Comixology posted:SXSW 2014 SUBMIT STARTER PACK Before I go and drop $10 on "$330 worth of content", are these actually any good? Am I going to have to sift through a whole lot of filler to get some good comics, and even these, are they likely to be first issues only? Put another way, am I paying $10 for 100 comics that will likely clutter my collection page and essentially it's a $10 sampler?

Carrying on with the Spider-Man stuff, I am thinking of buying Spider Island because the price is so good... but this isn't horribad like Big Time, is it? https://www.comixology.com/Spider-Man-Spider-Island/digital-comic/34528 While we are at it, is there anything else here you recommend? Only one on sale that I own is Batman Court of Owls. https://www.comixology.com/comics-sale

Thanks. I am gonna hold off on Animal Man but I will jump on Action Comics and The Flash. Anything I need to know before I read these volumes? And what about that Spider-Man graphic novel? The price is so good for that much comic that I am very tempted. $3.99 for a 389 page comic seems good - as long as it is not utter poo poo.

Grrrrrrrr OK so I will try Wonder Woman then. I have never read it before - is this a decent starting place? I am a low budget, casual comics reader so I won't be buying complete collections or anything.

Who is the intended audience for this? https://www.comixology.com/Storyteller/digital-comic/29928 If one liked the movies Labrynth and Dark Crystal, and one liked comics and stories being told, then is this one to pick up at this price?

Is this a decent place to start with Guardians of the Galaxy? https://www.comixology.co.uk/Guardians-of-the-Galaxy-Vol-1-Legacy/digital-comic/28071

Going to watch it on Thursday, wanted some background before then, not scared of spending $20-30 if you guys can suggest something I can plough through before then so I can go into the movie a little more than blind? (So far my experience with Guardians of the Galaxy is playing a bit of Rocket Raccoon in Marvel vs Capcom 3).

Yeah, just be able to take more away that would come with being at least a little familiar with the comics and the background... This bundle? https://www.comixology.co.uk/Guardians-of-the-Galaxy/bundle/32

This is my first link  https://www.comixology.co.uk/Guardians-of-the-Galaxy-Vol-1-Legacy/digital-comic/28071 I'm curious if the bundle #1-25 incorporates all of the other link's content? Ie, the 1-6 in the other is the first 6 in this 25 bundle?

Hey guys. Just how far back do I need to go to get the most out of House of M? I bought it on Comixology, now by far my main source of comics, on sale along with a couple others not really knowing what I was getting myself in for. I've Googled for some suggested reading orders or to find out what is skippable and I think there's a lot of assumed knowledge. I've never been properly into X Men and I put off reading Avengers Disassembled et al as a result of not owning enough of the comics yet, but wouldn't mind getting into this even if it means buying a few more collected editions or trade paperbacks (digitally anyway) if there's a good beginning and end and I can enjoy an epic story or two along the way. Any suggestions?

I thought there was a ton of back story and it was a major event with loads of comics and tpb's spinning out of it...? Maybe what I'll do when I get home later is post the x men and avengers I do own and you guys can suggest a reading order, or one or two purchases that would enrich the experience? I have 15 hours of flights on Thursday and Friday and look forward to diving into this...
