Re: Parker - what the heck? I thought they started working on that last year!? I guess it spreads the spending out but we've already waited so long for it.

[Erik, Moderator]

Anyone know if the upcoming captain Britain Omni is just a reprint of the last?

[Mike]

The reprint of the Captain Britain omnibus will have expanded content.

Hopefully this is just due to issues with printing and shipping the book and not a sign they are considering to cancelation. It is one of my most anticipated releases. I've held off reading this material for years waiting for the oversize edition to finish off the Cooke Parker material.

[Erik, Moderator]

Is the Parker martini a volume 2? I’ve head an oversized edition for well over a year now

[Ozan]

Just ordered;

[J.]

My order got processed: Hickman XMen & F4 Vol.1, Capt.Am Lives,

[Omni]

The only new release I ordered yesterday was the second Oblivion Song OHC.

I read the first trade and was bored. How many issues until the story heats up?

I think if you read the second trade and you still aren't into it, I'd probably skip the rest of it. =)

just ordered Hellboy Universe: The Secret Histories HC. :)

Just ordered Animal Man by Jeff Lemire Omnibus from Amazon. FOMO got me after seeing it bounce in and out of stock for a while.

Sweet! It's the best Hellboy community that I have found. And the mod is the writer for Mignola-related news at Multiversity.com so we are always up to date. We have discussions for the weekly releases which are always fun and there are some really knowledgable people who post routinely there. I look forward to seeing you there!

[Ozan]

I read Hellboy until Conqueror Worm in 2004, i believe. After Conqueror Worm, Hellboy got canceled in my country because of poor sales... :/ So for long years, i was without Hellboy until i saw the library editions, i got all of them... But they are so amazing prints that i can't bring myself to open the shrink wraps... May be i will also get the trades to read. Right now, i'm reading B.p.r.d.: Hell on Earth and it's amazing. When i read some more, you will probably hear my voice in the r/mignolaversity but until then, i don't think i can make much contrubition with my current knowlage of mignolaverse.

There are fans there with varying degrees of knowledge, and every contribution is welcome. If you want, check out the Hellboy book club podcast. They go through the mignolaverse in chronological order and discuss the details. It's a good way to make all of the connections between the stories. They speak clearly so its a great way to practice English if thats something up your alley.

Thanks to a local guy in Boston via FB Marketplace, I just picked up a copy of the Deadpool by Joe Kelly Omnibus this afternoon. I'm very happy about this, especially since it was still sealed and at a very good price for an OOP book.

[Donovan]

Nice P/U!

CGN has been legendarily slow with my orders lately. I think what’s happening is their website says in stock, it’s actually BO’d but I’m not notified (this is a no no in most customer service), then it ships so late I forget I even ordered it. Or one of the books OB my order is BO’d, they wait an indiscriminate amount of time for it to show up, then hold the rest of the order for the book that never shows, then they ask me what I wanna do. Busiek’s Batman Creature of the Night, which I ordered May 26, just shipped.

Nice. I really want DC to continue down the Deluxe path for Injustice but not sure that's in the cards.

Finished reading the second hardcover of Kirkman's Oblivion Song this weekend. Enjoyed where the story is going as we see another faction get developed and the story twist and turn. I expect at least enough additional material for a third hardcover.

I also checked out a manga called Berserk of Gluttony. Fantasy fare about a poor young man trying to make his way in the world with a skill called gluttony that he thinks is useless. However, he comes to find out it causes him to gain the skills of enemies he kills. Third book comes out Tuesday and I'll read it. Fun series so far but pretty short volumes. Probably more middle of the road content - if you haven't checked out some of the best manga books within the fantasy genre I wouldn't pick this up first.

[Relstuart, Mod+]

Ordered the Captain America volume 3 omnibus with the Buscema cover. =)

[JohnIV]

Same, lot of Cap omnis incoming on his 80th year.

[Hamza]

The Sensational She-Hulk Omnibus just came in the mail. I kinda wanted the cover to issue #1 simply because she's breaking the fourth wall right there, but the other cover was cheaper. Plus, that pink background color was a bit too garish for me, lol.

[Jeff]

Filled a few key gaps in my omni collection yesterday. Bought Volume two of Byrne's Fantastic Four (DM edition), and also picked up Slott's Silver Surfer in a lot with Annihilation. I already have annihilation, so I'll flip that one, but the chance to get Slott's surfer for roughly retail was impossible to pass up.

I enjoyed Slott's Surfer book and I'm glad we got it in Omnibus format. =)

Nice grab on the She-Hulk book. =)

Read Scottie Young's MiddleWest book in oversized hardcover this week. Nicely put together book in omnibus size. It was more serious by far in tone compared to his comedy book, I Hate Fairyland. This one did have a poor son and father relationship as one of the driving story forces. Still a fantasy story with supernatural elements. Overall I liked it.

I preordered this week's Cap Omnibus as well as Death of Cap, so hoping those come in soon. I'm going to pass on Wolverine 2, even though I'd really like to read the Nick Fury Graphic Novel that's included. Will probably regret that but running out of space...

I bought the first Wolverine omnibus when it came out in 2009 (IIRC). I've been waiting all these years for it - probably the book I've waited the longest for between volume 1 and 2 of every series I've ever read (Scott Lynch's long break between Gentlemen Bastard books will be the next longest running streak when I get this, 2013 to present).

I've really enjoyed the Kill 6 Billion Demons series.

In other random news, the final single issue for Remender's Seven to Eternity series comes out next week. That should help solidify the eventual release date for the hardcover.

Thanks for the update the JoJo book. I corrected my post. =)

Looks like DC's The Last God DLX/Black Label hardcover is supposed to come out this next Tuesday as well. I pre-ordered this one through DCBS. =)

I did as well. So far I've been enjoying the Black Label HCs.

I'm hoping Jock's announced one will be good. He's writing it so we'll see about the story...

[Relstuart, Mod+]

IST sent an e-mail about books that were missing from their shipment from this week and therefore not available. They include the following books:

Amazing Spider-Man by Michelinie and McFarlane Omnibus (both covers)
Captain America by Jurgens DM cover (regular cover available)
Death of Captain America omnibus by Brubaker (both covers)
Excalibur by Tini Howard OHC vol 1
Wolverine Black, White & Blood Treasury Ed TPB

IST noted they would make these books available on arrival.

The Wolverine omnibus vol 2 DM edition by Byrne is sold out. Both other covers still available.

[J]

FWIW my preordered copies of the Michelinie/Macfarland are either in the way from CGN or already in my next shipment slot with DCBS. (This is the book I stupidly ordered two copies of. D'oh!)

[Erik, Moderator]

I have unknowingly ordered multiple copies several times. With DCBS preorders, some will be on there for several months and they’ve gotten me that way.

[Blindzider, Moderator]

Really, Marvel? Really?!?



At least Defenders was the start of a series. Why in the world would you change it now on something with two volumes already?

[Richard]

And like why?!? U can now barely read the names . And that image of captain America is so small unless ur right up at it. (You could make ur own duster to make them match . I know some do that.

Blindzider wrote: "Really, Marvel? Really?!?

Just got my copy in today and yah, I'm not happy with that spine at all lol. I'd say it was a printing error with whomever they contracted for it, but you'd imagine they would correct that before sending them out. It just looks horrible.

[Johnny]

It is the new standard for Silver and some Bronze Age omnis from Marvel. Every new and reprint of omnibus from that era will have the smaller text on the spine and a picture at the bottom.

Edit: and ASM Omnibus vol 5 is no exception https://twitter.com/NearMintCon/statu...

[Hamza]

As bad as the spine font size is, I'm just gonna live with it. 😭

[Josh]

Wow, that’s DC levels of spine inconsistency. I foresee lots of custom dust jackets being made.

[J]

The FF reprints are also small.

Any chance anyone has a spreadsheet for the MMW series?
