That's good news. I thought this line might be dead in the water.

with no pic, isn't this just another pre-order on a long line of pre-orders?

We can at least say that the Shadowman HC Deluxe Edition went to production here recently, as stated in one of Dinesh's twitter comments. This, I can get more excited about.

The only outstanding HCs are Shadowman V2, 4001, and X-O V5 (which isn't schedulted until later this month). The big news here is that they are planning to continue the "Complete Omnibus" line. There hasn't been any hint that that was the case since the Archer & Armstrong Omnibus was released back in 2015 or so.

This is great. I hate being such a collector, as I have every old issue and then buying these hardcovers, I feel I have to have them, too. Still, will buy.

I hope that whoever is interested in this will go ahead and pre-order as that should help in ensuring it eventually comes out.

Hope this actually happens. I had all but decided VEI quietly ended their Omni line much like the Masters. We never did get that Eternal Warrior vol.1 Masters after all and the Shadowman Deluxe vol.2 has been sitting out there for at/over a year now with no explanation I'm aware of as to why.

I like the omnibus, but I would also like to see trade paper backs of other vh1 titles.

I would be happy if they for example, broke down the hard corps issues into like 4 trades.

I know it's impossible legally, but I would love to see trades of the Magnus / Rai and the future force Malv war storyline.

I got an email today from Amazon indicating they had canceled my pre-order for this. Anyone else get that? Is it no longer going to be released?

It's listed with a release date of 'TBD', not cancelled at this point.

This was the specific note:

Due to a lack of availability, we will not be able to obtain the following item(s) from your order:

Moretti, Mark "Ninjak: The Complete Classic Omnibus"

We've canceled the item(s) and apologize for the inconvenience. We must also apologize for the length of time it has taken us to reach this conclusion.

I know pre-orders have to count for something, if they don't get enough perhaps they hold off... but I wasn't pre-ordering because I knew IST would be cheaper than Amazon (missed that early low deal...or didn't commit to it soon enough). But man this is disappointing. I was really looking forward to a Ninjak Christmas.

Of course there could be other reasons for a delay...but I'm surprised amazon 'cancelled' so early. I preodered an eric powell book that has been delayed over a year and now read's March of next year...and my order wasn't ever cancelled.

According to Dinesh, there was a last minute potential addition that pushed it back to January.

I hope it goes back up for pre-order soon. I had a locked in price of around $66 before the cancellation.

This is again available for pre-order on Amazon (at $99.99 -- hopefully that will drop before the release date).

Just got a note from Amazon that I should expect this to arrive next Wednesday the 14th. Very glad this is finally on the way!

Me too!

I was getting close to cancelling and ordering from IST, but IST usually takes a little over a week to get to me (if they ship the next day). This is probably 2-3 days quicker.

I stuck with IST since they package far better than Amazon.
