The Vertigo Mega Trades List

[dancj]

I just want to know why there's a trade of a Papa Midnight mini-series, and yet they still haven't collected the rest of Delano, all of Ennis or any of Jenkins.

It's like they just want to piss me off.

Others would disagree with me, but in the case of Delano and Jenkins I'd say they weren't collected because they're not that great. The Ennis stuff is stupidity on Vertigo's part.

As for Papa Midnight, that's recent. Mosts comics that come out these days are collected, but for older comics it's less of a given.

I like Delano's first trade.

But is the Jenkins stuff really that bad that it doesn't deserve a trade, or wouldn't sell as a trade?

I read the Hellblazer story he had in the first Winters Edge and quite liked it.
I also read issue #120 where John took the reader on a tour of London and that was quite enjoyable.

I like the Jenkins run pretty well, especially the first two-thirds or so while Sean Phillips was the artist. I'd say it's definitely worth collecting, and has an undeservedly bad reputation. I finally gave up on them being given the TPB treatment, and fortunately they can be had pretty cheaply as back issues. The Delano run, OTOH, is fairly pricey. I've enjoyed the scattered issues I've read, but I don't know how well the run would read as a whole.

Has a Kid Eternity trade come out? I believe I saw it in Previews.

Yeah, about two weeks or so ago. I already picked it up; it's not bad I guess, but I'll probably never read it again. (PM me if you want to work out a trade or a deal.)

I got about halfway through last week, but just haven't picked it back up since (to be fair though, I have been working and caught up in a book).

It's alright, but far from great.

It's not all that bad. If it was coming out now it would probably be collected, but older stuff doesn't get collected as much as current stuff

No, Last Castle was a "Prestige Format" One-shot, which puts it somewhere inbetween a single issue comic and what is traditionally labeled as an OGN. Amazon almost never has Prestige Format comics listed. It's collected in the March of the Wooden Soldiers TPB.
