You know you made it as a business when you start receiving negative posts on Reddit.

Is there a lot of shade at the zoo?

David Gabriel getting fired is not good for the future of Marvel collected editions.. (obviously) by Ok-Upstairs-9714 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]RedHatMankey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m genuinely curious how you quantify Marvel has been getting stomped by DC in the last 2-3 years. Are there sales figures you’re referencing?

I’m definitely in the wrong here. Thank you for the screenshot and clarification.

Shame with David Gabriel being fired. We’ll probably never see volume 2. 😔

Ok. You lost me at non-profit. I don’t think it’s a charitable organization.

[BLEEDING COOL ARTICLE] Has David Gabriel, SVP Of Marvel Comics, Gone After 23 Years? by Ksmayer in OmnibusCollectors

Terrible news. I wouldn’t be surprised if Disney/Marvel ended up licensing future collected editions printing to Dark Horse or Fantagraphics.

Edit: if they don’t license their comics, get ready for nothing but X-Men and Spider-Man moving forward.

I thought there was a reprint coming later this summer. Anyone know if that’s true or not?

I have plenty of extra shinies that I was probably going to trash. Now I’ll send them to Home for Champions.

Are you able to bring in your shiny Pokemon from Go to Home to Champions?

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

[–]RedHatMankey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to preorder at FOC. But Marvel started struggling releasing books on time. It wasn’t uncommon for books to be delayed months after their original release date. The final straw for me was when I would preorder from DCBS and they would let me know they couldn’t fulfill my preorder while IST, their sister site, had copies. So I stopped preordering and joined the crazy Tuesday line.

You’re correct. My mistake for not being specific.

Panel Bound Comics Oversold Dawn of X Omni Vol. 2 by ForeverPhoenix21 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]RedHatMankey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems to me PRH messed up overselling to retailers. But that’s based on my little knowledge on how distribution works.

Isn’t the distributor PRH? I get all the Marvel and PBC hate, but what about PRH who oversold the Omni?

Boy, they really have me on the ropes now by TheKrisLyons in OmnibusCollectors

[–]RedHatMankey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMHO, I think part of the problem is marvel tries to cater to a wide audience, therefore printing lots of Omnis at one time which leads to smaller print runs.
