  1. Honestly as weird as it sounds they should do more contracts like Claremont’s for legacy creators. It essentially means he actually gets a retirement. He’s earned it, even if his current stuff doesn’t sell so much

  3. Man didn't know your dad was back in hospital. I hope everything is ok and sending best wishes and a speedy recovery to you dad Omar. Being stuck in hospital is never a good thing to go through. Hope you are holding up ok too buddy.🙂

    Will be thinking of you.

  4. Omar, do you know if there has been any updates on the spawn origins hardcovers being reprinted? I’ve seen that volume 6 of the absolute sized get solicited but no news about the origins hardcovers

  5. Did anyone else catch a conspiratorial twinkle in the eyes of our man Omar and Larry Hama in their recent chat?

    I expect Omar’s Big Secret Announcement is that Marvel is (flippin’ finally!) picking up the rights to publish G.I.Joe comics again.

    Why else would Omar need to send his prerecorded video to Marvel’s legal team but for copyright clarity reasons?

    Go Joe, baby!

  6. Hey man, I’ve been fired a few times. But without getting fired from my last two places, it wouldn’t have pushed me to finally get to teaching, and now I’ve been happier than ever. Sometimes the push is negative, but the door you’re pushed through works out better for you ❤️

  7. Omar, I’m not sure you have answered this, but, did you mention to David about including the Ellis Starjammers mini series to Excalibur Omnibus vol 3? I also noticed the Omni will now be coming out early 2024! Hopefully the delay is because they are adding the mini!

  8. Omar, I visited the MMW Forum for the first time today, well it was yesterday(April 23). The last time I was there was Jan 17. I was appalled what I saw. That forum has become toxic. I know that term is used a lot nowadays, but from when I started looking at that forum in September 2018, it has gone down the tubes. There were a few questionable people on there around that time in 2018, but it seems to have been infiltrated with terrible people since early this year. Even Mark Waid, who is on there and definitely is stubborn and not open minded, has become snarky and rude to people on there. The final straw came when a few hours ago I saw what numerous people were saying about you. It was terrible and offensive, to me. I can’t believe people would say those things. I know Peter M said a few weeks ago to ignore that place and never look back, but I wanted to give it another chance after not being on there for 3+ months. I have to say, I will never go back there again. It was a place I enjoyed going on from August 2020-January 2023, but it has become a toxic place now, to me. It is a shame, but it has become a black eye for the comics community. I know I will not recommend it to anyone. I’m glad you are here, Omar, along with the other Omnibros. You guys are the shining light in the comics community! You always are so positive and always bring me joy! I can’t speak for anyone else, but it is always a high point in my day when I get to watch your videos and interact with you. Keep up the good work and don’t let anyone bring you down! Thanks! Talk to you soon!
