Echo Trades and compilations

[vicar]

Hey y'all! Sorry if this has been covered already, but....

Do we know if Echo is gonna' be collected in a larger edition? I hate to buy these little TPBs if there's just going to be a larger, nicer edition coming down the pike. They're rather expensive for rather small volumes!

Hi vicar! Long time no see.

You've got an interesting question there. I don't know the answer, but I think it's not impossible he'll turn the entire story into a two-part book or something.

I'm quite sure I heard Terry saying (in a ComicGeekSpeak-podcast ?) that he plans to publish Echo as a hardcover omnibus-edition like SiP when the whole series is finished. But that won't stop me from buying the floppies and eventually the omnibus

Hmmm. Well poo, I'm still not sure what to do. I actually find that the monthly issues are too short to enjoy, so I try to wait 2-3 months so I can get a chunk all at once. Sooner or later, I'm sure that they'll be collected, but I don't wanna' wait 5 years!

I prefer reading them in book form too, but then I'm terribly impatient and don't think I could wait for the whole thing to come out before finding what happens next. So, yeah...comics first, THEN I'll probably re-read the whole series when it comes out in graphic novel form.

I tend to get the comic, and then the trade book, and eventually when it comes into a larger volume I will get it that way too. I like having it in book form, but I dont' want to wait 3 months for the tradebook to come out. I too like to keep up with the story as it happens and then I go back and reread it in the collection trade books.

I wish I could afford the omnibus of SIP.

Welcome to the forum Echo_Wolf!

You're not the only one who operates that way. I know there are several forum members who did the same with Strangers in Paradise.
As far as I know Terry himself sold out on the Omnibus, but they are still available. Too bad you can't afford it. Maybe some day?

Terry Moore on Twitter :

There will be an Echo Omninbus at SDCC2011. But TPBs will stay in print. @neftones any plans for a larger Echo collection

[Echo_Wolf]

Yea the Omnibus guess won't be too big for Echo just wonder what "extras" might be in it.

I did see a copy of the SIP one on ebay for like 300!

I do hope to get my hands on the ECHO one. now that I am more in the loop for this comic i can stay on top of it
