question about buying comics

1. for those of you buying comics, how many comics do you regularly buy? (there just seems to be too many)

2. if I want to follow the big events in Marvel and only want ONE comic, which one should i get?

3. do you guys get comics online or from store or other source?

1- 90% of my collection is from Marvel. zi buy pretty much every X-title out there, Avengers, Ultimate Xmen/Avengers/Spidey, Amazing Spidey, Ms.Marvel plus a lot more. Non Marvel titles that I read, Girls and Y-the last man. DC titles, Im reading 52 and JLA, mostly because of Ed Benes art.

2- For this question I guess ifu want just one comic then go with "Annihilation" because everything happen in that title. Civil War has toooo many tie-ins!

Gender: Male
Location: Edinburgh, Scotland

Astonishing X-Men
New Excalibur
Ultimate X-Men (only in the Volumes though)
Ultimate Spiderman
Civil War Spiderman
Civil War X-Men
X-23

I don't really have the money to buy much more than that, getting paid monthly sucks.

I would have recommended Astonishing X-Men but that'll will be changing soon.
I buy my comics from a store called Lamp Head Comics.

Edit: I also buy quite a few handbooks.

I only buy the graphic novels (which is usualy ok seeing as all the new comics get there eventualy or a couple of months after being published)

Anyway I don't really collect any specific comic tho i tend to go for ones including Spidey Wolvy iron man cap thor Hulk etc.

In other words i just get the newest graphic novels, and generaly any big crossovers.

I buy the British versions of Spidey as it's better value for money and is only a couple of years behind the latest issues.

I buy Civil War
Captain America (Bruabaker's writing is superb, can't wait for issue 25)
Sometimes Cable and Deadpool
I get New Avengers in trade paperback
Ultimate X-men in trade
Ultimates 2
Astonishing X-men (Although I'm behind by about 2 or 3 issues)

I also get some DC stuff in trade paperback, and I have read tons of GA, JLA, Nightwing and also Outsiders recently. Oh and some Batman in trade paperback yes
