Pastiche of Life

If you want cheap Random comics I always recommend going to your Local Forbidden Planet, I go in once a month and pick up their Back issue packs

4 Comics for £1 (i usually buy around £40 worth) If you purchased 3 TPB’s you’d be lucky to get change for £40 (Mattering on the TPB’s of course) I actually find that along side this back issue sale there is a large amount of Trades for reduced price either damaged slightly or being reprinted in some manner this applies to Manga as well. Over the years I’ve gotten entire runs of Harlem beat/Rebound along with random excellent Trades (a recent acquisition of The recent Run of Swamp thing)

Being able to look at the back and front of pack you can decided on which to purchase (If both front and back of pack have something you’ve never read…buy it etc) worst case scenario you get duplicates with the other two comics but then your Simply paying 50p per back issue for runs of comics your either interested in or want to fill in the gaps.

Ill admit during DC’s 52 i got hooked on this (Because i managed to get the entire single issue run for about £15) and i got burned bad by all the 52 aftermath/Countdown/search for…/Lord havok (Fscking Lord havok!) spin offs But you’ll find each month the Content will change currently I’m reading through the Dark reign Marvel Storyline (They must have a time limit for back issues and automatically put unsold issues in the packs after 6-8 months)

So to comic fans out there go build a ridiculous collection for a Fraction of the original cover price. Everything’s in >8.0 condition as well.
