If so, you may not be aware that there have been several folks around these parts who have been clamoring for a Simonson Thor Omnibus for years. I don't recall who in particular, but a couple of them have been very vocal about it. You may or may not be aware that the Simonson Thor Omnibus was far and away voted the most requested Omnibus in the last two Masterworks Surveys...

DanaMania wrote:A slipcased set is vain hope as far as I know. I suggested a two-volume slipcased set years ago, along with the "Marvel Supreme Editions" label. Modern masterpieces like Walt's Thor, Miller's DD, Byrne's FF - that sorta stuff was tailor made for a special line of "super deluxe slipcase hard covers." This was back before the first Omnibus volume..

Did Simonson himself answer the mail? Were there lots of negative reactions to the "bold new direction" or something?

Would that total include/exclude/ignore potential letters pages...?
DanaMania wrote:As far as the letter pages, IMO, they are far more important than some of those suggested extras... Walt and Ralph Macchio did respond to a lot of readers' queries at the time.
