One of the things I love about collecting comics (collected edition only) is that at any time I can glance up and see the results of ten years of collecting staring back at me, I love seeing all the...
I just know the second I do that the Omnibus will be announced. But I've been waiting for that for years already, I'm tempted to get the trades as I really dislike the smaller DC hardcovers.
Mines a total mousetrap, I've tried reading it a few times but I can't put up with it. I bought the Green Lantern Omnibus on the recommendations on here and that is so much better than Infinite...
I was wondering if he wasn't happy with the quality of the Chinese books then how on earth is he happy with the American ones?, the few American made ones these days are some of the worst low quality...
If you want to try and convince yourself that the binding is fine then have at it but I can see from a single photo that the binding is still far behind Dark Horse, Marvel etc and as such not...
Planetary is one of the 'better' ones, early ones like Hawkman are so much worse. I stopped buying DC Omnibus over a year ago now because I don't enjoy fighting with the book because the publisher...
Same, although I would bite at £50 simply because I have volume 1 but it's out of stock anyway. There's not a chance that I would pay the crazy prices on Amazon UK. It would be interesting to know...
Aah I see, I misunderstood and thought it was an individual selling off their collection on eBay. Only thing I get from Amazon is busted up books lol.
I don't understand why everyone is back patting and congratulating this guy, the seller has made an honest mistake and sent out the wrong book I'd have sent him an email to let him know not acting...
I use imgur, plays nice with ipad. I stopped using photobucket when it said I'd hit my bandwidth limit and I couldn't upload anymore till whenever, how the heck can I hit any photo limit when all I...
That bit doesn't bother me I never really notice it, I don't like how half the new Omnibus don't have the classic black spines though, means I have to shelve those with the silly white spines...
Ha, I was thinking the same as you the other day John, I don't collect singles but if you add up the issues I have in trades etc it totals right around 5-6 thousand, I told myself hitting the 10,000...
It's rare that mine don't arrive like that, how on earth you manage to receive mint ones I do not know. All mine have slight bumps and dings somewhere on them, par for the course when I order from...
Did the first Gunslinger Omnibus fall apart as easily as The Stand?.
As for everybody's copy falling apart there must have been some in the print run that were unscathed because I've had zero...
Panini do produce plenty of their own English trades, but no Omnibus volumes. Irritating company, I shouldn't have to try and trawl through vague Amazon fish in order to get any idea what books are...
Glad to see it even though it's not a series I read. Pricing all over the place again I see, are these glued?, 432 pages for $34.99 is way better than the new brand of 500-600 page $100 Omnibus.
Most people just like the old colouring because they want the comics to be identical to those they know and loved and grew up with as a kid, some collectors act all outraged over recolouring to the...
Has any English buyers bought the Guardians of the Galaxy Annett trade?, it's never been in stock at my usual places and I can only find it for silly near rrp prices. Did they under print this one so...
Yes, you can stick to your guns and not buy the Omnibus. Sadly, the addictive part of our collecting habits means most of us will still buy it regardless of price and double dipping.
Same, I want rid of my 52 Omnibus in favour of the trades but some of those are out of print. Makes me not want to read the book when I have to hold it and peer into the gutter. Such a shame DC are...
Pricing's all over the place, the 304 page New Avengers book is $34.99. I'm glad that so far they've not done any $100 500 page books that I'm interested in.
Don't forget Wolverine! this line is expanding rapidly, it would be a shame to slow things down as at this rate we could have more comics collected in a few short years than the Masterworks have...
There's also library editions for Angel & Faith starting next spring.
There has never been any VAT on books coming into the UK (being educational and all that or something) so you'll never pay any customs charges. People have been lobbying to get the tax removed on...
If it's in print still then they can order more easily, they've always sent my 'Out of Stock' items pretty quickly. If it's something that's hard to find on it's way towards being out of print then...
