You have to wonder if the prices could come back down if they changed back to a cheaper paper. I know that one of the aspects of the Marvel Essential line that I enjoy is the newsprint and that they smell the way comics used to smell.

It's the little things that make me smile.

Yeah, I prefer the newsprint paper over the glossy. I think at least a few comics should be published in the old format, for a cheaper cover price. Heck, make it a monthly variant of a popular title. The completists out there would end up buying both versions, and the guy who just wants to read the new stories would be in luck too.
