>>84341304
I've been meaning to get New Frontier since he passed away. But I feel weird about it.
>>84341325
Is the TMNT book good quality? It looks nice but is always priced a little higher than I would like.

>>84341436
I haven't actually read it yet but it definitely seems to be well put together. It's not too big and it looks like it has a tight binding. I usually favor paperbacks since I am a poorfag but I got this mainly because it came with the micro-series issues (and the story from the 30th anniversary issue) spliced in between the main issues in chronological order, that way I wouldn't have to go back and forth between books.

>>84341570
I used to have the first book that IDW released. It was incredible quality so I think I'll pick this up soon.

>>84341304
That New Frontier paperback is sexy. I gotta pick it up soon.

>>84341928
I'm going to get Doom Patrol one of these days but I have to much of a back log to think about it.

>>84341221
Actually, I am nearly complete. Just one order off TFAW and a trip to LCS in town and I will have the last half-a-dozen books I need. Then one order of all three Superior Spider-Man volumes from IST.

>>84340915
gdi I'm still debating if I even want that Deadly Class HC, the end to issue 21 really pissed me off.

>>84342744
I was in the same boat until I saw it. It is great quality. Plus, I'm this far in. I'm going to finish it now.

>>84342811

Fucking great, but I loved the books before they were comics, the art in Eye of the World tends to change issue by issue, but the general look stays the same and it reads just like one of the books, minus all of the descriptive writing for the characters / places.

I'm really fucking upset that book 2 never got adapted into a comic because that's when shit gets good and my waifu appears

man... /co/ sure doesn't like comic books. I mean they like to steal them digitally, but that's it.

>>84351852

Its quite good, I've got it in floppy, If you like Brubaker and Philips' other stuff you'll like the fade out, it reminds me alot of the movie LA Confidential, has alot of the same themes played out in different ways.

Story opens with a screenwriter named Charlie waking up after a hard night of drinking to find a dead starlet in his apartment and no idea what happened.

Just spirals from there. Hopefully the collected editions include the essays from the end of each issue because they were fantastic.

They're both a little ragged, but Veitch's run is OOP (in the UK, at least) so thought I'd grab them while I could.

No Regenesis, unfortunately, which is the one before these two that picks up where Moore left off. Going to scour a couple of shops tomorrow since I'm in a different city for the weekend and I don't think they went OOP too long ago, so there might still be some lying around.

Isn't that the rape fish comic?
also what's the deal with that huge Dark Souls book? case? is it a comic or just an oversized video game box? special edition? collectors edition? or is it an RPG book?

>>84355196
What do you think of the Supergirl omnibus? I love the way the hardbacks look, but sometimes the thicker hardbacks are difficult to actually read because they're heavy or too tightly bound.

>>84356686
Its the dsII special edition guide.

And yes .Neonomicon is pretty rapey. I bought it thinking it would be a cool lovecraft comic but its fucking terrible. Worse yet, it was my first introduction to Alan Moore. Now i don't even want to read Watchmen.

Latest. Going to be picking up Deadly Class Deluxe and new Luther Strode this month.

Metabarons was a fantastic fever dream. The way the narration was done kind of annoyed me even if there ended up being a reason for it. If anyone hasn't watched Jodorowsky's Dune, I'd highly recommend that you do. Tons of ideas for The Incal and Metabarons come from that failed film.

>>84360469
Vagabond is amazing. Inoue is a beast when it comes to comics. Well, he's a beast when it comes to art in general, I guess. I think it is way better than Kenshin but they aren't that similar honestly.

>>84360267
that thing looks like it's really going to break apart any second.
just buy one of those cheap billy or finnby shelves from IKEA, the finnby series is especially solid, even more so than the billy series. I've got a few of them and stacked some really heavy books into them for about 2 years now, no complaints.

>>84360857
Yeah, I'm aware the shelves are bowing but it's because alll those records on the bottom were at different places on the other shelves, and they weighed too much. I think they're just permanently bowed like that but not under the same amount of stress causing it now.

Still, I'll obviously get something else in the future, thanks for the suggestions.

I own it and advise this. Unless you are a fan of the Luna Brothers. I mainly got it to have the collection from them. I'm much more a fan of The Sword and Ultra: Five Days.

>>84360437
Not really. The rapefish strongly resembles Dagon and other Lovecraftian fish monsters, but Lovecraft was famously prude when it came to sex and his stories never featured any explicit rape or sexual material of any kind. You can kinda argue that Lovecraft's bizarre fear of sex comes through in his original stories as sub-textual, but that's debatable at best.

>>84356848
Moore himself has admitted that he was in a bad place when he wrote Neonomicon and that he may have gone too far. I love Moore's work and I hate Neonomicon. Don't let it put you off from his otherwise great bibliography.

I have two ikea in reasonable distance of me (miami and orlando) and they still want like 150 dollars for shipping on a 100 dollar item.

>>84367100
well it's not the weight of it that's the problem but the sheer size of it. most IKEA stuff is build of ready-made items which are 7-8 ft tall, that doesn't fit into your regular mail package.
most of the time it's more reasonable to actually cross the state border with a pick-up, buy all the shit at IKEA you ever needed, eat a few swedish meatballs and then drive back home.

>>84359801
>>84354437
The first one is the physical version of the digital version on Steam. I got it from the 'Gamer's Edition' they have on the Devolver Digital store, though there might be a stand-alone version soon. Aside from the comic, the other main thing i got it for was the notebook describing how they designed the characters (Biker's hoodie, for instance, partially came from Ben Reilly)

The second one isn't a book, its (most of) the soundtrack to HLM2 on record.

The shipping rates are ridiculous when you need one item. But they charge the same flat rate shipping no matter how much you buy. You could buy a house worth of stuff for the same price.

Damn the Knightfall omnibus is collecting the whole thing
>Collecting the entire Knightfall saga in a single hardcover edition for the first time, including BATMAN: VENGEANCE OF BANE #1, BATMAN #491-514, DETECTIVE #659-681, SHOWCASE 93 #7-8, BATMAN: SHADOW OF THE BAT #17-34, ROBIN #7-13, CATWOMAN #6-7, BATMAN: LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT #62-63 and more

Apparently the Batman & Robin by Morrison got upgraded to an omnibus

>>84373053

You should save up so you don't have so many 1s sitting there without 2s.

>>84373636
>Damn the Knightfall omnibus is collecting the whole thing

Seems too big and should have been split into two. Gonna have to buy an altar just for that book.

>>84373643
Hastings bought out Moviestop, and I worked there. I subscribed to Rachel Rising and after two months they started sending me copies.

>>84374418
>You should save up so you don't have so many 1s sitting there without 2s.
I usually just buy trades of stuff I've been recc'd to see if they're good. If I haven't bought a 2 by now I either haven't read through the whole thing yet or wasn't interested enough to keep reading.

>>84371418
What's your favourite Star Wars book?

>>84376021

Really depends how I'm feeling. There is something for everything in SW /co/. Dark Times for feels and grim atmosphere. For fun and 'that Star Wars feeling' I would have to say Knights of the Old Republic; it has a fun main character and cast, and expands nicely on the setting, being too early to rely too much of PT/OT tropes.

>>84376318
Thank you!

>>84376515

Welcome. The Dark Horse 'Republic' run is also pretty good, if you don't mind soul crushing depression. Dark as hell the majority of the time, but some of the stories are amazing.

Even worse is when its the same series, Meredith Gran's Octopus Pie has been collected by Image, the first 3 are landscape format. Unfortunately Gran changed her story set-up, so when the 4th collection came out, it was general comic book size.

>>84373636

There's a 0% chance DC will release a 2000+ page omnibus. There's a reason it's labelled Volume 1 and their content listings for books more than a few weeks out are almost always very wrong.

It'll be two volumes at least.

>>84392289
yeah, it lists 79 issues with "and more"
no way they make one omni

Dammit I was thinking of just getting the hardcovers of the run since I also want the Tomasi portion of Batman and Robin. But if they are actually doing an Omnibus I'll have to wait just see what's on it.

>>84394943
Not that guy, but I read and enjoyed the first 3 arcs, even thought it suffered a bit with the artist switch.

The big problem is that the collected editions are fucking expensive having only 4 issues each.

Is it worth buying the Gotham Central omnibus?

I'm in the market for a new omni, but I am not sure which one to buy. My choices are:

1) Gotham Central Omnibus
2) Shang-Chi Master of Kung Fu Omni
3) Guardians of the Galaxy by Abnett and Lanning Omni
4) Daredevil by Frank Miller Omni

I have never read ANY of these. Suggestions? I could afford ONE a month (maybe). Order of purchasing ideas? I know I want and can afford at least one.

>>84397171
I would personally get the Daredevil by Miller omni but Gotham Central is also really good

>>84355926
Seems sturdy and durable and isn't bending under that shit, unlike this guy's
>>84360267
or mine

>>84389665
Awww, shucks.
>>84394943
It's a good series, but I wouldn't say it's worth the $60-90 to collect 14 issues across three volumes. If you're interested, maybe try the digital version.

Disclaimer: I'm just borrowing them from a friend over the summer. He's a big Rucka fan, so it was worth it to him.

>>84346155
Very late but I don't think this was answered; it's bound, not glued like BS. Much easier to open.

What should I read now that i've read the valiant? What are the highlight/standout books of nuValiant?

>>84402671
archer & armstrong is absolutely hilarious but also has a good story, but I took a break from comics between 2013 and 2016 so dunno what happened in between until now.

>>84392681

I like it. Really makes it feel like a noir.

How many volumes will Ostrander's Suicide Squad be? Will 4 volumes collect it all?

>>84404219
Probably more like 8-10 volumes considering that volume 4 stops at issue 30 and it's a 68 issue run.

>>84404430

Amazon refunded $15 for the damage shipping caused on the Usagi Special Edition. And yes, it isn't much damage but it is the principle of it. In the end, I can overlook the damage for a less than $35 price tag.

So now I can start devouring Usagi Yojimbo in whole. That's gonna be so much fun.

>>84406471
Get the other 6 books. Also get Sinestro corp war. They're all worth having.

Damn just heard that Genevieve Castree died , just ordered her d+q book a week ago after putting it for for a long time.

Jesus christ there is six other books? What are they? And are they all written by Johns?

>>84407183
Nevermind. I decided to not be a child and googled everything by myself.

>>84407471
Don't skip the Green Lantern Crops books. I actually liked those more than the core book. Both series are worth reading at least through Blackest Night.

>>84408718

hehe

BUMPO

>>84408718
Alright, I'm taking it in note. Green Lantern is a character that pretty interest but is cruelty under represented in my collection so I should change that. But considering the amount of things in my wishlist, these are gonna take a while before I'll get around to it.

>>84406445
>>84406461
It is one of my favorite series, but Dillon's art is not worth the absolute edition.

>>84379845
it's fucking awful

>>84414623
This is undoubtedly a really nice collection with a lot of thought put into it - but every time I see it I can't help thinking how sterile it is.

Do you have a bunch of random trades or things you've picked up not displayed - or do you find yourself planning quite a lot of what you purchase before hand - so pick up more omnibuses and weightier editions.

Don't mean to sound like a dick. Genuinely curious as to how a collection like this develops. Most shelves I see tend to 'tell a story' (as faggy as that sounds) - where you can see more shit that doesn't belong, personal guilty-pleasures and the like.

>>84415606
Yeah. I know my shelf looks like a "best comics" list. I was digital only for years, so I have a very huge backlog of stuff to buy in print that I've already read and would show more of my personality. These were just the first on my list that I got a good deal on or bought first because I fear they may go OOP.

So what do I dig into next, Miller's Daredevil, Uncanny X-Men or do I just start getting Hellblazer TPBs?

>>84415606
I would say this buying behavior is due to omnibus getting so much attention - a $100 hardcover used to be something for hardcore fans, but now it's the most economical way to get a large run collected, making it appeal to casuals and hardcore fans alike.

Plus what used to sell out in years can now sell out in months, so everyone gets hyped over preorders and everyone ends up owning the same shit.

You can tell this is pretty much true because nearly everyone's collection was printed within the last 5 years and because seriously, there was no reason El Eternauta should have sold out and shown up in as many shelf porn threads as it has.

>>84406471
