I’m sure they do already, but have any Wolverine ones been done?

I have Wolverine vol 1 & 2, Wolverine and the X-Men, Wolverine goes to Hell, Weapon X: The Return, and the Weapon X Gallery edition (oversized).
Looks like all but Vol 1 is still available on Amazon. Vol 3 will be out in December

Collect omnibus only when you have decided you won't be moving houses any more. What a hassle they are to move and keep in near mint condition. Due to the size and weight, it's not a simple thing putting a bunch into a box and lifting it elsewhere.

I finally bought a Marvel Gallery Edition. The Venom one with McFarlane art. Not bad, but it feels like a half measure. They should've put it into an King-Size/XXL version like they did with Jim Lee, Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko art.

I worry about moving. I've kept them all in the shrink wrap pretty much, mainly because I figure it's the best protection until I actually have time to read them, but I suppose it'll be good for later if I change houses and need to transport them.

Use one roll of bubble wrap for each one and transport them on a flat-bed truck individually:D

IDW publishes books they call Artist Editions which reproduce comic art in 1:1 scale. Typically these books are around 13.25” x 19.25” in size. IDW went all out for the Todd McFarlane Artist Edition released last week, however. It tips the scale and also measures a whopping 13.38” x 24.25” for basically the same price as a normal version.

Here are some comparison pics to another Artist Edition from IDW and a typical Omnibus:

Yep, the TM Artist Edition is ever so slightly wider, but the height's the same as all those monster-sized editions:

I got this one too. It's massive! I also got the omnibuses of McFarlane's run on Amazing Spider-man and his adjectiveless Spiderman. Funnily enough as soon as I ordered them I got a good deal of original ASMs in fairly average condition from issues 304-328 (so missed out on the pricey 298-301 issues) from eBay.

I also sent a few comics to CGC for the McFarlane signing so have a few Spider-man #1s with his signature that I need to sell at some stage.

I’ve recently seen that there is a Wolverine vs Predator coming out next month. Does anybody know more to this? Is it a hardcover book or a running of comics? Appreciate your time:)

It’s a cool idea and one fans have thought about for years but never thought it would happen. I imagine there will be several crossover between Marvel characters and 20th Century Fox ones in the future.

There were a few Predator x DC Comics and Predator X Top Cow Universe in the past.

I loved Top Cow comics. I’ve been out of the game for a while though. Loved The Darkness…

With all this talk recently about AI taking over, I don't mind it for comics. I just recently found out that bots wrote a Batman story years ago, and it's pretty genius. Some of the gems:

He's described as sometimes Bruce Wayne and sometimes Batman, but all times orphan.
Alfred is Batman's loyal batler.
Joker deflects attacks with his awesome sense of humour.
Joker gives him a coupon for new parents, but the coupon's expired.

I'd buy that comic.

It's definitely entertaining. Although the voiceover/commentary of the video is a bit annoying. LOL

Mic levels! Why is audio clipping so prevalent these days.
