So after everyone here talking so highly about superior Foes I finally got around to getting it. A little predictable in the lovable losers sort of way but funny as hell and highly recommended. New found respect for Boomerang, too.

yes, absolutely. there are two isues in the end that ties into Spider-man being Doc Ock but those are not part of the overall plot. Originally Posted by Mr`Orange

It really can't be read any other way, the whole "of Spider-Man" thing was just a sales gimmick. Originally Posted by Mr`Orange

Well I broke down and bought the 3rd and 4th Jason Aaron wolverine collection so I can pick up where his omnibus left off.
So they can solicit the second omnibus any day now with my luck

I didn't like these, but let me know what you think. Lot of cliches. i.e. wolverine mind control, etc. don't want to spoil. Originally Posted by ER Prest

Kind of what I expected, honestly. But after after Scalped I figured I'd give him a real try. Plus, I don't like unfinished stories/runs.. It's the completionist in me Originally Posted by TomSlick

I'm in the same boat but will not pull the trigger on those trades. FYI I really dug these. However I wasn't looking for earth shattering storytelling, I was looking for fun and Aaron delivered IMO. Originally Posted by ER Prest

some new MArvel stuff showed up on amazon but I'm too lazy to copy everything (from the Omnibus collector's group)
the 2 main ones are the Michelinie-LArson Spidey omnibus and the Tangled web of Spider-man omnibus.
There will be LOADS more spidey trades.

Nice! Would have preferred just an Amazing-centric omnibus, but shouldn't complain about extra content.
Tangled web seems interesting. Is that like a villian focused series? I've never read any of it that I'm aware of.

That's good news, especially the Michelinie/Larsen one. I keep hoping they omni the post Stern Alien Costume Saga though. They have it in two fat tpb complete collection books that I keep holding off on for buyers fear. I figure if I cave and buy them they'll end up announcing the omni shortly after.

Oh, and on the Superior Foes topic, I love that book. Brilliant stuff, both writing and art.Last edited by OldManBrian; 10-24-2016 at 02:55 PM.
