Title: BEHOLD: Upcoming Marvel Omnibus Silver Surfer, FF vol 2 Post by: Michel Weisnor on February 06, 2007, 11:00:45 AM I was over at marvelmasterworks.com and stumbled across Marvel Omnibus editions. These are oversized Marvel Masterworks with added material. Believe it or not, Marvel's going to re-publish the original Silver Surfer series as well as Fantastic Four Vol 2 with all the Galactus goodness you can read.

For me, the draw would be that Spider-Man volume, collecting every Ditko Spidey story in one book. Since that's all the Spidey I care about, it's perfect for me.
Trouble is, I've already got all that in those little paperbacks from the 70s, the recent Essentials and now as free inserts in my local newspaper (!). So it's kind of hard to justify the price tag. Especially since early Marvel art reproduces much more poorly than DC material from the same period. They must've lost all their original film or something.
