The editing in this book has left a huge amount to be desired. I read Abe only up to a point, which may be part of the problem in feeling that this is borderline incomprehensible, but there are so...

Cheers, bud.

As promised, here are the pics. Fairly gutted to be parting with them, but I suppose it's part of life. Still have my guitars (for the time being!).

Please note that neither the...

On the back of my second sprog coming next year, and a potentially international move, I'm going to be selling off virtually all of my collection.

I'll be putting the beggers on ebay, no doubt,...

How to do it right: The Mighty Thor Omnibus

How to do it wrong: Neal Adams' Batman Omnibus

Thirded...fourthed?

The Goon is really, really good stuff and is comparable to Hellboy in quality. It starts of a liiittle rough, but very quickly finds its feet and becomes something special.

What are people's thoughts re Absolute Infinite Crisis? The solicitation mentions 400 pages, which would put it at less than the TPB + Companion, but I imagine this might just be a placeholder...
...

Mine arrived last Thursday, but I pre-ordered it sometime in August last year (assuming they dispatch them on a first-come, first-serve basis). There's no way it's OoP already, though; they will just...

Wasn't that the original solicitation?

A quick squint at the shelf and it looks 3 is the smallest volume and 11 is somewhere in the middle. Ennis doesn't appear until volume 5 and 11 is the second of the Jenkin's volumes.

Really...

The print on the book itself is amazing. I cancelled this before, but just reinstated my order (the price hasn't changed, whoop!).

There's a weird dichotomy between the jacket and the book...

So at this stage, do we look at Hickman's work on Fantastic Four and Avengers as pieces of a whole? I started reading Avengers a couple of years ago, but dropped it shortly before Infinity (it all...

Oh, my goodness @ Daredevil and Elektra. All over that Companion. ALL over it.

I must not have been particularly clear. I absolutely, in no way, have any intention of paying that much. I offered £100, but like I said, felt mad for even considering that.

You've nailed the...

*supplicating gesture* Does anyone, at all, anywhere, want to part with their Spider-Man Civil War OHC? I have now been patiently looking for years, with no luck. Finally, today a best offer listing...

Thanks for the reply.

I was turned off both the Moench and Adams books because they apparently leave out anything not drawn by Kelly or Adams, despite this causing reading issues. Disappointed to...

Does anyone have much experience with the Tales of the Batman/Legends of the Dark Knight hardcovers? Just found out that it's a series after perusing the Norm Breyfogle Amazon page.

They look...

....

....

Yes.

Edit: being slightly less facetious, I can see how the meandering nature of the story might lose potential readers. While I really enjoy it, love it even, it does feel like a...

...Goddamit.

Jesus Christ, is that beautiful. Managed to convince myself that the deluxes were totally adequate and cancelled the pre-order.

My wife and I have a newborn, so I really can't...

The stories in Round Robin are pretty dreadful from memory, so no dice there. Was hoping a longer break would rejuvenate finances a bit I could splurge; Marvel apparently isn't so keen.

Hopefully...

Lost touch a bit with solicitations in the last few months.

Any news of Spider-Man Epics/Omnibus?

I've got every volume except 8, and it's fantastic. Obviously, given the length of the run, there are bound to be dips in quality (I'm not a fan of Ultimate Carnage or Deadpool), but it is relatively...

I'm sure others have felt similarly, which is a shame as X-Statix is head-and-shoulders above the other books you mentioned.

That was exactly the way I felt. Thought I must have been some kind of plebeian, as everyone and their brother praise that series. I loved the main series, but all of the tie-ins, bar Nova, were...

I bought Ultimates OHC Vol. 1 and 2 from them a month or so ago. The books were described as very good, though Vol. 2 had more frilling than I would have liked. Other than that I would definitely use...

Good lord, Dark Horse's OHCs are absolutely gorgeous. I have the Colossal Conan, Fear Agent and Hellboy LEs, as well as the BPRD Omnis. Really solidly crafted with thick glossy paper. Far and away...
