Nice! I'll take a look at them. I order from CGN, but don't follow them as much as I should - will have to remedy that. Thanks gents!

Definitely Near Mint Condition. There's also a group on Facebook called The Omnibus Collector's Comic Swap and Community where new stuff is discussed, as well as old.

As for sites:

Instocktrades.com
Cheapgraphicnovels.com
Organicpricedbooks.com

I agree that if you're looking for the latest information about omnibus editions regarding which ones are coming out then Near Mint Condition's YouTube channel is where you should go. That guy seems to have a direct line with Marvel and gets the news first.

If you're looking for a place to actually buy the books then any of the previously mentioned vendor sites should be fine.

Nope just wanted a place to get info. I already buy from the sites mentioned. Thanks gents!

There are only 5 issues left for me to finish Morrison's New X-Men Omnibus.

Spoiler

I came with big expectations but overall, it was too crazy for my taste. Shi'ar Empire people's designs were just so bad. Uncool has a new name and it is Shi'ar... lol Pantomex was poor guy's mutant Diabolic. Xorn turned out to be Magneto was ridiculous.

That was mostly Frank Quitely art wasn't it? He's one of those artists that his art looks pretty good sometimes but other times it looks pretty bad.

Yeah, a big portion of the Omnibus have Frank Quitely's art. I like Frank Quitely's art, some people critisize how he draws faces. His character faces sometimes look disfigured like how Frank Miller draws character faces, like they had a very bad beating or something... lol but i like that style, it has its charm. Not every art has to be realistic.

Marc Silvestri started to draw at where i am on the Omnibus btw. I love Marc Silvestri's art. (:

I like Frank Quitely's art too. His quirky faces appeal to me.

Fantomex is one of my favorite X-Men. I think that's in part because I still don't fully understand his origin or powers, ha-ha.

The ending you thought was ridiculous was later retconned for obvious reasons.
