Who's bright idea was it for the creator's comments after each issue of 52 in the trades spoil things in upcoming issues? Thanks for spoiling who Batwoman is right after she's introduced, Dan DiDio...

My Fraction Iron Man Only problem is, I'm going to catch a train to my folks place straight after work, so I don't know whether to bring them with me, or leave them in the office until Monday.  I just hope they bring out the rest of the run in this format...

onefish posted:Re: InStockTrades-- wow. Hadn't heard of them. Went and looked, and better prices than Amazon or B&N (right now, at least). And apparently much better packaging according to reviews/commentary. Fair warning though. The one time I used them they took fifteen days between placing my order and shipping it.

I just got myself the Fall of the Mutants omni and it's great, but I was wondering if there is a hardcover that encompasses all the stuff that takes place right before (mutant massacre mostly). I'm not a fan of paperbacks and I prefer OSHC or omni format. But if no hardcover is available, I'll obviously have to buy the paperback, but I see that there are 2 paperbacks released in 2010 - one is 256 pages, one is 320. If those are my only choices, would there be a reason to not get the 320 page one?

Someone here mentioned that IST is actually cheaper than Amazon on some things so I went and looked at some stuff I had on my wishlist... this is both a good and bad thing

I actually just saved like 50 bucks getting the Rucka Wonder Woman trades from IST instead of random sellers on amazon. They didn't have one of them though so I have to eat the amazon cost on that one. Sucks. And they didn't have any of the Joe Kelly Supergirl trades. And amazon doesn't either.

So there's no reason I shouldn't sell my Sinestro Corps Wars HC's for the Absolute Edition right? And then do the same for Blackest Night and Final Crisis and whatever else

I'm pretty sure his tenure there was very rocky and he didn't leave under good terms. I know he was re-writing things constantly, trying to make sense of Supergirl's new, hosed up status quo.

This is a somewhat more specific question; does anybody know if the IDW Angel series has only been collected as hardcovers? I've been able to find the four After the Fall collections as paperbacks, but I can only see hardcover versions of the subsequent series.

drat you TFAW sale  Still, 9 books for under $80 ain't too bad... right? Between this, the Marvel Omni blowouts, and the Fantagraphics sale, I think I have too much to read. Plague of Frogs HC V.3 is only $13.99 right now. (nick and dent sometimes are limited to just one copy FYI). Tempted by that Groo Artist Edition as well. Oh yeah. That ultrarare collector's item Astonishing X-Men variant is gettin' sliced and diced for a bind. sporklift fucked around with this message at 04:58 on May 27, 2013 |

The artist editions are HUGE. I think almost twice the size of an absolute though they only contain five or so issues. I mentioned it because they are hardly ever discounted past 5-10%. sleepingbuddha posted:I'm counting 10. How much was the Absolute? I've spent way too much on TFAW sales over the years. I think I still have books from their last Black Friday sale I still haven't read. The Astonishing X-men is just a single ish I picked up instore to complete a binding project. I didn't count it as part of my order. The Absolute was $30, it's a little dinged up. Don't see Absolutes in these sales too often.

They're the closest thing to holding the original art in your hands unless you're rich enough to hold the original art in your hands.

I think the big problem people had is that there were rumors that it was just upscaled from the TPB art, and that it was done poorly enough that you could tell. I haven't actually looked at my copy in a couple of years (which probably means I should part with it...) but I don't remember thinking anything looked off.

I think the graininess people are claiming is just due to being able to see the texture of the paper used in the original painting better. I dug it. AmericanBarbarian posted:What is the TFA sale?

redbackground posted:Unrelated: I don't know about the Marvel's Finest edition but the new TPB holds up well in comparison to my singles in terms of art reproduction (it doesn't seem blown up from smaller scans or anything like the review on Amazon says). The problem is the colour, which is really muted throughout. It's not horrible, but definitely distracting if you're familiar with how it looked originally.

I've been trying to track down a copy of the Doctor Who: Endgame graphic novel recently. It seems to have gone out of print, however, and when I contacted Panini I was informed that there are currently no plans to reprint it. I've had no luck on eBay and I've yet to check the local Forbidden Planet, but does anybody know any sites for hard-to-find books that may be worth checking out?

Zenith complete collection is coming! http://www.2000adonline.com/news/29-05-2013/zenith_to_be_reprinted/ And the bad news... Limited edition of 1000, only available from the 2000 AD online store and Bleeding Cool are reporting it's going to be £100. Been waiting for this for a long time but at that price I'll pass. Hopefully a more reasonable priced version will come out further down the line.
