Topic: The Ultimate Graphic Novel Collection Posted: 03-Jan-2012 at 9:01pm |
http://www.graphicnovelcollection.com/Havent seen a thread for this so thought I'd start one. Bought the first issue today and for £2.99 its great value for money, one hard bound graphic novel of The Amazing Spiderman "Coming Home". Future releases will be Dark Phoenix, Extremis and Ultimates Vol1. Thought he price goes up to £9.99, still good value for money.

I've totally just subscribed. If this gets cancelled after a few months, I'll be pissed off.

Subscribed myself after picking up the 1st part.
I'll be interested to see what stories they decide to include as it goes along

Thats not a bad list overall, and I only have a small number of those in graphic novel form.
Hopefully like the figurine collection it will be able to continue.

It's too bad I own half of these or I'd be down for this masterworks-like collection.

I'm interested to see what the "extras" will be in some of these as well. I suspect in most cases it will just be some character sketches or possibly extracts from the original script.

I have to say, I'm quite excited about this series now. I can't help but feel that it's an affordable way to get me entrenched into the rest of the Marvel Universe, as I only really read X-Men...
Disappointed that Runaways hasn't made it onto that list yet, though...

I'm irked that the second parts of stories aren't back to back with the first parts in the running order.

Anyone else been getting this?
I enjoyed the Spider-Man one which introduced Ezekiel as I've never read that particular story only heard about it (I can't see why it caused so much fuss) it's a decent story.
Extremis I've read a few times but it's nice enough to have and I think a great thing to lend to show people what comic books are like now/how much movies they like borrow from them.
Hardcover, full sized Dark Phoenix saga, glorious!

Yeah, although I'm still waiting for my mug, book ends and bag! Although they DID send me a copy of the Ed Norton Hulk with my Dark Phoenix and Venom issues.
