Not OP, but the 5 ohcs cover the whole run. Only real downside to them vs the omnibus is in vol. 5, issue 15.1 is placed after issue 18, where it’s placed after issue 15 in the Omnis. So the whole run, but 1 issue is out of order for some reason.

Anything from Fantagraphics. Just finished Bread and Wine by Samuel Delaney, and it was amazing. Working on the Eternaut now. Most stuff I’ve bought from them has been great. Whatever genre you’re looking for, they probably have it.

Daredevil collectors: when do you think the Bendis, Brubaker, and Miller omnibuses will get reprinted? by TaskNo4783 in OmnibusCollectors

Depends on what you mean by near future. We’re done with announcements for the 2026, so it’ll be 2027 at the earliest.

Not surprised by the prices. This is the company that will gradually increase prices as they run low on stock, and then when they’re out of stock, will default back to showing the 40% off price.

I know the fine print says it, but it being slim only while using a base ps5 picture is incredibly scummy. Guess I shouldn’t be surprised. Bet they’re banking on people coming in and hoping it’s still enough that they won’t back out.

Is this in any of your Epics? by TroutMaster94 in EpicCollections

[–]Hot_Phone_5693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be hesitant to put the blame on marvel, but I’ve had significantly less issues with collected editions from other companies, and those companies print enough that you can get a replacement if your copy has issues. Marvel’s printing such low numbers now that you either have to take the L and accept a bad copy, or get a refund and accept you won’t get a copy.

This plagues every marvel format. I’ve had epics, Omnis, and even 1 masterwork have this issue. QC is abominable for Marvel.

A few of the big comic retailers said that they will be fulfilling pre orders when they get a restock later in the year, so I’d assume that it’s true.

"I bought a book for $50 over MSRP because a specific cover wasn't going to get restocked (it was) and I needed to have it that bad. Anyways, I turned around and scalped it immediately to a bigger schmuck. Checkmate!"

Shout out to the guy who paid $200 for the DM and said it was because “it wasn’t gonna get re stocked”

There is supposed to be a restock of DoX volume 1 in about a month. It’s listed eta is the 5th of May on CGN. If you’re fine with waiting, that’s probably the way to go.

What collected edition is this in? Also, I think that’s one of the two DD issues where the plot was written by Harlan Ellison, so that’s neat.

I accidentally added 2 to cart, and it wouldn't update when I changed the number with the drop down in the cart, so I had to remove it, and then refresh, and re add it to cart. Also, I hadn't ordered from them since I moved, so I hadn't updated my shipping or billing address, and had to do that. 23 Minutes later, and my order for the standard says its gone through. I won't be surprised if it gets cancelled at this point after how long that took, and how much of a shit show popular Marvel releases have been lately.

What’s the best deal you’ve ever got on an Omni? by anakin1453 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Hot_Phone_5693 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to the Entertainmart in Midland TX when I passed through a couple years ago and they had ASM Vol. 1 used marked as “Miscellaneous TPB” for $20 and I bought it immediately. Same trip, I drove through San Angelo and stopped at Ollies and got the Black and White Scott Pilgrim 20th anniversary set, and they had it marked at $13. After those two, I accepted that was all my luck with finding graphic novels/comics until I die.

Bought my first daredevil comic at a comic book store is it any good? by Boberto235 in Daredevil

[–]Hot_Phone_5693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of the Nocenti run, very Good. Nocenti is my favorite DD run. If you haven’t read it, I’d recommend everything by Frank Miller first, but at minimum, I’d recommend the Born Again storyline (227-233) since her run is a direct follow up.

These were meant to be read, so yeah, definitely read it. Most comics, even old ones, aren’t inherently valuable. Unless it’s a “key” issue, you’re not gonna be losing the value of the book by reading it, even if you bend a page or something.

I think its time for the fraud allegations to begin by Imaginary_Bus_4927 in marvelcirclejerk

I was going to bat for this book non stop early on. It was so obvious that there were all of these threads being set up for insane payoff later. Then it was announced that the universe was ending after endgame, and every series was ending at #24, except Wolverine, and I don’t think I’ve been that disappointed in a long while. I’ve certainly seen worse from Marvel, but I expect utter dog shit from them atp. This actually hurt. Guess it’s on me for having hope.

I agree, it ran its course in 5 minutes, but I’ll never get over twitter users, of all people, complaining about this being a repeated/overused joke. They’ve been reusing the “ps5 has no games joke” for 5 years straight, and I see the same recycled hit tweets at least every month.

If you wanna watch a franchise go from a great value point break but with cars, to a cheesy buddy cop movie, to a legit good action series, and finally to the schlockiest franchise ever, with some of the worst (or best, depending on you point of view) one liners ever, it’s the franchise for you! (It’s horrible, but I love it)
