the loving Kent family and raised in America's heartland as Clark Kent. Using his immense solar-fueled powers, he became Superman to defend mankind against all manner of threats while championing truth, justice, and the American way!

    Does anyone think DC need to put out more trades ?

    I'm still waiting for Peter David's Aquaman to be collected in trade format.

    For Superman, or just more trades in general?

    Either way, more trades are always good.

    DC sucks at collecting trades. So many damn ongoings of popular characters and half of Vertigo are uncollected.

    Since I've gotten a tablet, comixology has effectively made getting trades a non-issue for me. Not always as good of a deal, but it's nice to have most everything available and occasionally there's some good sales.

    Storage is an issue for me so trades are pretty much the only thing I buy. It is especially frustrating because most of my favorite characters are from DC so waiting forever to get the next trade sucks. I should also note that I have never really been a fan of buying comics online. I prefer to have a physical copy.

    @Z3RO180: So far I have only gotten the free previews on my ipod. Otherwise I don't have anything digital. I have thought about buying the new issues online monthly and when the trade comes out picking it up for my collection but that's a lot of money. haha.

    Well, I view them on my 10-inch ipad. So I can easily read it page-by-page - which is my preferred method. I will say it may seem slightly small when you're viewing a double-page spread but it's not bad and can still be read without straining your eyes. Plus it's all in HD, so everything looks vibrant and is very sharp. The option to zoom in or read panel-by-panel is there too.

    I'll admit it's not the traditional experience, but I'm not in the position where I can regularly go to a comic shop. I'm also pretty sure my wife would get annoyed at me if I had a bunch of issues or trade paper backs laying around. :P
