Ah, conveniently in time for my birthday (26th). For some reason amazon uk only sells Prehistrionics and Tofu Knights which I got last Christmas. Anyway, liking the name and cover, makes quite a nice set.

Wau. I wish my parents wouldn't yell at me for buying a comic book, because I would totally buy it.

That's because until this week, those were the only two I had purchased distribution packages for; at the time I was a little strapped for cash and didn't have more than a couple hundred to spend on book distribution. :) Now, however, I do, so expect all the O&M books to be available on Amazon some time in the near future.

a question to you guys who own books: is the filler stuff from the old books in any way included in the new ones, or am I forever to suffer the inability to see it all?

The site says that this new book has the filler material of books 3 and 4, which is the time span it presumably covers.

I include all of it.

Though unfortunately, the bonus material in books 2, 4, and 5, originally in color, has to be reproduced in B&W in the new books.

Some day maybe I'll put out an all-color book.

I noticed that.
Unfortunately, it means I need to buy Tofu Knights again. You know, so my collection matches? So they all have ISBN?
I know, you shouldn't pity me, it's my fault for being obsessive -_-'

Anyway, that's a good news and my favourite cover of the reprints. "Tofu Knights" will always be a special book for me, though, as it's the first o&m strip I've ever read. (I have to admit I was really confused, especially with the part "the wolf has a dragon for a father?" and yes I know Ozy isn't a wolf but I didn't know it back then.)

Anyway, i'll buy them all when I'm back in France, so that I don't have to carry them in my luggage (they have a ridiculously low limit for someone who's trying to move).

I guess my "Tofu Knights" without an ISBN is going to go with all the plan9 books in my collector display ^^ (I'd put the other ones too, but I like being able to actually, you know, read them).

Anyway, good for you DC, and good luck with what I'm guessing is going to be the last reprint and with your best of (if you're still working on that one, of course).

Actually "Tofu Knights" and "Prehistrionics" have had ISBNs for a while now, according to Wikipedia. I'd double-check if I were you.

Yes, I know. but I bought it the day it came out (or close to) and it didn't have an ISBN at the time. Same for "insert title here" which, to the best of my knowledge, still doesn't.
As for Prehistrionics, I haven't bought it yet because I was in Canada already when it came out, so it's not an issue.
