Author Topic: DAWN of the $4 COMIC/soaring gas prices = dropping titles MLLASH bite into the all-caps posted                       I saw a DEAD @ 17 on the shelf today and liked the cover, almost thought about giving it a flip-thru. Maybe I will next time... Cobie, thanks for the advice... I will read your reviews! -------------------- Visit the FULL FRONTAL FANDANGO & laugh along with Lash at http://lashlaugh.wordpress.com/ Registered: Jul 2003  |  IP: Logged |  cleome46 or you can do the confusion 'til your head falls off posted                        I'm scratching my head here over the combo of price hikes and DC's apparent desire to NOT steer most readers into waiting for trades to come out. Uh... Okay. Maybe if I smoked more weed went to business school that would make some kind of sense. -------------------- Hey, Kids! My "Cranky and Kitschy" collage art is now viewable on flickr.

A lot are definitely worth a try. The Robert Kirkman / Todd McFarlane series Haunt is also $2.99 and I've been enjoying that as well...

Hopefully the Levitz/Superman combo (coupled with what I feel will be steadily improving story and art) will keep the LSH safe for a while... -------------------- Visit the FULL FRONTAL FANDANGO & laugh along with Lash at http://lashlaugh.wordpress.com/ Registered: Jul 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Cobalt Kid BOHICA posted                       Yeah, I hope so as well. It'll be interesting to see if because of the restored Superman connection, the Legion can regain a prominent place among the DC titles by default is a slew of other franchises are canceled. From: If you don't want my peaches, honey... | Registered: Sep 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Lard Lad Re-empowered! posted                        To be fair, I've read the article and nowhere in it does it state that all titles are automatically going up to $3.99 immediately. But yes, it'll probably gradually get to the point where Marvel is, with at least 75-80% of their books at that price point. DC regularly gets throttled by Marvel in sales, largely because most of DC's titles are three-quarters Marvel's regular price, and STILL fans keep buying Marvel's books. DC's held the line as long as it could, but ultimately big corporations are about big profits. It was inevitable, I suppose. I applaud DC for doing what it could to hold the price point as long as it did or attempt to give us more story for our extra dollar. I just hope the shift is gradual and doesn't turn line-wide overnight. Otherwise, it'll be a drop-apaloossa and TBP-apaloosa for me. -------------------- "Suck it, depressos!"--M.
