Just a heads up that the forum name has been tweaked to Classic Comics & Collected Editions, if you sub to the threads you may not notice but I reckon it's a lot better than just Classics & Collected.

Looks like Book Depository has come through on Metabarons Genesis: Castaka and they have some left in stock if anyone is looking. It's cheaper than when I placed my order too.
Anybody recommend the Invincible collections? Is it worth trying to track down the library editions vs. the ultimate editions?
New this week:
- Lots of Moebius. Gorgeous artwork - goes without saying
- Nobrow 9 (to finally see what all the fuss is about)
- "Auf den Spuren Rogers" - French BD about French POWs during WW II; based on the diary of (I think) the author's grandad
- Ant Colony - also to see what everyone's been raving about
- Vita Obscura - a collection of Sunday page- style comics about obscure historical persons and events by Simon Schwartz, one of Germany's best new comic artists/writers; he really experiments with the structure of the pages/panels here
Was the Savage Dragon Ultimate Collection ever re-solicited?
Hm, I was convinced that they won't do any more, because the last one was almost 3 years ago, but I started counting the pages and the issues collected in the library editions, and it is possible that they are just waiting for enough issues to be published so they can be collected in a library edition.
But I would say, go for the ultimate collections. Invincible is a never ending soap opera and it could be frustrating to wait 2-3 years between Library editions.
Yeah, then cancelled again, then resolicited, then cancelled, and so on...I'll believe it when i see it haha
The ultimate collections collect 12 issues, or two tpbs, and come out roughly a year after that last issue is released, the library editions collect 24 issues, or two ultimate collections, and come out way after that second ultimate collection is released.
