I'm sure you've seen them before. Essential Spider-Man Vol. 1 in all of it's black and white glory looming over you at your LCS. I think these are the greatest things in the world. For what, $15?, you can read 25 old comics that would cost a lot more then $15 to ever get a chance to look at. And I know that the art is toned down, blah blah blah, I don't care.

What I'm trying to say is why arn't there Essential Ultimate Spider-Mans or Essential Ultimate FFs, etc. yet? I mean, I would totally buy them. And if there are, virtually slap me for wasting my time typing this.

They are probably more profitable in trade and HC format as of current, Essential tends to reprint a lot of olllllder comics.

I know. But still, 15$ for a black and white version of Ultimate Spider-Man #1-25. I'd be immediately in.

But USM 1-25 are still in print (through trades). The essential books reprint stuff that isn't currently / never was reprinted.
