Godzilla's original Marvel Comics run gets a fresh Omnibus
Yes, Godzilla as in Godzilla. The famed movie monster had a Marvel run of his own in the 70s, and now those books are getting collected.

What do all the terms mean? Like what's a tradeback? And any related words you can think of, I know I've heard a lot that I don't know what they mean but I don't remember them right now
hey for sure!
(the images are just random ones I found on google to demonstrate)
basically when it comes to comics they can come in lots of different forms, and the terms can overlap and be a little confusing.
the original way to get a comic - well, aside from the funny pages in a newspaper - is a single issue. between say 20 to 25 pages, more if it's a special issue like a pride collection, with ads taking up a few pages in the middle. Supposed to tell a full story from beginning to end, although it might tie into the issue before or after.
Tumblr media
a trade - or trade paperback, or trade hardback, sometimes shortened to a tradeback - is a collected edition of a number of single issues, reprinted in usually chronological order, to tell a slightly larger stories. usually if you go to a comic book store and pick a book up that actually resembles a book, it's going to be a trade of some kind. most trades getting published nowadays have around 5-6 issues, but sometimes you'll see a trade of significantly larger chunks, especially for classic stories, for maxi series*, if a run is short and you might as well, for an Event(tm) that would be too difficult to read otherwise, or for things published for the express purpose of becoming a graphic novel.
*where a mini series is a pre-planned limited series that is usually between 4 and 6 issues, a maxi series is a pre-planned limited series that's a little bit longer, like 10 or 12 issues
examples off my shelves for slightly larger trades include watchmen (express purpose of becoming a graphic novel); deadpool by kelly thompson (the whole run is ten issues, so might as well); the death of superman (a classic story); spider-verse (an Event); and batman: the long halloween (a maxi series).
Tumblr media
trades are usually paperback, although there will sometimes be limited hardback releases for various reasons, such as it being a collector's edition. for some reason my trades of angel: after the fall are hardback, which I didn't expect till they showed up.
for marvel, regular trades for series are printed with the numbers on the bottom of the spine, so you can collect them and not have any doubles; as such as I have Alias volume 1 through 4, easy peasy. dc is weird about this, and sometimes prints them on the side, sometimes on the back, and sometimes you just have to look inside for which issues are being reprinted. it's a nightmare and I don't understand it.
aside from single issues and trades there are also omnibuses, which are just REALLY BIG trades, to be honest. these things are massive, and technically will get you the most bang for your buck - but it's a big upfront expense. they're higher quality than your normal trade (or at least are supposed to be), they're printed on slightly bigger paper so they're easier to read, and also, at least for all of my hardcover omnis, they're actually sewn, which anybody who's ever talked to me knows is a rarity in today's hardback book market, but makes sense because it reduces the strain on the spine. these things aren't printed for just everything. one of the omnis I have is the gwenpool omnibus, which includes all her main titles and most of her appearances to date - that's not nothing! depending on the omni and how long the issues were, this thing can contain several dozen issues, all in one place.
Tumblr media
there is such a thing as a paperback omni, but they're rare, and in my opinion, stupid. I have a collected edition of half of season eight of buffy that's supposedly an omni (it says it on the cover at least), and it's literally half the size of the original comics (instead of being a little bit bigger) and it's still falling apart.
generally, if you're reading an ongoing run, you're either going to be following the single issues or the trades - at least for marvel, who publish the trades in a timely manner; dc is, again, fucking weird about trades, and I would love to pick their brains on why they think it's okay to take six months to a year to maybe print a trade, when for marvel it's on the shelf the next month, guaranteed.
thanks for asking and I hope this helps!

I think if I had to do an in universe comic run for one of the main Big Companies, I would create a character named The Outsider (I know there's already like fifteen outsiders but bear with me) and their only thing would be going into every other comic and making the main characters sum up everything that's happened to them so far. With timelines. Meanwhile the outsider just nods the whole time with a carefully concerned look on their face, making the characters feel more and more awkward as this goes. Oh, Lady Shiva kidnapped you in the middle of the night as part of an elaborate custody battle over another one of batman's kids. Hmm. I see. That's interesting. And how many organs are the three of you missing between you? That seems difficult. Ah, somehow general zod returned, I see. Does anyone know how, or

I grew up reading Spider-Man Comics Weekly here in the UK which were reprints in black & white. This Essentials Volume No.2 was a real nostalgic trip back down memory lane and the stories still read great in gud ole black & white.
This collection reprints Amazing Spider-Man #21-42 plus Annuals #2-3 by Stan Lee, Steve Ditko and John Romita.
