The current 'Humble Comics Bundle: Tank Girl 30th Anniversary by Titan' almost completely supersedes the 2017 bundle. The only comics which seem not to be included in this newer offer are:

- Tank Girl: The Gifting #1-4
- Tank Girl: Visions of Booga #1-4
- Tank Girl: The Royal Escape #1-4

Everything else is present, often expanded upon, with a lot of new content added as well.

The 'Humble Book Bundle: Tales of Horror' is interesting in that it includes Alan Moore's From Hell, which isn't available from comiXology for many european customers. It was offered at least once before in 2014's 'Humble eBook Bundle IV', though, so you may already have it.
So, everyone who always wanted to buy one of those "Hellboy Megabundles" from Dark Horse but ultimately didn't because of the high price (usually $100, I believe) should be very pleased now. Because at the German amazon store the four (English) omnibi (or is it "omnibuses"?) that were just released a few months ago and cover the whole main series can be bought for about €14 (Vol. 1 and 2: €2,89, Vol. 3 and 4: €4,12)! Additionally Vol. 1 of "The Complete Short Stories" is also reduced to €3,61 - only Vol. 2 of the Short Stories (which was only released in August) is still at the normal price of €14,99.

https://www.amazon.de/s/ref=sr_nr_n_10?fst=as%3Aoff&rh=n%3A530484031%2Ck%3AHellboy+Omnibus&keywords=Hellboy+Omnibus&ie=UTF8&qid=1540281203&rnid=1703609031

I haven't checked other amazon stores but I guess amazon.com or amazon.co.uk should be at similar prices - and if not, it shouldn't be that big a problem to buy the comics from amazon.de (and, as I said, they are in English).

Of course the Megabundles often feature additional Spin-Offs and crossovers like "B.P.R.D." but still: This amazon offer is pretty great!

Edit: Oh, I should mention: Digital comics that are bought from amazon are automatically transferred to your Comixology account as well (if they are connected)!

Yes, Hellboy Omniboo $3.99 at Amazon US too. I own the whole series in physical format, and at Dark Horse Digital, but bought those at Amazon (Comixology-compliant) just to have it in an easy and chronological format. Almost 2000 pages of one of the best series in comic book history for less than $16? Yes please!
Hi,
You can also find on Amazon France Conan Omnibus Volume 1 at €1,81.


I guess you should find the same kind of price on other Amazon

Humble Comics Bundle "Back to the '80s" by IDW:
https://www.humblebundle.com/books/back-to-the-80s-books?hmb_source=navbar&hmb_medium=product_tile&hmb_campaign=tile_index_7

Definitely some repeats like "Ghostbusters" but I haven't looked to close at it because this bundle is not for me anyways (I would only be interested in "Back to the Future" and "Highlander").

On the other hand, Dynamites "Fall Horror Bundle" at Groupees seems pretty good with complete seasons/miniseries only (they really seem to have learned from their mistakes in that respect). Not as good as the just ended "Lone Ranger" bundle but decent. There is a number of repeats though: "Monster War", "Mercy Thompson", "Army of Darkness / Xena", "Dracula" and "Dresden Files" have been bundled from Humble Bundle, the first 15 issues of "Dark Shadows" from Storybundle and "Grimm" from Comixology.
Humble Comics Bundle "The Darkness Sci-Fi & Sex" by Top Cow:
https://www.humblebundle.com/books/the-darkness-sex-scifi-books?hmb_source=navbar&hmb_medium=product_tile&hmb_campaign=tile_index_4

I haven't had time to go through the bundle in detail, but: In the $15 tier are two "The Darkness" compendiums that, according to the description, contain 90 (!) issues of the series. So in terms of quantity that's certainly an impressive bundle (although there are some bundle repeats).

Update to the Top Cow Humble Bundle, because it's even bigger than I first imagined: It contains virtually the complete "The Darkness" series (except some crossovers), that's about 130 issues!
Also, the bundle repeats are fewer than I initially thought: According to my notes, only Vol. 1-3 of "Postal" (now the complete series of seven volumes is included), "Sunstone", "Blood Stain" and parts of "The Darkness" have been bundled before. So for $15 (that you can give completely to charity, if you want) that's a really great bundle if you're interested in the offered comics at all.
I have one doubt about some Humble Bundles because the cbr/cbz compression isn't very good. So, how I could export pdf files to cbr/cbz for better quality?

Thanks

Thank you. With Calibre I can export epub to zip with the same high quality, but if I export pdf to zip, the pictures have good quality but without letters. I don't know how to export exactly pdf files

I don't know why, but the download from TEBookConverter page doesn't incluyed any .exe

Anyway, I was reading on Calibre Forums, and I found it:

"My pdf converted, but it doesn't contain any text, or the text is all garbled
Many pdfs are actually made up of many images of scanned books, one image for each page. Many of these types of pdfs use hidden OCR (optical character recognition - i.e. machine reading) text underneath the images, but not all of them do. When there is no OCR text at all, you will often get a conversion that has no text, or is made up only of images. If the pdf uses hidden OCR text, in most cases no editing was done to the OCR, and depending on the text quality and OCR engine the resulting text can be quite awful. There isn't anything you can do with a pdf like this in Calibre. Your best bet is to use real OCR software like ABBYY Finereader or Acrobat Professional to convert the document. There are also open source OCR projects such as Tesseract and OCRopus."

So, that's why I got a file with pictures but without text.

I was thinking and testing: crb/cbz and epub converter to zip with my standar app e-reader.

PDF with Acrobat Reader.

Some Humble Bundles have good quality crb/cbz, others epub have more quality, and some PDF, so, finally it's just a combo and see first what is the best format of any particular comic incluyed in that bundle.

Thanks for your helping
Humble Comics Bundle "Highlights of Aspen Comics":
https://www.humblebundle.com/books/highlights-from-aspen-books?hmb_source=navbar&hmb_medium=product_tile&hmb_campaign=tile_index_5

Many repeats from the two previous Humble Aspen Bundles but that actually makes sense since they are not just repeating but also continuing all included series - so "newcomers" don't have to settle with just the newest volumes from 2017 and 2018 ... Also there are quite a few (both older and newer) miniseries that are completely new to bundles. All in all a good deal in terms of quantity.
