No it was for the 15th only. If you bought $45 or more in a multi-pack gift cards you got $10 credit to your account. Limited supplies too.
I didn't realize there were that many volumes of hellboy. I think I've only read seeds of destruction and one more.

Your missing out. I think the series got better as it went on. Like the library editions too.
Maybe I'll give it another try. I've always liked Mignolia's art, just didn't get into the story (at the time.) I do like the Library editions as well.


Aaron, I need to pick up a copy of Mutant Massacre eventually. I have the Fall of the Mutants OHC. It's the first OHC I think of that should probably have been tagged as an omnibus. It's huge!
I've been busy with sports the last two nights so not a lot of progress on AoA companion. I did read the Blink 4 issue mini-series in it last night. It leads right into the Exiles issues. Maybe tonight I'll have more time to work on it. :)

East of west year one HC
Lone wolf and cub omnibus v9
Dragonball v1
Another copy of Captain America omnibus volume 1 because it was like new and some idiot on eBay was selling it for £70 because he needed quick cash! I'll sell the other one and make a profit. :)
Picked up a copy of Squadron Supreme omnibus. They are pretty cheap and they are starting a new series with the title.
About half way thru Brubaker's Catwoman run. So far, I like his Marvel work a lot more than his DC work.

Squadron Supreme Omni (picked up on Ebay - Rel. did u also?)
Marvel Comics Now Omni
Secret Invasion OHC
Acts Of Vengeance & Acts Of Vengeance Crossover Omni's.
Debating what to read next, still haven't finsished putting together the Cosmic run for a read, although I am close.

In my view Saga is miles ahead of Invincible.
It's a lot better written and the art is a tonn better...


Also, I have Fear Agent Vol. 1, which I have heard great things, and Absolute Y The Last Man vol. 1.
See, I have too many choices!! This is all from your recommendations, LOL...

Yes the peeps are right about saga. I own it but like I always do I'm saving it till last. I suggest you try preacher or scalped instead if not saga.
Preacher is in my top 3.

Scalped Deluxe vol 2 50% off.
Fables deluxe 11 49% off.
Multiversity deluxe hardcover 50% off.
Swamp thing by Scott Snyder deluxe 50% off.

I am excited about the new Green Lantern Omni coming out this week. I've read quite a bit of the content but it was always so haphazardly assembled across different trades and HCs that reading it in one Omni has be excited.
Though I realize it's only Johns' stuff and that does bum me out a bit. At least I can read that in one stretch.

GJ's done a good job on green lantern, I think I'd buy an aquaman omnibus as well, but not much else.

Is there an omni for Preacher, or just regular HC volumes?
Ordered Batman Gothic Deluxe and vol 2 Green Lantern by John omnibus. Great price with $50% off on IST. Just under $50. Of course, that means you need to buy a second book to get free shipping. :p
If you need something cheap check out the TBP Birthright vol 1 (or LOW by Remender).

Sadly I can't afford GL V2 right now. Hopefully it won't sell out but I'll have to pay a little more later.

IDT can be slow.
Blindizer, it won't sell out, you'll be able to get it on Ebay cheap also, in fact it's already on the site. Prices will come down in the next months, as they did with Vol. 1.
I hadn't heard of The Contract with God trilogy. It does sound interesting. Please let me know what you think of it. :)


I purchased East of West also, of course still sealed, so much too read.
Are the Lone Wolf & Club volumes only in paperback??

Yes the lone wolf stuff is only in paperback at this stage.
I haven't read it yet but I picked up a copy of IDW's Wild Blue Yonder book. It's a futuristic tale where after mankind has destroyed most of the surface of the earth people have to live in the skies. I've heard good things and I'll report on how it is once I get to it. :)

Finished off Wild Blue Yonder last night. It is a bit short but has good characterization of the main character with enough development of the other characters to make the story effective. It's a relatively simple tale told well with good art work.

- Fantastic Four by Jonathan Hickman vol 2
- Uncanny X-Men Omnibus vol 2
- Justice League vol 6 : Injustice League
- Thor vol 2 : who holds the hammer ?

nice haul. F4 is brilliant.
Nice. I like both of those omnibi. :)
I've never read Jonah Hex. I missed the movie too. I need to look that up on Netflix sometime.

Either Squadron Supreme or Ultimate Avengers is next for me. I'll wait for a little bit before reading GI Joe. I think I'll let a couple volumes build up and then read thru them.
I find the shorter OHCs are usually easy for me to pick up because I know it won't take to long to read thru them. When you pick up one of the big ones I know I'm committed for a while. :)

Alistair, I feel much better about my list compared to yours. :D
Looks like you are ready for your Brubaker Cap read with all volumes on hand. Sleeper should be a complete story along with Sandman and Fear Agent volumes. Thor is huge and I feel like I remember it having a finish where you aren't left hanging.
Locke and Key is fantastic but you might want to move that one to the bottom of the list along with Fatale since there are other volumes yet to come for those.
What are you planning on reading next? :)
