        On a broad scale Amazing Spider-Man 50-100.
        I've had them so long I just take them for granted but I haven't read most of them in ages since I'm constantly going buying various 70's/early 80's stuff so that pile always gets added to before I finish it.

        Any issue of Marvel-Two-One: Once I completed the series I closed the box they are in and that was it. Strange since it's my favorite team up book.

          I haven't read the original Crisis on Infinite Earths for a long time. It might be fun to read now after all that is old is new again.
          It's all good!

            I haven't read this in probably 20 years. I wonder if it will still have the same effect on me. This series was very influential on me as a creator and artist. I need to get the trade and set aside an afternoon for it.

            I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

            If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                Totally agree on 'New Teen Titans (from DC Comics Presents #26 up through The Judas Contract)', Toyroom. Excellent story telling and art from Wolfman and Perez.., along with some Avengers and FF, was the only series I read in college. I was very disappointed with anything post-Judas. The Trigon arc was a bit heavy, then it just jumped shark when Wolfman and Perez left.

                Some of the '80s Marvel Limited Series is worth looking at again, like the original West Coast Avengers limited series.

                Captain America's Secret Empire saga would be a nice read, with Falcon getting his wings, and the Avengers-Defenders summer battle back in '73..

                1973: Now THAT was a year for excellent comics..!!
                Peace.. Through Superior Firepower.

                    Now that Planetary is complete, I'd love to pull it out again and start from the beginning. It was a pretty good story.

                      I just read the final volume of 100 Bullets and wish I had the time to go back and reread the series from the beginning to see how well the 100 issue storyline holds up overall.

                        I always wonder why this isn't usually included in the list of the must-read eighties superhero books alongside Watchmen and Dark Knight.

                        Does anyone have the first printing trade paperback? Mark Gruenwald's ashes were mixed into the ink used to print it! TRUE!

                          I'll definitely be getting the Absolute Planetary volumes. Well worth it to be able to look at the detail in Cassaday's art in large format. Particularly issues like the Monster Island one.

                              It's funny modern comics have left me so cold I have been re reading my collection for a while now

                              All star squadron and infinity inc (1-20) are still really great

                              I need to re read the Iron man demon in the bottle run from the early 80's before Rhodes became iron man
