Speaking of hardcovers David, any chances of KABUKI having oversized collections thanks to MARVEL/ICON as Bendis! and Oeming! have with the original POWERS series*?

Theoretical examples: KABUKI VOL. 1 HC collecting Circle of Blood and Dreams, KABUKI VOL. 2 HC collecting Skin Deep and Metamorphosis, and finally KABUKI VOL. 3 HC continuing the storyline and the world of KABUKI with Masks of the Noh and Scarab.

On a serendipitous level, we would have three volumes each of POWERS and KABUKI in their original series, giving even more credence to MOB.


*I'm referring to the following gem of a collection, arriving June 8th:
POWERS VOL. 1 HC
Written by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS
Art & Cover by MICHAEL AVON OEMING
You asked for it, and now here it is: THE FIRST-EVER POWERS HARDCOVER! But not only is it a hardcover...it's a hardcover collection of the entire first year of POWERS in chronological order! The first three epic POWERS stories, issues #1-11, are presented in order of publication for the very first time -remastered, redesigned and reformatted! Plus all the POWERS bonus features you've come to know and love: sketchwork, scripts, interviews, galleries, original designs and a POWERS collection first - a Best of the Letter Column, Year One! This is where the story begins! A must-have for your comic library!

The way you grouped the harcovers makes sense. What 2 you chose for each over size volume.
But since there are already hardcovers of each of the six volumes, would people still want this?
I can't tell if it is redundant or not.
Or if this is what readers would want.

Everyone is welcome to weigh in on this.

Thanks MG.
I'm planning for the big Art Book for later this year.

I got your e-mail.
I've just been overwhelmed with keeping up with things.
But I still like you!

As a new reader to KABUKI having began with Volume 2's The Alchemy, I for one would seek to (pre)order them above most other books. The MARVEL hardcovers are gorgeous in the oversized form, and more enticing than the six trade paperbacks I have yet to call my own.

Also should The Alchemy show up in hardcover form as merited the work within, whether it be as KABUKI: THE ALCHEMY HC or KABUKI VOL. 4 HC, the uniform oversized format is ideal for the bookshelf and contents digesting.

Then again, I am patiently waiting for MARVEL to produce the DAREDEVIL VISIONARIES: DAVID MACK HC collecting Wake Up and Echo: Vision Quest rather than purchase the TPBs. Current hopes are for January 2006 on that front.
