    Imagine if they still sold omnis for $75 cover price. In any case, I'm pretty glad to have purchased a new copy for about half off. Brubaker and Phillips are hella dope!!

    It's been years since I've read this. I remember liking it but I don't remember the story very well. Looking forward to picking it up and reading it again for (almost) the first time.

    The yellowing pages is just oxidization. It happens to pretty much all paper over time. Smoking and sunlight just make it all happen quicker.

    For years, I was tempted to buy a copy off eBay. So happy I never did. Last month I gave my really old trades to a co-worker since I knew this was coming. Almost thought I jinxed it by giving them away before I had this book in hand. But it’s here now!

      ​@@maths1995For me Incognito, but there are personal reasons. I was in hospital when I read Incognito. It helped me to forget where am I. IMO overall Sleeper has a better storyline, with better twists. The art is great in both books, because of Sean Phillips.

    Hey Omar thanks for the preview. I've had one on pre-order with Amazon since last August. I had a chance to grab one at a used book store but passed on it, much to my regret so I'm glad this is now back in print. Apparently not released until next month according to Amazon Australia? Cheers mate 👍😊

    I honestly thought this story was very over rated. The writer tried very hard to be a tough guy. Which is funny as he is a massive lefty. His other books are better.

      I preordered for £36.70 from Speedyhen, a bargain & must be the cheapest omnibus I've bought! I haven't opened mine yet so slightly disappointed to see DC are still persisting with that black hardback material, a nice glossy board with art does wonders for presentation...
