All New Marvel Collected Editions

[Rincewind]

Well nothing is ever a sure thing in the Omni predicting world let's all admit we felt this one coming. Am I right or am I right?!

Nice to have it confirmed!!

What are the odds that Conan will join the Epic Collection line?

[Graphic Autist]

Usually an Omnibus will come out as an Epic TPB, in two parts, after the Omnibus is released.

Usually...

They did it with Star Wars so there is a precedent. As always though your guess is as good as mine. I for one will be getting the omnis.

For those anxiously awaiting SA Hulk Omni 2: I have officially given up hope and started getting the Masterworks, so Marvel is now free to solicit it.

[Gurz]

Count me in for Conan.

Press Release

Know, oh prince, that in the year 1970, CONAN THE BARBARIAN, sword in hand, slashed his way into four-color life. This January, ahead of Conan’s triumphant return to Marvel Comics, Marvel is proud to announce the release of CONAN THE BARBARIAN: THE ORIGINAL MARVEL YEARS OMNIBUS. Fully remastered, this tome features Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith’s ground-breaking adaptation of Robert E. Howard’s iconic character.


Collecting CONAN THE BARBARIAN #1-26 from 1970-1973—as well as material from 1971’s SAVAGE TALES #1 and #4, CHAMBER OF DARKNESS #4, and CONAN CLASSIC #1-11—the CONAN THE BARBARIAN: THE ORIGINAL MARVEL YEARS omnibus presents each story in all its glory, from covers to letter pages, all painstakingly restored to match the beauty of the original editions.

Cool.Thanks for the info.
I have never read those Conan stories so this Omnibus collecting the first stories by Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith of Conan,will make this a Omnibus that i will be buying for sure.

[Captain Craig]

What are the odds that Conan will join the Epic Collection line?

Star Wars and Shang-Chi both found their way to EPIC so I say odds are in your favor.

Thank you for your sacrifice

I also sold my Essential Hulk vol. 3-4 a few weeks back. Hoping the Omni gods would notice and consider SA Hulk Omni vol.2 for 2019.

Thanks for this Raffi

Does anyone think the high position of the Death of Wolverine Complete Collection indicates a better chance of an Omnibus being done at some point?

Is that a historic trend, that high sales in one format generates releases in other formats?

This week's dilemma: I want the Venomnibus but I'm 96% certain it will be in the bargain bins in a few months.

just wait. Even if it's not gonna end up in the bargain I can't imagine it going oop fast like Annihilation or UXF did.

I would not speculate about trends when it comes to decisions on what material will get the Omnibus treating. There should be a chance to get a "Death and Return of" Omni down the road (just my guess and it would be kind of funny).
Also in all honesty: the 15 or so issue built up towards the Death of Mini was not good at all imo.


On another note: woa that are some big numbers for the Wolverine titles. Maybe this will help to finally get a Wolverine Vol. 2 (and for those who missed out a reprint of 1 maybe?).

[Peter Parker]

IST has the DM SHIELD Cover as the top seller. Hard to resist that one.

I don't see that. Why would that be a top seller right now? Was it on massive discount yesterday?
