Hi Tom - I am a big fan of anthology comics but i understand that the sales are usually not there. I am curious though as to why we see numerous ‘anthology’ trade paperbacks (Cap vs the Red skull, Hulk greatest battles, the best of JRJR, etc) from the big Two publishers that keep coming out. Do they sell well? is there a market for this? 

I ask because for me a trade paperback usually represents a complete story and not a collection of unfinished tales under one ‘theme’.

I hope that was clear and thank you in advance for taking the time to answer fan questions - much appreciated.

John
