    Omar says my favorite words: "All of these books are still in print"!

    I believe there will be one more library edition collecting:
    • Signal to Noise
    • The Last Temptation
    • Violent Cases
    • Chivalry
    Considering Chivalry doesn't even come out till December 2021, it's probably going to be a while before the next library edition comes along. American Gods is getting its own huge (700 page!) library edition in September. I assume the same is going to be true of Norse Mythology too at some point in the future.

    Thanks for this video. As a Gaiman fan from Sandman and his novels, I really appreciate the look into his other non-Big 2 comic collections.

    Neil Gaiman usually knocks out great work and the art looks great. Thanks for posting, didn't know these existed. Also, Uncanny Omar, thanks for the content, makes work go by faster.

    Literally just finished a haul vid with volume one in and I talked about how synchronicity was involved in finding it and how I’d never heard of it, then as soon as I’m done you do a video on it! Great video as always!

    I believe that it’s Michael Zulli, although the font on one of those pages in the video looks like the second “L” and the “I” visually combine to look like a “U”.
    Ironically, there is a bit of a legend that comic publishers in the old days would avoid using the word FLICK for the same reason.

    Ahhhh man these are so tempting after this vid. Just being Library Editions themselves is good enough already, but they’re actually good adaptations, eh? I didn’t like American Gods so I’m hesitant but I just might have to buy these.. Maybe! Great vid, Omar. :) Algorithm gang!

    Do you know if these aren't available everywhere in the book market? In Europe the only place I can find these is through Amazon. When I search their ISBN #'s nothing pop ups within the normal websites I buy from.

      Kallax by IKEA is very popular among the comic book community for holding omni's and library sized edition books.

      Kallax shelves won’t bend or warp though you cannot adjust the height of each compartment.

    It’s unlikely that there will be a volume 4 simply because there’s nothing more to collect. Apart from these three, Gaiman wrote for Dark Horse comic adaptations of American Gods and Norse Mythology, which have their own volumes.

    I just don't like the covers. So minor, considering the great content, but they actively put me off. So stupid as it'll spend 99% sandwiched between other books or open, cover down.
