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?

I get Wolverine ( all his titles), X-men ( all there tiles). Any speacil apearence of wolverine in another comic line, I get all spiderman titles, I get most all fo marvel team up, I get civil war, civil war wolverine, new avengers, civil war new avengers, avenger advantures, some times get fantastic four, I get forgotten realm's comic's ones with Drizzt and Bruenor, ninja turtles's every month, I get some street fighter, I get some Captain America, I get hero for Hire civil war when I have the money, I get X-Men civil war, I get Wolverien civil war tie in's That's about it maybe a few more. I also look through old wolverien and x-men comic's to see if there may be ones I don't have. Oh I also get Dead Pool Cable Civil War.

I get these at my comic book store.

I am not sure what comic you should get maybe wait till the graphic noval for civil war comes out

I buy alot. Basically stick w/Marvel. Eternals and Xmen really good now

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!

X-Men and subtitles, Exiles, Tarot, Fables, Majestic, New Excalibur, Conan, Teen Titans, Squadron Supreme and what ever else peaks my interest.

This is my subscription list. I get my comcis at a local store here in Miami.

I don't think i follow your 2nd question very well. But if you want to read one big event personally I would with Annihilation. Of course, it depends on who your favorite characters are.

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.

how do you guys have the money for all these comics!?

Oh wait... I don't have the money because I go to school 🙁

i spend 200 bucks a month on comics sometimes more i buy them from various online stores i do usually only get big name mini series like annihilation, or infinite crisis or day of judgement, but i like the smaller mini series, i scan the story arcs to see which intrest me.

I own all the swamp thing series sept roots of swamp thing 1. i have almost all the sandman comics well i kinda did till crossing midnight came out. i got alot of the new horror comics and the old ones too, freddy, jason, micheal myers, chucky, puppet master, jason vs leatherface, leatherface, jason x. dogwitch is cool, lobo comics alot of them, the mask omgosh that comic ROCKS, hellraiser comics another uber comic but not for you people who dont have the stomach for alot of gore same goes for the mask. I got alot of other stuff too all the books of magic and names of magic, age of magic comics, got alot of if not all the crossgen titles.

Okay get daredevil in TBP very good
