In deed. I think we need a new term. Something that focuses on the positive side of EOC peer pressure. Beer Pressured? Still negative from certain views. What do you guys think? Can we come up wit the next Regina? Bean |

Just curious, what other Marvel omnibuses (published or solicited) are recolored, as well? That seems to be the main selling point for me, personally.

For classic material in published omnibus form that has modern colouring I believe the Simonson Thor is the only one. There has been some one shots that were released of classic material that have modern colouring with a new story as a framing sequence. In the Immortal Iron First Omnibus there's Marvel Premiere #15,16. You would have to look outside of the omnibus to find more such as Thor: Tales of Asgard by Lee/Kirby that was a 300 pages hardcover. |

Moments ago my Simonson Thor Omnibus just arrived in pristine condition! That's the most air bags I've seen in a box in some time. Definitely one my biggest omniboo. It can go toe to toe with the Amazing Spider-Man. I noticed the Omnibus logo was centred instead of being stretched across the red at the top of the spine. The hammer is funny/cool on the spine without the dust jacket. Now I just have to decide how to work this into my regina. Before or after Usagi Yojimbo?  |

Before or after Usagi Yojimbo? i've decided that i'm going to finish my current pile (not too huge), and then dive right into this where i left off in issues. so i guess the question is... are you attempting to read ALL of usagi? or just a few volumes? |

If I put it on the bottom of the pile because it's so big I probably won't see it for a year. So I think that's out of the question  I could skip to where the first trade left off since that's all I ever read. It would be the Usagi Special Edition HC. |

I hired Norwegian virgins ladies to carry it for me, then lay about naked as the book rests on their asses while I read it. Makes me feel very Norse and god like. I run into problems when I try to put them back in the dust jackets though Travis |
