[QUOTE=MartinNL;308973]Apparently Corto will also be released in 6 hardcovers....

"The series will also be released in a matched set of six original art-sized limited edition hardcovers, each containing the equivalent of two of the trade paperbacks."[/QUOTE]
So if it says "original art size" will these be as big as the French Casterman edition of Ballad of the Salt Sea (43x33 cm)?

[QUOTE=Captain Planet;307351]Is the old X-O material worth it? I enjoy the new series but have only read the first issue of the older.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I would be interested to know how good this is. It boasts a long list of well known creators, but then that could mean jerks and jumps in reading.
Here's the image for the Omnibus cover that Diamond has in its solicitations:

They say 'original size' in paperback description too, anyway this will be hard to resist, the key point for me is 6 volumes cause i have various editions from all over,
but i guess i will keep those too at the end heh.
Corto done by IDW is worth a double dip i guess.

I'd suspect that would be the case. The size of the albums (and the original art I'd assume) was not consistent originally so I wonder how they're going to mould that in a cohesive series.

A Library Edition sized HC adaption of Dream logic? Nice! For those not familiar with it

it's basically David Mack publishing sketches, new art, some short stories and tons of extras for Icon. I never had a chance to pick it up then but I may pick it up now. David Mack is a very fascinating artist
