The Thanos Wars: Infinity Origin Omnibus

It's basically Starlin's introduction of Thanos in his Warlock book from the '70s, culminating in an epic showdown with Avengers, which "killed" him off,...

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

Well, I just spent a TON of money on a TON of books - too embarrassed to say exactly how much/how many.

BUT, I did do the math, and it comes out to roughly $1.50 per issue collected in all the...

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

Planet Hulk Omnibus just came out, and I'm sitting on the fence about buying it.

...talk me into, or out of it.

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

The only bummer with the Byrne Avengers Omni is that he didn't stay to finish out his story, and the last 10 issues are by other writers. They don't mess it up or anything, but the story does seem to...

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

Just bought Avengers by John Byrne Omnibus

It's a smaller omnibus, and it's mostly his West Coast Avengers run, which I enjoyed back in the late '80s.

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

When I'm away on vacation, I'm too busy doing shit to read. So taking books with me, Omnibuses or even little paperbacks, are a non-issue. And if I do need something to read while lounging by a pool...

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

I've been reading so many Omnibuses and Absolutes, that when I do read something in standard size, it's too small. Kinda like going from a big TV to a smaller one. Reading them at home is no problem...

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

I just got it in the mail yesterday. It's beautiful. Nice, thick sturdy pages, that are somewhat matte. The colors do look a bit washed out due to the bright white paper. The line work seems a little...

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

Early word is that it's solid (though they skip material from Action #600 even though it's in the older trades)

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

It has 25 issues, (1-24 + an annual), so it's just under the average omnibus, page-count wise, since most of them hover around 30 issues, give or take. And it retails for $75 instead of the more...

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

Stern's Spiderman run is my favorite set of Spiderman stories (that is despite most of the art, which I don't much care for).

Just got this.
Such a cool cover, that I don't even care that it's...

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

Yeah, most Marvel Omnibuses seem to sell out in just a few months now, and alternate covers are gone in a day. That's why I've been pouncing on them the day they're available. That's when they're...

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

I don't seem to have a problem reading Omnibus books at all, even the really big, >1,000 page ones. I just sit in a comfy couch, with the book in my lap.

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

I actually think the build-up and the Silver Surfer issues are the best part.

Re: What's the last TPB/Graphic Novel you bought?

Speaking of this "Infinity" stuff, I also picked up the Infinity Gauntlet Omnibus recently.
I'd say that it's still the best "event" storyline Marvel's ever done. Get it now, before it sells out,...
