Amazon Has a “Buy 2, save 50% on 1” Sale on Comics. Here are Some of the Best DC and Marvel Omnibus Deals.

Amazon is currently having a “Buy 2, save 50% on 1” sale on tons of different books. Basically, if you want two $30 books, you can now buy one for $30 and one for $10. So, you’ll pay a total of $45 instead of $60 dollars.

This sale includes comics and the comics include Omnibus Editions. Since Omnibus Editions are pricy already, the sale is a great change to expand your collection and get a steep reduction on some books you’ve had your eye on for a while.

However, not every Omnibus Edition is on sale. Just a few choice collections seem to offer this discount. So, we’ve tried to gather together the on-sale items and compile them into a handy list for you. We’ve even put some of our favorite choices in bold.

Just note that this list seems to be shifting as this sale goes on. We’ve noticed some of the Omnibus editions we saw on sale earlier aren’t on sale anymore and, meanwhile, a few new ones suddenly are. So, just be aware that this list is subject to change and make sure you double-check for the sale indicator before you buy.
