Couldn't miss out on this one!!!! Major regrets for not buyin' Kill or Be Killed, Fatale book one, Descender book two, and the first three Lazarus hardcovers. Please convince Image to reprint more HC's, Omar. Pretty please.
I loved this series so much that I went and got the Green Arrow OHC by Lemire and Sorrentino, mostly because of Andrea’s phenomenal art. For that alone i am likely to upgrade from tpb to OHC. I love how the art is used to create a sense of disorientation and confusion. The colors and arrangement invoke a slight feeling of dread for something unseen, but insidious. This is my favorite horror comic of the past couple of years. If you like this, i’d recommend “A Walk Through Hell” by Garth Ennis.
@@NearMintCondition :-) more and more people seem to be interested in book specifications, finishes and how they're made so thought I'd mention it! Spot gloss lamination is a nice one, fairly simple but really effective if the design is nice.
@@pcprincipal9889 Yeah I see it everywhere now, on hardcovers and board games. Then there is embossing, debossing, gilt stamping, screen printing etcetc
@@brianjones8721 yep, there are loads of production techniques and creative ways of finishing covers. And that's on top of different printing processes, types and number of inks used, matte and metallic foils, varnishes and all kinds of different papers. There are lots of options to make things in print look amazing.
I have came across so many amazing recommendations from you guys and expanded the world of comics and Mangas.. I'm excited for Gideon Falls. Premises sounds intriguing.
Oh my gosh I love love LOVE this book. This is one of those that I have all the single issues and instantly preordered the hardcover. Lemire/Sorrentino books should be automatic buys, period. Speaking of. I STILL WANT MY OLD MAN LOGAN OMNI, MARVEL!!!
Hey Omar, I read issue 1 online, then pre-ordered this OHC as soon as I heard about it. Also, I stopped into one of local charity shops today and got a pristine copy of Deathnote volume 1 & 2 collection edition. $4! My first Manga as well, so I'm glad you're doing a horror round up soon :)
I came into this series completely blind and I must say it's a fantastic series with a unique premise the art is fantastic and the writing reminds me of my own style definitely will keep up with the series and hope it gets an adaptation
I am one of those with the misconception that this collected the whole series. It’s because instead of soliciting after the relevant trade volumes were released, the Deluxe HC solicit dropped just after the series had concluded. But whatevs. I’ll buy Lemire’s books any day of the week
One of my favorite horror comics that I never see anyone talk about is Wytches by Scott Snyder and Jock. Very cool book that I really hoped they would have made more continuations of, but still an excellent read.
I want this but Image comics kind of pissed me off. I collected 3 Morning Glories deluxe hardbacks, book 4 would've finished the set but it was never released. Why do that?
@@NearMintCondition Hey, I got a question. Is the series “Hillbilly”, apart of The Goon universe? Because when I read it, I was surprised to see Buzzard make an appearance.
@nearmintcondition Yess The DCBS variants looks gorgeous. Specially Book 1 for it looks horrifying with the front cover and book 2 variant cover looks trippy❤ I’d say DCBS vars are better looking.🎉
HELP!! Does anyone else's copy have a page order problem? My copy has like 15-20 pages from the back of the book printed in the front.. Also, any suggestions as to what/who I can contact to get a new copy? Or am I just screwed? I purchased it from Cheap Graphic Novels.
I love Gideon Falls but it is my only Image Book where i lose a lot of the art in the middle, because of bad binding and the paper is getting waves into it. Dunno, maybe it is just bad quality
@@LoneWolf-ky7cq I stretched the spine. I did everything you’re supposed to. It’s just a shoddily made book. But also, thicker books are just prone to droop and other issues unless you build a shoe for them. I’d sooner have more and thinner books that don’t need molly coddling-but not TPBs, because they too easily warp.
I actually prefer thinner deluxe hardcovers. With glossy paper, more than 400 pages tears too much at the spine when standing straight up. Also they become too heavy to read comfortably. About 300 pages is ideal. For the same reason I store all of my omnibuses horizontally.
Even though I really want this standing in my bookcase, I felt like the double splash pages really didn't translate well to a thicker format even with the TPBs. Glad you touched upon that towards the end, cause this series really employs those kind of splashes and unorthodox panel work etc a LOT. I'd say that's probably its best feat - the story is interesting enough but it felt rushed and anticlimactic towards the end to me. I haven't read the single issues, but I can imagine they do the artwork and storytelling style more justice. Honestly reading this digitally is probably the way to go in that respect. Kind of a shame, but I guess it can't be helped.
I've not enjoyed Lemire's writing, having read Black Hammer and Descender, finding them too slow and derivative. Your comments make me suspect that this may be the case with this title too, though I'd love to be proven wrong.
I love Jeff Lemire but this is one of the most disappointing stories I've read since I started collecting graphic novels. Completely messed up the ending, and it felt like the story never went anywhere. Lemire's Essex County, Underwater Welder, and Black Hammer are on a different planet to Gideon Falls.

Yeah, I'll second that.. There are lots of Image OHCs that I would purchase. And I know we're not alone.
Descender will be reprinted when Ascender deluxe comes out.
Another East of West OHC reprint would be nice! 😁
@@petermanda8314 Are you certain of that?
@@johnbeaker8721 It was mentioned by Lemire on his IG or something like that.
Poor Gideon. I hope he stands up again.
lol my man!
Oh my gosh.... Epic dad joke there.
Fantastic lol
I really like the approach image takes with their deluxe edition, keeping it simple and consistent.

Day one purchase for sure, can’t wait for volume 2 to finish the collection. Great overview as always brother 👌🏻🔥
that cover finish is called 'spot UV' or 'spot gloss'... just in case you're interested. Gloss lamination is put on top of matte to give that effect.
I am interested thank you. Spot UV or Spot Gloss. Got it.

I had to get this. I read the first tpb and loved it. Hearing that it gets better in volume 2 really has me looking forward to reading more.
I did end up liking the ending more.

Welcome aboard and I love this series.
Waiting for mine to arrive. I’ve never read any of this so I’m looking forward it. Great review as always Omar. Keep up the great work!

Nice 👍 love the Twin Peaks vibe it has 👍
I just got this a few weeks ago in paperbacks all 6 volumes and I loved it .A tv show would be awesome !
It's so good!

For October you can’t go wrong reading Clive Barker’s Tapping the Vein.
In the end we all collect trash, don't we? Great video as always.
One of my favorite horror comics that I never see anyone talk about is Wytches by Scott Snyder and Jock. Very cool book that I really hoped they would have made more continuations of, but still an excellent read.
Wytches is a nice one, but Severed from Snyder aswell, is superb in my opinion.
I want this but Image comics kind of pissed me off. I collected 3 Morning Glories deluxe hardbacks, book 4 would've finished the set but it was never released. Why do that?
Sex Criminals has dust jackets as well.
The one exception I’ll make to my abject hatred of dust jackets because with that series they’re part of the joke.
1 of the best horror comics produced by Image
I'm glad the decided to slip this series into two volumes as this is my ideal OHC thicknes!
Ahhhhh!!!! When is book 2?? I loved book one too much!!!
I wish they made this an all in one hardcover
thanks for the review!
Jeff Lemire's goodies.
I freaken LOVE this comic! You want a recommendation read Nameless ist 6 books of just crazy
Big fan of nameless and i cant wait for volume 2 of this story to wrap it up.
i might get this one. thanks
Hi Omar, I just ordered this after your overview lol, not read it before, I’m excited to have some horror, finally. Thanks my brother 😊
This just hit my must buy list. I have not read any of it but it looks great.
for some reason im drawn to the separate versions, idk why... it looks awesome, maybe the feeling of collecting it one by one? idk :P
Oh man…I’ve been looking at this series and now I’ve got to decide between this and the trades 🤔
It seems to be a mixed bag of opinion with this one. I've just ordered it so I'll give it a go since I'm a fan of both creators
Honestly, The Goon has to be my favorite horror comic
One of my top 13.
@@NearMintCondition Hey, I got a question. Is the series “Hillbilly”, apart of The Goon universe? Because when I read it, I was surprised to see Buzzard make an appearance.
Picked this up. Hope your video comes out first for such previews (think I saw 2 others). You do get many/most books earlier?
Going to get this , head lopper I want a deluxe of that book
Great video, I def want to get this book. Any word on Book Two coming out??
Not yet and thank you.
Really Awesome
I read it ⚡🔥⚡
Just got this in the mail...can't wait to read it
A "solid read", Uncanny Omar?! It's more than that! Thanks for the preview. I believe my copy is arriving tomorrow. Can't wait!
Some people would beg to differ. :)
Awesome! Mine is coming in today. Do we know when book 2 will be coming out?
Dang, my shipment has been in LA since 9/21. The anticipation is killing me lol!
plan to read it soon, apparently this was rated a horror comic so i'm noting it down
9:10 hate it when that happens...
Super comic😀👍
Hope this doesn’t sell out. Wanna pick this up at the same time as something is killing the children deluxe
I love the manga adaptions of hp Lovecraft's at the mountains of madness and other short stories.
This run definitely needs an all in one Compendium

Contact them. I think your copy might be a one off misprint. They may have to reach out to Image
Instant buy!! 🔥

I hate that they are doing two thinner volumes instead of one big bad boy like Postal or Wolf-man. Why Image, why? Oh, I get it. Money...
Given how my Kill or be Killed is falling to bits, I’m honestly all for slimmer volumes.
@@CraigGrannell maybe you didn't stretch the spine? or you should buy paperbacks which are not more expensive
