Revisiting any good trades, runs, comics or omni's during the self-quarantine?

I just pulled & read Robert Kirkman's Marvel-Team-Up run from 2005. Foor some reason I only bought the 1st 15 issues, but it was really good & wrapped around a central story that I never finished.

I have 4 of the EC classic runs which Comic Historian, Russ Cochran edited in the early 80's. I'd read Tales From The Crypt & Vault Of Horror a ton of times but had never read the complete Crime Suspence Stories which were written & drawn by the same crew. 27 issues & they were excellent. Most of the issues contained one tale hosted by The Old Witch, so you had a little dose of horror along with your crime stories.

I've read the 1st 2 complete Hellboy stories, both Seed Of Destruction & The Wolves Of Saint August which were both great. Hadn't read them since I bought them off the racks. The 1st Hellboy movie was based off of Seed.

Read my Essential Killraven trade. I have the run but it was fun to read the whole story in one book, even though it was in b&w.

I've read a bunch of Skywald, 70's horror from trade collections of Psycho, Nightmare & their Scream b&w magazines. Just really great examples of 70's horror that I've onle recently discovered. I plan on celebrating their books' cover on the next Halloween Covers thread.

Read a lot of the Byrne 1st FF omni. Not quite sure if it holds up as well as I wanted it too. Have also been perusing my Deadly Hands of Kung-Fu omnis.

Also managed to read my complete run Pacific's & finally Eclipse' Alien Worlds comic. It only ran 9 or so issues but it was groundbreaking with some of the industries' best illustrators of the early 80's including Stevens, Corben, Bolton & Jones.

I've been having some comic fun. What have you all been re-reading?

Batman/Judge Dredd: Judgment on Gotham



Then all the other Bat/Dredd stuff. Stories aren't spectacular or anything, I just love seeing those two on the same page.



I don't have the omnibus but I have the two MMW that have the material in it. Was really looking forward to getting the second printing this May.

I'm in the process of re-reading the entire Starman run (Including the Mist, Shade, Power of Shazam and Batman/Hellboy/Starman mini's) for the millionth time. LOL

I love Tony Harris' artwork.

I can quess it. Jojo is always one crazy fun roller coster ride. I haven't read it past part 3 yet, but part 3 was amazing.

I dunno, Jerry. Feels more like Gold than Silver, this me.
