the collected edition/hardcover wishlists

[vark]

That would be excellent! That Bissette/Totleben work would be sweet in extra large format. Alcala and Veitch as well.

It would be awesome, I more than second that.

[johnsme]

Plop! the weird anthology series from dc in the seventies would be awesome collected.

Madame Xanadu by Matt Wagner deserves an upgrade from just tpb's.

I would love Fantagraphics to put out a hardcover of Sally Forth by Wallace Wood.

Are any of Marvel's recent annuals being collected? They seem to have changed the format to tell one-shot stories by other creative teams than ones on the main books; I don't think I've seen stuff like the Christmas Avengers Annual or the Wolverine Annual with Jubilee solicited to go in any trade paperbacks. Might be a few single issues to hunt down.

Deadpool / Spider-Man / Hulk: Identity Wars (Deadpool Annual #1, Incredible Hulks Annual #1, Amazing Spider-Man Annual #38)
X-Men / Steve Rogers / Namor: Escape from the Negative Zone (Uncanny X-Men Annual #3, Steve Rogers: Super Soldier Annual #1, Namor: The First Mutant Annual #1)
Daredevil / Wolverine / Fantastic Four: ClanDestine (Daredevil Annual #1, Wolverine Annual #1, Fantastic Four Annual #33)
All-New X-Men / Hulk / Superior Spider-Man: The Arms of the Octopus (All-New X-Men Special #1, Indestructible Hulk Special #1, Superior Spider-Man Team-Up Special #1)
Uncanny X-Men / Nova / Iron Man: No End in Sight (Uncanny X-Men Special #1, Nova Special #1, Iron Man Special #1)
Avengers: Revelations (Avengers Annual #1, New Avengers Annual #1, Uncanny Avengers Annual #1, Thanos Annual #1)
Wolverine: Three Months to Die, Book Two (Wolverine #8-12, Annual #1)

That's all I can remember. There may be more.

Thanks JShilpetski!

No new suggestions but "still" missing:

Astro city (OHC/Omnibus/Absolute)
Runaways Omnibus
"classic" Thunderbolts Omnibus (Kurt Busiek)
Umbrella Academy (reprint)
House of M Omnibus
Siege Omnibus + Companion
Fear itself Omnibus + Companion

[Optimus81]

DC
Hardcovers:
- Legends of the Dark Knight: Norm Breyfogle
- Detective Comics by Chuck Dixon and Graham Nolan

Quoted for truth!

I could also use me some:

Adventures of Superman: Dan Jurgens HC

Deluxe:
Batman: Prey
Batman: Venom
Batman: Blades
Basically anything out of the first 50 issues of LotDK Vol.1
The Longbow Hunters
Hawkworld
Atlantis Chronicles
Superman (New 52) by Geoff Johns and John Romita, Jr. once it's finished


Omnibus:

Iron Man by David Michelinie/Bob Layton Vol.2
Classic X-Men by Chris Claremont and John Bolton
Astro City
Punisher by Chuck Dixon

I would have definitely included Green Lantern by Geoff Johns and Avengers by Kurt Busiek but Amazon's got them listed for 2015 and that makes me very happy.

[John Aston]

Production wish list: Complete Groo and a omnibus of all the He-Man and She-Ra comics from the original action figures.

Should note the Complete Groo should be in a larger size because it's Sergio Aragones.

And, would like to add:

Sandman Mystery Theatre in deluxe hardcover OR softcover. The trades never finished. It's a 60-issue run. Just publish three fat trades.

Mike Grell's Green Arrow run in a format with a higher page count than what's being solicited. I understand Grell's run is more akin to the Arrow TV show in tone and the show, which has far, far more viewers than comic readers, bringing the material back into print. I'm hoping once the run is wrapped up, an omnibus or fat softcovers will be released.

[JJ87]

Would really love to see the following:

DC/Vertigo:
Absolute Preacher (to replace the hardcovers...maybe around the TV series premiere?)
Batman: Year One OHC (Dale Crain and David Mazzucchelli's allegedly "definitive" edition, not the one he wound up despising)
Absolute Dark Knight Returns (Not going to happen, I know. But the inclusion of "DK2" in the Absolute kept me from buying it)

Marvel:
Silver Surfer: Parable OHC (a bigger version of the Premiere Classic HC)
Amazing Spider-Man: The Next Chapter Vol. 4 TPB (the small, uncollected gaps between Vol. 3 and the start of JMS's run)
Spectacular Spider-Man by J.M. DeMatteis and Sal Buscema OHC (from The Child Within storyline to right before Maximum Carnage)
And once Gaiman is done telling his story with the new issues next year:
Miracleman by Alan Moore OHC
Miracleman by Neil Gaiman OHC
With Marvel doing whatever is needed to change "The Original Writer" back to the proper credit. One can dream, right?

Also, not sure who has the rights, but pre-Erik Larsen Supreme also needs a decent printing.

[Mace Dolex]

Tales Of The Batman: Don Newton vol.2 (vol.1 was released like two years ago)
Absolute Batman Ten Nights Of The Beast (recolored & remastered)
X-Men Marvel Masterworks softcovers tpb's (continuing into Dave Cockrum's second run, Paul Smith, John Romita Jr. Marc Silvestri)

[ricardoramos]

just finished the Animal Man Omni, and It's that btime of the year again for wishing a Animal Man Omnibus volume 2 and a Animal Man by Jeff Lemire Omnibus!!
:P

I'd like those too. If only because I loved the omni so much

I love the Peter Milligan surreal stuff (that would be in a 2nd Omnibus) and when they created the "Red" (that would be Jamie Delano's work and that would mean probably a 3rd Omnibus..)

Delano worked on Animal Man too? Animal Man sure does attract the British. I found Delano's Hellblazer good but a bit confusing at times but I'd definitely buy that Animal vol 3 if it ever arrives.

After Grant Morrison we had:
Peter Milligan - #27-37
Tom Veitch - #38-50
(these would make a great 2nd Omni)
Jamie Delano - #51-79
Jerry Prosser - #80-89
(Third and final pre-lemire omni)


And animal man-related: he also apeared on the Justice League Europe

[Hellboydce]

I would love to see
The Goon
Wormwood Gentleman Corpse
Hellblazer
and the majority of the Wildstorm universe getting some HC love
