I haven't seen one of these in a while, so have it.

I'm waiting on Copra Round 3 to come in, then Grayson, and then in February Kaijumax and a bunch of DCYou vol 1s (Prez, Midnighter, Martian Manhunter)

These came in today. The Venom minicomics are pretty cool. I like Zacchilli's art. Very raw. It came with some stickers and a postcard as well. The Shaolin Cowboy book was crazy. I've never seen so much zombie dick and vag. Die Wergelder is another book that I cannot lend out to people.

I wonder if Kodansha would be ballsy enough to put out Samura's BDSM art book if Die Wergelder does well enough.

I probably wouldn't buy it but it would be interesting to see the reaction of that art book being released in North America.
>>
>>79027372
its the only one i'm interested in for the class
the rest of the reading list is fun home (one of those indie autobio comics about being a lesbian), twilight los angeles 1992, and the two to kill a mockingbird books. I consider myself to be pretty progressive but teacher is literally white guilt 40 year old sjw trying to entrench herself into black culture and it really shows in her reading list
>>
>>79027631
They'd have to have balls the size of planets to publish that. I probably wouldn't buy it either. Samura's art is gorgeous, but I like my sadism with a side of plot like Bradherley's Coach next.

What's the paper quality like in those white Marvel NOW hardcovers? Is it super thin? Or thicker than single issues? How is the binding? Glued or sewn? I've never looked inside them, but am thinking of picking up Aaron's Thor Vol 1 and Fraction's Hawkeye Vol. 1.

>>79037129
How would you rate Lazarus as a series out of ten? How would you rate that hardcover edition. I love Rucka most of the time. I liked the first issue, but didn't keep up with it. Should I pick it up collected?

And can you sell me on Seeley's Revivial series? My interest is piqued, but am not sure if I should make the investment.

it's the same paper in the TPBs, I believe (so yes, thicker than singles) and it's sewn. At least that's what I remember on my Superior Spider-man HCs [which, admittedly, I don't ave with me right now]

Actually I have Noel on order as well, no idea when it's supposed to arrive. Honestly I'm finding the series kind of meh, I don't have a colossal hardon for steampunk like some people do and the art feels very digital-webcomic tier. If the whole thing was in a bold monochromatic style like the covers are I'd probably love it.

But to answer your question I haven't so I can't really say

You actually kind of did. Talbot has done work over a number of styles, and I was wondering whether this was less genre oriented than something like Luther Arkwright.

That's understandable, you cant tell the difference between good comics and bad comics yet.

Yeah it's only $55 on IST, which just seems absurd.
>>
>>79044488
I'm so sorry anon.
Honestly, it's on the better end of Slott's work, and I started with Spidey when I first tried getting into comics.
That was just before OMD, and it killed all interest in the hobby for a number of years.
Either way, Marvel is good for starting out, on the single fact that they use recap pages. DC's a bit uneasy to recommend for beginners, as Nu52 the concept of the Multiverse take some getting used to. Just avoid Bendis and Hopeless, and I'm sure you'll be fine.

Pick up the pre-Secret Wars trades of Ms. Marvel before you get the new issues.

Good decision. Spock is varied in quality, but good choice in what you're looking into. Ms. Marvel starts up before SW, so that's where you should head. There's a HC of the first 2 volumes out if interested. Also try Spencer's Ant-Man and Superior Foes of Spider-man (the latter is getting an Omnibus next month.)
Also recc Deadpool (Don't read Daniel Way. The Gerry Duggan run is how I got back into comics) and Superman: American Alien (ignore the shitposter, it's an interesting take on Superman mythos)

I think that's always been a thing, advanced search is broken since forever so only the basic search works. Your problem might be because of the language you used, I clicked the English button and that versions frontpage is simply not working.

Dutch works fine and as far as I know German does too.

What's the difference between this edition and the absolutes?

Absolutes are Bigger Omnibuses are Fatter

>>79051450
2 oversized omnibus volumes. Nice quality with little to no gutter loss. Haven't acutally read the Absolute versions but there are 5 volumes for almost the same price. They are taller but have fewer pages.

Absolutes are for if you really like the art in a book

Modern Omnibuses are typically for crazy people.

If I'm interested in getting Morrison's Batman, are the Absolutes of the parts of his run worth picking up or should I just get the smaller softcovers?

>>79065427
It depends entirely on how much you like the art for those parts.

You should only ever get absolutes if you absolutely love the art in the book.
>>
>>79065427
The absolutes if you can afford it.
They have redrawn pages and extra content that's really worth the cost.

And real sexual quality binding/pages

Thanks! I was wondering about the extras!

As for the art, I loved Quitely's on Batman & Robin, as well as Philip Tan's, even though everyone else seems to dislike his style. Flamingo was a favorite character of mine from the second B&R arc with Red Hood.

Then in Incorporated, Paquette had some impressive work.

This reminds me: when DC announced Absolute Preacher, I wondered why everyone on various baords said they were excited for that.

Preacher is my favorite Vertigo title ever and I truly appreciate Dillon's art, but getting this in Absolute format? Doesn't make sense to me. Especially since I agree with you about Absolutes and getting them for the art.

Bought these in my last to Buenos Aires.

I've been wanting to get into Corto Maltes for years, and this collection seems perfect for it. I'll buy the others if I like it. There were like 10 numbers in the bookstore.

Also bought the second part of Perramus. The 1st one was very nice.

And Etchenike, which turned out to be a comic-version of an already existing detective novel, but I didn't enjoy it much.

That's mostly because the backup pages aren't in publication order though, right? Or was there another issue?
>>
>>79071955
yeah, because it probably won't get reprinted in another form he was upset that they shoved them all in the back when they follow up on the issue they were in so people won't read as he intended it to be read

>>79071989
that's a shame, you'd figure they could at least fix it if there was another printing

>>79067969
Smorgasbord is much higher quality but I started with the Omnivore editions so I know they are great also. Chew is my favorite series so I am dedicated. For me it was the fact that I would only need 3 Smorgasbord editions versus 6 omnivore editions.
