Marvel Omnibus/Oversized Hardcover Discussion Part IV

[NZ_InFerno]

What volume of Punisher Max is that at the bottom?

Volume 5, was unavailable for a while there so bought it when it came back into stock recently. Completes the run for me, got v4 in trades as I'm not paying $100+ for it.

just got impatient, just bought all 3 annihilation, 2 conquest and the war of kings. Figured i might as well finish the groupling as i already have realm of kings, thanos on order and the nova book on its way.

Credit card wasn't impressed lol.

Nice, that is some great reading there. As Pandemic said Guardians of the Galaxy is something that you definitely want to pick up as it holds the core of the cosmic stories. Should be pretty inexpensive and available too.

Looks like #5 to me.

Bingo!

I wish my Death of Captain America would arrive. I am kind of worrying on that one - it really sucks in Australia getting stuff like books from overseas where the transit times vary so insanely. Especially places like Alibris where they ship to Alibris, then Alibris on ship it.

I didn't know that was what happened, explains why it can take a month to get books off there then.

Thanks Kylun! Any idea how long that coupon's good for? This would make Untold Tales of Spider-Man down from 61.72 to $49.37 + a few bucks for tax. That's a pretty good deal (although it's STILL not in stock at a lot of the online places, so not sure how low it would go at some of them).

*** Again, like Omnibus and others have said, if you're not in the USA, I would recommend IGNORING this, as the shipping issues and return issues could be too much of a hassle. Although the last order I made with B&N, my AoA omnibus, came in a box with wadded up paper all around the book, which I was impressed with from them, and the book came in pristine condition.

Paying cover is all but the fainest of hopes, my friend. Expect to pay well over that, especially for WOK.

How did you do with your B&N issue where they wanted you to ship the book back at your cost? Any happy ending there?

I wonder how long it's good for.
Tempted to use it on Untold Tales of Spider-man. The total cost would be right at $54, that's after tax.
Hedge my bets, see if B&N does a steeper discount perhaps.

Whoever missed out on Wolverine Omnibus when CGN raised the price to $129.99 plus $5.99 shipping.

Go to CGN's Ebay store and get it for $88.88 plus $8.99 shipping.

Funny how they do that isnt it...

[Awesome!]

They did the same thing with Absolute Promethea 1 recently. I'm assuming they can't change the ebay price as the auction is running? I dunno, I don't sell stuff on ebay.

[Omnibus]

Funny how they do that isnt it...

My guess is they forgot to change the price on Ebay listings. They did adjust price on Amazon to $139.99.

My advice is pull the trigger now before they fix it.

Are the recent Daredevil, Punisher and Moon Knight as good as what most people make them out to be? Should I hold out for the OHC and Omnibuses?

Moon Knight is ehhh Waid's Daredevil and Rucka's Punisher are great however.

Waid's DD is for sure. I wouldn't be surprised if it got the omnibus treatment.

This, though given the low issue counts I wouldn't hold my breath on seeing any of them omni'd for at least a few years. I could see Daredevil getting an OHC sometime later this year or next year, though. I don't think Punisher's selling well enough to warrant it. I could see a Moon Knight OHC happening collecting all 12 issues, but again, the sales aren't really there.

[krisis]

Did we ever wind up with a separate binding thread? Because, I am about to go in that direction hard-core to fill some TPB/HC gaps, and I'd love to discuss it with you fine folks without cluttering this thread.

At the rate they're going DD will be ready for an omni by next year. We're 18 issues in by June (14 issues in the main series, plus 10.1, Avenging Spider-Man 6, Punisher 10 and ASM 677). Without factoring in double-shipping, more .1 issues and crossovers we're due to have 24 issues done by December.
