Honestly if i like the book i do actually buy them either the day after they drop or wait for the collected edition. There's no way I'm spending my money on all those bs comics I used to take gambles on. Especially when they're 3-4 bucks a pop, this time last year i was spending like 60-70 bucks a week on heavy weeks and another 20 or 30 on light weeks. I'm probably one of the few that will actually buy if i like it.

I spent $30 last week and that was the heaviest week I've had since I started buying comics again in May.
which is why I download, especially when it comes to the events
Image alone is close to 20 a week give or take, some weeks it's more. About 2 weeks ago i bought about 7 image comics by the time i was done i was at $66
and these are all on books i actually like. Could have easily doubled that if i didn't dl a lot of it.

At least Image is good about releasing trades for a good price.

I wait on trades and cop at a shop that sells them for 40% off. I'll only cop certain first issues or mini series.
Other than that I just pick from the 50 cent or dollar bins when I can

Have I mentioned Mockingbird is one of my favorite series going today?
New Avengers (the one with Squirrel Girl, Songbird, etc): I've been saying since the book started that the problem is the art.
