Looks like they are doing the same thing what they were doing with Transformers, regarding the HC releases.

I've often wondered why this hadn't been done before now. It says 300 pages. I wonder how many issues that's gonna cover. I was buying the TPB up until about #10 but it was getting a little too expensive for me.
DrKain says
How is that the Complete Collection if it is only 300 pages and only 1 volumes? This is stupid, hardcovers should be released first. Well, I'm not rebuying the graphic novels just to have hardcovers, especially at that price.
Derek2783 says
Now, they'll re-release them, better, in hardcovers to ensure a second round of purchasing.
It's not stupid, it's good business sense.
Personally, I own all the TPBs. I'll be rebuying everything in hardcover and selling off the TPBs.
Dr.Kain, that is just Volume 1 of the complete collection, not the complete collection in one book. That's why it has Volume 1 on the name.
Black Rose says
I'll probably be picking this up considering I've been putting off the trades for so long. The hardbacks will look awesome between my Snake Eyes & Storm Shadow book ends.
spiderpumpkin says
That figures. I just bought TPB 14 on Saturday.

So, I guess the hardback volumes will have more issues in them than the TPB - 240 pages vs 300. At least that might mean less than 15 hardback volumes - maybe they will get it down to 10?
RolandofGilead says
So ten volumes at $33 a pop? Still I kinda want them.

Cool, now I can go back and start buying the TPB's again. I stopped after the third one but have seen some great prices on them on Amazon and ebay lately.
