Uncanny X-Men by Brian Michael Bendis
by Brian Michael Bendis, Chris Bachalo and others
This Newsletter is basically becoming a X-Men Newsletter, isn't it? But Brian Michael Bendis’ entire Uncanny X-Men saga is being collected in one massive Omnibus, so we need to mention it.
In the fallout of Avengers vs. X-Men, the mutant world is broken, Professor X is gone, and Cyclops? He’s no longer playing by anyone’s rules.
With Emma Frost, Magneto, and Magik at his side, Scott Summers becomes the face of a controversial mutant revolution. Is he a visionary or a threat? Depends who you ask. One thing's clear: Bendis doesn’t play it safe — this is bold, uneasy territory for the X-Men,
What’s inside this Omni? A staggering 40+ issues!
Monstress Book Three
by Marjorie Liu, Sana Takeda and Rus Wooton
Finally: Monstress Book Three is in sight!
How could we not mention Monstress? Book One and Book Two were legit bestsellers in the Graphic Novels category for months! Even Scott Snyder said the first page stunned him, because in just one page, you get what this story is going to be about. That’s insane scriptwriting!
This is a story that goes big: high fantasy, a sprawling world, ancient gods and monsters, a brutal war, but it also has a raw, emotional core. It never loses sight of its characters’ inner lives. That’s what makes it special.
What we love most? It’s deep, dense, complex, and the art? Absolutely majestic. This new hardcover volume continues the story from issue #36 – #54 in more than 500 pages.
Vagabond Definitive Edition Vol. 3
by Takehiko Inoue
"He (Inoue) forgot that he is drawing manga". He added in accurate history, deep introspection, and jaw-dropping fight scenes. And out of that, Vagabond was born.
While the Vagabond Vizbigs Editions are known for their legendary spines that come together to form a stunning image, the 3-in-1 Definitive Edition is the format this artwork truly deserves. With its oversized hardcover design, every panel gets the space and respect Inoue’s art demands.
💎 My Hidden Gem 💎
Spider-Man No More?
Comics, movies, video games. There’s nothing Miles Morales can’t do.
When I was still at the FU, the JFK Institute library was the only way I could read tons of comics without spending money I didn’t have. I probably read everything they had.
That’s where I borrowed my first omnibus. They told me I was the only one who ever did, then threw the dust jacket in the bin before handing it over. I didn’t know collecting Omnis was such a big deal back then, but still, something about that felt deeply wrong.
Anyway, that was also when I picked up Miles Morales: Spider-Man by Brian Michael Bendis for the first time, without realising what I was getting into.
"His struggles, his family, his friendships, and his unique perspective on the world feel fresh and modern, yet he remains rooted in the core themes of Spider-Man. Miles doesn’t just inherit the mantle; he owns it in a way that feels entirely his own. It’s a perfect blend of legacy and innovation."
Now Miles Morales: Spider-Man Modern Era Epic Collection Vol. 2: Spider-Man No More collects everything up to issue 28, just like the Omnibus Vol. 1, but in a more reader-friendly size.
Pair it with Vol. 1: Hero in Training and you've got the perfect entry into Miles’ first solo adventure!
