Anonymous asked: tom there werre 3 new warriors classic trades collecting up ti new warriors 17 then you did an omnibus that reprinted the same contents of those 3 trades but now with 9 extra issues taking it to 26 and no plans to paperback those 9. marvel have been doing this a lot it happened with west coast avengers too and i'm wondering what you think of this? it seems really harsh on people who were buying the trades to then expect them to pay 100 for mostly the same content but this time with a bit more.
I don’t expect anybody to do any such thing. All we can do is publish books in the formats that are successful for us, and then it’s down to you as a consumer to decide whether or not you want to spend your money and your time there. But we’re not and cannot be under any obligation to publish material in every format imaginable, especially if the sales on that format are not sufficient to sustain it. believe me, we would love to be able to sell every story in a dozen different formats, but that’s just not how it works—and so we have to select those formats that are working for us in every instance.
