Man, I heard about that Invisibles Omni and the size of it made me think it was bullshit so I never posted about it.

Diamond accidentally shipped the X-Statix omnibus to a few stores a week early so a few lucky bastards already have it in their hands.

Corbet posted:So it looks like Morrison's Batman and Robin Vol 1 & 2 Hardcovers are out of print, have we heard anything about his run being collected in one hardcover? Nope. They're issuing new editions of the earlier parts of his Batman run but not B&R. They will probably put out a softcover of it but I doubt a HC is on the horizn any time soon.

Shameless posted:The upcoming Geoff Johns Teen Titans Omnibus has been cancelled. Maybe it will be resolicited. Maybe it won't. The Johns TT Omni is having it's content retooled, I'm pretty sure it will be resolicited. Thunder Agents Chronicles was going to collect all the lovely versions of the book over the years right? I was actually looking forward to that one.

Shameless posted:Ah, that makes sense, couldn't see them cancelling a johns book out of the blue. And yeah, the Chronicles book was the older stuff. Might have just been a reprint of one of the archives is you're that desperate for it. The first Archive is out of print so it's possible. I was hoping they'd eventually collect everything, even that horrible Rob Liefeld issue.

bairfanx posted:Did anyone pick up that classic TMNT hardcover? I'm getting an itch for it, but our shop sold the copy we got before I got a chance to flip through it. It's an excellent package, the paper stock is nice, the art is clean, overall I'd say 4 out of 5. If I had one gripe is the lack of color (YES I KNOW IT WAS B&W). The First collections were very nicely colored and I miss that.

Shameless posted:Do you like Grant Morrison when he's doing his comics meta-commentary stuff? If so then you absolutely should get it. It's a distillation of pure G-Mo. It's arguably his best work and it's got gorgeous Quitely art. I think you're overstating how good it is. Yes it's a fantastic book but 50% of the hype is coming out of the fact that it's been impossible to get a physical copy since it was originally published.

Until about a year ago Amazon used the same listing for both versions of Marvel premier hardcovers so it didn't matter on my end.

Starsnostars posted:If the guy was prepared to get so angry about that I wonder why he didn't just contact you before buying the book to find out which cover it had. You think you're confused? I'm seriously close to closing my Amazon store because of the psychos who shop on the marketplace. I sold a copy of the Pride & Prejudice HC from Marvel and the buyer is flipping her poo poo. She's never been into comics before and doesn't understand the collected edition. It's probably not a good idea to make physical threats via Amazon's messaging system but it hasn't stopped her.

Space_Butler posted:DC Source has modified their list of the New 52 trades/hardcovers. It looks like all the books that are getting canned will end up collecting all 8 issues instead of the first 6, as well as a few titles getting their issue count bumped up to 7. I'm really shocked they're collecting the canceled books. I'll be even more shocked at the retailers that actually order them.

Nothing bugs me more (collected editions-wise) than when the covers aren't placed before each issue. Luckily, it's much more rare now then it used to be.

obi_ant posted:I've never read any of the Batman "No Man's Land" arcs. There seems to be a new set coming out which spreads out over three TPBs. It this set worth picking up? It's 500 pages each at only $20, which is a steal. This is the one I'm referring to. http://www.amazon.com/Batman-No-Mans-Land-Vol/dp/1401232280/ref=pd_bxgy_b_img_c I haven't bought it yet but we have it in the store. Looks pretty good but some of the stuff in the original trades appears to be left out and a few of the comics reprinted look like unimportant pages were skipped.
