man, i hate buying entire seasons of a dvd. i'd much rather buy every single episode individually!
This is not really a good analogy
why
Most shows don't break up every story over four-five episodes each, let alone an eight to twelve episode season
It really is closer to splitting a movie up into fifteen minute chunks
Also in keeping with the TV thing, for shits in giggles, this is the equivalent of "I COULD buy this in episodes but instead I'll wait until it finishes in four months and then another three months for it to be released as a season
Ah, here it is. I prefer trades to singles. I do have a couple full runs though, which I will probably just keep that way. Fear Agent and Immortal Iron Fist, also a lot of mediocre miniseries.

I like trades for non-superhero stuff. I caught up on Fables and then couldn't get too into it monthly, so I tradewait it (and still haven't caught up on it in two or three years now)
Except for BKV's stuff. His is great monthly.

Well Amazon says it comes out the 18th, and they are shipping it to me along with the 3rd season of Dexter. So, as far as I'm concerned it comes out next week.

Hercules! Spider-Man! Ares! New Avengers! Wolverine! Mighty Avengers! The Agents of Atlas! If there's a bigger event this fall, we don't know what it could be! At long last, the Prince of Power takes the fight to his villainous stepmother Hera and the forces of the Olympus Group—just as she unleashes the most terrifying threat the Marvel Universe has ever seen! But first Herc has to gather together a star-studded strike force from the ranks of the New and the Mighty Avengers! First on the list: THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN! But why is Everyone's Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man fighting against Hercules? Has he joined the side of the dark gods? It's webs and wisecracks versus Olympian power in this super-sized one-shot! (There will be major property damage, we guarantee.) Plus: The iHerc team proudly welcomes our new INCREDIBLE HERCULES on-going back-up feature... THE AGENTS OF ATLAS, written by fan favorite scribe Jeff Parker! When the forces of New Olympus target Venus, will Jimmy Woo lead his team into the fray for or against Hercules' forces?

ASSAULT ON NEW OLYMPUS: Part 1 (of 4)
A battle of god-like proportions begins...right now! For months, the signs have been all over the Marvel Universe... The tension has been rising... All pointing to a single question: "What is CONTINUUM?" The answer turns out to be so deadly, so horrifying, that it will alter the course of the MU forever—unless Hercules and the New and Mighty Avengers can stop it in time... but standing in their way is the fighting-mad ARES, God of War! "And, in our backup tale, there's no love for Venus as Aphrodite's rain of pain continues to pour on the Agents of Atlas!"

also your mother is promiscuous
any simple analogy is going to fall apart under enough scrutiny
I believe my side of that argument but am too dumb/lazy to elucidate
we rock
because you are a grumpy gus
(and possibly gay)
your definition of fun sometimes vastly differs from mine
in my own estimation I do fun things all the time
Hardcover trades are great until you are carrying three of them around and drop them on your foot. Then you sorta wish you had paper trades then.
Trades wouldn't cause the comic industry to collapse
Its refusal to change is what will cause it to collapse
Which one?
Kinda looking forward to that just because I like period pieces and I like Frank killing things

haha
that is pretty funny
the first issue was great though!
I don't have a problem with trades, I just like being able to get my stories faster
I typically only buy trades of stuff it it came out before I was reading comics
i.e. transmet, sandman, starman, the question
that or the help me get caught up on a series I wasn't reading already
screw looking for back issues
I basically never start a series in the middle
I wait for a relaunch, or for a new creative team to take over
I also buy a lot of first issues
