My response was this:
How long ago was Crisis on Infinite Earths published? It WAS groundbreaking at the time but all it spawned was one reboot after another that just messed things up. Now there is a boxed set collecting collections of collections and special issues and...this is just trying to bleed comic fans for more money for old rope. This is why no one really cares about characters now -how many times has the DC universe been destroyed and all the heroes killed off then been rebooted ? Just plain greed.
The box set price works out to a but then $5.00 a comic. I suspect many dealers charge more than $5.00 for most of the books lited, if for no other reaon than their "historical significance".
ReplyDeleteI'm lucky I was there first time around so anything that interested me I got and well under $5...UK prices at the time I think were still at 25p (near as dammit 25c)
