SCOTT SUMMERS AND EMMA FROST DESERVED BETTER.
since I know you are on a budget I just wanted to ask: have you had a look for the 2 ohcs? You get the same content, same size but I'm pretty sure you can get those cheaper than the omnibus. Maybe not right now but look for a couple of days and surely a deal will pop up.
Unless of course you prefer the omnibus format or got a great deal on the preorder.
Finished reading Doom Patrol Book 1 (Grant Morrison) which I just got on Friday. Loved it. Indigo was having a sale on the Doom Patrol Books. Now waiting on Books 2 and 3 to come in. I also heard good things about the new Doom Patrol so ordered Volume 1 of that as well. I love the Omnibus/hardcover format but that Doom Patrol Omnibus just seemed too big so I always held off wanting to get it.
The Green Lantern/JSA Omnibus' are about the max size book I want to handle I have learned
I had something similar. I had a weekly running order with IST from Oct '14 to Oct '15. I have the tally on my home laptop of what that amount was but can't recall it off hand. I should, it was fairly sizable. In the thousands. I was getting stocked up due to my wedding, which was summer of '15. So I went a bit past the wedding but my wife and I had talked about a number of vacations and trips we wanted to do for 2016 + pay off the wedding before calendar year 2015 was over.
I now go weeks w/o an order but my back log of reading is PRIME and I take little chunks out of it here and there.
I may go into months w/o an order as well when my newborn baby shows up on/about Sept 28th! Solidarity sir!

A future toddler warning. They LOVE to pull out things from bookcases! I don't put anything I care about on my bottom 2 shelves now after I had half a shelf of omnibus' dumped onto the ground.
Thanks for the heads up! I went for the omnibus partly because it looks so damned good, but I think also partly because I like the idea of having it all in one. I think ordinarily I would consider the cheaper option, but since it is a present from my parents and they insisted that I get get the one I wanted the most, I went for it :P
Edit:
Also, an arrival today. I've wanted these for ages but I had lots to read...
“We have a saying, my people. Don’t kill if you can wound, don’t wound if you can subdue, don’t subdue if you can pacify, and don’t raise your hand at all until you’ve first extended it.”
my niece (two and a half) loves banging her tiny fists on the spines and tries to pull the books out. luckily, she is small and weak and they are big and heavy and shelved tight enough, so she hasn't quite succeeded in her endeavors so far but yeah, they are like magnet to her, so colorful and bright. i keep an eye on her whenever she is near the shelves though, because, well, they do grow up fast.

So today I went to this comic shop in another city and look at what I found and bought. These were literally waiting for me on the shelves. The store manager was a prick, though. But I got a great deal on all of these and they're all still sealed. I literally freaked out cause I was looking for all of these. They have the other rare Valiant books. So I got the rest of them all on hold. Since I ran out of pocket money. I don't use my card for transactions, only business. I use pocket money to buy whatever. Though, I think I'm going to build up a Valiant HC collection. Been meaning to for a long time, and these are my first 3 Valiant HC's from the New Wave. Oh, and that Justice League, I didn't have it, been looking for it for quite sometime brand new. But what you guys think about the haul?
