I've got the Walt Simonson Thor Omnibus and I have had no problems with it, and that book is thick as morning dick.

I stopped buying the softcover trades of Hickman's Fantastic Four/FF after the first six or seven volumes so that I could read the whole thing in the omnibus but I just checked Amazon and discovered that it doesn't collect everything and that a volume 2 is coming at some point.

redbackground posted:It's a pretty long run, dude. (edit: 60 issues, I think? The gigantic loving ASM omnibus doesn't even have that many.) Yeah, I put that together after I noticed the "Volume 1" in the title. Still disappointing. irlZaphod posted:Yeah but it includes the Dark Reign: FF stuff, and it's printed in reading order too. I'm the same, I bought 5 or 6 of the HCs, but only read 1 of them because I saw the omnibus was on the way. And that's the selling point for me, I think. The very thought of reading one issue in a trade, then another issue in another trade, and so on, really rubs me the wrong way.

Anyone know if there are any plans to collect Fraction's Defenders into an OSHC? I've heard it's great and I dig my shorter runs collected in the biggest books possible.

Senor Candle posted:I'm going to wait until it's (hopefully) collected in Omnis since. They haven't announced anything yet but I can dream! I'm doing the same and hoping for the best. I got the first two Avengers trades and the first New Avengers trade and love it so far but due to $$$$$ concerns at the moment and the wonky way that Infinity ties in I'm just going to omni-wait.

Money has been super tight this last year or so but I just got a better paying job. I need to get caught up on my comics and I prefer larger formats (Happy Hippo n' omnibuses A/A/F). I'm dying to read Hickman's Avengers/New Avengers and was wondering if any OSHCs have been announced (I'm sure an omnibus will be a while). Does anyone know if they will blend in the NA issues with the Avengers issues like they are doing with the Fantastic Four/FF omnibus vol 2? Or is that not necessary? How does Infinity fit into all this (by this I mean when the omnibuses come out will it be included?)? Basically, what would be the best way to collect it all in the largest possible volumes?

I'm eyeing the OSHCs of Hickman's Avengers/New Avengers and Avengers volume 1 ends on issue 11 while volume 2 starts at issue 14. Where are issues 12 and 13 collected?

I really want that upcoming X-Men Children of the Atom box set that's due in March. Instead of covering a bunch of different arcs from every era it just chronologically goes from Stan Lee and Jack Kirby's X-Men #1 to Uncanny X-Men #143, John Byrne's final issue.

I've bought many hardcovers and omnis through Amazon over the years and not once have I gotten anything dinged or damaged in any way. Just lucky I guess?

I'm interested in collecting X-Men in hardcovers, oversized hardcovers preferred, and was looking around at what's been collected in omnibuses so far to map out a game plan. The first six omnis (The X-Men volumes 1 and 2, Uncanny X-Men volumes 1-4) cover issues 1-193 but then there's a gap between Uncanny X-Men vol 4 and the Mutant Massacre omnibus where we're missing issues 194-209. Does anyone know if those are collected in an omnibus or an OSHC? tia

A question for anyone else who owns the X-Men Children of the Atom box set. The books in the box set are packed in together very, very tightly. Is this something that affects all of them, or specifically just mine? I own the Avengers box set too and those books aren't packed in even remotely as tight. tia

Big Bad Voodoo Lou posted:Has anyone been to Ollie's lately? I really enjoyed Dennis Hopeless' Spider-Woman series, and those TPBs seem like the kind of books that would end up on deep discount at Ollie's, but I've never seen them there. Of course, I haven't been since before the pandemic started. I have, I went less than a week ago and it was the usual stuff they'd had for a good long while. Ollie's in Nashville, if that makes a difference.

JordanKai posted:Geminites is good. The person who admins the group, Gem Mint Collectibles, also has a very good Youtube channel. He buys nearly every omnibus and OHC that comes out, so if you ever want a sneak peak at what a new collection is going to look like, he's your guy. I'm in that group and have been following his Youtube channel for about two years. I've been into comics for most of my life and he taught me about stretching your spines on omnis. I never knew that was a thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxnjiucGoiU

My big years-long project is owning and reading everything X-Men related in omnis and OSHCs. I'm also a trade-waiter so I'm not up to date on what's what regarding floppies, and I'm wondering how Hickman's stuff is going to be collected. Should I be picking up the OSHCs (I got HOX/POX) or waiting for a potential omni? And there are what seem to be tons of monthly mutant books being published right now, so I'm wondering if these series are all being overseen by Hickman, and if so, do they need to be read in an order that is less intuitive a la Hickman's Fantastic Four/FF?

zer0spunk posted:I think they hide books after it goes out of stock in the system when you search, but if you google instocktrades bookname you'll usually find the link to the book. It works if they restock a book exactly with the same variables, New PTG you can't exactly predict since it's going to be a new entry/isbn in theory, and (Res) seems to be a unique restock listing as far as I can tell. With the way they randomly restock omnis now it doesn't hurt to have those weird entries wishlisted so when they pop up you can be one of three people that gets one. Yep, I googled it like you said and found the Opena cover which is the one I prefer! Again, thanks!

New omnibus was just announced on the Near Mint Condition YouTube channel. What If..? vol 1 will be released in August 2021. It'll collect What If volume 1 #1-15 and #17-22. I think #16 is a Shang-Chi story and it can't be collected due to some rights issue with Fu Manchu?
