Hi gang, I started about two years ago to buy the archives. I bought Superman 1, 2 then 3 and 4, a little later 5. Then Action Comics archives 3 came up...and I bought it. Love these but they ain't exactly free... I got a good deal from amazon.ca - ACtion 1 and 2 for $110.00 - I only started reading last night... Wow! What a different Superman... I didn't think that the comic was that "primitive" (well to the later on standards...). But, I love the social stories. Superman might still be a great comic but I miss the "end" at the end of a comic. I also miss seeing Superman take care of the little people personally. Friend. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Archive Editions are SRP as $49.95 US or $82.95 Canadian.That's why $110. for two is a good buy in the great white north. IP: Logged |

Hi, Nothing if you mean "objects" like food but I've found coffee stains and so on. If I ever read and eat something, or drink, it's really a turnoff to find a stain you can't identify... Friend. ------------------ IP: Logged |

WOW! I've just finished the first volume of Action. I can't believe how the stories we're great. I just love Superman who saves the little guy. I was a giant fan before but it's only getting better! Friend. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Canada's Amazon.ca does the same thing like the US amazon.com store, offers books over the $30 cover price at a discount of 30% off. Instead of the $82.00 Canadian price, after the 30% discount, we only pay around the $50-$60 CDN price range (depending after taxes, etc.). Its still a bargain at least. I would not be able to pay over $80 per Archive on a regular basis. I've been there since the first Superman Archive, and enjoy the classic, Golden Age Superman stories. Just need to read Superman Archives volumes 4 and 5, and Action vol. 3. Don't forget, the black & white newspaper strips of Superman in the three volumes of Superman: The Dailies and companion volume, Superman: The Sunday Classics, are all worth getting too! IP: Logged |

Hi, I did pay for a few at the 80+ with taxes... It really hurt my wallet... BUT, these books are really great... I just wish that we'd have at least one ACtion Comics Archive per year. We'd eventually get to some classic first time great villains! Friend. ------------------ IP: Logged |
Anyway it's about 1.40 for 1.00 u.s.!!! Regular on both would be about 160.00 plus taxes and shipping!!!All times are ET (US) | next newest topic | next oldest topic |
