I wish the Punisher comic by Ennis/Dillon would have been reprinted in the Marvel Knights omnibus of their run. I think I left my copy in the case when I sold it.

Lord Zarak

Transformers Prime Season One has a "limited edition" set that comes with a prequel comic.

joltman

The Maze Runner BD came with an original prequel comic
Dawn of the Dead Ultimate Edition DVD came with the first issue of the adaptation
Are we including digital copies? Like how X-Men: First Class came with a digital download of an original comic (The High Hand)

majorjoe23

I had a Coffin Joe DVD from about a decade back that came with a comic.

Trevor

I'm torn on this. Part of me loves being able to get content that I missed; but when I go out of my way and sometimes pay a premium to get 'exclusive' content, I want it to stay exclusive and hate to see it made available later.

John Pannozzi

I know that the Best Buy version of Todd McFarlane's Spawn: 10th Anniversary Edition (the HBO animated series) included a mini-comic reprint of Spawn #1.

Turns out the Hellboy 2 minicomic consists of reprints: http://www.comicbookdb.com/issue.php?ID=148854

The Valeyard

I forgot about that Spawn reprint. I ended up with 2 copies for some reason.

The Valeyard

Bumblebee comes with a comic.

Red Hood

The regular release or a store exclusive?

The Valeyard

Regular release.

Red Hood

Cool. Thanks for the info

dvd-4-life

What about comic books in cereal boxes(going back to the 1960s)?

The Valeyard

You can start a thread for that if you want.

There. Are. A. LOT.

The Valeyard

Just realized that the Target exclusive Spider-Man Homecoming Blu-Ray came with an exclusive comic.

joltman

Found out yesterday there was a Doctor Strange comic that came with a Wal-mart exclusive DVD of The Invincible Iron Man (2007 animated film)

The Valeyard

The upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog Blu-Ray is coming with a limited edition comic.

Red Hood

The Best Buy exclusives of Batman: Gotham by Gaslight and Suicide Squad: Hell To Pay come with limited edition comic books each.

Red Hood

The Collector's Edition of Once Upon a Time in America includes a little Mad Magazine comic book like the one shown on the film.

Trevor

Thanks for the updates Red Hood . And needless to say, if anyone ever feels like selling any promo or FCBD sort of comics, those are areas where my OCD collecting will likely always continue.

morriscroy

Fringe season 4. (IIRC, a BestBuy exclusive).

The Valeyard

My OCD is splitting me in two - Do I keep the comics with the DVD/Blu-Rays or do I put them in bag and boards and store them with my comic collection.

Trevor

Obviously one must own two of each, one on the media shelves, and one in the comic boxes!

But more seriously, I finally decided that all promo comics get filed in their own box(es). My collection is an unorganized jumble right now, but once I’m done I figure I’ll have a couple boxes of FCBD books, one HalloweenFest, and at least one “other”. I also plan to have my signed books in a separate box, and then one box for all my high priced books. So if I had to flee in a fire or somesuch, I might be able to grab the valuable and rare stuff quickly. Or more likely, make it easy for thieves.

ddrknghtrtns

As long as you keep the books in an unmarked box, good chance thieves won't bother them. They are mostly looking for safe boxes, guns, prescription/illegal drugs and game consoles. Now, I probably be more afraid of them stealing my food, cleaning products and toilet paper.
