My picks:
DC COMICS
Jack Kirby's The Demon (In color)
More of those JLA/JSA Team-up Collections
More Greatest Stories Ever Told tpb (Green Lantern, Aquaman, Hawkman, etc)
A trade of old Metal Men reprints would be cool
I also want a collection of Curt Swan Superman stories
Those Super Powers limited series might sell well collected considering the popularity of the two line with collectors and the fact that Kirby was involved!
MARVEL COMICS
The Foolkiller limited series would make a great trade
More Spider-Man trade! Let's get more of the 1970s stuff collected in color!
How about a collection of the old Sub-Mariner & Human Torch comics from Timely
Byrne's Fantastic Four should be collected
Perhaps a line of Greatest Stories Ever Told for various Marvel characters (Spidey, Hulk, Captain America, Iron Man, X-Men, Fantastic Four, etc.).
A What If collection reprinting the first series with that name
MISC. COMICS
Harvey Collections - Someone needs to reprint the old Harvey Comics such as Casper, Richie Rich, Hot Stuff, Baby Huey, etc.
TV Show Comics - In the 1950s and 1960s it seemed that almost every tv show (and many movies) had comic books. The trend continued to a lesser extent beyond that time and there are even several comics today based on tv shows (Smallville, CSI). Considering that many of those tv shows from the 1950s and 1960s are now considered classics, it would be nice to get tradepaperback collections of those. Get Smart, The Beverly Hillbillies, The Andy Griffith Show, Jackie Gleason & The Honeymooners, Bewitched, Star Trek, Bonanza, The Lone Ranger, Gunsmoke, Hogan's Heroes, Leave It to Beaver, I Dream of Jeannie, I Love Lucy, and The Three Stooges would all sell well as collections sold in bookstores. Those shows all have devoted followings who are eager for more collectibles. The stuff probably would not sell well in comic shops, but it would do well in bookstores, reaching an audience that wouldn't normally be purchasing comic books.
