If it's going to be 16.99, I'd say it should have all the mythology essays from each issue included. It needs to have extra material to justify why people should pay for Wayward compared to other Image paperbacks that are much cheaper. I'm not sure who thought it would be a good idea to make Wayward's collected volumes so much more expensive compared to Image's other series.
It's actually a little more expensive than Marvel. At least with some five issue volumes [like Ms Marvel, All New Ghost Rider, and Ant-Man], they were 15.99.
Plus I think Marvel collected editions include all the variant covers. It was stated for the first Wayward volume that the variant covers would not be included in the trade paperback, so it probably won't be included in the second volume either.
EDIT: According to the Amazon description, volume 2 of Wayward will include the mythology essays and design artwork from the artist.
Still doesn't justify the price though... Readers shouldn't have to pay extra for that, it should be added bonus content available for a reasonable common price.
Well, I'll continue to buy Wayward in issue form in that case. Unfortunately I don't expect it to last long in sales now though...

Image is a dud for me as well as there is nothing in these solicits that I'm picking up. Maybe some of the delayed books will show up that month to keep it from being a complete bust.

I don't know about the variant covers, but the Amazon description for volume 2 does say it will include "profiles on mythical creatures by noted monster researcher Zack Davisson." Hopefully the essays will be included in the trades from now on, which were unfortunately omitted in the first trade paperback. [At least according to Jim Zub on his website.] I haven't checked out the first trade of Wayward yet. I might buy it one day since it's only 9.99, although I already own both Cover A and B of each of the issues that have come out [including the Phantom variant cover of the first issue].

Heh, I don't pay retail prices for collected editions, but the more expensive a retail price is, the harder it will be to get a decent discount on the book. For example, the discount of the book would be what the price of the book should have been in the first place if the original retail price wasn't so expensive to begin with.
I hope that makes sense...

The Humans wasn't cancelled? Hell yes!
Morning Glories #50 should be awesome, too. I get a bit fed up with it sometimes, but if they are dubbing it the season 2 finale, I know I am in for payoff for sticking with it.
Hey is The Surface ending with #4 already? Or did they just forget to name this trade "volume 1"?
Most excited for 8House: Kiem and Island Magazine (that cover!!). Also I'm delighted ODY-C will be back so soon, I'd figured this would take a while to return given the complexity of the artwork, so this is pretty great news.
Lastly, I love the name "Oemnibus", well played Michael Avon Oeming.
