Well, that's a shiny idea. I've got the first three Sandman, a random Crow, and...probably other things I'm not entirely aware of.
Unfortunately, almost all the recent Bat-books are like that, especially considering you wanted a good introduction to the Bat Family.
Yeah, I know. I wasn't surprised. Just, sixteen hour bus ride and I sooooo wanted to know what happened next.
However, I am feeling very guilty, and I would be willing to lend you my copies, if you want.
Dude, feel no guilt. I'll read them eventually.
I could ad a few things like the
Elementals, Excalibur,
and
Longshot
trade paperbacks. But anyone who wants my
Sandmans
or
Prometheas
to leave my apartment had best convince ita to collect them and arm her really, really well.

For Sandman, no one need convince me of anything.
Damn, Matt. We hardly knew ye.
Uh, I have 1-6. Dibs on Matt's #7!

You mean Promethea, right?
Right?
Dibs on Matt's Promethea!
Pfft. Like I read Sandman ...

Fortunately my system of (dis)organization is such that any particular issue of Sandman might be hidden behind issues of Armaggedon 2001 or Young Heroes in Love that I've not gotten around to burning yet. The trauma of wading through page after page of Don Heck artwork and Scott Lobdell dialogue might protect my precious collection even after I'm lying in a crumpled heap.
So, it turns out that last week Michele was correct in doubting my hopeless enthusiasm:
The Escapist
Volume 2 is off of this week's ship list and is not projected on next week's (although an $18 version of Volume 1 is on next week's list). I haven't bothered to check Datk Horse to see what the new release date might be.
With regard to the possible circulation joint venture, I would be willing to contribute some TPBs, including
Y: The Last Man, Fables, The Escapist, Death,
several
Buffys, Sandman Presents,
and some assorted others. Since I'm still trying to convince DH to read Sandman, those aren't leaving my sight. Who knows when he might decide to read them?
