That DC sale is insane. My wishlist is back down to a couple random indie books again. I think I managed to convert a couple floppy-only people at work to go digital after that. Someone mentioned the Swamp Thing run by Morrison/Millar. Are both volumes recommended?

Think I am almost done gathering what I want to buy from the sale, but is the Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz Green Lantern series and Dial H for Hero worth picking up?

If you have a taste for weirdo comics, gently caress yes Dial H is worth getting! Get Demon Knights and I Vampire too for the 'New 52 launch secret cool books' triple set. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 22:51 on Nov 22, 2017 |

I don't usually bother with Marvel because I have Unlimited already, and if I really want to own something I'll go hardcopy, but I DID take this opportunity to grab all the Morrison Doom Patrol, which I only half read years ago. So far I'm behaving myself with the deal

Before this sale ends, any other absolute steals (or things that rarely go on sale) like the Green Arrow and Swamp Thing omnibi? I've already decided on the Multiversity and Dini's Zatanna as well.

Dan Abnett's Titans or Aquaman worth grabbing for someone who doesn't read much DC? I only get King's Batman and never got into much else that I tried, though I did like All Star Superman and Azzarello WW. I like Abnett from Gaunt's Ghosts and his marvel space stuff.

You still need to buy multiple volumes, but the Knightfall and No Man's Land collections are huge values in terms of page count. https://www.comixology.com/Batman-Knightfall/comics-series/3618 The Tales of the Batman/Legends of the Dark Knight/Adventures of Superman writer and artist collections too.

About to pull the trigger on the books on my cart, but was the Superman books from Rebirth with post Crisis Superman returning worth reading? Right now I have volume 1 - 3 with him, Reborn, and Lois and Clark.

Absolutely. Lois and Clark into Tomasi's Superman is very good comics. It actually all starts with a two issue tie-in to the 'Convergence' event by the same team as L+C. It's recapped, so, skippable, but that's where you see their kid being born. It's collected here with other two-shots from the event: https://www.comixology.com/Convergence-Flashpoint-Book-One/digital-comic/288910 You can stick 'The Final Days of Superman' between them to see how N52 Superman gets taken away, but I didn't think it was great. The current 'Action Comics' isn't great either. Reborn was a crossover with 'Action' which I kinda think messed with a good thing, but 'Superman' continues to be strong on the other side of it, so you might as well. Get 'New Super-Man', about China's Superman, too. Really. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 08:18 on Nov 24, 2017 |

I got the second volume of Golden Age Superman, the Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez and Gil Kane Superman books, and the DC Universe by Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman collections. I'd initially thought about getting the four books of the death and return of Superman I guess out of some kind of historical curiosity (and because a random issue from around that time was one of maybe three comics my brother and I had as kids) but decided that what I wound up going with was better in terms of having a wider variety of stuff instead of one big storyline since I'm super casual in my comics reading.

Same. I thought of getting that, Knightfall, and some of the big events I read already like Infinite Crisis, 52, Zero Hour, and such but decided to get books I never read before.

Netflix's Punisher got me interested in reading the Punisher Max series, but my library only has volume 1. If I get a subscription to Marvel Unlimited can I read the rest? And can I cancel once I'm done or would I be locked in to a yearly subscription?

Valiant's finally on board the insane digital sale train! Hard to go wrong with anything. For those fresh to the Valiant universe, here's a handy planning chart: Harbinger and Bloodshot cross over in two good events, Harbinger War and Armor Hunters. Events done right. Harbinger also leads into Imperium, which is better than Harbinger in many ways. Archer & Armstrong and Quantum & Woody have a standalone crossover, The Delinquents. It's all good. Rai leads into 4001 A.D. and it's all good. The whole Divinity series is cool. Most of Shadowman is bland, as is Dead Drop. Everything else is pretty much can't-miss.

Not exactly as cheap but Marvel MAX books are now on sale at Comixology. Punisher books are  for the first two and 6.99 for the rest. Or weird alternating prices between 8.23 and 13.41 on Amazon if you have your accounts linked and feel like getting the cheaper ones there.
