Have a mad old collection of comics. A lot of them are still sat in the loft at my ex's home. Mostly Batman (including all issues of The Legends of the Dark Knight), Groo The Wanderer, the Marvel run of 'Civil War' untold amounts of graphic novels from a leather-bound Frank Miller's Dark Knight Returns + sequel, Watchmen, From Hell, countless Batman (again), X-Men, Superman, Spiderman, Wolverine. Think I still have issue one of Witchblade too. I actually need to get hold of them all.
Not collected for a long time. Went digital for a while (The Walking Dead, 100 Bullets, Sandman etc). Want to get back to Usagi Yojimbo (have a lot of the collected editions but not from past 5+ years). Also the new run of Absolute Batman looks incredible.

I got a bunch of old comics graded a few years ago, used to be a hobby of mine before CGC had a bunch of drama after Covid… reminds me I should log on their forum and see what’s new!

Worth checking out The Massive by Brian Wood. Recommended.

Have you guys read Michael Turners Witchblade ? Or his Fathom? Give it a try, but it should be from the Turner era pre 2008.
He has sadly passed at a young age due to cancer but he was hands down the best artist out there. He did a lot of cover art for all the big names too. I'd buy the comic just for his art...highly recommend it!

Here's what's currently on my sub list
The entire Absolute Line (Martian, Batman, Wonder Woman, Superman, Flash, Green Lantern)
The Sacrificers
Energon universe GI Joe
Void Rivals (catching up)
GI Joe ARAH
And maybe others I don't currently see on my desk
Recently finished reading the re-releases of the GI Joe ARAH compendiums. Unfortunately, my past collections are who knows where...

Also... recently picked up Fritz Leiber's Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser omnibus if anyone is familiar. Love the art style and theme so I figured I couldn't go wrong.
