General omnibus & hardcover discussion vol. II

[gearsofcrabs]

For Adventure Time there's also Eye Candy. It's the same format as the Mathematical Editions but contains every cover for issues 1-15. Yes, there were enough variant covers for those issues to fill up an entire book.

Great collections James, Zevious Zoquis and NZ_Inferno... Someone should set up that #shelfies (shelfpron) thread.

Awesome to put all those links up Kalitarix. Let's keep them where they are and I'll put links up in the OP this weekend. I also want to put solicited OHC, omnibuses, coffee table books and regular hardcovers there. And then also put up links to pics and videos of books that were posted in the thread. A little similar to the DC/Vertigo thread. Nova made a great format there in part 2 which NZ followed in part 3 that would suit this thread too I guess...

Any other wishes of thing that should be at the top of the thread (space permitting)?

Yeah, I saw this book in your picture in the old thread. It's not here because I didn't include art books in the lists. There were some reasons for that, but I can't realy remember them right now.

Didn't realize there were oversized Avatar comics. Anyone have pictures?

[James]

kalitarix, thanks again for those lists!

[ripclaw]

Agreed. I am just in awe.

You're welcome

Didn't realize there were oversized Avatar comics.

That's exactly why I did them.

If I were you, I think I'd grab Tales From The Crypt vol. 3 of the Gemstone archives. I've heard some criticisms of the re-coloring since DH took over. Weird Science vol 2 is good too...

Ok ill look for these, thanks for the advice.

PSA for anyone interested in the Wally Wood Cannon hardcover from Fantagraphics: it seems to be selling out all over (already gone at amazon, IST, CGN). Best price now is $29 at Barnes and nobles website. Free shipping too.

Updated the first page with a little FAQ, some handy links and May hardcover solicitations. If you need me to add anything let me know. Where to shop is especially handy. Like where do you guys Down Under shop... I see some discount vouchers pop-up every now and then...

Add or link to the information Kalitarix provided a couple pages back.

It's a pity all forum content was lost. Anyway. Here are some of my latest purchases:



I'm happy because Astonishing x-men omnibus and all Starmen omnibuses was sold by one of the Russian comics collectors only for ~230 dollars. Great deal.

Btw, Daytripper deluxe is great. And I liked Aama too, can't wait until the second hardcover release!

Hey guys, does anyone have the Criminal Deluxe Editions? What's the quality like on those hardcovers?

They're probably the nicest books of that size I own. Nice thick paper, perfect sewn binding etc.
Really really nice and well worth the purchase.

You should look into Icognito The Classified Edition as well, same quality.

Thanks! I just read up on Incognito and it sounds like something I would like.

It's really good don't get me wrong but for me it was just missing the magic of Sleeper and Criminal.
Still very good comics though.

I have those too. Awesome story and really great build quality +printed cover, no dust jacket.
