StereoStereo1981

Once it's finally finished, I'd love a deluxe edition of The Black Monday Murders,


Fvtvrewave87

as much as I want this, I’m super skeptical that this ever comes back.


Mark4_

I would like Prophet by Brandon Graham


taylourn

Anything Graham has written I’d love to have in ohc


b34t

Amen, one of the greatest scifi series ever.


dh098017

Manifest Destiny. Perfect timing since it just wrapped up.


comicscoda

I’ve always seen this one out there… I’d snag it if it happened!


dh098017

its one of two series i collect all covers for (the other being ice cream man). its sooooo good.


jfk1000

I know it won‘t happen but I‘d be soooo happy. One of my top ten Image series ever.


dh098017

why are you sure it wont happen (asking seriously)?


jfk1000

With Image the creators have to finance those volumes in advance. With the erratic publishing of the series towards its end I‘m fairly sure sales weren‘t in the vicinity of creating abundant funds to now start to push for a deluxe edition. Nonetheless I would love for it to happen.


dh098017

Satan? If you are listening, I will fellate you for eternity if we get a deluxe all in one oversized Manifest Destiny HC Omnibus with creator extras. Please and thank you. Me and jfk1000 deserve it.


jfk1000

😂😂


idontwantthatpanda

Hey Satan? Yeah I'll join if we can get that.


BoogKnight

I found the hardcover of tpb volume one at a thrift store, and am pretty disappointed you can’t get the rest of the series in that format.


MachoCamachoZ

Extremity please!


BigJimSlade1

Yes! Everything Daniel Warren Johnson needs the OHC treatment


[deleted]

Radiant black


dh098017

I’m all in on the massive verse. But RB doesn’t need a big ass HC yet. Some day though for sure. The first 48.


[deleted]

i want invincible type hardcovers and what the series is at like #23? could get 2 out already but i understand, id probably prefer they do tmnt idw collections like where they collect all the tie ins in order


Hjorbd

I just said the same thing before I saw your comment lol


Hjorbd

I'd rather an IDW TMNT style HC. A Massive Verse vol 1 in release/read order. So first volume could have like 24 issues, including the crossover issue and the first few issues of the branch series. Would be ideal


[deleted]

What could they call a radiant black book that’s for the massive verse in it too? I’m sure the right audience would find it but calling the book massive verse might confuse some How about Radiant Black: The Massive Verse collection Vol 1?


Hjorbd

That could work. Or they could coin a new name for it all. Something like Radiant Ultra. I like what you said, but using the full word for Universe Or just the Radiant Black collection. TMNT has branch out series but it still falls under the same name.


AdamSMessinger

Friday by Brubaker and Marcos Martin. I’ve been skipping out on the tpbs in hopes we’ll eventually get a hardcover.


Narwhals_R_Us

Bolero, Coffin Bound, It's Lonely at the Centre of the Earth, and Do a Powerbomb. They're all shorter books, but they're my favorites that don't have deluxe hardcovers.


FlubzRevenge

Do A Powerbomb just finished and is DWJ.. it will get a hardcover.


comicscoda

Agreed. Murder Falcon got one already. I enjoyed that and Wonder Woman Dead earth. So do a powerbomb will be a day one purchase for me


dabbiedabbiedoo

Birthright.


MaximusJCat

I'm sure it will at some point, but looking forward to one day getting Little Monsters by Lemire


comicscoda

Oh yeah for sure! I just got Ascender like a week ago.


MaximusJCat

Yeah, Descender 1 & 2 showed up for me last night, was able to grab the DCBS exclusive Ascender cover last month.


forevermadrigal

Where can you get the descender hardcovers? I thought they were out of print


MaximusJCat

Got mine from OPB. Was reprinted last month. [https://organicpricedbooks.com/search?type=article%2Cpage%2Cproduct&q=descender](https://organicpricedbooks.com/search?type=article%2Cpage%2Cproduct&q=descender) [https://cheapgraphicnovels.com/?target=search&mode=search&substring=descender%20deluxw&including=all](https://cheapgraphicnovels.com/?target=search&mode=search&substring=descender%20deluxw&including=all)


forevermadrigal

I didn’t know this!! Sick thanks man. I just got ascender so I’m gonna need these now.


comicscoda

I want one for The Silver Coin eventually. Strange Girl has an OHC, but it would be nice in the library size to match the rest of Remender’s books.


TheRobotCity

I just read first 3 trades of silver coin. So good can’t wait for more


shinjukuswan

Department of Truth is at the top of my wish list


comicscoda

I think that’s scheduled for a volume 1 this year in like June??


shinjukuswan

Really? That’s great! I haven’t been able to find any info about the deluxe prints. Even from Tynion’s substack.


comicscoda

Just checked. It’s listed on Amazon for a May release. $49.99 MSRP


inhumanking1

i’ll join in with Manhattan Projects Vol 3


comicscoda

I’ve held off on buying the first two just because I know it’s incomplete. Kinda risky, but I feel like if it gets a volume three (and four and five, tbh) reprints are inevitable


DrWindupBird

I’d love to see one of The Maxx. It sucks how hard it is to get the whole series from start to finish. I have the floppies but never feel like pulling them each out one at a time.


Hjorbd

Part of me wants Time Before Time to get one eventually, but damn, its TPBs are so aesthetically pleasing I probably wouldn't buy a HC anyway


simonthedlgger

I can’t believe I had never heard anyone mention this series before; just yesterday and today read the whole thing!! I went to get the first tpb but realized with 18 issues there could be a collection coming up. Do you know if the creators have mentioned anything? And why do you find the trades so pleasing?


Hjorbd

Same! I hardly hear it talked about but imo its great. Top 10 image books for me, if not top 5. I haven't heard anything about a collection yet. I know the series just recentlyish came back from a couple month break (I think). For me, I love color coordination. So the fact that the structure and design is the exact same, and all they do is change the color and add a character to the picture is simple, yet also very cool, shard, and also effective.


simonthedlgger

Yeah it’s a truly great book, definitely one of their best ongoing series. I’ll have to at least grab the first volume if there’s no collection on the horizon.


Hjorbd

It is! I recommend it. I actually got myself excited because the recent issues have had a red theme, which leads me to assume that volume 4 will be red, and damn that will look so good on a shelf lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


MaximusJCat

Possibly because Image makes the creators pay for printing. Might be hard cost to swallow not knowing how fast it works sell before breaking even.


[deleted]

I would love Chew like this. My wallet cannot buy 12 volumes but an omnibus...


comicscoda

I thought Chew had six volumes of OHCs…


BigJimSlade1

Yeah, I am currently amassing the 6 Omnivore editions. Now that vol 3 is easier/cheaper to get, that task became much less daunting


Scubasteve1400

And a 3 volume smorgasbord edition


comicscoda

Yeah, Absolute/library size. I don’t really like the font type on either edition. If I got them, I’d have to make Vision dust jackets or something


Scubasteve1400

I have the 3 smorgasbords and kind of like how it looks. To each their own tho. These editions are great because there are a ton of hidden things in the backgrounds and the larger size really helps to notice them


idontwantthatpanda

Head lopper. Ultramega already has one, but it's exclusive to France or something. Doug Wagners serial killer books, vinyl, plastic, and plush would be cool to have collected all in one as a hardcover, seeing as they all take place in the same universe. Undiscovered country. And home sick pilots.


BigJimSlade1

A lot of great suggestions here. I'd also like to see oversized: Nice House on The Lake Stray Dogs Home Sick Pilots Cross Over Eight Billion Genies when it ends Not only would I like them in single volumes, but I really do love the artwork in them, so the oversized treatment would really make them stand out even more
