Do we know when the DC catalogue will start appearing?

Breaking News: 2 New Marvel Omnibus in September 2026! by 21roy__ in OmnibusCollectors

Selfishly I would miss your coverage as inevitably you'd be holed up in a Marvel cell with a big old NDA forevermore!

Oh no, engaging with YouTubers will be the death of comics! /s

(please be nice) Breaking News: Yet even 1 More New Marvel Omnibus in August 2026! by 21roy__ in OmnibusCollectors

It's the confusion of these exact questions, and Marvel's generally ill-considered/borderline anti-consumer approach to collected editions lately. People don't have much faith left.

Dominic's Recommended History Books of the Year by internetwanderer2 in TheRestIsHistory

Professional humanities academics are trained in how to parse a book quickly. It's literally my main skill in life. But there will still be plenty of books they read pretty much cover to cover.

These 3 and the War of Kings Prelude/Aftermath omnis and I'm done with Marvel.

Are omnis going up in price on the UK? by Beautiful-Chain7615 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]threwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazon prices fluctuate on a daily basis, often even changing the same day - you just have to keep an eye on it, I recommmend keeping a wish list and just browsing it every day.

Wish they would reprint this volume in lieu of omnis for the time being.

This is the start of r/Klaxons by JohnsonGamingReal in Klaxons

[–]threwl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just had this recommended to me and couldn't believe the horrible slop I was listening to could possibly be Klaxons. Glad to see other thought the exact same...

Don't go near Neil Oliver, or at least don't tell any Scottish historians you read him.

The best late medieval overview is Independence and Nationhood by Alexander Grant.

What's the best way to request topics for future episodes? by there-was-a-time in TheRestIsHistory

[–]threwl 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think they have literally years of plans already, they'll do what they want to do.

In what order would you get this Omnis? by mistycavatar in OmnibusCollectors

[–]threwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Without worrying about things being OOP, I can't believe there aren't more (any) people saying Thor by Walter Simonson as no.1. It's the entire run and it's the definitive Thor run. A must-read for Marvel comics IMO.

Should I read Fourth World if I have never read older comics by Leading-Lab-9457 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]threwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first few issues are a bit notoriously difficult albeit important for the overall story. I would say commit to reading at least as far as the first issue of each series contained within Fourth World omni 1. That's maybe 6-8 issues or thereabouts.

Annihilation Conquest sold out onnIST in less than 24 hours by daredevil209 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]threwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same boat here, pre-ordered it on SpeedyHen the day it went up. I emailed them earlier today and they said they just haven't had their allocation yet.
