Totally getting Matt Kindt's 2 Sisters HC and also gonna give The New Deal HC a go. I love Jonathan Case's art. He tell great stories with his art, e.g. in The Creep. Love that book. This story in The New Deal sounds interesting as well, especially that time period.

Loved The creep. I should finally buy that book. It isn't oversized right?

No it's one of those tiny books Dark Horse do, but I'd still highly recommend it!

Any thoughts on this crossover?

Any thoughts on this crossover?

Haven't read it, or any of the comic series in general, but I enjoyed the movies and I've heard a lot of good things about the story, and the art seems top notch!

Dark Horse LE are really something to praise in the actual market. They cost the equivalent of their content (the two first TPB of the series here) but in a more lavish edition.

I will definitely get that Two Brothers book from Ba & Moon. Too bad it's b&w and only 9" tall since I love their lush colouring and big books

Check out some preview pages in PW from a few months ago: http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/b...-brothers.html

[Balakin]

Probably gonna get The Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot and definitely gonna get Two brothers, but yeah DH should just stop with this small editions. I would pay more for a normal sized or over sized hc.

[Evan Meadow]

Is the prequel story mentioned in the solicit for Sherlock and the Necronomicon collected anywhere? Or does DH plan to actually collect that one later?

Hoping that Nexus HC collecting the DHP stories means DH will finish collecting the rest of Nexus in the Omnibus format. I know there's enough for another volume or two.
