If you're like me, you've suddenly realized reading 15 to 30 comic books a week took up a lot of your downtime. With no new comics coming out for at least a few weeks (thanks to Diamond Comics Distributors halting shipments), now's the time to take your pull-list dough and drop it on a collected edition. Barnes and Noble as well as Amazon are great venues, but this is also a solid chance to support your local book stores and comic ships. Still, where should you spread your $40 to $120 dollars typically spent on new single issues every week? Here are my top 10 purchases of new or soon-to-be-released absolute or omnibus editions to ensure you have the latest and greatest for your reading pleasure.
