Besides Eternals, which should be brought back with a new print and sewn binding.

It’s time to bring back the New X-men run collecting the work of Grant Morrison, this volume is going for a ton on eBay. The demand is there and yet as with Eternals, we have another case of new news of this being reissued. Add in sewn binding and make it happen Marvel.

I have some of these issues already, but to get it all in one nice volume with sewn binding would be great. And a deal worth having.

So if your an X-men fan, or Omnibus fan let me know what you think. And if you don’t believe the prices just check eBay under completed auctions. That is a crazy amount of cash some people have.

Though I am going to order it online, at the comic shop I saw the Iron Man Omnibus on display. It was wrapped in the plastic still, so I couldn’t flip it open. But the size and look of it was impressive.

Speaking of Iron Man, he was in Free Comic Book Day with a Marvel Adventures issue with Spider-Man and the Hulk on the cover. Great stuff, and I hope you got it.

The comic shop was crowded but I got my fill and I hope you did to. After all, Free Comic Day is the one day when the industry and the comic shops give back, and that is a great idea.

Hi all,

We need the Eternals Omnibus released again. This volume, which I missed is going for over $100 online. And is no longer released. I admit I missed this volume and didn’t collect these books then.

But it seems from what I’ve seen online, the demand is there. And prices are really up there.

I really want to enjoy these Kirby issues. I also heard this original volume had glue binding. And the art in the middle was hard to see in some places.

Marvel Comics should issue this volume again, in a new print and use the sewn binding.

Anyone else have similar thoughts or ideas?

I’m hearing that the Iron Man Omnibus is out!

But only in comic shops. I’ve checked Amazon, but it’s not out yet. I’ll wait because I get a better deal online, then I ever get in my comic shop. Which is cover price plus tax. And their is no way I’m paying that. And you shouldn’t either. Online is the best place to buy Omnibus books on discount. Or to wait for a comic convention and see what the dealers have.

Sure, it takes a bit longer to wait online, but it’s worth it if you can save.

So give the Iron Man Omnibus a look if your comic store has a display copy. But order it online if you really want to save. Well, I can’t speak for you but that is my plan and how I order.

Just wanted to say that the Hulk Omnibus is planned for June. I’m planning to get the regular cover version. Not the Alex Ross cover variant. But to each their own, right?!

This nice volume will collect:

- Hulk #1-6, the Hulk’s Original 6-issue run before the series was canceled.
-Tales to Astonish #59-101, and Incredible Hulk #102.

Basically it covers all the Tales to Astonish run and then into Hulk #102 as the end point.

The numbering was picked up from Tales to Astonish and changed to the Hulk name for the books title again.

With writing Primarily by Stan Lee and Art by Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, Gil Kane, Bill Everett and more. Yeah, it’s a must buy for me.

Hope you’ll like it as well.

I can’t wait to get the Iron Man Omnibus when it’s out. I always like the original cover versions and have not bought any variant covers. But that’s just my choice.

This Omnibus will have the much preferred sewn binding.

It Collects Tales of Suspense #39 to issue #83 and Tales to Astonish #82, which was a crossover book and part of a continued storyline.

In this first volume some amazing things happen.

We get to see:

- Iron Man’s origin

- The Ditko design used for the first red /gold armor.

- The evolution from the original gray armor, all the way to the classic red / gold armor that that lasted for decades.

- The start of his rogues gallery, especially the early stories of the Mandarin

- Stan Lee, Larry Lieber writing, with Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, Don Heck, Gene Colan handling the art.

Yeah, this volume is a must buy for me, and I hope you too.

Bring on the Iron Man Omnibus!
