You guys remember those right? The merging of 2 characters or teams by Marvel and DC about a decade ago. I don't know how many there were but I think it would make a nice checklist if anybody has or knows of one. Most of the time when I see these I see them in dumpster dives. About the only one I am surprised didnt do better is the Legend of the Dark Claw. Not that I am calling it good, but because it combined 2 of the hottest characters for each company. I'd have to feel like these were way over produced, but it seems like others I don't see very often. Which one has the lowest print run? Do any of these ever have any potential? I know the 1st thought would be an immediate "no".... but try and include the uniqueness factor and then figure another 10 - 20 years into the mix. Anything then? Plain and simply, will history EVER be kind to Amalgam comics?

Thanks for that brother j ;D
Interesting stuff. Wow, only 24 comics. Seems easy enough to get. I would imagine I have about 8 of them. When they came out, I had very little interest in them. Today, probably a lot more than I had then. I guess because they are a unique set and I always go for stuff that can be deemed unique in the middle of mainstream comics. I might buy more when I see these in dumpsters. But I wouldnt pay much for them.
