Take Home These Titanic Tomes

Build your comic collection with these huge hardcover volumes that collect classic comic book series every collector should have in their libraries.

Omnibus and deluxe editions have become one of comics’ most popular formats; huge hardcover volumes that collect between their covers large chunks of a comic book series or an entire series run. What makes a “Titanic Tome”? First and foremost, it’s the volume’s overall size. Whether a book stretches its format past the standard 7” x 10” or 8” x 11” sizes or pushes its page count into upper digits past 200 pages (you know, PREVIEWS territory, thank you very much!), one thing is abundantly clear for these hefty publications — size does matter!

And this time out, our Titanic Tomes double theme month not only brings us the best in HALLOWEEN-inspired stuff to stock up on in time for spooky season, we are once again celebrating these TITANIC TOMES, and we’ve got a nice cross-section of offerings to tempt you with here…
