I thought there was a Daredevil Omni out today? Is it popping up on IST for anyone else? I'm not finding it...
Is Daredevil Brubaker Vol 2 also getting a reprint?
Amazon seems to think so. But then, they also seem to think it collects the same issues as Vol 1.

I still wish the Brubakar Daredevil stuff was just one omnibus. Vol 2 is less than 500 pages
We need better comics
It's a long story haha
I did get all my comics digitally, or what I could get, and started selling my books off. I ended up selling quite a few but only about a third of my books. Then last November there was a decent quake here in NZ and one of my bookcases broke apart resulting in quite a few books getting damaged. I had insurance so have been dealing with an adjustor to sort out value, and they ended up paying out in March covering about 90% of Market Value on the damaged books which was pretty fair.
I then went through my books again, I'd left them on the floor as I didn't want to open them or cause further damage till I had them replaced or been paid out. I sort of fell in love with my comics again at that point. It had hurt seeing the smashed bookshelf and I had written them off in my mind. I've now decided I will keep a collection, just it will be smaller. So I'm buying books again, to replace a few badly damaged ones and some new releases that have come out to upgrade tpbs I already had like GotG, Gotham Central, Journey into Mystery etc. Also rebuying some books I regretted selling like Hickmans Avengers.
I'm still selling off some books now, just really focusing the collection. It will probably end up all fitting in one bookshelf but we shall see.
And on that topic I have a couple of Brubaker Omnis: Captain America v1 amd Death of Captain America here. If anyone is looking for a copy let me know before I throw them up on ebay. They weren't damaged, just someone offered me a really good trade for Cap Lives so I'm getting rid of the rest.
So I dived into my newly acquired Guardians of the Galaxy by Valentino (blind buy) and ..... it is ****. Seriously. A complete turd product of the 90s. I was hoping for a hidden gem (New Warriors for example) and I got just a steaming heap of 90s nonsense. The art blows, the writing is dumb, the dialogue, plot, all of it. What a waste. I gave it 300 pages. I'm out.
Going back to reading the Joe Hill graphic novel collection. Talk about talent.
That is very disappointing, because I also picked up that GotG Omnibus on a blind buy, and I figured that it had to be at least somewhat noteworthy if they were going to give it Omnibus treatment?
I've mostly enjoyed the other two GotG Omnibuses, which also were mostly blind buys, and also the main reason I assumed this book would be enjoyable. Of course I'll give it a shot, but "90's style comicbooks" are one of my least favorite things ever.
