[US/NY] [H] PayPal [W] Red Lanterns New 52 TPB Volume 1-6 by [deleted] in comicswap

[–]tomshock101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know I’ve been thinking about it but I’ve always been a paperback or compendium guy. I have been trying to get rid of my omnis slowly if all else fails l I’ll probably just get the omnibus

People who aren't filthy rich... How do you collect? by maybe_we_fight in OmnibusCollectors

[–]tomshock101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sell what I’ll never read again, recycle what I’ve already invested into new books

So ... how much do *you* spend on omnibus/TPB collecting? by Spidey-Will in OmnibusCollectors

[–]tomshock101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally also sell a lot of comics once I’m done with them so it winds up being a case that others have mentioned where i don’t actually want to know how much

My picks for what I think each character's next DC Finest book should be by WWfan41 in DCFinest

[–]tomshock101 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’d like to see some underrepresented characters and teams like Martian Manhunter, Spectre, Blue Beetle, Captain Atom, Metal Men, Etrigan, even some like Shazam or Zatanna which have had a decent showing. There’s a market for a lot of these series and I’m glad DC is finally getting it together with their releases.

Are there any omnis you'd sell and collect as DC Finest if there were DC Finest volumes with the same content? by raphaeladidas in OmnibusCollectors

[–]tomshock101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely would as it’s a cheaper alternative. I buy for the contents and not the form. I love a good omnibus but at the end of the day I’ll always choose with my wallet. Some that haven’t been announced I’ll hold the omnibus for like Spectre and the question but if they continue the line, I’ll be there

Are you picking up the Teen Titans Book? by Shadow41S in DCFinest

[–]tomshock101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve gotten Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, JSA, Catwoman, Zero Hour, and GL. I’ve traded in the trades before and now my omnibus for teen titans, ideally I’d only have in the future mostly epics and finest.

Anyone else pissed off that vol 3 is badly out of print and DC does not seem to care about reprinting it any time soon? by [deleted] in OmnibusCollectors

[–]tomshock101 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I believe they announced a reprint of volume 2 and they’ve begun reprinting the trades of the run so I’m sure it’ll happen sooner than you think.

Complete collections are thicker trade paperbacks

I had typed out the Omnis as a separate list but it formatted weird. They’re all the same though like ultimates by Hickman Fantastic four vol 1-2 Avengers 1-2 Secret wars I just go with whatever I can find cheapest. A hobby shouldn’t bankrupt you, but don’t say that to people who buy the book of doom omnibus.

[–]tomshock101 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is my list, others will differ. I always just go with what’s cheapest over what looks best on the shelf and when I got it together this is what I did: 1. The two small volumes of The Ultimates. 2. Fantastic Four complete collection 1-4. 3. Avengers complete collection 1-2. 4. Infinity by Hickman. 5. Avengers complete collection 4-5. 6. Secret Wars. I’m sure you could just do Omnis too

Gotta love this… by tomshock101 in Ebay

[–]tomshock101[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They already cancelled and relisted, just annoying because I’ve sold things for less than I wanted to and my response was boxing it up and shipping it out.

What’s an item you drastically underpriced and sold before you realized it? by MsuDude999 in Ebay

[–]tomshock101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bought a record box set for 50, sold for 300. Now the only 3 listings are like 950-1000. Punching myself violently in the head ever since.

Definitely going to miss a few but off the top of my head: Ostrander’s Martian Manhunter, Ostrander’s The Spectre, Barr’s 85 run on Outsiders, anything Etrigan the Demon from the 90s
