Posted November 26, 2023 2/3 of Decembers big releases for me have been put online for sale early so that's helpful. Should be a quieter month. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 16, 2023 I'm going to be breaking glass in case of emergency on Watchmen because I'm well behind with the yearly reading quota and need something quick and dirty to get through. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 14 Latest Omniboo purchases. Probably just one more later this month when Spider-Man Clone Saga vol.1 is released. I wasn't originally gonna get Thor by JMS & Gillen but Marvel snuck the Siege event into it so I felt like I should. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 14 After watching a review of the Thor omnibus and realising that its possible to get an unbroken run of Thor from the 90s to present day I may have gone and bought the others I needed that are still in print. Just one left from the 90s that will hopefully get reprinted one day and I'm sorted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19 And there we go, last book for Jan. I think my next scheduled omnibus releases are 27th Feb so that'll give me a month of savings and a bit of time to try and catch up on all these books. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19 Loved the Clone Saga storyline. Did they ever bring Ben back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19 Just now, Hero-of-Time said: Loved the Clone Saga storyline. Did they ever bring Ben back? Yeah they did. He was Spider-Man again for a bit while Peter was injured then once again they screwed him over so he's currently evil. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 24 It's looking like the Avengers vs X-Men omnibus could be starting to go out of print so I decided to pull the trigger on it while there's a lull in book releases. Probably my biggest omnibus at 1680 pages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 27 @Hero-of-Time you ever read much of Wolverine's solo books? Just been debating trying his Omni's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 28 Decided not to go with Wolverine and instead start filling my earlier Uncanny X-Men gaps. I should only need volumes 1-4 as after that the stories are mostly collected in event omnis I already own like Mutant Massacre so volume 5 onwards would just be double dipping for me. Only vol 3 in print at the moment but I'm sure it won't take long for re-releases of the rest again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 29 I bow to your superior knowledge in these things, but I did pick up an issue or two of Uncanny X-Men a dozen plus years ago and it was like an alternate reality or something. Wasn't like the cartoon as I'd hoped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wasn't like the cartoon as I'd hoped. Yeah they've had a long history with quite a few alternate realities thrown in there. There was a comic series though which was just a continuation of the animated series. It got an omnibus release a few months ago. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That one does have an "omnibus" as well but it's one of those fake paperback Panini ones that they like to call omnibus'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, just looked at it on Amazon. I may pick it up. It's cheap enough and the series seems to have ended with the 10 main issues and a mini series, so there's no worries about having to pick up more volumes.
