Got my latest IST order. The level of effort to get the foam packing all around is impressive. Doom Patrol Silver Age Omnibus, War of Kings Aftermath Omnibus, last Snyder Batman trade and some Criminal trades. I picked up the vol 2 Criminal Deluxe edition before so at least wanted the trades to get it started (wasnt able to pick up vol 1).
Can't recommend IST to Canadian and other shoppers enough. Play around with your cart and you can get it at least the same if not cheaper than other sites even with the shipping added in. It takes the annoyance of damaged books away. The downside is that its not a one book order type thing.
I just spent a TON of money on a TON of books - too embarrassed to say exactly how much/how many.
BUT, I did do the math, and it comes out to roughly $1.65 per issue collected in all the books. And these are all high quality, over-sized, deluxe hardcovers with no ads. When you consider that the typical floppy is $4 these days and littered with ads, that's a hell of a deal!
last few weeks, i stopped watching the show a while ago, but for some reason i still get the WD, cracked and got Irredeemable even after getting burned with the slipcase edition, DD is i think the 3rd time of buying

I always like seeing more JB in people's hauls! What version of TWD is that?
“We have a saying, my people. Don’t kill if you can wound, don’t wound if you can subdue, don’t subdue if you can pacify, and don’t raise your hand at all until you’ve first extended it.”
to be honest, i can't remember a great deal about it, so it's going to be almost like a new read, if memory serves it's a standard Superman turned evil story, just a bit more violent
Slipcase edition, they do two version, this one and a signed one, i think they collect around 24 issues, absolute size.
I'm loving this new JB stuff
nice! Irredeemable is a good decision, I think vol4 is out now and there's gonna be only one more if I'm not mistaken so this time they should collect it all the way through.
And yes it's your basic Superman turns evil story, it's very cynical and mean at points but it doesn't hold back and Waid wrote it and that man LOVES Superman so you can tell he has more planned than just pissing on DC stand ins.

Came a little earlier than usual (I usually order on Tuesdays and get last week's order on that day). Continuing the Brubaker shelf and some other stuff I wanted.
