We've now reached the point where I, for one, can't keep up with the slew of comic reprints. So many books carry a 30 to 60 dollar price tag. Of course you can get them cheaper from amazon third party, but then you have to add on more postage costs for individual shipments instead of one monthly bulk pick-up at the store. I am not one to complain, but it's really a problem now keeping up. And I can't afford to sample much new stuff, because of the abundance of old gold. Oh well...

There is SOOOOO much I would order for the library if I had the budget and the demand!

Dark Horse needs to slow down with the Creepy and Eerie collections. I can't keep up.

I reached that point awhile ago.
Now, I just read Marvel Masterworks and Essentials and DC Archives and Showcases, and...
pretty much nothing else (comicswise, anyway).
It'll probably take me a decade or more just to read the volumes that I already own!

The good news is that it definitely allows us to take advantage of "the good old days". WIth the exception of some stuff that companies no longer have the rights to reprint, I can get most of my "nostalgia" stuff in some form.
