The Real Ghostbusters Omnibus Volume 1!!
 
According to Amazon, IDW is planning to release a 354 page omni of the first 14 issues of Now Comics' superior RGB book! :eek: It's a paperback, and won't be available until Nov. 6th, but... it's currently just an SRP of $24.99!

^_^

EDIT: Barnes & Noble claims it'll be released on the 25th of October, witch I find more likely.

AWESOME! I've been hoping for something like this ever since we first found out IDW had got the license to GB! It's a good size too and cheap!

That's gotta be a pun.

man! might preorder it soon!

Awesome. I love the Real Ghostbusters. I wonder if these omnibi will have the Ghostbusters II adaptation. I always thought it was cool to see the movie depicted in RGB fashion.

TheCanadiandrome 06-04-2012 11:23 PM

Man that would be awesome! I used to have those comics and I'd love to have em again

I somehow doubt it'll be in an omnibus rather than a plain old TPB, but I wouldn't be too surprised either way.

are these any good? I know the cartoon was awesome but not sure how a comic would read. Anyone have a sample?

Brodie 06-08-2012 08:08 PM

I picked up quite a few of these IDW Omnibi, ones for 24, Angel, AVP, GI Joe, etc.

All are priced at 24.99, and are a bit smaller than normal comics, but they pack a ton in each volume. So, you lose height & width, but gain more pages--generally. Usually thicker volumes than most normal sized trades youd get.

I'll be stoked to get this one.

I'm a tad biased as Now's RGB series was what got me into comics in the first place, but I found it to be amazing. I even thought some of the stories rivaled the cartoon.

Delayed to Nov 13th NOW. :ohwell: All RGB-fans need to buy this.

TheCanadiandrome 10-28-2012 02:37 PM

oh i plan on it

Brodie 10-31-2012 10:16 PM

Preordered last night and was emailed to let me know the date was changed to the 6th.

LeoNerdo 11-03-2012 11:39 AM

Mine shipped from amazon last night. Guess I'll have it on Tuesday then!

gobo 11-05-2012 11:30 AM

Just got my RGB phonebook in the mail! Couldn't be happier! Even if it came without that slight crunch on the back cover! Cuz I'd probably just do that myself when I get around to reading it in the constant state of dizziness I'm still dealing with! ^_^

Were you as struck as I was by how small the book is? I don't mean page-wise, but the dimensions of the book. It's a great book anyways I just found it a bit odd. I was expecting it to be comparable to the Transformers Classics tpbs; I guess it was a cost saving measure?

Brodie 11-06-2012 04:44 PM

The books size is in line with the dimensions for all of IDWs Omnibi.

Mine had a dent in the binding.

raphfan85 11-19-2012 06:02 PM

this book is nice for people who missed the comics the first time around or wanna read them again. but as for myself, i have every issue of the rgb comics so i wont be picking it up.

Fugitoid Jones 12-31-2012 05:27 AM

Just checked on Amazon, and the omnibus is now selling, brand new, for $15! If you don't have it yet (like myself), now is the time to get it!
