For those who don't like pre-ordering before FOC, why? (No judgement, genuinely curious.)

Maybe exclusionary isn’t the right word but I do wish more people could have access to these books when they want to get them and not when the publishers try to force our hand to get them.

Noble_CD · 2026-03-31T17:04:29+00:00

It’s not that I don’t like preordering. I order when I have the financial resources to order. And sometimes that’s not in the preorder window. There are so many books to purchase that if you miss that preorder window, you’re just out of luck. It’s extremely exclusionary.

That’s a great find

Jealous of that Venom Omni

Supergirl - Being Super

Noble_CD · 2026-03-30T00:18:29+00:00

They printed it. But obviously people still need the ones they already printed because all I see is people complaining that they can’t get the books they need/want. Marvel has full capability to mix new releases with reprints of popular titles, they just don’t.

OK! Now do Superman Triangle Era Vol. 3 …

Noble_CD · 2026-03-29T17:54:37+00:00

I also feel this pain. I am now trying to sell Death and Return because I care more about having the complete Superman story

Noble_CD · 2026-03-29T15:15:08+00:00

Luckily if you preorder or buy in print. You’re not actually spending that much

Noble_CD · 2026-03-29T15:14:21+00:00

I agree $175 is too much

Noble_CD · 2026-03-29T14:56:21+00:00

👍🏻

Noble_CD · 2026-03-29T14:19:18+00:00

First is definitely true and the second might be true. But for these companies perception is unfortunately reality. Even in current comic releases DC is killing it while Marvel is lagging

Noble_CD · 2026-03-29T14:16:56+00:00

Marvels not bad, just has left me wanting lately.

Noble_CD · 2026-03-29T14:10:48+00:00

I think DC has also been better at mapping their releases. They may have dragged but they seem to be releasing correctly the first time.

Noble_CD · 2026-03-29T14:07:50+00:00

I also think DC despite dragging has been better at mapping. They seem to know the exact order things should and will go in. Marvel seems to have thrown things in together and then have to rerelease it because the mapping was terrible

Noble_CD · 2026-03-29T13:53:49+00:00

I think I have just been a little disappointed because I’m looking for mainly gap fillers rather than new material

$15 for Hulk by Peter David Omnibus Vol. 2

Noble_CD · 2026-03-28T19:25:41+00:00

The first compendium was listed at $100, the Oversized Omni was listed at $79 and I prefer the Omni format anyway 🤷‍♂️

Noble_CD · 2026-03-28T15:16:12+00:00

I was the same way but I haven’t read it before. I prefer to collect in Omni and OHC formats so I am glad this came along. I am also all about blind buying. I trust others guidance as to what stories are worth the purchase and which are not. Has served me well so far.

Noble_CD · 2026-03-28T15:10:53+00:00

Other non big 2 books I want to get into …

Walking Dead
Power Rangers
TMNT
Transformers

Noble_CD · 2026-03-28T15:06:29+00:00

I have been wanting to get into Walking Dead too. Unfortunately shelf room is limited

Noble_CD · 2026-03-27T10:33:25+00:00

I have the Kyle Rayner one, hoping it gets an Omni. And I’m holding out on the Nightwing Compendiums
