General omnibus & hardcover discussion vol. II

[TheTemp]

The first comic from the 5 year contract Phillips and Brubaker signed with Image is coming out tomorrow, The Fade Out #1! I'm perhaps the biggest Brubaker and Phillips fan I met and of course I'm hoping this new comic, and all of those to come, to get nice deluxe hc's to put next to my Incognito, Criminal, Sleeper and Fatale hc's. God I love Phillips and Brubaker

Fatale isn't part of that deal? Thought it would be since it was Image. Haven't read Fatale, but it's already finished or is finishing with 24. Is there a reason it'll be so short?


And also, what is this "just this tips" Hardcover from Fraction? Is it related to Sex Criminals? Because I didn't think that would be out in OHC for a while judging that they aren't too far into the series lol

[Galactus]

What's the best route to get the Adventure Time Fionna and Cake Mathematical Edition? Like most new releases i was expecting a 50% off from IST but it's 30 instead. Do you think it's best to get it not or wait and see if drops further.

CGN has it for 40% off right not. If you have other books you were going to buy also, maybe check at CGN to see if the total would be cheaper after shipping fees.

Also I believe it was already mentioned a while back about the classic X-O Manowar Omnibus Volume 1, coming from Valiant. It's the only Big thing coming out of their November Solicits that I could find online.

This was the cover image they used by Joe Quesada:

Fatale was before they made the exclusive deal. Its ending because the story is finished.

Just received a BIG package (and two smaller ones)
Got both Sin City Library's for cover, which is a good deal as far as I'm concerned since they're still shrinkwrapped. Looking forward to re-reading these stories, it's been ages since I last read them.
The Chaland books are largely the same content as the super-oversized "Young Albert" Humanoids published a few years ago only this edition has some extra's that were not included in that version.

my latest arrivals:



sanctum was interesting, really liked the art and some of the situations. i think i will need to reread to appreciate more.

deadly class was cool, i will continue getting the trades. remender is becoming one of my favorites.

really looking forward to diving into guns of shadow valley, that and cannon just arrived today. wachter's art has impressed me in the past and the quick flip through looks like he won't disappoint here.


and aaltomuoto, you are always getting the coolest looking books. and i need to snag that trail of the unicorn, i've loved the previous volumes.

Can you post some more pictures of Fury MAX? How do you like the build quality of book itself?
I'm on the verge of buying it but it just costs to much right now.

I just learned about the upcoming complete HC edition of Little Nemo. Seems like I've heard good things about Taschen books, right? I've got it pre-ordered for $140 after tax at Amazon, but I'm worried about their shipping on such a large book. CGN has it listed at $150 plus shipping. Anywhere else people are planning to purchase this book? Please advise. Thx.

P.S. I don't usually follow this thread; sorry if this has been discussed.

Great purchases James and Aaltomuoto. Those Sin City LEs are a great find! Curious to see what the Guns of Shadow Valley is going to be like. I have it pre-ordered too, so will probably get it next week or so.

I plan on purchasing it, but will wait a little longer till I see a decent price drop on amazon.de or amazon.co.uk. EUR 150 is a little too much right now, but the book will probably look stunning given that it is produced by Taschen. Apparently it's going to be two books, which will hopefully be packed together in a slipcase. You might want to wait till it is actually released. In the week of release you should be able to get the book from instocktrades.com with a massive discount and very well packed. You can check the Taschen we site to get a sneak peak of the book http://www.taschen.com/pages/en/cata...ittle_nemo.htm
