Seems like this picks off right where "Man of steel vol 1-9" leaves of. Do you think we'll eventually get all major storylines published in TPB form? It doesn't make sense to re-print some of the "still in print" storylines, but others are pretty hard to get, and it would be cool to have them collected! <br />el toque debe continuar.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13396402265308713864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-58354242401843430912016-08-07T22:34:29.220-05:002016-08-07T22:34:29.220-05:00I'm sure someone has answered this ahead of me...I'm sure someone has answered this ahead of me, but the the only issue of Hellblazer that has never been collected is issue 229.

It's eerie, fun, fast paced, and has some humor too. Bloodspell is also flat out awesome, I highly recommend that one too.<br /><br />I've always liked the character and I suppose it's a mixture of things: the magic elements (I cop to loving her saying spells backwards, just a fun character quirk), her ties to other magic/mystic characters at DC, and let's not forget she's a fetching creature, to boot. I have a soft spot for a lot of DC's underappreciated characters (Hawkman and Doctor Fate, I'm talking about you), so I really don't know why. I like underdogs? I dunno. All I know is Zatanna rocks.Words Seem Out of Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07451039503763176725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-84075478227535988462016-08-01T15:08:28.146-05:002016-08-01T15:08:28.146-05:00I don't know much about the obsession part, bu...I don't know much about the obsession part, but I would think Dini just wrote a good Zatanna.
