    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.

    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...

    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.

    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.

    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.
