If i don't like what i read, i won't have any desire to upgrade though just like anyone.

I believe Chritopher Priest is a big enough name as a comic book writer to get a Deluxe with a Superman Maxi Series, but the book didn't have a very big hype around it while it was coming out monthly. I don't see any praises of it anywhere... So there is that as well.
I donate my TPB books to the local library when I trade up to HC, Deluxe HC, Absolute Edition or Omnibus format. They always really appreciate these donations.

No, that would be too much, i can't afford that. I already have hard time getting whatever i get as American Comics. It is way too expensive for Turkiye standarts that an avarage Turkish citizen can't afford American Comics. I rather save those trade money to get the omnibuses that i want.

I do some help though. I send money to Greenpeace, Unicef and Peta each month and i send money to Red Crescent whenever they ask.

I understand taking the affordable route. I also send money to a wide variety of charities. I?m just a big believer in public libraries and love donating books, not just graphic novels, to them when I can.

I just finished the TPB of Superman: Lost and I?d say don?t bother. It?s an unnecessarily complicated, convoluted and, frankly, poorly constructed story. There?s a lot that doesn?t tie together or resolve properly and I just felt Christopher Priest just got way over his skis early on and just couldn?t right himself or this story by the end.
