Man this has me wanting to start Conquest!
Funny thing is the second movie may bring GoG back closer to where you want them.

IST still has Annihilation Conquest Omni for $68. But Midtown is showing out-of-stock.

My father is going on a business trip to a few movie studios and is paying for the tickets(he's staying for a few weeks more to travel to a few more cities). I'm mainly planning on grabbing the GotG omnibus if any shop has it.

I've thought about it but for my first real omnibus I want to hold it in my hands before buying it. I'll probably thus only get DnA!GotG in NYC and others later with Amazon etc.Amazon is no option?
They really make two Omnis out of War of the Kings

You're definitely going to pay more at physical retail than buying online. I understand wanting to see it before buying, though. Especially with Amazon's packaging standards.

Flash Rebirth is starting off and it's been decent, but avoid everything from the New 52 Flash

I know. I had a nasty experience with volume 1 of Journey Into Mystery last year that I ordered online from pretty much the only comic shop in Stockholm but luckily I could get a new one from them for free when I went into town.
Bleeding Cool: Swipe File on the newest issue of Uncanny Inhumans and W.I.T.C.H.
I said Annihilation. Conquest is easy to come by for less than 70.

Thanks. The best place to buy digitally Amazon/Comixology?

I liked the event, but I didn't think it was quite that popular. Unless some people remember it more fondly.

Flash by Geoff Johns and Flash by Morrison/Millar are excellent. I'd go for those.
The Morrison/Millar stuff is collected in a single volume physically and digitally. I think the Johns stuff is collected into volumes on Comixology too.

We talked about this when it was announced but it sounds like a nice set. Probably won't pick it up myself though.
Yes, those are the ones I was talking about. You actually picked a great time to get into Flash with these stories being collected into new trades lol. They're also releasing Mark Waid's run into new trades later this year which is supposed to be very good too.

Let's all ignore my garbage camera quality and check out how I filled my Planetary and Snyder Batman gaps in the same day for only $6 at a yard sale.
Six bucks? Nice sou da. Very nice.
I also got Identity Disc for .50 cents, it's interesting to see not-shit deadpool in the Way era but other than that I regret it.
I've never read Akira but I've wanted to. I'm definitely interested.
I like you for using that gif though
That's a really good price and I'm glad it comes with Akira Club. Really looking forward to picking it up next year.

I want it OG Guardians of the Galaxy!
This was such a strange random issue to read, but I enjoyed it. It was even stranger than the random Groot appearance REALLY early on in the reading order.

I said fuck it. You convinced me to go with IST for DnA!GotG instead(it's cheaper). My purchases in NYC will have to be smaller/lighter things like a Pokémon plush.

Power Man and Iron Fist #5
This reminds me of stuff like "Legends of the Dark Knight" from Batman: The Animated Series and such. I really liked it. Walker continuing to do god's work.
Uncanny X-Men #9
Is Lashley's art getting more and more cartoonish or is it just me? Anyways, the art continues to make this book more enjoyable, but I still have no idea what this Apoc storyline is going for and I have no interest in Monet and the Morlock shit. At least Mystique is refreshing. Lashley is keeping this book from being a complete bore. God save us when Land comes back.

Yes. Their sales on back issues are ridiculously good.
Good choice. I order all of my omnibuses, Absolutes and HC's from them and thats exactly where i got my GoTG omnibus from them. I've already read all the stories in it already through floppies or trades but it was really nice to have it all collected. There is just so much content in that thing its ridonculous. My only real complaint is the paper stock for Marvel omnibus are super thin and i'm really scared when handling them. I already have a rip in my AoA omnibus dust jacket just from taking it off the shelf. Just handle it with care and read it in a solid place like a table or desk. IST ships super well packed so don't worry about damage during shipping. My only other odd complaint is that they include Thanos Imperative in this while it comes after War of Kings making the reading order a little wonky.
Definitely try to get ahold of the Annihilation and Conquest Omnibuses now and while the whole War of Kings thing wasn't held in very high regards I enjoyed it all so I would suggest picking up that Omnibus when it comes out. I mean, it has freaking Darkhawk for crying out loud!!

Yeah, we should bug Marvel/Brevoort with our requests for reprinting Omnibuses! We could say it's because we are big MCU fans and not comic readers who just want to own physical books with our favorite arcs!

I was looking at those last night. Probably going to pick up all the issues of the current run. No clue about the backlog.

I remember hearing about the current Transformers crossover but I can't remember if it was supposed to be good or bad.
I ripped two pages overall with my usagi books which are worth hundreds, but my marvel books feel indestructible. One thing I learned is to take the dust jackets off when reading and carrying around the house. less likely to rip

Pretty good shirt, m8. Is it limited like an art print or something? Seems weird to post release dates for shirts.

Think it's only on sale for today

Scandalous.
Thanks thats good advice. I should just leave the dust jackets off period and store them somewhere safe. I have a habit of letting people use my collection like a library and while I don't usually have a problem with losing stuff i'm afraid of these omnibus not surviving as well as others have in the past.
