All New Marvel Collected Editions

[Andru]

Depends on your idea of "unfinished." Yes Thanos comes back later but this tells a complete story with definite closure. These are some of my all time favorite comics hence the multiple copies in premium format. The Death of Captain Marvel is possibly the most powerful and emotionally moving comic I have read. Plus they not only introduce Thanos but also the Gems and the Titans. There is also some Cosmic Cube action thrown in for good measure; all wrapped in gorgeous Starlin art. If you like Adam Warlock this is where he is established as he is still portrayed to this day.

Thank you! You have convinced me to purchase

Before I venture into the Spider-man forum, I thought I'd ask this here first. Is this the best order to read these books in without having to switch between them as I go?

1. ASM Michelinie/McFarlane omnibus
2. Tombstone vol 1 TPB
3. Spider-man by McFarlane omnibus
4. ASM Michelinie/Larsen omnibus

Thanks

1. ASM Michelinie/McFarlane is first.
2. ASM Michelinie/Larsen comes right after the M/M omnibus
3. Tombstone stories were published concurrently with the ASM M/M omnibus, but can be read independently of the ASM omnibi
2. Spider-Man by McFarlane stories were published concurrently with the ASM M/L omnibus, but has no story crossovers and can be read independently.

I need the second collected edition of Mutant X.

Well, it’s coming, they’ve released the date.

Can anyone please tell if Avengers Omnibus Vol.4 and Savage Sword of Conan Omnibus Vol.1 was out this week? I’m probably one of the few here that still likes to pick it in comic shops rather than order it online but I thought both of them would be out this week? It strange because I saw Infinity War Omnibus was in the shops today even though I didn’t think that was released until next week but no sign of the two I was looking for.

Do people who pre-order it online get it earlier than the specialist comic shops or are the release shipping dates the Same? Thanks.

General release for both titles was April 2nd. However many online retailers plus comic shops get them 2 weeks earlier. So your LCS likely sold out of their initial stock.

I know omnibuses don't sell very well at my LCS, so they usually only order 1 or 2 copies if any at all.

They would have Infinity War as that just came out yesterday (2 weeks before the general release date of April 16th).

Any opinions on Dan Slott's Mighty Avengers?

The Complete Collection is due out soon and I was thinking about picking it up to follow Bendis' Complete Collection.

You could be right about the shops selling out their initial stock. Let’s hope they restock or I might have to try online. Not got anything against buying online but I guess I’m just a bit set in my ways and I do look forward to my weekly shop visits to do a bit of buying and plenty of browsing.

Thanks again.

I much prefer Slott’s run to Bendis’ on this series. I say go for it!

I thought it started kind of weak and ended weak but most of the issues in the middle were very good. You might like it if you like the Young Avengers and Inhumans.

Thank you both!

I have a question about the Miles Morales Omnibus. It's listed under "Stock Running Low" on the recent list (thanks for that btw, TurtleDog) but as far as I can tell it's only available on the secondhand market. What's the threshold that a book needs to cross to be considered "out of print"?

[JoeGuy]

..........

[T.D.]

It's still in stock on Amazon Canada and maybe a couple of other places. So I imagine once those are gone, it will be officially out of print next update.

Ah, that makes sense. That's my US-centric POV getting in the way! Cheers.
