Hey all,
I remember reading somewhere that when the series ended, there was going to be one, large, hardcover collection of the entire series for either this or Buffy S8. Can anyone remind me definitively which one it was? I probably wanna hold out on buying the TPBs in favor of this when it does come out, so I'd like to know before the first ATF TPB comes out.

As far as I can remember, both are possible, but neither have been confirmed.

I definitely remember hearing from Scott that he'd (paraphrasing here...) submitted a design for the Season Eight collection and it'd been approved by Dark Horse. So, that's pretty much a definite. Not sure about After The Fall. Sure hope so, though.

I believe Brian Lynch has mentioned that he would love to see this for ATF. I would be suprised if they didn't do it for Season 8, especially because hardcovers were not readily available for the first 2 arcs. They know there are suckers like me who will buy all the issues, then the TPBs, then the complete hardcover.

It's been said this would happen to the Buffy: Season Eight comics.

I really want an After the Fall Complete Collection, all in one nice hardcover. I would buy that in a heartbeat.

I can honestly say there are no plans for a complete AFTER THE FALL series as of yet. Who knows down the road, though, maybe it will happen. I hope so, that would be a huge book.

I would LOVE to see this for ATF and Season 8!! Me, being one of those suckers out there, will buy everything that comes out.

I love the concept of having them all in one hardcover book and it would look great displayed with the DVDs and such, but wouldn't it be almost impossible to read? That's so many pages! I have the hardcover Long Way Home TPB and THAT'S pretty hard to read at times, I can't imagine what 40 issues would be like.

There are rumors going around that the TPB might look something like this...

I never knew there was a hardcover Long Way Home!!
Hardcover ftw...I'll take it as many times as I can. I HATE paperbacks because I'm always wanting to keep it looking nice and reading it is way more of a hassle.

I have to save my money for the next few months, so I won't be able to buy the TPB's (I'm skipping the Buffy TPB's as well). Either way though, when After the Fall is done I will buy the TPB's if a complete collection isn't released. I really love Hardcover TPB's though. My other favorite comic series is called "The Walking Dead," and I am absolutely in love with the HC TPB's that are released (I think HC TPB's just look classier). This is what they look like:

Forgive my apparent lack of knowledge earlier lol.
I'm content with 3 or 4 ATF hardcovers as long as they remain consistant. Pwease Mr Lynch.

Well Buffy Season 8 won't even finish its regular issues until roughly three years from now in 2011. So it'll be a loooooong wait for the complete collection Plus, 50 issues in one book. Won't it be kinda heavy? It'd be the size of an encylopedia!
