Seeking complete Doc series list

[commish]

It has taken me 30 years, but I have collected (I think) all the
single Bantam titles from #1 Man of Bronze to #96 Mystery on Happy
Bones. After that the double titles came out (97 to 126) and then the
Omnibus series (1-13). Now that I have the single titles I have
started gathering the doubles titles (I have 97-106, 109/110, 117/118,
121-124) and the Omnibus titles (1, 4, 5, 13 so far). What I want to
know is if anyone can confirm this is a definitive list of the series
or is there more? I want to collect the whole thing and then pass it
down to my son who is now 8.

Anyone who can direct me to a definitive list, I would be very
appreciative.

I can't say for certain whether it's definitive, but I often refer to
<http://home.comcast.net/~man-of-bronze/index3.htm> for Bantam editions.
I have a printed copy close at hand that I check when I'm searching for
additions to my own collection.

If you know of any good sources for double editions and/or Omnibus
titles that are *reasonably* priced, I'd like to hear of them. I have
the double edition for 26/27 and am debating seeking the singles to have
a complete set of 1-96. And I've yet to get about a half dozen of the
doubles, while I have only one Omnibus to date. Every one I've seen at
Amazon.com has been rather pricey.

I keep arguing with myself on this. On one hand, the prices for
omnibuses are too high and will come down (compare with say eight
years ago, and thye have). But will they come down much further,
given that with every year the omnibuses are older (2011 marks the
20th anniversary of the last omnibus)

You can always collect the new doubles that have been coming out. I am
even though I have a complete run of Bantam paperbacks.

I haven't seen any of these new doubles during my periodic searches at
Amazon. But my goal has mainly been to complete my Bantam collection,
and I'm always a bit surprised at the high price on omnibuses when I see
them.

Wouldn't we all.

13 is the last Omnibus, but I'm not sure if there are any more doubles
after 124 offhand.

Ergo, I'll direct you here: http://www.docsavage.org/ which is, sadly,
not as user-friendly as it used to be for this sort of query.
