Marvel Omnibus Blowout on Amazon.com

Comics fans, here’s an opportunity you don’t want to pass up. Right now, there’s a sale on Amazon for Marvel Omnibus editions for $8.24 and $14.99. If you’re not familiar with these, a Marvel Omnibus is a hardcover collection of seminal runs of comics, in color, often with the original letter pages intact. These typically run between $60 to $100 online, so I don’t expect these to stay in stock for long.

Thanks to GuardianDevil and canonball on the Fwoosh for the heads up!

In 2010, it’s Mike Deodato Jr. on the main line. I happened upon some of the original, uncolored art for the cards and wanted to share it with you here.

Q: What’s Better Than Storing Your Action Figures in Big Plastic Tubs? v2

A: Actually having space to display them! 🙂

A few months ago I wrote about having to dismantle my “toy room” because we had decided to put in new carpet, and then about getting to put together a new and improved display. This past weekend, I put the finishing touches on some upgrades.
