@@sudarshaniyer6201 Honestly only 2 people have Empyre on their pull list at my LCS. When only 2 people have the "big" Marvel event on their pull list, its not a good sign.
Hey Gem, I'm an old (53) comic book head and I love your channel. I live in Italy now. Covid news coming out of Texas recently has been worrying. I just wanted to send a shout out to you and Phie and hoping you and your family are all ok. Stay safe and keep the content coming. Peace and stay Minty Fresh ! ✌
i've been having a hell of a time getting my hands on that she-hulk omnibus. it was originally supposed to come out right around the time when they shut everything down because of covid, same with the new printing of the Wolverine omni. some of them must've been shipped before the full shut down, because there are copies on ebay, and amazon that are crazy expensive. they were gone in a blink on IST. hope more are on the way now that shipping schedules seem to be getting back on track. i really loved byrne's she-hulk and ff when i was a kid.
I think at least we may get another shot at the Wolverine reprint again in reviewing the IST listing dates. Comics are starting to get like concert tickets and sneakers nowadays it seems.
@@lilescothepoet get 'em while they're hot! it's pretty wild how the omni game has sort of replaced floppies in terms of collectability. the main cover She-Hulk omni is on IST right now for $72 ($91.50 on amazon), but i've been holding out for the variant cover that Gem has where she's breaking the 4th wall, that's a classic cover. i'm thinking i should just get what i can, while i can get it though lol. you can get the new printing of the Wolverine omni on amazon right now for $90, CheapGraphicNovels has it scheduled for a Sept. 1 release date @ $60. i've been tracking both on ebay hoping for a deal, but none to be had so far
Thank you for all that you do Gem and really appreciate that you see the value for the channel and for your subscribers of you picking up all these omnibuses. The Legion silver age stories are among the best - they are equal to the Lee/Kirby FF and the Lee/Ditko Spider-Man. In fact those three series are the top 3 of the silver age. Following those 3 you have silver age Green Lantern, silver age Avengers, etc
Not a big kylo ren fan but the 2015 Vader series and the current one is straight 🔥. I feel they are bringing a new side to Darth Vader that has never been seen before.
you have to be the busiest kat in the game... you work you’re a dad a husband and a Utube hustler and i’m in awe. you don’t here it enough... thank you 🙏🏽 khob khun krup
I’d say break the cycle on this dc omnis think of all the shelf space you’d gain it don’t matter that you wouldn’t own all omnibus it doesn’t matter just collect what you love and not let the hobby consume your consumerism
Great video as always! I will get the Kylo Ren book he's my favourite character from the new Star Wars trilogy and I just got the 9 movie Skywalker Saga dvd box set .The Kylo Ren book seems really interesting .
The Golden Age & Silver Age books are valuable as historic documents. They make you appreciate how much the art form has developed and see some of the stepping stones that helped in the evolution. I started reading in 1963 and by the time I graduated in the 1975 second generation writers like Roy Thomas , Cary Bates, Len Wein, Denny O`Neil, Steve Gerber, Don McGregor, Steve Englehart , Jim Starlin & Marv Wolfman made what came before look quaint. When I returned to mainstream comics in 1981 writers like Alan Moore, had pushed the art form even further, now writers who learned from him are taking it to undreamed of levels. What I`m saying is don`t throw out Tchaikovsky for the Beatles . Don`t throw away Louis Armstrong for Miles Davis. Appreciate what came before . There`s still greatness to it. So keep those omnis & appreciate the good in them.
Legion of Super-Heroes and Sensation She Hulk Omnibus by John Byrne are the best buys here. 90's Legions titles were the best. Paul Levitz did good. Too bad Bendis crapped on this title, too.
Why the hate for bendis? He was amazing on the Ultimate Spider-Man run. Well, at least until Peter Parker’s Death. But still. I heard he also dumped on Superman. Can you explain ? 😄
@@maxkernfeld7928 He is way past his prime, like, by 10 years. Destructions of everything established by the previous writers. No basic understanding of continuity. No understanding of any characters. Replacing long established characters with new one dimensional characters. Really long, poor; and cringe dialogues....the list is endless. The sales are indicative of the fact. DC is just blind to the fact.
definitely do a berserk vol 5 review,i started collecting all of these books and have all 5 so far thanks to your videos on them, waiting till november for vol 6 now keep up the good work @gemmintcollectibles
Was looking forward to this video. Thanks for the awesome review Gem. I ended up picking up all of the Berserk Deluxe editions this morning. I can not wait to dig into those. That She-hulk might be next on the list lol.
Transformers Phase 2 is basically two big story arcs with a bunch of mini series woven in. But it's done a lot better than phase 1 (in my opinion) and I was able to follow the story a lot better. And I noticed a little pause on that page before you closed the book (spoiler alert) 😂 keep up the good work Gem! Much love from Hawai'i
Sensational She Hulk omnibus DM cover is sick. Low stock went out quick still waiting on regular one to arrive. At least I have that issue the DM is based on so win-win in that sense.
Oh man ! While I was watching your Transformers review, it reminded me of the great Jae Lee run. The one where he mixed the Transformers and G.I. Joe's.
Personally, I really like a lot of the older books especially the silver and golden stuff. Bronze is ok. Some of the titles don't hold up so well especially when it comes to bronze but there is still fun to be had in the much older books. The golden age human torch is great. He has his own omnibus too which I picked up not too long ago. Recommended if you're looking to get into the stories in older books. Anyway, great video!
yea when i first started the channel there was one every week. Seems like the big 2 started publishing a lot of reprints and slowed down on new releases
I'm waiting for the hardcover of Kylo Ren, there was one for Phasma and Shattered EMpire and they were both movie comics in the same way this one is so hopefully we'll get on at some point.
Hell yeah, just picked up that Berserk yesterday...I love the weird looks I get every time I bring one to the register, like it's a satanic bible or some crap lol
Thanks for the vids! You got me back into the hobby! Do you have a recommendation on collecting runs of comics that have not or probably will not make their way to an omnibus? For example, I would love to track down all of Jason Aaron’s run on Thor and Dr. Strange. Thoughts?
Gem you got me interested in Beserk do I need to start at Volume 1? Or can I just jump in at Volume 5 with the background from the movie trilogy of the Golden Arch
Gem Mint Collectibles perfect thanks just ordered it off of cheapgraphicnovels.com thanks for all you do ordered my first omnibus too because of your channel appreciate you and all you do
I remember reading comic books with that blue "blimp" kid...no offense to anyone here...just can't remember his name...I was young then...a long, long time ago in a galaxy far away!
*Update* Marvel is back to comics every week*
Back to their old trope of releasing 10 tie-ins. Empyre is dead on arrival.
Was just going to say this
@@sudarshaniyer6201 Honestly only 2 people have Empyre on their pull list at my LCS. When only 2 people have the "big" Marvel event on their pull list, its not a good sign.
The John Byrne artwork really does it for the She-Hulk Omni....I've always loved his work....I remember those issues...she had a pretty cool run

Not a big kylo ren fan but the 2015 Vader series and the current one is straight 🔥. I feel they are bringing a new side to Darth Vader that has never been seen before.
Exactly today, local manga distributor, released first volume of Berserk in Czech translation (classic format). Already in my shelf :D
Great video again GEMINT. I love the plain black covers DC uses, I've got a few myself.

Love the intro, Gem. John Byrne's She Hulk? I will pick that one up. On the fence about that Sub Mariner one..
Hey Mint Man! Any chance you can do a video where you open a comic mystery box ($200-500)!? You would be so dope.
Also watch/read yu yu hakusho!
Sorry brother! Have a great week!
We need people to push DC into making some Catwoman omnibus. There's more then enough content. I mean she has been around just as long as batman.
Nice haul #supergirl
