Pretty quick.

That sucks. You might be able to buy it through some online retailers, but I doubt you want to pay the cost of the issue just for shipping alone.

On a side note, read anything good lately?

I am just gonna probably end up buying all my stuff online. Probably once a month. I don't like it, but meh. Whatever. I've cut back my singles purchases by like 75%. So, I am pretty much just buying my favorites series's singles now.

On Book #10 of Y: The Last Man (the last one). Just finished 'What Ever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?' by Alan Moore. About to read 'What Ever Happened to the Caped Crusader?' by Neil Gaiman.

Dammit. I told myself I wasn't gonna cry at the end of 'Y: The Last Man'. Sigh. Brian K. Vaughan, you brilliant bastard...

Y: The Last Man is only available in tpb right? I really would like to get an omnibus or at least a collection of volumes if possible.

Weeew. Good thing you reminded me you didn't ever finish it. I almost started discussing major spoilers. A LOT OF SHIT goes down in those last 3 trades. And yes, I believe there is no omnibus yet. I would just buy the last 3 if you still have the first 7. Totally worth it. And that Neil Gaiman Batman book. Holy shit. The Alan Moore was "ok". But, man that Gaiman book was siiiick. I didn't even know he wrote a Batman story before I picked this up. So good.

Time to move forward with my other "need to reads". Just ordered Sandman 3-6 TPB. Ex Machina #1, and JLA #1 (Grant Morrison).

LOL, I find it semi-amusing that looking at this long list of trades to buy, there is but like 3 Marvel trades total, excluding the Age of Apocalypse Saga. In my mind, Marvel is like the basic cable of comic books. Every now and then, they put something out decent. But, for the most part... I'll be watching HBO. LOL.
