There have been several threads on both the DC and Marvel boards about issues/stories that have been reprinted to death, and are easily available to anyone who cares to read them, so I was wondering when did you first read the following, what reprinting was it (if it wasn't the original issue), and what did you think of it that first time?


There are so many more twice and thrice told tales out there that have been reprinted ad nauseam, maybe even more than these, but in my mind, these as some of the worst offenders for repetition.
