General omnibus & hardcover discussion vol. II

[lvizzz]

I'm talking about the Showtime one with Jeremy Irons, what was the European one?

With John Doman as Rodrigo. Very historically accurate but it also means some people may find it boring. I loved how sex and nudity was presented: natural, without fake moans and porn star bodies. Watched 1 episode of US version, was really bad.

You can find it on UK's Netflix.

I think L & K is IDW's Watchmen, in other words a cash cow, one which they will always reprint in fancy new editions, that being said, I would love an Absolute sized edition

And I would like them to finish the special edition first.

I know the Showtime one is on UK Netflix didn't realise the other one was too. I'll check that out now.

I didn't know about these, I would of been very pissed off if I had bought the first two (same as I was with the Invincible and Irredeemable slipcase editions)

About Damn time! Now if only Sex Criminals Volume 2 could follow suit... however after checking the Image books in the "references" in that link, it doesn't seem to be so.

They don't even have enough material for a second OHC. I wonder when they're going to be back.

I am thinking about jumping into Wormwood Gentleman Corpse due to good reviews it gets on here. For those knowledgeable is the "First Few Pints" edition the complete series to date? Is it an ongoing or has it been wrapped up? Any info is appreciated.

yeah that's it to date. I doubt with Templesmith's speed that there will be another edition like this in the next 5 years.

Theres a new Wormwood mini series that Ben Templesmith is doing digitally straight through Patreon sometime at the end of the year but I've seen no sign of a physical edition yet

I did the same as well. Was a little underwhelmed tbh. Read through about half of it, haven't been compelled to finish it yet. May be your cup of tea tho, but to me it's not as clever as it tries to be.

I've read the first story aaaages ago and loved it but my taste changed since then so I've expected the worst from the collection but was pleasantly surprised. Really liked it, not really clever but just damn fun.

I thought the first arc was rough, or a little crude, like he was still fleshing out characters or ideas, but it did improve a lot the 2nd arc. Don't hate it, it just got put on hold indefinitely with my huge backlog. Just my 2 cents, since it is an IDW book, and they're a little pricey.
