Truly spoken like one of us.kikitwitme wrote:I'm a DU junkie. I use to like collecting from a new company from their infancy, from their first book than watch them bloom, so I can say I was there from the "beginning". Others I thought were going to be the next Marvel. I remember telling my comic shop owner that some Topps comics "Bombastic 1" was going to be HOT because it was the first Image inter-company crossover featuring Savage Dragon. (I bought 3 copies.) But what did I know? That’s why I'm not into stock. Finally, some others I just wait till that company stops printing and I try to get all there books for a quarter each. Knocking out a companies whole catalog for a mere $4.75 plus tax.
At any rate. to name a few I have: Triumphant, Lighting, Continuity, Atlas/Seaboard, Defiant, Broadway Comics, the list goes on and on. I used to think I completed everything from each universe until I read each companies issue list. Which sucks.........now I find out that Vicki from Atlas had a 4th issue, Valeria #1 had some variants, a white cover......AND a White w/Gold Foil!!! There were newsstand Continuity variants!! NecroMantra 4 had a limited edition!!!! Broadway had a give away book??? I guess I wasn't finished collecting DU books after all.......and here I thought I was done with them a few years ago. It’s like finding out there’s an episode of your favorite show that you’ve never knew existed but you have no way of finding a copy to watch.

I consider Kirby's work a universe in its self.

No Defiant on that list?Draco wrote:Hey there, how can i get me added to that list?
I collect Valiant, Comics greatest world, Atlas, Comico, eclipse, First, Broadway, continuity, Bravura.
Geez i just realised how many poor comics i own. Also how much i love em too.
Do yourself a favour, look it up. It's a rather small DU, less than 50 issues altogether (I think) and all but 3 or 4 issues can be had ultra-cheap at any given time.
