Back in August, South Louisiana had its worst flood on record. As I mentioned in a previous post, I lost everything: Home, cars, furniture and 33 years of comic collecting. At my age, this is no longer about financial gain but just wanting the stories I loved and hoping to pass these onto my son, should he want to collect. So, I'm building a collection of trades.
I'm starting with the 80's. This is the decade I stated collecting with and want to require the stories and runs that defined that period. I'm asking you fine folks to help fill in anything I've missed. So, please, if you can think of anything, let me know.

I would include DeFalco/Frenz on Amazing Spider-Man and maybe the O'Neill/Mazzuchelli Daredevil's as well.
Michelinie/Bright/Layton on Iron Man would make my list also.

I'd add Mike Grell's Jon Sable: Freelance to the independents list and probably Alien Legion to Marvel/Epic.

Also, in Hardcover...

Those are solid lists. I personally enjoyed X-Men thru 200 or so, early New Mutants, and the post Crisis Justice League for awhile. I also really like the Brave and Bold Aparo stuff.
