As excuses go, that's a pretty good one! Better than anything jwb has used.

For about $60ish on Amazon you can grab the New Teen Titans Omnibus Volume 2 which includes the four parts of the Judas Contract. IIRC that Omnibus had a misprint and skipped an issue in the 30's but will include still the JC.

So I've told most of the office this joke. The oddest thing is how many people were disappointed by the punchline because it means I didn't send a little dude flying. Also there are way too many people I work with who think this was a true story.

I am finding myself uninspired to build a team for tonight's 300 pt Marvel Only game.

I'm leaning towards the Man-Thing Assault Team.

Does the Omnibus have storyline stuff the TPB does not? What would be the advantage of getting the Omnibus?

It has more issues, is heavy thus difficult to read and is expensive.

The Judus Contract is around 4 issues long. So you're paying $8 an issue at $35 for the trade.

For $60ish, the second Omnibus goes from around #21 to #44 and includes the needed annuals. So your cost per page is way down.

Which has better resale value?

I have no idea.

Bud's resale > CL's resale

I'll take it! NO. DO NOT EDIT THIS BY ADDING WHAT I'D TAKE!!!>:-|

That's unexpected. Especially given the fact that my back cover is still in mint condition.

You thread killing defects bring the price down.
