Jim, if you would please?

So, one of my favorite comics is the Thor Ragnarok story by Michael Avon Oeming & Andrea Divito. It's the perfect blend of the Kirby/Simonson history and the actual Norse mythology of the final days of Asgard. The story is epic practically on every page, and Divito's art is so friggin' epic it's beyond words at times. Unless the words are "OH SNAP". So I see in the order forms a new over sized HC will be available soon. Sweet! That can only be awesome on top of awesome! That's gonna.....look........wtf?
They merged it with the other Disassembled bullcrap?

"Collecting Thor issues #80 to 85, Iron Man #84 to 89, Captain America & The Falcon #5 to 7 and Captain America #29 to 32, written by Mike Avon Oeming, Mark Ricketts, John Jackson Miller, Robert Kirkman and Priest, pencilled By Andrea Divito, Tony Harris, Scott Kolins, Jorge Lucas, Scot Eaton and Joe Bennett features a cover by Steve Epting."


BAH!!!!!!!!

Ok, just a quick remembrance of all those other stories:
-The Iron Man was a waste of time
-The Captain America was Kirkman, which should make it better, but it was very forgettable.
-The Captain America & Falcon was, well, Captain America & Falcon. It wasn't bad, and I love Priest's writing, but I don't think there was a need to really, y'know, ever see this again.

And they want $50

Jim?

A SINGLE OVER SIZED HC FOR THE ONE GOOD STORY DURING THAT WHOLE DISASSEMBLED MESS. $24.99. IS THAT SO HARD?!?!!?!?

I shit you not, I could sell 20 copies easy right off the bat. A $50 book full of crap? Not so much.
