So 432 pages, how many issues will that be Phil? 19? It tells you on the product page. -Ralph |

20.
How many issues per volume did those other recent volumes have?
Will Phil buy these same stories again??

The first omnibus had 1-29 plus a crossover issue. Epics are more manageable shelf-wise so this is quite appealing.

As actual books perhaps they're bigger and more impressive, but in terms of expense and storage space I'd prefer an Epic. Besides, they have a uniform trade dress.

As do Omnibii.

And that is the magic of having the same material in different formats for different audiences.

In which case the Omnibus Trade Dress changes and therefore is not Uniform!

The trade dress has not changed. Only the specific series logo on the spine.

 Font sizes drastically altered, spine picture added |

Oh it's fine. Not that different. You can still tell they are all from the same range, except for the non-Omnibii you have shoved in there.

I feel no rush. I'll get a copy when pennies allow. These aren't limited-edition-sells-out-in-minutes items. Plenty of retailers carry them.
I no longer pre-order items for budgeting and stress reasons. I also no longer feel the need to get everything on day of release.

Also, I wouldn't panic. The book isn't in release yet anyway.

Do you think it would be a good idea if Skybound did a ROM new comic & Marvel could only do reprints of Marvel comics. With the human race we see in Void rivals revealed to be from ********* in void rivals v2 & they looking Rom-like.

I'd quite like to see new Marvel ROM comics. Depends on licensing and interest, I imagine.

It might have done but, given Books Etc were missing THREE WEEKS WORTH of Marvel books by the time I cracked on the Rom, I'm happy with the peace of mind it bought me.
I'd quite like Royal Mail to bring it out today like they promised though!

They are literally not late for getting it in. As for RM...oh well! -Ralph |

Post by Philip Ayres on Nov 5, 2024 17:20:57 GMT
This is true. They have this book and this week's book's for sale on date - well apart from the awol Omnibus
MOST of last week's books have also become available today for the first time, a week late.
However Books Etc *usually* have stock 12-7 days prior to publication: in normal circumstances next Tuesday's would be up around now.

I personally can't complain about any store which doesn't get stock in before release date.
Anyway...ROM is now complete in collected form! I never thought we would see this day.

Indeed. Which is why I'm a little cross about mine not turning up as predicted
But yes, not a day I'd thought I'd see.
