I thought it was out in TPB?
Cei-U! I summon the confusion?

Amazon lists a HC, not a TPB. Lone Star lists only a HC (out of stock) as well.
Not that those necessarily rule out a TPB, but that's what I'm going by.

I've read all of Kirby's Fourth World saga, but I've still yet to read The Demon, Kamandi or OMAC. For those of you who have the other Omnibus' featuring these characters (I have all the Fourth World stuff) are they of the same reprint quality? (Suffice to say, the Fourth World collections are my favorite reproductions of all-time.) The new Kamandi reprint is great. It contains the first 20 issues.
I also own the older Kamandi Archive edition, which is excellent, but only reprints the first ten.

What's wonderful about the Kirby omnibus' that I have is that they smell like old comics. I think they might even have retained some of Kirby's cigar smoke in them...

Of what I've actually seen to date: Mister Miracle, Jimmy Olsen, & OMAC.

Checked eBay just now on a whim & found a copy of the Losers HC for $21 & free shipping, so couldn't resist pulling the trigger.
I blame Cei-U! (which of course is nothing new for me).
Now, no doubt, a TPB priced as a $5 loss leader will be showing up at any moment.

I went with the Fourth World Omnibus' in TPB format. I just prefer that if I have the option; dusk jackets and hard covers look pretty on the shelf, but they're annoying to handle and read. TPB's are like big fat good old comics to me...just a bit fancier and more highfalutin.

...I have a feeling, though, that once I've read them, Kirby's Losers will jump to the front of the line. I feel the same if I read more of The Demon, but in the meantime, I'm going with Kamandi.

Got to go with Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen, just for issues #133 and #134 alone. Classics.

Challengers of the Unknown would edge out Jimmy Olsen for the top spot. The only other substantial work I've read is the Super Powers mini series. I'd like to read some more Golden Age Guardian and Newsboy Legion stories.

Or possibly New Gods. Yes, New Gods it is.

I'm glad I started this thread. I forgot how many titles Kirby worked on at DC. Many of them were some of my favorites as a teenager.
