Omnibus Update

     First, the way the two Marvel Omnibus shelves currently look, including the two additions below. Still acting as partial placeholders are a few of the old Marvel Masterworks, bought from the first year of their release many years ago, waiting for the eventual Omnibus editions to come my way. A leap from the April 19th previous look, when it was maybe one and one third shelves. Fifteen volumes then, twenty five now.
     The Defenders and the second of the Lee/Kirby Fantastic Four editions have that poorly-decided, tiny spine lettering, which is unfortunate. I can only guess that someone thought it made them look... I don't know, more dignified? A minor issue in the sweep of things, but still, not a choice I'd have made.
     So many others pre-ordered, waiting (mostly) for their release dates which now stretch into March 2022, but here are the two most recently-arrived ones:    

     Fantastic Four Omnibus vol 2: Containing issues 31-60, and Annuals 2-4, and so so much of the peak from the Lee/Kirby team on this Silver Age Marvel flagship title.
     Mighty Thor Omnibus vol 3: Collecting issues 153-194. The last of the Lee/Kirby era Thor stories, then the transition to John Buscema, along with some Neal Adams.
     In each case I went with a cover by someone not otherwise part of the issue, since the standard edition covers are just slightly decluttered versions of one of the covers seen in the interior. Already have those inside, so why not go for someone else's interpretation on the cover?
