Hmmm I'm glad there is only ONE classic HC this month...
The problem for me (since I started the stupid numebred edition so now I'm still trying to find teh strengh to break the circle) is that these HC are no longer "classics" but just a tool for costly reprint of old stuff in conjonction with novelty (can you hear iron man movie ?)
But when you see a 20$ for 4 issues of illyana mini series, with a bunch of covers and marvel Universe data especially when these can be bought @ 4 bucks in back issues, it's harsh.
The problem is I guess they are starting to rely on hard collector to sell those but that base is shrinking ( the number on the limited dust jacket are shriking too)
So of course the less you print the more costly it is but hey.. now they have upped their prices, there is no way they drop it even if people start buying more.Especially when you see the collection is now deeply rooted in promotional marketing.
So so far I still buy the stuff but I sacrifice other marvel series in order to do so. and the more they put out (especially high priced) the less other marvel stuff will be bought
I'm down to 3 ongoing (from 4) but I keep skipping mini series too because of the high prices of these babies.
