Collected Edition Blog browsing on Independence Day
As I said the podcast for this week that I would be getting to a new round of links and happenings in the Collected Edition universe. I couldn’t find anything real significant that came out of Wizard World Chicago. Just some “maybes” to some books (Complete Hitman) and things we already know about (Hellboy/Batman/Starman included in the Starman Omnibus). Dynamite (not Devils Due) has acquired the rights to publish The Phantom. Hopefully we’ll see some more classic Phantom collections.
Have a safe and fun holiday weekend, on with the links:
