For the next 29 days to celebrate Comic-Con, StoryBundle is presenting:
The Dynamite Comic-Con Omnibus Bundle, chock full of, you guessed it, Dynamite comics that mostly carry on from stuff that was previously offered in other Dynamite comics bundles, ahahaha…
To be fair, this time, there really do seem to be full story-arc continuations of series that we only got a few issues of previously, and a few new collections of stuff that doesn't seem to have appeared before.
At the pay-what-you-want level ($5 minimum), you get 7 collections of a minimum 11 issues each:
- Jungle Girl Omnibus of Season 1 & 2 (Frank Cho, entire thing was in the Dynamite 10th Anniversary HB)
- Project Superpowers Chapter Two #0-12 (Alex Ross et al., not from previous bundles which had Chapter One instead, IIRC)
- Vampirella Vol. 1 #1-12 (maybe some issues in previous bundles)
- Red Sonja Omnibus Vol. 2 (Michael Avon Oeming, issues #19-34 of the series)
- Zorro Vol. 1 #1-12 (#1-6 were in a previous HB)
- Miss Fury #1-11 (I liked the collection of the 1st 5-issue story arc that was in one of the Dynamite Humble Bundles)
- The Twilight Zone #1-12 (I liked the 1st 4-issue story arc that was also a previous HB, so I'm interested in seeing where these go)
At the $15 top tier level, you get an additional 8 collections:
- Mercy Thompson: Cry Wolf #1-8 & Homecoming #1-4 (others in series previously bundled, but these story-arcs seem new)
- Dean Koontz's Frankenstein Prodigal Son Vol. 1 & 2 issues #1-5 each (V1 was in a previous HB)
- Jim Dresden's Butcher Files: Welcome to the Jungle #1-4 & Full Moon Vol. 1 (some previous in this franchise in bundles, these particular story arcs seem new)
- Blood Queen #1-6, Annual, vs. Dracula #1-4 (looks new)
- Damsels #1-13 (Leah Moore, daughter of Alan, definitely new)
- Black Bat Omnibus (definitely new)
- Dark Shadows #1-9 (#1-6 seem to have been in previous HB, if "Year One" is the same thing)
- Sherlock Holmes: Trial of Sherlock #1-5 & Moriarty Lives #1-5 (Leah Moore, ToS was in a previous bundle, but not the Moriarty book)
It seems like there's actually relatively little overlap with previous Dynamite bundles (at least from the Humble Bundles and the previous StoryBundle Ultimate Heroes thing; I skipped the Comixology one and never saw that Groupees thing), and some good new stuff in it with complete story-arcs in it, so this is a definite top-tier purchase for me once I get my replacement credit card (for something I only use on a handful of very limited trusted websites and Paypal for the untrusted ones, my Amazon Visa card seems to fall prey to random fraud charges at places I've never even heard of on a depressingly semi-regular basis).
Enjoy! |
I hate this about myself, but I think I've bought each one of the many Dynamite bundles. At the release of each one, they have had enough new content to be worthwhile, but I imagine at this point I should have waited for a few of the larger ones.
One of the comic regulars at GOG has been maintaining an awesome google docs spreadsheet of all the bundles and their contents.

Now I just need to remember to download all these bundles and read them!
