Are these good starting points - First time buying Epic Collections –

I’m mainly an omnibus collector, but since a lot of the omnis I want are out of print, I’m thinking of picking up some Epic Collections instead.

These are the ones I’m looking at:

Wolverine – The Four Sisters
Amazing Spider-Man – Big Time
Daredevil – The Devil in Cell-Block D
New Avengers – Assembled

Are these good entry points for each series, or am I jumping into the middle of major ongoing storylines?

Also, if I start with these, will I be missing any important stories that were collected in the omnibus line but not covered here? I’m okay with references to older events, but I’d rather not be completely lost.

I’d love to hear your thoughts before I pull the trigger. Thanks!

What are the chances of a reprint for this omnibus?

I’ve been wanting to pick up the Black Cat by Jed MacKay Omnibus, but it’s become pretty hard to find at a reasonable price.

Has Marvel ever hinted at a reprint, or do you think it’s likely to get one in the next few years?

I’m trying to decide whether to wait or just pay aftermarket prices. What do you all think?

How well has this run aged?

I’m interested in picking up the New Avengers by Bendis omnibuses and have a few questions:

- Is the story actually that good?
- How’s the artwork throughout the run?
- Is the omnibus mapping solid, or are there important gaps/tie-ins?
- Since Vol. 1 is out of print, can I start with Vol. 2, or would I be completely lost?

Would love to hear your thoughts from those who’ve read the run.

Best DC Omnibus with a Complete Story and Amazing Art?

I’m trying to decide between Blackest Night Omnibus and DCeased Omnibus.

I’m looking for the one with the better complete story, amazing artwork, and overall reading experience. If you’ve read both, which would you recommend and why? TIA

Bookswagon Switching to Shadowfax – Anyone Else Facing Delivery Delays?

Bookswagon switching from Blue Dart to Shadowfax has been disappointing so far. My order has been stuck in transit for days and is already past the expected delivery date. Tracking updates are vague, and Shadowfax seems to have a reputation for delays. Is anyone else facing the same issue?

Batman Vol. 2 vs Venomnibus by Cates vs Doctor Strange by Jed MacKay

Trying to decide which omnibus to buy next and wanted some opinions from people who’ve read these.

I already own Batman by Scott Snyder & Greg Capullo Omnibus Vol. 1 and really enjoyed it, so Vol. 2 is tempting. But I’ve also heard a lot of great things about Venom by Donny Cates and Doctor Strange by Jed MacKay.

I’m mainly looking for:
- the most enjoyable overall read
- best art/story combination

I have a refund issue with an Amazon.in order and Amazon support mentioned Amazon Pay Balance as a possible refund method.

My question is: can I receive the refund to Amazon Pay Balance without setting up/activating Amazon Pay Wallet or doing KYC?

From what I understand, Amazon Pay Balance includes both Wallet and Gifts & Credits, so I’m confused whether a wallet is actually required just to receive a refund.

Has anyone here received refunds to Amazon Pay Balance without creating an Amazon Pay Wallet account?

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some omnibus/compendiums suggestions. I don’t necessarily want to start from the very beginning/origin stories — I’d prefer well-written runs that are just great reads on their own.

Characters/teams I like:

Miles Morales / Spider-Verse stuff

Spider-Man

Avengers

Moon Knight

Doctor Strange

Nightwing

Green Arrow

Catwoman

Raven

I’m open to both Marvel and DC. I prefer strong storytelling over just big event books, but I’m okay with events if they’re really good.

I’d love more recommendations especially underrated or must-have omnibuses that don’t require tons of prior reading.

Thanks!
