Wrong kind of comic books. This is more my style

Heh, I ended up picking up a 1000 page Archie comic book with my free $5 credit. I really wanted to use it on the latest Skullkickers, but issue #27 got pushed back past the credit expiration date.

Picking up the freebies though, they might be good.

It took me awhile to understand what was going on (I haven't slept all night!), hilarious.

They do have some of the daily newspaper comics collections.

Hoping for some variety this time around.

Those 1000 page Archie editions are a bit misleading. They're all in 3 parts, @ $4.99 each, and all 3 *add up to* 1000 pages. So, $15 for 1,000 pages, which is still a pretty good deal--but not as good as it might initially seem!

Here's an Archie deal I found on Amazon, which might be a pricing mistake: http://www.amazon.com/Archie-Married...e+married+life It's a full 6-issue volume for .99, currently--275 pages.

Thanks for that. Nice find!

The 1,000 series are 328 pages. Which is equal to about 13 Archie issues. After a few weeks, those go to being $1.99 a pop, which is $25.87 in total not including taxes.

So getting the 1,000's all together are like getting 40 of those single issues that would cost you $79.60 (again not including tax).

They are misleading, but that's what the volume numbers are for, and those of us that do buy collections like these, understand that.
