[QUOTE=2nd line g;4037283]Thanks for the info. Good to know. I’m very slowly building my Xmen collection thru in print omni’s and Epics. I doubt these events will make it to the epic line so I did a blind buy.[/QUOTE]
I think they will make Epics eventually in their own series.

Couple questions for those in the know...
Does Aaron's run on Hulk follow Loebs? And is the Zeb Wells/Joe Mad Spider-man & Wolverine oversized?

Yup, it's oversized indeed.

Super excited for the Slott/Allred Silver Surfer Omni this week!
One of my most anticipated Omnis I think ever, as I've only read a couple issues here and there, and have just been waiting on the inevitable Omni to read it all.

I plan on ordering this book.
I am not a fan of how Marvel puts out on goings since Disney took over,
but in a collected or omnibus format it works out nice for me.
Looking forward to reading two runs on the same book with the same
creative team :D

[QUOTE=Peter Parker;4036857]It is probably near the start of the decline of the Claremont run. Nowhere near its peak but still good stuff.[/QUOTE]
Is there any word on more epic collections following the claremont era?

THE MARVEL ART OF SKOTTIE YOUNG HC
Written by JESS HARROLD
Penciled by SKOTTIE YOUNG
Cover by SKOTTIE YOUNG
Celebrate the unmistakable artwork of Skottie Young in a colorful collection of comic pages, covers and cartoons!

Young steered the Guardians of the Galaxy’s fan-favorite Rocket Raccoon into solo adventures, and his variant covers are a collector’s-item sensation! In addition to his art, Young has written ROCKET RACCOON AND GROOT, MAGNETO: NOT A HERO and DEADPOOL! This volume is the ultimate retrospective of the Marvel Universe according to Skottie — ideal for Young and old!

Not directly - Greg Pak wrote Incredible Hulk/Hulks for a couple of years (#601-635) before it was cancelled in 2011 and relaunched for Aaron's run. At the same time Jeff Parker took over (Red) Hulk (#25-57) which later became Red She-Hulk (#58-67) and was cancelled in 2013 during Mark Waid's run.

[QUOTE=AJpyro;4039071]Is there any word on more epic collections following the claremont era?[/QUOTE]
No but it is the Collections Department, so its mostly voodoo trying to guess. They released some Epics that go into the 90s. And it is an X-book so.... I would think it is a safe bet. But again, Collections ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ .

Silver Surfer : Parable worth a read? Obviously art is crazy and upcoming oversize collection is very tempting but whats the actual story like?

Was looking through Amazon and found this: [url]http://a.co/d/i2OYLe4 [/url]

I wasn’t a fan of Pak’s Hulk, albeit not without a few cool moments, and I just couldn’t get down with Aaron run either.
Jeff Parker’s Red Hulk book on the other hand was a lot of fun. There were interesting new villains and Red Hulk’s role as a “one man Thunderbolts team” made way for a lot of action while also developing depth to his character (which has since been totally unraveled by current events). Also there were some great artists on Parker’s Hulk like Gabriel Hardman, Patrick Zircher, Carlos Pagulayan, Dale Eaglesham... Really quality stuff!

I’ve looked and haven’t found anything. But has anyone seen an announcement for a Rocket & Groot collection by Skottie Young. I have the big Vol. 0 trade but I didn’t want to buy the smaller ones if they were going to bring the whole series out in a hardcover. I love comedy books and that series is great.
I guess I should buy the trades and then they’ll bring it out in a nicer format.

It is an oddity. The pairing of Moebius with his european, vintage sci-fi grand scale style on art and Stan Lee, with his wordy signature silver age dialog on script duties is definitely not something you might have seen happening, but in my opinion it works very well. It can be read as an alternate universe commentary on religious fanaticism and humanity's nature to cling on a deity. I wouldn't call it either man's very best work, but it's still a stellar story well worth a read.
Fun fact, the only Eisner award Stan won was for this storyline.
