What exactly is in these new cosmic omnis? You have piqued my interest.

It could be the long rumored MUTANT UNIVERSE too.

I can. This is exactly the kind of thing that Marvel does.
Everything. They collected from Annihilation onwards and will end with the end of DnAs Run.
This thing starts in the middle of IvX so that would be kind weird, but we'll see.

Unfortunately, Annihilation released a couple of years ago and is now out of print and goes for $250+ on eBay.
May 20, 2014.
Annihilation was released 2014 and goes right now for 340 bucks...
Annihilation: Conqest is still avaiable.
Edit: Should be avaiable on Comixology, but who buys digital Omnibuses?

what better to unite our mutants than a dumb fight nobody wants or cares about with literally the worst logo in comics history.
Well I must say it's been a while since I've had my hopes dashed so quickly...I never did read War of Kings though so silver lining and all that. It's weird that Amazon lists the prelude as the last Omni to release.
Worse then Champions?

Sorry, evidence:
I want to see Black Bolt stomp Magneto, Moon Girl fight, and Jean get punched out by Ms. Marvel.
Champions offends me more. That one is just uninteresting.

Our newstands didn't have racks to support the "huge" size of american comic books on its tiny comic space. Yeah. Pretty lame reason but there it is lol. All chidrens books are at this size, Disney and our own Turma da Mônica.
Here's a image I got from google:
They were 13 x 21 cm in size.
At the time, there was no internet and things like that so must people assumed that they were like that. Only at the end of the 90s that we started to get properly sized comic books. There was also some weird stuff with continuity in the late 80s because a lot of books around here were very late. If I'm not mistaken, they changed some stuff from Secret Wars because of that.
Let me see if I can find an article about it
EDIT: God Damn, I hate CBR new style. Here is a web cache version: http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...ds-revealed-231/+&cd=2&hl=pt-BR&ct=clnk&gl=us
Pressures to release Secret Wars in Brazil led to some interesting editing in the Brazilian edition of Secret Wars.

Why do you read comics?
My big brother used to buy X-Men comics and I got into them through that, as well as the 90s cartoon.

I'd say they are actually pretty positive about books in general, they seem to like things.

Woah this is amazing, thanks for sharing
Oh, yeah forgot about that one. I actually didn't think that issue was that bad.
And I tend to see reviews and criticism as different animals. But Strip Panel Naked is excellent.
It's kind of refreshing, right?

That feel when the knock-off gets a book before the original.

They took me to the light. A beautiful lie.
Nah, I know what you mean man. I like to go to some sites and they go in depth and get critical, and you need that, or but it's nice to go somewhere sometimes and they seem to just about like everything. I mean, if I just read comics and wrote about them all day, I'd probably love em all t-
Wait.
Black Pather #4-5
These last couple issues have really re-invigorated my interest in this book. It's a bit of a slow burn at first, but is starting to pick up a little more, Coates' writing is also beginning to click with me more. He's really an amazing writer, and does a good job at incorporating politica/social issues without it feeling preachy. There's really no one in comics quite like him.
Star Wars #22
This was a great little self contained story about the Alliance capturing a Star Destroyer. I assume the stormtrooper squad we saw in #21 is gonna try to come take it back? The art wasn't quite as strong this issue but I continue to really enjoy this series.

Favorite ongoing
Squirrel Girl and Deadly Class. Also very early in both but I dig Snotgirl and The Fix too.
I'm also throwing in BPRD. I'm only at the very beginning of Hell on Earth but it's still ongoing and I'm sure it's still good. One of my favorites period.
Favorite Completed Runs
Doom Patrol, Hellboy, Power Girl: Power Trip, Miller's Daredevil, Batman Inc. I quite enjoy Love and Rockets too
For original graphic novels, I really like You Are Here, Megahex, and, still fresh in my mind but, King City too.
Favorite Artists
Mike Mignola, Amanda Conner, Paul Pope, Jaime Hernandez, David Aja, Annie Wu, Chris Samnee, Brandon Graham, Joelle Jones, Jack Kirby, Guy Davis, Duncan Fegredo... I could go on forever.
Favorite writers
Grant Morrison, Mike Mignola, John Arcudi, Rick Remender, and Matt Fraction. Also feeling Peter Milligan before he became bad a lot.

Yesssssss. It is so good man. I enjoyed Plague Of Frogs alot, but Hell On Earth is so freaking good, it blows it out the water. It just gets better and better. I'm one volume behind right now, but it's just awesome, the places it goes...wait til you get to the stuff with Harren on pencils. If you read Rumble, you'll see the genesis of it in there.

I'm surprised you'd list Remender among your favorite writers. I like Deadly Class and Uncanny X-Force a lot, but he's very inconsistent. Tokyo Ghost is probably his worst writing (beautiful comic, though), and Low, although entertaining has been going downhill, and the dialogue has never been strong. His dialogue in general isn't that good.

Follow him on Twitter as well. He does breakdowns of a page over a number of tweets. Really cool stuff.
Though, a number of artists have mentioned that he may think about the pages in more depth then they do. He thinks it's stuff that they do unconsciously.
