Coloured Scott Pilgrim? I can dig it.

Them going with "Color" on the cover bothers me more than it should though.

[coconutphone]

Amazing! I'll even keep my original B&Ws.

[DarkKnghtJared]

I'm annoyed that I have all the volumes and yet I still want this.

Ditto. I figure I'll spring for the first volume and see what happens from there. If it's anything like Bone I'll prefer the Black and whites but still be able to appreciate the colour.

I hope it has 'deluxe edition' written on there somewhere too.

[Lee H]

Definitely going to double dip on these.

It's just branded as the 'Colour Edition', which to me is sufficient enough to distinguish it from the original editions. The cover art's entirely different too;

Color hardcovers? Yeah, I will be buying these.

[Johnny P. Sartre]

Well, he had me sold at Scott, color and hardcover

Yep. I have the originals twice over (US versions bought as released, UK versions were a present), and still I'm thinking these are a must buy. Also, it's nice to read an interview with O'Malley for once where he's not asked if he's going back to do more Scott Pilgrim...

Too bad they're going to be in hardcover. That bumps up the price significantly. $18 softcovers would be much more consumer-friendly.

'FINALLY, I HAVE TO SAY: This is the Oni Press edition (serving North America). Foreign editions (INCLUDING U.K.) may take longer or may not happen, it all depends on each individual region’s publisher. I apologize in advance if this process takes longer than we’d all like.'

Just read this part, i live in the UK, damn i was so excited as well.

I wouldn't worry too much. Amazon UK usually still gets Oni books - especially the Scott Pilgrim ones - in as they're released. I got Volume 5 as soon as it was released from Amazon UK, and this was before they started printing the UK Editions. So just keep an eye on Amazon.

Ah great, thanks for your replies!
