Any word whether they will ever release the JLAdv issues in TPB form??

Brilliant idea!
I think they should collect issues #4, #6, #11, and #13. :)

yeah those were some pretty good..hey wait..I see what you're getting at...sneaky..

Anywho, I imagine if they come out with one, they'd collect the first few issues or so--like they did with Gotham Adventures.

I imagine after the series has been out for over a year (and it's coming up! #12 hitting on Oct. 2nd...), it might happen..

I hope so. I've heard good things about JLAdv; supposedly, most of the issues are even better than the cartoon.

I wouldn't be surprised if DC does this eventually, but I wouldn't count on one soon. But with the new season approaching, DC may want to get some TPBs into the bigger book chains. If DC does do a trade, it'll likely be the first 5 - 6 issues as they do with most of their trades.

What for? The adventures comics are 88% never as good as the show they are based on. I say this as a man who owns all the animated series trades that have come out so far and who has atempted to read all the animated titles on a regular basis.

Superman Adventures quickly just turned into writers excuse to do Silver Age type Superman stories (which STAS while classical was *not* Silver Age Supes). In JL they have John Stewart creating baseball bats and Flash turning into a paper-thin version of himself.

I'd love to be able to read the Adventures comics and like them because it would give me what the shows give me, which is a wonderful alternative to the cluttered and ugly mainline DCU.

But it seems to me that DC clearly just views these as the "kiddie" books and theres no effort to match the level of drama andactions that the shows provide. Its all just quaint wacky tales that finish in one issue.

I guess it because DC knows that if they did make a good JL TAS comics with killer art it'd blow the mainline book out of the water. DC will never admit that the various TAS series did a better job than all their Crisis on Infinite Zero Hour Hypertime rebooting.
