I hope I get this for Christmas

Hey 👋🏻 how long did it take for your omnibus to come in? I just ordered 1 Thursday and paid for shipping
@Chasefolsom99 for a new release it should take about 3 to 4 days. If you order a new release and add in older books they may need time to order those older books or find them in the warehouse and it could take a couple weeks.
@@rickysrockinreviews I ordered the Gwenpool omnibus. You think that should take 3 to 4 days? I should get an update tomorrow because that would be 48 hours excluding weekends
@@Chasefolsom99 that's a 2022 release. I don't know if it has been reprinted. I'd say a week is a safe bet.
@@rickysrockinreviewsI will have to wait and see of course. Thank you sir have a great day 🫡
I enjoyed this video. I don't see anything I would want either.
@@TSMiller981 thanks for watching! I'm looking to get more videos posted soon
Good review! I own a physical copy of the book, personally. But do you know where I could possibly read it online? I want to share some of the text with my friend without having to take pictures of the pages. Thank you in advance.
@knuckt.k.9456 hey thanks for watching and for your feedback! I love this book! And movie. I'm not too sure. Do you know which section in particular?
@@rickysrockinreviews Hmmm. I think I might've found it. I love the book and film also, a lot. Thank you for your response!
Just found instocktrades, significantly cheaper than what I've been paying on CGN. Hoping the shipping quality is good:)
@@hippycollector9306 my man! It is the best packaging you can ask for. That's why I am always confident in buying from them. I have always had a great experience
The price of magic is from the same run as Zelma. The Aaron run introduces them both. Moreover, the meteor is basically a time-displaced Sentry send back in time by the Watcher after Zombie Peter Parker and his New Avengers, put a stop the the zombies once and for all about 40 years after the start of the virus which creates a parodox/ time-lock keeping the events of Marvel Zombies contained and unable to affect the rest of the multiverse. Look up Earth-2149 for more.
Wow there is a lot to the story I did not know about!
Great job on this tag my friend... Or should I say working man. Lol that made me laugh. Thanks for the shout out as well... I'm currently enjoying an ice coffee myself as I watched your video... Weird huh? 😂
@@FacelessBookReviews coffee makes the world go round. I love it so much. Nothing pairs better with a book! Thanks for stopping by. And I hope you get to enjoy a pleasant rain one of these days 🌧
I love biographies and memoirs. And like you, I really enjoy musical ones by my favorite artists, such as Elton John, Johnny Cash, Led Zeppelin and so on. I have Louis L'Amour's memoir and I enjoyed that. Also, I like Historical ones of popular Men and women from American History. What a Great, but kind of wet, Video Ricky! Keep on Rockin' -James & Bella!
@Littlebiglibrary that's awesome! I would say you have great taste then. That's why I'm subscribed to you! ;) thanks for watching 👀 🙏
@@rickysrockinreviews. I appreciate you Mr. Ricky
I read the Original Frankenstein years ago. This book sounds like an interesting read. Another solid Rockin' Review! -James
@Littlebiglibrary thank you James! I think it would make a great film too.
I bet with that new baby you wish that you could have someone create you so that you don't have to sleep as much. Lol I will say this book is somewhat interesting. If the whole book reads like the part you read from though sounds too wordy. But maybe it was just that one area that they were using all that descriptive text. I don't know you did a good job of peaking my interest. We will see. Can't wait to hear what you think of Dracula. I love that book, especially the way they did it. It's all like entries. So yeah I can't wait to see what you think on that one. Anyway, good video. Thank you!
@@FacelessBookReviews hey Faceless! Thanks so much for your detailed comment. And no, it moves at a quick pace with plenty of good dialogue and character interactions. I chose that section because it is understandable out of context. And I happen to love when an author can create such descriptive and alluring passages. Yes! I am close to getting to Draccyyy, I am ecstatic to finally start it
@@rickysrockinreviews Well if the whole book isn't that wordy this might be a good read then... Sounds cool for sure.
Plenty in your library there to keep you occupied. Best wishes and happy reading to you from Lancashire, England.
@@ReadingIDEAS.-uz9xk hey thank you! I really appreciate it, and thanks for watching!
Science at whatever the cost….sounds interesting! Nice review.
@kevintowle9665 it's a scary premise but with a lot of heart!
When your parents name you Wilhelm Von Franken , you have to be a bad guy.
@@HideAndRead lmao 🤣 can't argue with that hahaha
If I had to pick something I guess the French cushions would be okay but I'm betting that they are way overpriced! At least it was an entertaining article to pass the time with.
@@Littlebiglibrary thanks for watching James! Yeah all I need is my coffee and I'm good!
So far all this stuff looks ridiculous. I haven't seen one thing I would waste my money on. Lol I'll keep watching. Yep not one thing. 😂
Haha yeah unnecessary to say the least. Thanks for watching !!!
Always excting to get a set like this. Not my thing but these look pretty cool... Chunckers for sure.
This sounds amazing.
@@FacelessBookReviews I have the full review on my channel! It's a great read for sure. Super entertaining
@@rickysrockinreviews Is it older? I didn't see it as your latest so I'm watching that one now
@@FacelessBookReviews yeah you gotta go back a bit!
@@rickysrockinreviews is it spoiler free?
@@FacelessBookReviews yes all my reviews are. I should specify that I my next video
Thanks Ricky... I really appreciate this... I also really enjoy your channel as well... These other channels are great and I second your take... Have a great day.
Excellent selections!
@@thewestisthebest thank you, sir!
What a Gentleman!
I discovered your channel through this video. Happy Reading! 😎📚👍
Thanks so much for watching! Hope to have more cool videos out soon
I just bought the book. Can’t wait to dive right in.
Oh man, I think you are going to really enjoy it. Reading the novelization, then watching the movie is a fun experience. Thanks for watching! I am planning to review more superhero related books and novelizations
Thanks Ricky
Thanks Ricky!
I apologize Ricky for not watching this video earlier. I saw it in my news feed and but didn't realize it was you. Not that long ago I was an avid gamer. And I watched a lot of gaming videos. I saw the Astro Boy thumbnail and was thinking it was Mega Man. So I just passed it by. Then I saw your name and I did a Face Palm . That is a nice collection you got there. Congratulations. -James
Haha no problem James! Funny enough I also love me some Mega Man!!!!! Thanks for watching!
As a Astro Boy fan you got a steal
Right on! I think so too. Thanks for watchin!
Cool. Not a manga lover but looks cool! 😎
It's new for me too. This and Speedracer are the only ones I have
I have this book top stuff really great
It's my favorite novelization I think!!!
Thats a bargain. I like the older manga style a lot. More black fill, heavier, round lines and soft cartoonish features. Looks like you got a lot of reading to do! Enjoy.
I agree. Thin lines these days make everything feel weightless. Thanks for watching!
The testament by Grisham is solid! Love that book. Intensity by Koontz is good! I agree, Patterson has a team of writers! Awesome haul. We should do a LOTR read along/buddy read. Love that Ed McBain book, hard case crime is where it’s at! Awesome video!
Thanks, Kevin! I'm down. Are you interested in reading the hobbit first?
You found some really nice books. That copy of Moby Dick looks really nice. I haven't read anything by Dean Koontz but they looked good too. Good job!
Thank you, James! Your videos inspire me to do more haul uploads! Always fun to talk about our loot! - Ricky
And indeed, it was a beautiful copy. Only 10 dollars!
Yeah, it's fun to do and to watch.
I buy any hard case crime books I can find. Need to start reading them though😅
Dude. Same! Those covers 😍 love those lovely ladies. And the noir stories can't be beat.
Nice little Book haul... I recently downloaded Moby Dick from Project Gutenberg onto my Kindle. So I'm looking forward to reading that at some point. I feel like that might be a winter read.
Hey, no way! So did I! I recently put a bunch of the free books that are public domain onto my Kindle, too! Just the other night. Even though I prefer physical books, it is still a great way tool for quick reference or to help me sleep. Winter sounds good! Maybe we can buddy read if we line it up?
@@rickysrockinreviews yeah I'd be down to do a buddy read on that... We can move it closer to fall if you want? I don't need to read it in winter...just felt like a winter read for me. Let me know when it might work for you and I can make it work. Also I did the same thing I downloaded about 35 classics... I used to be physically only but actually prefer my kindle... Lately most of my reads have been physically tho...ok rant over.
@FacelessBookReviews cool I'll hit you up when I have the urge to read it! I'm not the fastest reader and I have a newborn, so I will be easy to keep up with I'm sure.
Sounds good ... I'm not very fast either...so it should go well. Congratulations on the newborn! 🎉🎉
where did you buy?
Ebay. I have a video coming out soon where I look at all of them
Pluck enough slime out of the unknown….love that!
Who gets to decide what is Horror and what is not Horror? What is Horror to me may be suspense to you. I agree 100% about diving down to the bottom of the Lake and grabbing mushy nasty creepy mud! Great review Ricky, I enjoyed it. -James
Thank you, James :) and then there is horror in Español (Las Casa Negra!)
Black House! Yes!
I second James thought... I'm not diving down and grabbing anything. Awesome that it creeped you out. 😂
Jae: I remember touching the bottom of a lake with my foot and just doing that creeped me out to where I will not swim in a lake
@@Littlebiglibrary I have my 1.5 acre pond and I will not swim in it and touch the bottom unless I have water shoes on... It is so soft and slimy... clay bottom... nasty.. lol
Nice! I read his Buddha series, and enjoyed it. Happy Reading!
I should be posting a video on these soon
@@rickysrockinreviews the translations were awful, But loved the artwork
The store used to be for readers, I dont get that feeling anymore. Its a giant gift shop, the employees wont talk about books but spend lots of time informing me about their cafe... I used to be a member for the large sales they once had online. Alas... I still go in and buy a stack of books about once a year.
It still has an icky commercial feeling. But maybe it's because I'm so used to buying books secondhand.
Cool review, book seems very out there but interesting.
Thanks for watching, Kev!
Yikes! I think my man parts and I will pass on this one. Lol ouch... Glad to see you come out with a new video...
Thanks for watching anyways!!! Hopefully, this inspires some more thrillers for you to read or at least some Shakespeare!
@@rickysrockinreviews Actually what is interesting is that some of my highest rated books are thrillers and yet I don't read many of them. It's clearly a genre I enjoy so not sure why I don't read more of them. This one just sounded a bit too much for me... 😂 I did think you did a great job on the video tho.
@FacelessBookReviews thanks so much Mr. Faceless 🎭
Was a decision made of who is more dangerous between Men and Women? I haven't read a horror story this year. I'm trying to learn to read Spanish so I can read my Stephen King novel, Casa Negra. So far I have learn to count to three in Spanish but..I still can't read Spanish? Great Review Sen'or Ricardo!
You have to read to find out, but it shows the two sides equally. Although the first cruel acts of someone always beget the vengeance of another. Best of luck on the Casa Negra!
I just came to see if it's true that the fight between Hulk vs. the dogs is more gruesome, is it ?
Hey! I went back and looked through the book for you. That chapter in particular is called Dogs of War and it kicks-off Part 3 of the book called Superego. The sequence is ten pages long and described just as brutal as the film. The biggest difference is the amount of suspense that leads up to the fight. Feels like reading horror. The dogs also have more of a haunting presence in the rising action before the showdown in the woods, i.e. the scenes with Bruce's father as he slowly wedges himself back into his life.
How do you sleep at night? First Frankenstein's Monster and now Creepy Mermaids. The story sounds really good especially with the Ocean being aware that Man abandoned it. Sounds like some pretty desperate situations going on. Good review and if I ever actually come across it I will pick it up. See you at the next review. -James
Thanks, James. You crack me up! I like the thrill of a horror novel or said thriller haha. If I should find it one day in physical format I would be a lucky guy! It's one I would like to own, not just on my Kindle!
Nice review Ricky. I enjoyed it. But I didn't enjoy that deep voice you did, it scared me! I need to do a re-read now. And I am currently watching the movie "Frankenstein" starring Donald Sutherland. It actually starts off with Donald Sutherland as a Captain if a shop that is frozen in the Artic ice. The sailors see The Creation on a dog sled and behind him is Victor Frankenstein. Victor falls off his sled and is rescued by the sailors. He tells his story while he is laid up in the Captains quarters. It's really a good film. You can find it for free on UA-cam. And, (high excited voice) Thank you for sharing. I look forward to more! (Real High Voice) -James
I love this comment, James! I should have tried my best creature voice, but I didn't want to end up stumbling the eloquent lines! What a disservice to Mary Shelley that would be! That sounds awesome. I've never heard of it before. Thanks for letting me know! I really like Donald Sutherland and Willliam Hurt. I will check it out! -Ricky
just got reccmonded this video! really love your passion!
Wow, thanks so much! I have a bunch of other reviews on the channel and a ton coming very soon. I review all kinds of books and comics, so there is bound to be something for everyone here. Thanks for saying that!
@@rickysrockinreviews can't wait to see what you got cooking!
Just put this in my watch later queue. Can’t wait! Go Ricky!
Awesome! It's one the long side but there is lots to say!!!
@@rickysrockinreviews awesome in depth take on a classic! Good video man!
@kevintowle9665 thanks for watching, Kevin!!!
