Announcing the 2024 Most-Wanted Marvel Omnibus Reprint Poll – LIVE on Near Mint Condition

by

Mark your calendars for tomorrow at 1pm ET US (7am NZT), when I’ll be joining Omar on Near Mint Condition for a very special show! It’s his first time broadcasting a live stream to kick off the start of the annual Near Mint Condition Most-Wanted Marvel Omnibus Reprint Poll!

Each year, Omar polls his viewers and the internet at large to choose the existing Marvel omnibuses that are most in-demand for a reprint. While this isn’t an official Marvel poll, last year 19 of the 20 books wound up being announced for reprint in the following 18 months! That’s a 95% success rate.

Tomorrow, Omar and I will be joined by Taylor Talks Comics to run down every Marvel omnibus that isn’t currently available at the distributor level to comic stores and book shops. Then, we’ll open the polling live for everyone to make their top picks.

Tune in to Near Mint Condition on YouTube live @ 1pm US ET tomorrow or watch our stream as a replay to hear all the announcements.

Want to see more of me on Near Mint Condition? I will also be Omar’s special guest the next two Thursdays to battle over evergreen choices and share new announcements.

Announcing Marvel May 2024 Collected Editions – LIVE on Near Mint Condition

by

Today I’m live with Near Mint Condition @ 1pm ET to announce Marvel’s May 2024 collected editions – including omnibuses, Masterworks, Epic Collections, and new trade paperbacks.

I’ll be on a panel with Omar of Near Mint Condition, Jess the Omnidog, & Ødfel to discuss every new release. And, per usually, I’ve read just about everything new from Marvel in this catalog, so I have plenty to say!

Tune in to Near Mint Condition on YouTube live @ 1pm ET today or watch our stream as a replay to hear all the announcements.

Want to see more of me on Near Mint Condition? I will be Omar’s special guest every Thursday in February, sharing new announcements, talking potential reprints, and battling over evergreen choices. Every time I get to hang out with Omar and our comic-loving friends brings a burst of pure joy into my life – I hope you enjoy the shows even a faction as much as I do.

Debating our Evergreen Marvel Omnibus List – LIVE on Near Mint Condition

by

Are you ready for a fight? Today, I’m live with Near Mint Condition @ 1pm to share my Evergreen Marvel Omnibus List – that means they should never go out of print! Omar of Near Mint Condition, Jess the Omnidog, Ødfel, Lars of Mad Norwegian Press, and more distinguished panelists will share their lists, too… and then we’ll fight to the death over our officially endorsed Evergreen Marvel Omnibus List.

Okay, maybe not to the death, but it’s gonna get ugly! I mean, we’ll all look great, but fighting for your favorites and mocking the choices of the competition is highly encouraged.

Will the gang mock one of my choices like they did last time on the Evergreen DC Trade Paperback List show with Hawkman? Will OmniDog and I come to blows while we struggle to find things we actually disagree about? Tune in to Near Mint Condition on YouTube find out!
