My Hickman Fantastic Four Omnibus, vol. 1 also arrived today. (: I hope i will be able to dive in to it soon.

I believe this omnibus includes X-Men #1-21, but #12-15 written by Hickman are missing because they are collected in the X of Swords hardcover. And then there's the initial House of X / Powers of X comics by Hickman also collected separately.

This seems like dirty tactic by Marvel to sell the hardcovers to people who buy the omnibus. I believe they will collect those hardcovers in an omnibus calling it vol. 2 or companion or something. I will wait.

I hope Marvel won't make an extended edition of the vol. 1 and add the hardcovers in there. Then i will be incredibly pissed. I don't have anyone here to sell my omnibuses to get advenced addition. I hate it when they do it. I'm looking at you DC, god damn Death and Return of Superman, The New Teen Titans and Supersons Extended edition Omnibuses... ---- you DC.

Just be aware, this omnibus doesn't have the new material by Gaiman to finish out his original run. If you are only interested in the Moore stuff, then you are good.

Captain Britain omnibus for sale at Instocktrades for $65. Both covers. Good deal on a 1360 page omnibus, don't know how long that will last. Just snagged the "modern" costume cover.

I have not read mine yet but to I have looked through it and the Alan Davis artwork is simply stunning. Would love to see some portfolios or prints of his artwork done

That's the "expanded" version right? I'm curious if the extra stuff is worth it. I have the original omnibus with the "classic" costume.

You could also buy the two old oversized hardcovers that collect what's expanded in the new edition and have it all, as the new Omni is actually missing Captain America #305 and #306, included in the original.

I ordered Fantastic Four by Hickman Omnibus, vol. 2 today. (:

I passed on War of The Realms Omnibus. I didn't get Aaron Thor as well anyway. I need to cut from somewhere so i cut from comics. I got in to Star Trek 1/6 dolls line besides statues. I need money for that.

Good to know, but yeah, I'm only interested in the Moore stuff.
