More obscure recommendations please!  I am reading Sandman Mystery Theatre (through first arc).  How did I ever miss this?  Should I read the entire series or just the Wagner/Davis stuff?  Also have Dalgoda on my reading pile along with Night Force.  Much more fun than reading new releases which i haven't missed at all in the last month.

Amazing art from cover to cover on this issue. It doesn't get any better.

The entire thing!

This might not be obscure, but I think it's fallen off a lot of people's radar. I loved this series when it came out and it was one of the first comic stories I ever read completely.

Loved that series.  I need to re-read.

Both these titles. Both created by the co-creator of Captain America Joe Simon.

Both would make interesting TV shows or movies, especially Prez.

A few Marvel series I thought were fun.

These comics were a lot better than some of the modern stuff now, and deserve a second look.

Not sure it qualifies as obscure but this is a series that one can read again and again but is never much referred to -

I used to do the digital coloring on this book. It was very difficult as DC would want like a 3% cyan or whatever and on screen it was impossible to see on screen. I would read it as I colored it and thought it was a cool read.

Loved Crystar back then. Such a different look than other books at the time IIRC. I am guessing this is never going to Marvel Unlimited b/c of licensing issues. I guess I'll have to look for the originals.

Good news. Marvel owns the license.

The toys were first sold in late 1982; the Marvel Comics series was first published in the spring of 1983.[1] Since the toys were released first, many assumed the comic had been a licensed adaptation of the toyline, but Crystar and all of the characters in the toy line and comic book were created and owned by Marvel Comics, which had created the concept with the express intent of selling the license to a toy company.
