    Good Idea, I replaced Amazing Spider-Man 2014 vol.1&2 by the Spider-Verse Omnibus.

    I also added some Ultimate Spider-Man with The Death of Spider-Man

    @eto:

    I use mycomicshop.com a fair bit to buy back issues and TPB's.

    Milehighcomics.com is another site I have used. Very large inventory of stock.

    Bookdepository.com is an English website I have been using a lot lately. They carry a ton of books as well as comic book TPB's.

    Another one I've used on rare ocassions is NewKadia.com. They seem to have a reasonable amount of stock.

    Hope that helps. ?

    @magnetic_eye: yeah, I use book depository as well. It's awesome. No shipping costs!!!

    I can't find some stuff though. For example, Bates' 80s run on Captain Atom, they don't have it.

    I checked the other sites, but the shipping costs are killing me. Thanks anyway :D

    • Superior Spider-Man,
    • Untold Tales of Spider-Man,
    • Astonishing Spider-Man,
    • Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man,
    • The sensational Spider-Man,
    • Ultimate Spider-Man

    Marvel should renew their offer.

    Thanks! I bought my copy a few years ago now along with the F4 and Avengers. They're great.

    Nice, but now Amazing Spider-Man vol.3 goes up to issue #700, and there is Spider-Man: Renew your vows #1-5 and Amazing Spider-Man vol.4 #1-26. This also excludes all the other Spider-Man titles:

    • Web of Spider-Man,
    • Spectacular Spider-Man,
    • Superior Spider-Man,
    • Untold Tales of Spider-Man,
    • Astonishing Spider-Man,
    • Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man,
    • The sensational Spider-Man,
    • Ultimate Spider-Man

    Marvel should renew their offer.

    Yeah I don't think Marvel will do it. They put a stop to the licensing deal that Git-Corp had with them in producing those DVD-ROM collections, so that they could charge people to read back issues through their online subscription service. That's why I'm so glad I picked mine up when I did as copies floating around online now can be quite pricey. You often see them on Ebay and Amazon.

    Impressive list, I pretty much have all those titles in my collection except for Superior which I abhor and post Vol 1 of USM which I lost interest in.

    bump, any missing suggestion ? I haven't been reading the new stuff and haven't looked at the new tpbs.
