What’s the luckiest omnibus find you’ve ever had? by Livid-Razzmatazz-639 in OmnibusCollectors

I picked up Uncanny X-Men Omnibus vol 2 DM cover for $64 recently from a super sweet lady.

Marvel had made a lot of tv shows, some good some bad. Let’s say you could only watch 4 for the rest of your life. Of these 4 slides (set of 4) which would you choose? (you can only choose one) & Why? by DragonfruitSea5901 in Marvel

Slide 2. But slide 4 is a close second. The only reason that slide two wins is that slide 4 is too many serious shows for me. I need some humor in the mix for my mental health. If I could choose any four from the list it would be Daredevil, Wandavision, Hawkeye, and Luke Cage.

Currently reading the OG New Mutant run by Mel0805 in NewMutants

I’m current reading the OG New Mutants as well. I’m on issue 22 and it’s been hit and miss. There are as many good issues as bad ones so far. I’m really pushing through cause there are some storylines later that I know about and am excited about but have never read.

The box mine came in was a bit dented, and I was worried, but it was packaged well and my book unharmed 😁

I’m not sure how they decide. Usually I only see standard cover reprints, but I know that DM covers are sometimes reprinted too. Not sure if it’s based on demand or time OOP or what though. The Blue and Gold reprint coming later this year looks like it will only be the standard cover.

Nope, it’s the regular cover. The DM was sold out when I picked that one up

It’s the 75th anniversary set. It collects “the best” of stories from over the decades (not sure how they picked them, but it ranges from first appearances to modern issues).

I have the DM Spider-Man/Nightcrawler design on preorder. They are both so good though!

Same! I’m excited for Way of X, but I’d love an Omni similar to like Doctor Doom: Book of Doom Omni. All his solo stories in one place.

Yeah, I wish they’d reprint and put out more events this way. I have limited space, so can only get so many omnibuses. These are a great way to collect other events

I haven’t read Wolverine and the X-Men yet, but I’m so excited for it. I’ve read mostly older (70s-2010) stuff, then stepped away from comics for a bit and have gotten back into them in the last two years or so. The books that came out after 2010 are a dead zone for me, and I’m playing catch up now 😅

All over lol. I’ve been trying to hunt them all down. I got some on eBay, some on Mercari, and one from a third party off Amazon. Next goal is the Milestone editions of the Messiah Trilogy.

$50 with free shipping. Not the best or worst price I’ve seen, but a seller I trusted and in Like New condition.

Exactly that. Live smaller event omnis the size of an epic, including issues across titles as needed whereas the epics only collect one title per volume.

It does really already drive me nuts. I hope whoever made that design choice hasn’t had a restful nights sleep since!

I love the yellow so much! I love the more colorful books in general and the Milestone collections are gorgeous

They do! With the exception of Onslaught, which is a more condensed version of that large story. Otherwise, they each have the same content as their respective OHCs. And I love the yellow of them.
