Whoa.
At worst, the retcon doesn't make sense. Either way it'll probably go unaddressed in the future, or someone will try to reconcile the the difference. Maybe she convinced herself she had...
I don't know. Something about "omnibuses" hits the ear wrong to me. Not that "omnibi" is necessarily much better, but...
Have a good day.

Hey, I finally got caught up on the thread after spending several weeks reading every page. I'm glad someone else said this, since "omniboo" sounds like some made up kid word that I know I'd...
It wasn't obvious to me, and I've been reading Spider-Man comics since 1995 (albeit with a break in the late 90s because of the quality of the Byrne/Mackie relaunch, and again in 2008 for 8 months on...
That sounds so much worse than I think you meant it to.
Have a good day.

Great looking collection dbngaa -- I love the set up with the smaller shelves in the corner. You should take some more pics of that, because it's a really interesting set-up.
Have a good day.

I bought it in 2008 at Staples in Canada for... 60-70 bucks? I went back two or three years later they told me it was discontinued. Think it might've still been on the US site though, but that was a...
I haven't read Siege: Embedded, but it was one in a line of Paul Jenkins tie-in event books. I've read a few of the others he did, and they left me cold.
Even if you don't like the premise of...
I have the complete run and I'd heartily recommend them. They're the same style as Marvel hardcovers from 2008-2011, but they feel nicer because of the consistent 256 page count. The paper is a...
Thanks for the kind comments. I'm envious of folks with collections double or triple the size of mine, but yeah, finding space is tricky. I only just decided to put all of my trades on my tall billy...
I liked Straczynski's run, but thought the second half, when it tied more heavily to the greater Marvel universe gave it a nice sense of urgency, like this-is-happening-so-hold-on. The first half,...

I also took a few pictures of my collection of DC animation merchandise, but I figure I've posted enough for now.
Have a good day.

Hi there.
I finally got around to taking a few quick pictures of my collection. They turned out blurrier than I'd like (which is to say, they're not crystal clear), but you can make everything...
Every collection's got to start somewhere. I've been collecting trades for 12 years and hardcovers for about 6, and still some of the guys on this board make my set-up look puny by comparison. You've...
These are my bookends of choice. I have them in pewter, but they've discontinued that style (for reasons that escape me because they're really great). I just wish I had more of them because I've had...
For the omnibus collector (whose name escapes me), I'd second the recommendations for the New X-Men and X-Statix omnibi -- they're both great reads, even if the latter loses some of it's spark...
I've always thought of Remender as Marvel's Geoff Johns -- they're great taking other people's ideas and threads and building them into something interesting and new, but when they're creating from...
This was the first hardcover I bought ten years back (which I didn't realize until just now and kind of blows my mind). I'd been collecting trades for a few years to that point, and even after that...
I hadn't even thought that they'd release it as volume 4, but that'd be great if they did. Of course they'd be limiting sales by doing that rather than releasing it as a new volume 1, but it'd still...
It's probably just the perception of the thinner paper stock. The Roger Stern Spider-Man omnibus was a few hundred pages bigger than the first Lee/Ditko Spider-Man book but is maybe 20% smaller. Plus...
