As much as I dug the whole Infinite Crisis shindig (especially Villains United) I think it has had the opposite of its intended effect on me. As someone who wants trades for posterity but has certain books that I am compelled to keep up with, it was a bad move. Suddenly there's a good stopping point in every single book I read. I can just stop now and only buy trades from here on out.

Well, until Morrison and Dini start on the Batman books, those I will happily buy in singles and then someday pay a girl $1,000,000 to have sex with me on top of them.
