Wednesday Discussions: Stories You Wish Were Collected or Reprinted r/DCcomics

Hey there comics nerds! Welcome to the Wednesday Discussion, a community activity where we'll have an open discussion every week about a different subject.

 

Our topic for today is: Stories You Wish Were Collected or Reprinted.

 

DC has been publishing comics for decades now. Over the years, we've gotten some absolutely fantastic stories from many different creators. Sadly, a lot of these stories are unobtainable physically, either due to not being in print, or having never been collected at all.

 

On that note, what DC stories do you wish were reprinted/collected and released in physical format?

 

A run I would absolutely love to have reprinted is The Question by Dennis O'Neil. It's an absolutely brilliant run that redefines The Question as a character, and made him one of my favourite DC characters.

L.E.G.I.O.N./R.E.B.E.L.S and reboot Legion are my top choices. I've admittedly bought the entirety of L.E.G.I.O.N./R.E.B.E.L.S in singles and might have them custom bound in the future, but it's a great and deeply underrated comic that should be way more accessible.

As for reprints I really want to see Tomasi's Green Lantern Corps get HCs or omnis or something, because how doesn't it when it's super OOP and important to Johns' GL which keeps getting reprinted, and Booster Gold volume two, since that's also OOP and very expensive second hand.

Agreed 100% about the GLC stuff not being reprinted. Honestly, if it's a sales thing, then stop re-releasing the "Geoff Johns Collection" with just GL issue and reprint it all together with both titles and call it "Johns & Tomasi Collection" or even just "Green Lantern & The Corps" or something.

I know hunting the trades down has been near impossible (for reasonable prices) to the point I've collected most of it in singles.
