Hi guys, am pretty new here..and only registered after noticing this topic..
I'm still buying comics...but only X-men related titles..it's not as good as it was in the 90s but recently there's a new event in the X-men universe.."The Messiah Complex",which is excellent..

I'm currently collecting :

Uncanny X-men
X-men
New X-men
and Exiles...

oh and i notice eric wrote bout comics mart@midvalley..i bought all my comics there...since last year..kinda realiable..definately better than that comic shop at Bangsar Shopping Center..just FYI

Thanx Madstone! & Eric
I don't collect ultimate, cause i guess i don't have the budget LOL!
I wanted to collect X-Factor too but as above..no budget.

Eric...I love Psylocke too!..i only started collecting x-men as I heard she was resurrected...and move on to Exiles, as she's in that tittle now.

"Psylocke? Hmmm. I reckoned you must be the Jim Lee's period of collector circa Uncanny X-Men # 256 - 258?? Nice artwork and you did mentioned 90's"
sorry I'm really blur in this forum stuff

Spot on..I'm from those days.Actually I really don't remember the writers2 or who did what.But I do remember Jim Lee biggrin.gif

thanx for the welcome zergg,
yeah i enjoy this guys here...really hardcore..at least someone knows what I'm talking bout..all my friends don't have a clue tongue.gif

anyhoo, the issue u mentioned I have most of em except the X-men 2 series..but they are not in the greatest condition...that time after reading i just put it aside anywhere.wasn't very carefull b4 this

madstone : yup that's what i heard...but like the original xmen title she transfered herself to an asian chic, at least the transfer is not as confusing in the original series

But Betsy Braddock really something, u know
kinda like that character when 1st bought Ultimate X-Men, but when they cut her from Ult X-Men, i kinda go with the story
even Beast also died in Ult X-Men  cry.gif

Guess what, beast is still alive, from what I heard..I don't collect Ult X-men due to funding issues however I do keep track of what's happening..
Do you have any pics of Ult Psylocke? cause I can't find it anywhere in the net..even wikipedia..

zio : yeah seems like ult x-men is also pretty fast.

lol..i collect ultimate x-men as well..the paperback ones.. i don't know much about the new episode as well le.. so no worries..i just read about the beast thing on wikipedia..
ive always wanted 2 collect the uncanny x-men..but its just too much...
*
I know how you feel man, if i'm that rich I'll definately buy all the X-Titles
BTW just FYI there are rumours that Uncanny X-men will be canceled around issue#500 , after the messiah complex Event

So can i suggest, if u want...try new X-men (which will actually end this month..but will continue in Young X-men)...the new X-kids are pretty cool..reminded me a lot of the New Mutant days

lol..yeap...once messiah complex is done with...the uncanny x-men will have the #500 episode..and then its to be replaced with x-men legacy..

generally i think the omnibus is not my type...im not really into the old comic drawings...lol..i prefer the current ones...i've seen the list of uncanny x-men paperbacks available..but there's like...26 or more, not including certain crossovers....$$$
*
wayamna/eric : yes and no

after messiah complex, supposedly they are going to cancel Uncanny X-men@ issue 500
X-men 2nd series will be change to X-men Legacy
New X-Men will be continued in April with Young X-men(this comic is for the younger xmen)
i'm not sure bout astonishing though, cause i don't collect that

all of this have been confirmed, maybe except the cancelation of uncanny xmen..
hope it's not confusing

Yes, Messiah Complex???

thanezra - bad news, apparently that particular issue just sold out.  You got 2 options :

1. Get Messiah Complex HC Edition coming out soon
2. Get single issue from nearby comic shop or... bulk order with me from Mile High Comics later middle of this year.

awwww mann,that's ok u tried...so i guess it's up to comic marts to make me happy
and let's say after another month i don't get it..maybe i'll need ur help then..

MCtea13, dude...ur collection and condition..woah much?..my collection back in the 90s are mostly..destroyed..serves me right for just stacking it up in the attic...and it's good to hear that there are single issue collector still...i, like u collect the single monthly issue..

btw..to all..i guess Comics Mart @ midval is starting to get up on its feet again..apparently everything went to hell after the regular front desk lady quit.it seems ok now since i'm getting my monthly comics again ..so if intrested..drop by there..
