Payday this week so I ordered myself an early Xmas gift of The Phantom Stranger Omnibus that I’ve been eagerly waiting for what seems an age.
As I was looking up the release for the second omnibus of The Question (Jan), which I’ve been dying to read since I devoured the first, I saw a few new announcements that I am unfortunately excited about. ($$$)
The first is an omnibus of Peter David’s Aquaman. I have the first two books of his Supergirl run which I really enjoyed, and his Aquaman series was highly regarded as one of the best. I’ve been hunting the TPB editions from a few years ago for quite some time, but they are hard to find and expensive now, so this is the next thing to top my wish list.
Then we have the third omnibus of JLI. I have the first two and, while I’m not a huge fan of the campiness of the comedy run, there is a lot of good stuff to be found, for sure. I love reading it for J’onn, more than anything, but I know there will be plenty of entertaining moments from the wide cast.
Number three is a ‘maybe’ on my wish list, depending on feedback I receive here, especially from @Tupka217
Gail Simone’s Wonder Woman is being collected and I hope she brings something new but consistent to the character and mythos. I have only a handful of Diana books and am fully open to more if fans consider the run has merit.
Unfortunately, no sign of the continuation of the NTT omnibus collection. I was really getting invested in a publication I though was going to go the distance.
Anyway, do any of these upcoming titles interest you? Have you seen any upcoming releases that you want to share? What’s the oldest book you bought that you still haven’t gotten around to reading? (I’ve had Superman Exile gathering dust for some time.) What are you reading right now? (I’m on issue #3 of Giffen’s Vext.) What series that has never been been published in trade would you want to own? (Kirby’s Kobra for me as a TPB, or an entire omnibus of Kobra throughout New Earth.)
