Received notice on the 17th that this has been "dispatched". Looking forward to it!

This is the most popular comic book message board on the web.

Any chance of a US release? Preferably in Omni or MM format?

Y'know, there was a time, and not so long ago, I would just have laughed at even the suggestion that Marvel might reprint HIDDEN YEARS. But that was before they announced a collection of SPIDER-MAN: CHAPTER ONE.

If THAT'S coming, I'd say just about ANYTHING is possible!!

With the acquisition of Marvel by Disney, there was probably an order from the parent company to look everywhere possible to boost sales. This is an obvious area to focus on.

Received my copy today. A very nice package. I have been a fan of "small" comics since I was a kid. Used to love those reduced covers Marvel ran as house ads.

The collection is well put together. Respectful, even!

Received mine today. I very much like the format. Looks like there's going to be a 2nd volume!

Got my copy yesterday, read it through 3 times already!

Like JB says, a lovely little package and it has a proper "JB vibe"!

It collects the  X-Men #94 preview and issues #1-#7, I'm guessing another 2 will collect the entire run.

Good times!

I'm glad it has the preview from X-Men #94 - I was concerned it would get left out.  I have the issue as part of the collection and include it when I re-read the series.

I just got mine yesterday and LOVE it!  I think the art looks great at this size -- it makes seeing the page as a whole that much easier. 

Beautiful!
