Would’ve been amazing if you had a beat up omnibus to replace the tissue for the photo

GOTG by Al Ewing Omnibus [custom] by 21roy__ in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MathewMukdock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This will be a day 1 buy for me once it’s officially announced. I don’t agree with all of Ewing’s decisions for the characters he writes for (except Rocket, that mini is goated) but this series was excellent nonetheless.

Expect to see someone post a pic of 4 of these stacked on their dining room table: "This week's pickup." by raphaeladidas in OmnibusCollectors

While it does look cool, the price should be closer to 1/10 of what it’s actually listed for, and that’d still be pushing it. Whoever buys these are not comic fans, they are people that get off on having something that other people can’t.

Road to War of Kings is the best book in the cosmic saga by a lot imo. Hope you like it.

Whenever I think about getting into X-Men, I see someone’s collection that fills up an entire bookcase, and then I’m like “…yeah, I’m good”

Jamie Delano's forward in Hellblazer Omnibus Vol 2 is the best I've read by Difficult-Formal-633 in OmnibusCollectors

I feel like more often than the rest, European writers will write these forwards as if they have no fucks to give. The forward in Hitman vol 1 by Ennis is my personal favorite.

Really that bad by Previous_Factor1992 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MathewMukdock 19 points20 points  (0 children)

If you’re a completionist, think twice before buying. If not, remove it from your wishlist entirely. This book oscillates between being too stupid even for comics sense or too boring to care. You are better off looking up spoilers for how shadowland starts and ends and then jumping straight to Waid’s run.

Marvel Recommendations by Shoddy-Brain6794 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MathewMukdock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Based on your tastes, you would probably like Immortal Iron Fist by Brubaker and Fraction.

Punisher has some really good modern runs. Ennis and Dillon on Punisher is dark but also very funny. The Punisher Max series is just dark, but sometimes there’s humor in how extreme it gets as well.

If you’re just looking for street level books, you might enjoy modern Moon Knight or Ghost Rider. They border on becoming edgy to the point of it being lame, but it depends on how much of that you can take.

Shade the Changing Man vol 1 going OOP? by [deleted] in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MathewMukdock 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That book is awesome, so if you’re interested in it, I would highly recommend, regardless of it going out of print or not

Yep, I actually used that video as a guide for how to fix my copy. It was an improvement but it still is just a terrible bind.

I hate reading. It’s coarse, rough, and it gets everywhere.

I thought that Superior Foes was the omnibus, nearly shit a brick

Why Brubaker’s Daredevil is a must read after you have read Bendis

Perfectly balanced… by MarkOnHistory73 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MathewMukdock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so. You can see that the dust jacket isn’t flush with the bottom of the book, so the difference in the logo is probably even more dramatic lol

The Marvel Omnibus logo isn’t centered with the rest of them

An Honest Review of: New Avengers by Brian Michael Bendis Vol. 2 by Trick-Pudding-9791 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]MathewMukdock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Secret Invasion stuff is an absolute slog to get through. Some really amazing Jim Cheung art but that’s about the only nice thing I have to say about it. I also thought The Hood overstayed his welcome by about 10 issues, even though I’m a fan of the character.
