Finished Black Glove Deluxe that I bought ages ago, and wondered about the gaps in my collection, so started to look at the GN I am missing. After looking at this, I wish I had not bothered

Stick your hands in the air if you are sad enough to spend two hours going through a list to cross reference against chronological order versus graphic novels owned?

Picking up some slack with some Bronze Age HC's

Just ordered:

Legion Of Super-Heroes: The Curse

Spider-Man: Nothing Can Stop The Juggernaut MPC

Marvel Masterworks Iron Fist Vol 2

Pre-ordered the Iron Man Omnibus (Michelinie, Layton & Romita Jr) for £48 from Amazon....Bargain

Soundwave

In regards to what you did with the Chronological order there I thought..."hmmm wonder what The Trade Reading Guide will offer in the way of a list of Batman books??"

So this morning I had a peek & what they found was 404 books!!!

The Trade Paperback Reading Order

It's spread over 9 pages & includes books from other DC characters that fit into the correct Batman timeline including titles from Catwoman / Superman / JLA etc.

So it's going to be a LONG & very expensive hobby if you fancy doing it properly

Lol, the link is classed as 'weapons' at work here

I heavily consolidated my list from the links above, removing collected reprints from Robin or other non core Batman titles. I doubt I will even get the entire list I posted, and I thought I already had Dark Victory, RIP (Sure I bought the hardback from FP?) and one or two of the others.

I also own most of the 26 part Batman and Robin comics as I did start to collect them as there were only 26 - I think I only need 1 and 17  so I may pass on them, or simply not bother picking up the singles and sell on what I have to grab the trades.

Edit: Plus some of the trades are on *really* cheap paper. I think War games was one of the ones I was lookingat in FP recently, and it just makes the book feel cheap and then ruins the story. No that is not a very good explanation, but I know what I mean.
