Chew the Fat: Final issues of Your Favorite Comics...




Redartz:  Welcome, everyone! Today we will look at 'the end of the line' for some of our favorite comic titles. First issues are always enticing, and are generally popular- generating some extra sales interest. But how about last issues? Sometimes a title will simply change to a different title (say, Marvel Collector's Item Classics became Marvel's Greatest Comics). Sometimes a comic will end with an accompanying finale to it's primary characters, say Man-Thing's first series. And then, occasionally a title will end, just leaving us hanging (Omega the Unknown, anyone?). Aaand of course, you have the current trend of simply rebooting a title and starting over with issue number 1 again. 

Here we present a selection of some final issue covers. Sorry I can't say more, I'm too choked up at seeing a good comic end...



















Do any final issues stand out in your memory? Any that became particular items of collector interest? Any favorite classic finale stories? Go ahead and add your epilogue to the tale...
