The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

I bought mine then too, but lost them to the sands of time (actually to my mom throwing them out). In any event I want a complete TP collection of GI Joe comics so I'm buying this even though there's only a small amount of original content!

Hey, I'm not the first guy to buy something multiple times around here!

I bought the Yearbooks back then too but don't remember anything about them other than the awesome covers.

Actually, no I'm thinking of the Order of Battle handbooks. :oops:

I hope they collect the Order of Battle mini. I completely missed that! Is it like the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe?

Also, I loved the Michael Golden covers that would occasionally appear on GI Joe comics, including the first annual. The coloring was ahead of its time...

Best. Cover. Ever!

I'm beginning to think Order of Battle might be collected in the last volume of the trades. They added the original GI Joe/Transformers mini in the last solicited one,

After that its only 10 more issues/1 more trade then the series is done. Perfect time to include the bios.

I saw that. I have the IDW trades of the Marvel Transformers run too so this really will complete the collection!

How are you getting a list of books that ship?

No notice for me though there is a book in my "next shipment" indicator. They'll probably ship it at the end of the month though. Since I don't get Previews, it's not like they were holding my shipment until this week.

My notice came last night.

Singular? I got multiple e-mails last month, one for each order I was receiving items from plus a the normal one with the UPS tracking info.

No notice for me yet, but ever since they switched to the new system my BOC has been shipped 2-3 days later than it used to be. :-(

I go to the DCBS website and see what they've marked in my "Items in this shipment" section.

I"m assuming same kind of setup you have at MOC.

DCBS'ers should get their shipping notices soon. I got mine! I will be getting a single book because that's how I roll in this lean times but at least I'm still getting something!

LOL if the invoice says the package still weighs six pounds even though its only one book I would laugh hysterically.
