    Looks like All-New Wolverine Omnibus standard edition has sold out at IST. I'll never understand stock levels and inventory anymore. Marvel used to overprint nearly everything, and now it seems to have swung the complete opposite direction. Is it the pandemic, is it the distributor mess, is it extremely small print runs, or all of the above?

    I haven't read any pre-Hama Wolverine, and even Hama (for me) doesn't really get going until Kubert comes onboard.

    re: Kirby Romance/War omnibus... first off, wayy too expensive for the number of pages. But more importantly, are these any good? I'm not expecting Ennis' Battlefields type war stories. But are these like most all books from the 50s/60s, i.e. super wordy, unsophisticated (by today's standards), very simple stories...?
    Anyone? Bueller?

    Bummer. I was waiting for it to hit the regular book stores. Hoping they still get some copies.

    2 big Omnibus reprints coming next year, and I just got some of that material in epic format. Check out NMC for details.

    Pass for me. But I'm glad those that wanted these are getting their shot.

    A link to the video announcement.

    I have the material in Essential format and don't plan to upgrade.

    I know those 2 are a lot of people's whales, but I haven't heard good things about the material. Are they worth a pick up?

    The Roy Thomas/Neal Adams issues in Vol 2 are great. The rest of the material is for completists.

    It’s not as good as you’d like it to be, nor as bad as you hear a lot of people say.

    I may preorder the 2 X-Men SA reprints mainly due to historical and sentimental reasons (I read them in the early 80s in the Marvel UK reprints). My only fear is that Marvel will now price them at $125 rather than the original $100.

    Hey guys. First time in here and love to see a great community that collects mainly omniboo like me!

    Does anyone got their "Predator: The Original Years Omnibus Vol. 1 HC" pre-order canceled? This was one of my most anticipated collections for a long time

    Your fear is well founded.
