Happenstance Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 After watching Eternals last night I thought I would finally read one of their books. It's a massive hole in my Marvel comic knowledge. Looked into it and while Neil Gaiman's book is highly thought of, this new 2021 relaunch by Keiron Gillen is apparently a great jumping on point.

Happenstance Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Just waiting for it come in stock from Amazon UK then I think Iām gonna finally get my first omnibus. Iāve always stayed clear of them in the past as I tend to read lying in bed but with the Ultimate Spider-man omnibus getting a reprint that is one series I would love to have in the best possible version.

Happenstance Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Ordered a few more with birthday vouchers. Edited February 6, 2022 by Happenstance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) Edit: ended up switching out all of those Hickman Avengers books (decided I shouldnāt just try to force myself to like Hickmanās stories because everyone else does!) and went for the Spider Gwen omnibus instead. Quite liked the idea of a nice, self contained story that I donāt need to worry about getting sequels to. Plus if Iām getting Ultimate Spider-Man, Miles Morales & Spider Gwen omnibus then thatās quite a good grouping. The only thing thatās a shame is that I would have preferred the alternate cover but I obviously had to go for the one available.

Happenstance Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Wasnāt actually planning on ordering anything else until maybe the Infinite Crisis Omnibus got a price drop but I saw Thor Heroes Return Omnibus on Zavvi for the ridiculous discount of Ā£150 down to Ā£29.99 so figured I just couldnāt pass it up.

I'm just debating whether or not to buy the 2 omnibus' (now that it seems to be becoming a bit of an obsession for meĀ ) or buying the 6 Complete Collection trades.

Happenstance Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I ended up buying the two omnibus'. I do like the idea of complete runs in omnibus format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Ok last omnibus for the month. I wanted to try and get back into DC after struggling so much with New 52 and Iāve heard great things about this run (along with reading a small part of it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happenstance Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 (edited) Debating whether or not to sell off my Spider-man tpb collection so I can rebuy the omnibusā.

Happenstance Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Decided to just go for mix and match for now, fill in gaps with omnibusā in the Spider-man collection. Ordered a few new books anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happenstance Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 (edited) Couple of new books. Might get vol.2 of Fantastic Four if I enjoy it but thatās probably it after that in the hopes that Iāll need to save money for my Steam Deck preorder.

Happenstance Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Swapped out Darth Vader omnibus for Fantastic Four vol.2. Iāve already read quite a bit of that Vader run so it feels like it can wait and with vol.2 of FF thatās the entire run collected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happenstance Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 30 minutes ago, darksnowman said: Have you had a chance to get into these twoĀ yet? Yep Iāve managed to finish both of those. Doctor Aphra was really good, probably my favourite of the new Star Wars books coming out under Marvel now. It maybe lost a bit of the more fun side of it about half way through but still a great read overall. I hear good things about her next series as well but now Iāve got this one in omnibus Iāll have to wait quite a while before the next one comes so they match on my shelf! TMNT was a good spin on the origins of the Turtles and the series is another where Iāve heard nothing but good things about it. Im sure Iāll probably get more of the volumes down the line but Iād be lying if I said they were high on my list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Managed to get a few more books on the cheap. Iāve never read Planetary but as itās always high on ābest ever comicsā list I figured I should give it a shot and as for the others, I do love me someĀ Godzilla.
