The Lion's Share Have you seen what price the Daredevil Omnibuses are going for on ebay?!!!

I should probably sell mine now. Such a great run though I really don't want to lose them.

Next week will see a decent number of oversize books released.

- Absolute Preacher
- Superman the Golden Age omnibus 2
- Deadly Class DLX
- Avengers by John Bryne omnibus (West Coast Avengers vol 3)
- Avengers Time Runs Out OHC
- Deadpool Minibus 1 OHC (reprint)
- Star Wars: Darth Vadar OHC vol 1

Not sure when Prince Valiant HC by Fantagraphics is supposed to be released. IST has zero Fantagraphics books in their coming now section right now. It's already out on Amazon.

I'm in for deadly class and avengers. I'm going to hold off on preacher though. I want to read it but I suspect I won't love it enough to justify the cost of an absolute.

The Deluxe Hardcovers are fairly reasonably priced for Preacher. I love Preacher but that's the route Im going instead of Absolute.

Totally in for Time runs out. I have all of the Avengers and New Avengers collected but I haven't started Time runs out yet.

I hope to pick up Deadly Class, Darth Vadar, and both Avengers books. That's a bit pricey.

Not read any of it but can you go wrong with the x-men?

Donovan | 1154 comments Just received my first "large" order.

I Hate Fairyland Vol. 1 TPB
Dirk Gently Vol. 1 TPB
The Goon Library Volume 1 Deluxe
Batman Europa HC

I haven't looked through Goon yet, but wow, what a huge and beautiful book! I noticed Volumes 2 and 3 are out of stock on IST, though, which sucks. Anyone know if they'll be getting more soon?

Dark Horse has been pretty good about keeping Library Editions in stock at least until the series is complete. As there are two (I think) more Good editions to come I expect there will be more eventually. This is just my guess based off of past Dark Horse practice.

I enjoyed I Hate Fairland. Dark but funny. :)


message 1220: by Donovan (new)

Donovan | 1154 comments Thanks, Relstuart. Good to know. I definitely plan on getting the whole Goon set. And I've heard generally great things about IHF. So we'll see.

Camilo (camilo1292) | 70 comments After a great vacations in Florida I'm ready to start again my reading. I want to shout out this excellent comic store in Orlando called "Coliseum of Comics", because they have a great amount of hardcovers and super friendly staff. From them I got:

New X-Men Omnibus
S.H.I.E.L.D Omnibus
Crisis On Infinite Earths DLX
New Frontier DLX


message 1222: by The Lion's Share (new)

I have that one also. Really good but i added that one to my collection 1-2 years ago. :)

I'm actually planning to buy it because i want to read what Jonathan Hickman is doing on Marvel and i've heard that this is the place to start. Its out of print though, so i'm trying to found it in a good price.


message 1229: by The Lion's Share (new)

The Lion's Share It's great. I love Hickman. I want his babies.


message 1230: by Donovan (new)

Donovan | 1154 comments : D Oh, Alistair.

All I've really read is Manhattan Projects and part of East of West. Prefer MP. Haven't read anything else by him. Any suggestions?


message 1231: by The Lion's Share (new)

The Lion's Share His fantastic four run is my favourite.

He did a cool short story called red wing as well.


message 1232: by Donovan (new)

Donovan | 1154 comments Cool. Thanks.

Jesse A (jaathey) | 332 comments Hickman is the fucking man! His Avengers and New Avengers run up to Secret Wars was quality.

I like Hickman a lot as well. Though, I've enjoyed his Marvel work more than his original work.

His Marvel work includes,
Shield OHC vol 1 (vol 2 never released, yet)
Secret Warriors (omnibus or premier HCs)
Fantastic Four (two omnibus volumes, first OOP)
New Avengers/Avengers (OHCs)
Secret Wars OHC

I'm sure he's done some work here and there too. Did I miss anything?

As far as his Image work he has two ongoing series, East of West and Manhattan Projects. I'm enjoying East of West more than anything else. He has a new Image series starting in the near future about murder and high finance.


message 1237: by Blindzider, Moderator (new)

Blindzider | 3293 comments Mod
The only thing I can think of is the Infinity event which is sort of covered by the Avengers.

There is definitely a couple more independent stuff but not ongoing that I know of.

Wish they would hurry up and release an OHC for those SHIELD series.


message 1238: by Donovan (new)

Donovan | 1154 comments Murder and high finance you say?


message 1239: by Jesse (new)

Jesse A (jaathey) | 332 comments The Black Monday Murders. Sounds fun to me. Not 100% on the art yet but we'll definitely give it a try.


message 1240: by The Lion's Share (new)

The Lion's Share Great sale on at image digital atm.


message 1241: by Donovan (new)

Donovan | 1154 comments I think the cover art looks great at least. I wish I had a local comic book store. Can't stand digital comics and an hour is too far of a drive : / Thanks for the info, though. It's on my radar.

Interesting. I know that my cost to purchase a print recently was less than expected because of the exchange rate being better for me in the USA. I do buy books form the UK from Folio Society and there are a couple series written by British authors that either are not available in HC or not available in the same binding that I am trying to pick up here. So this will probably help a bit with that. The exchange rate has not been good for the dollar for a long time.

I'm sure the price of tea went up quite a bit here when we exited the commonwealth (significant inflation also was an issue). :p

Hopefully after a re-adjustment period things will be better than ever in Britain after the exit. The USA and England's special relationship will remain and England's fifth largest economy in the world is still a powerhouse. I know there is a lot of doom and gloom from a lot of folks over Brexit but there is much in the way of opportunity for England to create the sort of country they want right now. Hopefully, the opportunity will not be wasted. :)

And perhaps I can afford to visit England with the dollar and the pound getting closer in value. :)

As a kid one of my favorite series was the Dave Dawson books about an American pilot during WWII and his English compatriot, Freddy Farmer. They were great friends and both put their lives on the line for the country and for each other. One of the observations of both was that as long as there were people like them, there would always be an England. Both of our countries have lot of problems. But, it's up to us to be the change we want to see in the world, right?

Both our countries have a lot of great things to offer the world too, this group is a testament to that. We both have artists and writers from both nations that create stories that we love and that entertain many people. If we look for the bad, we will always find it, sometimes we need to remind ourselves to purposely stop and look for the good and remind ourselves we have reasons to be proud of our countries (imperfect as they may be).
