It's well past time to catch-up on this blog with What I've been buying, reading and watching.
First up are two Marvel Omnibus volumes the second of which is very close to the perfect book for me.
The Savage Sword of Conan Omnibus Vol 1 is a companion to Conan the Barbarian Omnibus I
bought early on this year. It's another big book, full of stories that I've never read and a real interesting purchase for me.
John Buscema's art also looks fantastic in black and white.
By the way, I've read about half of the CtB omni. It's good but a little bit "samey" when reading one issue right after another and so after 13-14 issues I felt I needed a little break before resuming.
The second omnibus is Amazing Spider-man volume 4. This is just perfect.
The issues reprinted include my
first ever Spider-man purchased story and so many other Bronze-Age classics which captured my imagination and made me a Spidey fan for life.
So even though I've all the originals of these issues (except for #129 1st Punisher) I just felt I had to get this and I absolutely love going through it. I guess it will help keep my originals in better condition.
