If you could have an Artist's Edition made of any six issues from the same artist, what would it be?

To refresh, an Artist's Edition is a book filled with sequential original art replicas, with white-outs, yellowing, coffee stains and all. At original size, so they're awesome.

Me, I'd love to see a Miller Daredevil one, or a Perez New Teen Titans, or Sienkiewicz New Mutants (cause he used to fill that stuff with collages, artifacts and all kinds of crazy physical crap).

I want a good page from the Demon Bear story so bad it hurts. Yes I would definitely buy an artist's edition.

What else?

Denny O'Neal and Neal Adams' Green Lantern.

Aparo's Brave & Bold. (Hell, right now I would just settle for a color reprint. Get with it, DC.)

The first four Wonder Woman stories Roy Thomas, Gene Colan & Romeo Tanghal. I own three of these pages and they are beautiful.

Don Newton's Detective stories.

Neil Gaiman's Sandman.

Alan Moore's Swamp Thing.

Sadly, most of these will never be collected in an "Artist's Edition" because the pages have been scattered among collectors.

True. Eisner and Simonson kept their originals.

They'd have to agree to get them hi-res scanned. Some of the pages are lost to fires or used as cutting boards or irreparably damaged. Even the Rocketeer had 2 pages taken from film rather than art.
