Funny how a Punisher omnibus sells twice as much as a Batman omnibus. DC is having trouble getting traction in omnibus sales. Maybe everyone has Knightfall already. I mean, the Punisher omnibus is better, but still...Batman.

Not sure you can compare those based on the numbers of May alone as the Punisher Omnibus was out in early May already while Knightfall was published towards the very end, almost in June. That could even mean that Knightfall did extremely well.
EDIT: Just looked it up. Previews had it for May 30, so if I‘m not mistaken, it sold over 700 copies in two days, which looks great to me. (Pun MAX was out on May 2).

The Marvel solicitations are out and there's a few surprises:
Ben Reilly Spider-Man Vol. 1 Omnibus
GotG Tomorrow's Heroes Omnibus
MMW Marvel Team-Up Vol. 4 HC
MMW UXM Vol. 11 HC
Conan Vol. 1 Omnibus - MOKF style i.e. $125 for 700 pages
Also Quasar: Cosmic Collision which appears to pick up right where Quasar Classic Vol. 1 left off.
Wanted to double check before I buy because retailer searches aren’t being too clear. There are four Arron Thor OHCs released so far, right? Two for traditional Thor, and two for Jane Foster Thor?
Also, still no announcement for an omnibus, correct?
so, why would they not just name it "classic vol 2"? that's a bit perplexing. Didn't they recently do that with Cable or somebody as well? I guess they're wanting to distance themselves from the "Classic" line. Either way, insides are the insides, which is great. Nice to see Quasar continue.
"Boomerang arrow, Kate... It comes back to you in the end. Boomerang. Respect it." - Clint
"Why the hell do you need an arrow that comes back to you after you shoot it, Clint?" - Kate
"Because... Boomerangs." - Clint.
Yeah, after the Carnage Omni, the Venomnibus dreck (which I just ordered, smh) and the hodgepodge Spidey Vs Venom omni, I was hoping for a good omnibized sequential chunk of ol' AMS next.
Oh, well, At least we are likely to see more Spidey Omni goodness next year, thanks to the movie. Besides probably AMS 4, I mean. Surely they must be running out of lackluster webhead-related material, right?
Cue the 'Alex Saviuk Omni' announcement, lol.
I'm actually happy for the Ben Reilly Omnibus as this was in my Top 10 Omnibus wants for the recent survey but I labelled it as Clone Saga Vol. 3. This will nicely stand next to the Vol. 2 Clone Saga Omnibus. I didn't succumb to the Venomnibus fortunately
Really excited for the Mutant X TPB!
