Random Stranger posted:That does seem a bit redundant with the Absolutes but I'm not going to shed tears on it taking a slot in the printing schedule. Don't forget the annotated Sandman too. I'm mostly pissed because I've had to tell multiple customers at the shop that we can't order them Lucifer paperbacks because they are out of print, oh, and good luck finding them online, because if they were even anywhere remotely affordable online, we'd have ordered some and had them in stock. I know Sandman is a cash cow, but the fact that they let its 75-issue multiple-Eisner nominated spinoff go out of print while producing poo poo like this is frustrating.

I generally enjoy about half of his Marvel stuff (namely UFF and X-men: Supernovas), but his Vertigo is all aces for me. Hellblazer, Lucifer, Crossing Midnight, and The Unwritten. Also, part of the reason I love this forum is that there are at least a few people who, like me, enjoyed Lucifer more than Sandman. bairfanx fucked around with this message at 02:46 on Dec 11, 2012 |

I'm currently working my way through BPRD and just finished Vol 3 of Plague of Frogs. I noticed some of the paperback collections (9 - 1946, 13 - 1947 and 15 - Being Human) are not collected in the hardcovers. Are these just side-stories unrelated to PoF? Are they going to be collected in hardcover, or should I just get the softcover ones?

Not sure if they are going to be collected, but the 194X stories are basically Professor Bruttenholm running around Europe before finding Hellboy and starting the BPRD. Being Human is a collection of one shots giving history to the BPRD members. All three are expansions to the characters, but not really relevant to the main storyline.

The 19X does introduce us to some important characters and seem to be more set up for the vampire storyline that they will get to eventually.

I'm almost certain – but can't find a source, I'm afraid – that we've been told that 1947, 1948, 1949 and Vampires will be collected in one HC.

Marvel solicits are out, nothing spectacular on there. The price on this bad-boy made me laugh thoughquote:WOLVERINE: THE ADAMANTIUM COLLECTION HC I guess that worldwide slipcase shortage is really pushing prices up. Mind you, they're also trying to get away with charging $24.99 for the Iron Man hardcover, all 112 pages of it. The equivalent of $5 an issue. And I wonder why I haven't bought a Marvel collection in over a year...

I got the first HC-volume of Fables today, and is it just me, or is the gutter really tight? Some pages are cumbersome to read due to the text almost creeping into the spine...

That one won't surprise me if they do another printing. It may be just that the stocks of existing copies have run dry while they wait for a hole in the schedule.

If they are glued they will fall apart eventually hardcover or not. Take a look st early Marvel Omnibus hardcovers. They are piles of poo poo. Binding is the key, not if it is hardcover or softcover

Just a question: anybody have a good source on where I can find 'Occult Files of Dr. Spektor' Volume 4 around? Apparently Dark Horse doesn't print their archives unless they have sellers and it just completely slipped me by. That said, does anybody know if the Creepy and Eerie Archives will be lost when Dark Horse loses the copyright for the Gold Key stuff? Just trying to sort out my finances so I can avoid another Spektor Volume 4 incident.

I believe Dark Horse is retaining the rights to Creepy and Eerie, the GK stuff they aren't renewing are Solar, Turok and Magnus.
