Well I went to the comic book shop yesterday and really snagged me some awesome issues.
1) Batman #336-339 Batman: Year 3
This is the story of the release of Tony Zucco, the man responsible for killing Dick Grayson's (the orginial Robin, now Nightwing) parents release from prison. It is about the effect that it had on everyone, Alfred, Dick, and Bruce. And this is shortly after "A Death In The Family" in Batman #426-429 where the second Robin, Jason Todd was killed by the Joker. It reminds me why comics of old so far surpass anything done in this decade.
2) Incredible Hulk #330, 332, 333, 350
These are this issues that I was missing that make up the "Grey Hulk" storyline. This is where the persona of both Bruce Banner and the Hulk, come together to form a new hulk, with grey colored skin. This Hulk, although weaker in power as compared to the green Hulk, far surpasses the green Hulk in intelligence. In fact as he went on to take the name Mr. Fix-It and worked as hired muscle in Las Vegas as a mob inforcer. One of the best storyarcs of Hulk.
3) Batman #400
Haven't read it yet, but it has a forward by Stephen King.
4) Batman #441, 443
The missing issues I need for the "A Lonely Place of Dying" storyline, also very good.
5) The Saga of Ras Al Ghul
A reprinting of some of the classic clashes between Batman and Ras AL Ghul. One of Batman's most formitable foes.
Thought that I would relay some of the awesome comics that I got in my collection as of yesterday. The one thing that I was really looking for, I didn't get. I am only missing one issue of the "grey hulk" storyline. Incredible Hulk #340. Wish me luck in finding it and convincing my wife it is worth $50.
Take care all and thanks for stopping by.
