OK guys. Do I need to get the whole series, or just go until the Wraith-thing is over?

Ok, DOM made me literally laugh out load, actually the wheezing kind of laughter Deluise was known for.

Brian, to get through the whole Wraith-thing, you'd want to go to #66 (which does serve as a fairly decent final issue), at which point there's only 9 issues and an annual left so you might as well get the whole shebang. 

The remaining issues are basically a "what happens to the warriors now that the war is over" kind of thing, with each issue from #67-71 focusing on checking in with other Spaceknights and annual #4 getting him back home.  Then there's a Secret Wars II crossover picking up on the people Rom left behind on Earth and the three part finale story (which admittedly is a something of a downer although there is a bit of happiness of sorts).

That Secret Wars II crossover is the only issue I have of the series.

Thanks for the info, Dave!

One issue near the end of ROM has the first instance I've seen of Steve Ditko inked by Joe Sinnott.

Even Ditko's poor output on the series and during that span in general gets a boost from Sinnott's inks. I get the feeling anything would be better under Sinnott inks.

The local used books/games shop just got in an entire collection of ROM comics!  I don't know how much he's planning to sell them for, but I thought some of you might be interested....
