Well, what is your favorite way to collect your comcis? Single issues, omnibus/OHC, TPB, etc? For me, when it's one of my favorite runs, I like to own all of the single issues.

Singles, but when they come out in TPB then I sell my singles to get the TPB instead

Singles here. As much as I would like to switch to TPB and save money, I just feel like a better collector grabbing single issues. Plus, it's easier and more often
Avengers, Daredevil, Fantastic Four, FF, Hawkeye, New Avengers
Animal Man, Batman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Justice League
Saga, Thief of Thieves.

I like trades, but I suspect the IPad when I finally get one, is going to become my main choice. Everytime I go to best buy and load the Marvel app (which I did again today) I just drool over it. McNiven and Brubaker's Captain America 1, and Copiel's Thor 1, look so, SO good on that screen! (they're free right now too)

I buy mostly trades, but sometimes OHCs/Omnibuses. Ocasionally I'll buy singles if they're discounted enough to justify it (i.e. must be significantly cheaper than the trade).

Omnibus is my favourite but there are a relatively few number of omnis released.
So I buy floppies for a few series and trades/HCs for anything else I want to read.

TBP/HC/Omnibus. That's the only way I can collect comic books, because there isn't any comic book stores in hometown, so I have to order them from amazon.co.uk, but that's ok with me since they are so cheap there
