Magnus #1

Post by chesscub »

There was a month where I was trying to buy every #1 that came out. One of those was the book that kicked it off for most everyone here. Reading that book was such a breathe of fresh air.

After that I picked up everything that Valiant released pre-Unity.

After Birthquake, I ended up getting out of a few of the books. Now tracking some of those issues down is tough. I've got the end issues for everything but Bloodshot. Though I keep a close eye out for the issues I'm missing.

My only curse was finding a Magnus #0. Paid $60 in the end for the carded version.

I learned my lesson with Harbinger and bought two copies so I could send away for Harbinger 0.

Welcome to the boards dude.
You will find that 99% of all books published by Valiant and then Acclaim are available through people here, so filling your gaps will be easier than what it once was.

Enjoy the wealth of knowledge here also.
