Nothing like procrastinating with a Near Mint Condition video
I only read Amazing Adult Fantasy for the articles.
HAHAHAHAHA same.
AMAZING FANTASY!
The Two Words Everyone Across The Planet Started To Utter Since 2002.
And you know why! ;)
Yes!!!
As a kid I couldn’t stand Steve ditko artwork I couldn’t stand his art and would always dread his fill in issues on any title I read. As I got older I appreciated what he did more.
Same here!
Robert McCauley I didn’t like his art style 40 years ago and I don’t like it now.
That said, there are a couple of titles (Spider-man and Dr Strange) that I think his style fit very well.
...same here. Now i see them as art
I like the fact that they added more pages in this reprint than in the 1st printing.
Oh yeah.
That should be 50 dollars.
It is actually even less than that if you go to instocktrades
Udayan Mukherjee it’s $100 in Australia.
45 dollars for this book is the same that the golden age Batman omnibus vol.1 and it’s a lot bigger.
@@ReaperXC 82 in Peru.
Have the Monster omnibus and Suspense ones so 'most' (not all) of the works are covered in this volume (not all, I know but I am not a completist). Don Heck, definitely, comes to mind but then again, there should be an omnibus for him as well. Of course, the letters etc are missing from the Suspense / Monster
I hope we get a Heck omnibus.
Are the letters etc. missing from this one too? Sorry the hear about those. I saw the golden ages ones, Moon night. The New Mutants, and Power Pack do not also along with The Todd McFarlane spider man ones do not have them either.
@@williamstebbins7294 Omnibus books have the letters pages if there were letters pages, I don't think they had them for these issues, except for the last issue, so number 15. I wish they would have included a lot more material, it is quite a thin book overall but it still full of some amazing ditko work and others
OK, a while back a friend gave me his Marvel Essentials collection. I'm definitely more a DC guy, but this allowed a lot of Marvel in my home for the first time ever.
Fast forward a bit, I now have a son, my only child, who recently turned 3. I started talking with a few of my Marvel comics friends about some ideas I has for building around the the Essential titles I was given for my son when he's older, and all agreed I should get the three Kirby FF Omnibuses, and the two John Byrne FF collections. I was also given a heads-up to your CZcams channel by the one who's been into Marvel the longest, since the mid-60s, to help me in this new endeavour.
Well, a week ago I discovered the two Monsterbuses, and thought of adding them on the same shelf as the five FF tomes, but preceeding the Fantastic Four Omnis. Well, I'll now have to get this little guy and place him between Vol. 2 of the Monsterbuses, and Vol. 1 of the Kirby/Lee Omnibus ! Thanks for all you share, and keeping some of us educated in all this world of collected editions 'stuff' !
These old stories remind me of old 30's and 40's movies like Things to Come and A Matter of Life and Death
Also login issues; so I vote Monstress. I'll be caught up for once and hopefully be in the chat
My man!
I love this Marvel comics from their pre-superhero era.
There's a bootleg Professor X in one of these old time issues that mentally contacts a mutant (called as such) after discovering him to "join those like him."
Byrne actually brought Tad and the cult back in the Hidden Years.
Definite must buy. If the lcs has it it'll be 30% off. Woo woo!
Good catch there at 1:24. I hope to see the replay tonight on ESPN. #webgem
Been at the game for too long. :)
I requested a review for this and Lo behold Omar has obliged the next day itself!
I try, my brother.
@@NearMintCondition You are the Best brother
I was checking if there were letters pages like superhero ones from the silver age. Matye there were like the comics form the golden age which also did not have a letters page. I wonder the superhero comics were the first ones with a letters page. The guy doing the overview for The Amazing Spider Omnibus volume 4 said he likes when the letters pages are included. Now come to think of it. I thought at least this one would because it is about the whole series or run besides Spiderman. Iron man started in Tales of Suspense, so had to wait a few issues before the letters about Ironman. I saw in the Defenders Vol 1 even had a letter about their first appearance, so even issue 1 had a letter about them.
Devil Dinosaur omnibus could be reprinted with more material like eternals omnibus.
Nice work, Omar! I really need this HC in my collection.
Thank you sir.
Omar as always hardworking😉 Thanks brother for a great content😁
My pleasure!!
Yesss!!! ❤️
How can they honestly call not only this book or that Devil Dinosaur book an omni?? I thought it was ridiculous when the called the Matt fraction Hawkeye collection an omnibus??? THIS is when Marvel likes to act like DC in their thought thought process. These are omnibuses and brooks rewind as thicker are NOT omnibuses????? Like X-men books some are omnis and others aren’t??? Should be a certain amount of pages or issues included that officially classify the book as an OMNIBUS. Great vid Omar!!!!
“Stan lee wrote it then and Steve Ditko Penciled it, dropped some acid, penciled some more, he tripped out then penciled some more...........” ahhh old school marvel and Steve ditko what a strange cat lol
I'll be the 'well actually...' guy here, but an omnibus is a collection of work on the same subject or author. There's no mention of the thickness of it.
What's stupid from marvel is calling the Dugan GotG run an omnibus, but the follow up to that story, Infinity wars, is not an omnibus and is i think even thicker than GotG (unless my memory fails, i don't have them in front of me right now)
Omnibus means that the book is containing a complete series or the complete work of an artist or writer. Omnibus doesn't mean that it have to be 1000 pages. I know it's annoying because it's not so thick, but it answers the "How can they honestly call not only this book or that Devil Dinosaur book an omni??".
No one needs to be following DC's thought processes, as if they could.
Nice review Omar, had the omni since 2007 and the two Suspense omni’s from last year... nice to know that it’s obsolete now 😬 well, it’s a fine shelf filler next to the four Amazing Spider-man omni’s. Anyway, entertaining vid!
Well, it does have the stories from others that aren't Kirby or Ditko.
These are the videos I love
Thank you, sir.
Amazon UK has uncanny vol 4 as coming out march 2 I know book got pushed back but I thought that was still releasing in December
I believe that there were 2-3 Spider-Man tales in the can when Amazing Fantasy was cancelled. These tales became the core of Amazing Spider-Man 1-2. You can work this out by looking at the job numbers on the first page of each story. Nice review by the way.
Thanks for the info and the kind words.
Love your videos!
Thank you!
Ridiculous price for an omnibus of that size. Same with the Cates Cosmic omnibus.
You saw my Devil Dinosaur right? :)
Wow, Marvel really liked those blobby giant villains in the beginning, huh?
They have like 10 characters called "HULK" or "IT" or "COLOSSUS" in the early days.
Omar why do you upgrade if you already read the comics? Do you re-read them and have the same fun you did the first time?
If he's anything like me he'll collect the series in floppies/single-issues and then later, when the entire run of singles is worth a lot more, sell them off to collectors. A mint copy of New Mutants #98 regularly fetches more than $400, for example, and with that $400 you can buy the New Mutants Vol. 1 Omnibus and have $300 left over.
Others buy the single-issues and preserve them, as collectors, then buy the omnibus editions for regular reading. That way the single issues, which are eventually worth more money, retain their value. There are many reasons to buy collected/omnibus editions, these are just a couple of them.
@@Matthew.E.Kelly. Thank you, I see single issues differently now.
Mathew explained it perfectly.
@@Matthew.E.Kelly. i started collecting the Amazing Spiderman Omnibuses and once their caught up up to around #400 or so...ill sell my original issues from #185 and on. I actually enjoy the Omnibuses more than the single issues. I have comic boxes that havent even been opened in 10yrs
I'm assuming this is exactly the same content as the first printing?
Exactly.
Will this stuff be available in epic collections?
Probably not in Epics.
Hey Omar. Unrelated to this video but will the Ostrander Spectre run get more than the two trades that have been put up or maybe even omnis? I didn’t even know that they did 60+ issues until recently.
I hope one day. Because I love that series.
Nice overview! The title says Amazing Fantasy then Amazing Adult Fantasy. Is it really adult or can a child 11-14 read this as well?
My daughter who was 10 at the time read those issues.
@@NearMintCondition And now she is forever scarred for life :) Good to know, my son is 11 so will share the joy.
@@cndart there's a letter in one of the issues from a reader who feels embarrassed buying the book with that "Adult" in the title... They claim a lot of readers felt the same way and that's why they changed it to just Amazing Fantasy. And then... Plans changed to Amazing Spider Man
Omar do you recommend getting this if you were already planning on getting the Master of suspense and monster omnibus??
This has a couple of stories not in those, but man.....I'd almost say go the Masters of Suspense and Monster Omnibus route.
Near Mint Condition it’s really hard to pass on anything Steve Ditko or Jack Kirby did, when it comes to collected editions lol I heard you mention Dr. Droom, Have you read the Marvel Rarities Masterwork?? I can’t find anything on it other than written reviews
The spine looks s little tight.
It wasn't as bad as the flat spines.
cool but ill skip this one
