Well, I'm sorry DC fucked you over. I can't speak to that since I refuse to give them my money.

To continue your analogy, if you say "I want ice cream" people will likely ask "what kind of ice cream do you like?" and point you in that direction. No having to make it but you need to know what you want before you order. THAT is what google and wikis are good for. Going in informed on what you want rather than just flailing around randomly expecting people to read your mind.

And if your analogy held, you'd have to sit down, write and draw your own comics, get it printed... nobody's asking you to do that. They're trying to help by getting an idea of what you want. That is so not the same thing.

The analogy is that people are asking for something, self-contained American comics, and being told that if they want any of the popular well known ones they can't do that.

I suppose a better analogy would be like buying a video game console, and buying a video game, lets say "Super Awesome Shooter" and then partway through it goes "Please insert the video game Whammo Blammo to continue." and you have to go out and buy another video game, and bring it home, plug it in, play the chapter of Super Awesome Shooter, go back to the actual SAS disk, and play a bit more and then "Please insert Boom Boom to continue" and you have to go out and buy Boom Boom and put in the disk and... and then you get near the end and suddenly Hero from Dead Death Destruction pops up and you help him with his final chapter from his video game which is on the SAS disk even though it has little to nothing to do with SAS.

There's a reason the video game industry doesn't do that.

There's a very simple solution to this actually. Buy trade paperbacks. I can't speak to DC but damn near every story Marvel puts out ends up in a self contained volume all together in one place.

Again, just ask clearly for what you want and there's probably an answer.
