    Yeah I have to admit, I'd rather have something easier to read like mine is. Mine says "First Print 2013", so I've no idea what actual printing that is!

    Picked up Clone Saga vol. 2 and X-Force Omnibus vol. 2 (aka Deadpool & X-Force). Now we finally have The Lost Years in its proper place!

    Can you explain? Clone Saga related point?

Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”

    I like the new Marvel paper. It stays warp free more than any other paper I have. All my DC omnis tend to have a very mild page waviness.

    Yes, in the Complete Clone Saga tpb's it was presented at the very start of the first tpb, which spoiled the mysteries of the entire saga. In the omnibus it is in its proper place near the end.

    Very interesting, thanks. I can accept in either place & see the reasoning (many not coming new to the Saga), though, from a "what's best for a new reader" perspective, I can understand thinking it best left near the end.

    from a literally any reader perspective it's best left where it occurred in publication history.

    Shouldn't this always be the case?

    For the most part yes but there are exceptions, such as when trades collect different titles where you want to read several months of one title and then several months of the other title instead of alternating each issue. Also when the intended publication dates end up not being the actual dates due to delays.

    But as a general rule I can't think of *any* prequel made after the original that should be partaken in before the original, regardless of medium (comic, book, movie, etc)

    Question about shelves. I'm headed to Ikea because I need a new case. I looked at the ones I have and I think they're the ones that were discontinued but not sure. Does anyone know which ones Ikea quit making and - by chance - have a picture of them? I guess I'll get the Billys since they're similar to what I have although I think the dimensions are off by a little bit.

    IKEA used to produce the Expedit line which are the common cubed shelves you usually see on these boards. However they discontinued those a few years back in favor of the Kallax line, which are essentially the same. The only big difference I saw is that the outer shelving on the Kallax is not as thick as the Expedit.

    I have versions of both and they work perfectly.

    EDIT: This article has pictures of both

    I also no longer find it at CGN. However, it still appears at Amazon, Tales of Wonder, and the Hachette Business Portal. Publication date is unchanged as well (DM: 12/5, Mass Market: 12/19).
