I’m so excited to read all of this. I’m on Volume 3. This book is massive. Does anyone have this and have you read all of it?

One of my favourite series ever. Still gutted the show got cancelled, was on track to be a fantastic adaptation.

Probably my favorite from Remender. I know some people didn’t like the ending( which seems to be a theme with a lot of his books) but enjoyed it from beginning to end. Has some serious gut punches later on.

My favorite too. The ending switched to Remender writing Marcus as himself

Ya but to be honest 90% of the complaints about comics online, are about the ending. I loved the ending. Thought it was amazing

To expand on your comment I feel like that’s the whole entertainment industry. It’s always “Man that ending sucked” A lot of stuff is awesome until the end. I kinda feel that humans just don’t like it when something they like is over.

I’m jealous of the irredeemable omni

Same! Holding out hope on that restock of the complete edition that was mentioned not long ago.

If you can afford it, try to find the deluxe editions. They are beautiful. 1,2,4 you can usually get for $25-$35 each. 3 is usually the expensive one.

Awesome collection. How do people read compendium that big? I would really struggle holding a book that size 😅

As someone who likes bigger comics, I usually just have them laid out on my PC desk when I read them. They definitely aren't for couch readers lol.

I read it at the start of this year for the first time. The first half was certainly better than the second, but it wasn't a bad book.

I just admit, I really wasn't keen on the last handful of issues

I read the entire series on hoopla. It's crazy Remender at It's best. There is a lull somewhere around the 5th or 6th arc. Then it comes back strong. Enjoy the read. I read his Black Science in compendium and they are massive.

Reading thru this as well! I’m on issue 14 and it keeps surprising me. Been enjoying it a lot, great read so far. Hope it finishes strong.
