Neither. Marvel has nothing worth reading at the moment. I'd go back and pick up Ultimate Spider-Man or New Avengers TPBs from the start.

Astonishing Spider-Man has been quite great recently.

If it's more movie characters you are after you could try Marvel Legends which has a Cap, Thor, & Iron Man story every issue.

^ guess it's up to yo' just how you get your comics.

(1) pop down local comic book store and pick 'em up
(2) buy from an eBay shop and have them delivered
(3) buy from a webstore and also have them delivered.

Me: http://www.disposableheroes.co.uk/index.php <- get mine from here. If you know which titles you'll be following for the forseeable future then you are able to pay in advance; or if you want to buy weekly then you can do that too.

There are other webstores out in internet land but that's the one I use

info: if you buy a whole load, they will do a weekly send out of everything that arrived for you that week, and they send it in an A4 hardbacked envelope, comics all bagged and boarded. - post+packaging being free !!

other stores offer a monthly send out using a super hard cardboard fold out delivery thing (think brick!) and charge p+p.

At the back of those Panini UK Collectors Editions, there's usually a Subscribe page that gives a telephone number.

Or you could try their website: http://www.paninicomics.co.uk/web/guest/subs
