Vault announces a line of Compact Edition Graphic Novels

Posted on by

Compact comics are back again! After the success of DC’s Compact Editions and Marvel’s Marvel Premiere, Vault Comics has announced Vantage, an new line of compact sized graphic novels that will republish some of Vault’s most beloved series in a new portable format. Sized at  5.5” by 8.5”, each compact edition graphic novel will collect either the entire series or contain multiple story arcs of longer ongoing series. Each volume will be a stunningly presented, satisfying reading experience priced at just $14.99. $14.99 is the same amount as Marvel’s releases while DC’s are priced at $9.99.

Vault’s Vantage line will debut with three titles in December 2025, with a second wave to follow that will be announced in the coming weeks. The first batch of Vantage releases will include the following: 

MONEY SHOT: COMPACT BOOK 1 

Small enough to fit into your pocket dimension! Money Shot: Compact Book 1 collects issues #1-#10 of the bestselling and raunchy series, now in a discreet size that’s sure to slip through intergalactic baggage scanners without tripping any alarms.

In the near future, space travel is ludicrously expensive and largely ignored. Enter Christine Ocampo, inventor of the Star Shot teleportation device with a big idea: She’ll travel to new worlds, engage—intimately—with local aliens, and film her exploits for a jaded earth populace trying to find something new on the internet. Now, Chris and the XXX-plorers, her merry band of scientist-cum-pornstars, explore the universe, each other, and the complexities of sex in MONEY SHOT!

A story about scientists having sex with aliens for the glory of mankind.

MONEY SHOT: COMPACT BOOK 1 

THESE SAVAGE SHORES: COMPACT 

These Savage Shores: Compact collects the entire series from Eisner award-winning creators Ram V and Sumit Kumar, named “”One of the 5 Best-Written Horror Comics of All Time”” (CBR).

Two centuries after the first European ship sailed to the Malabar Coast and made landfall at Calicut, The East India Company seeks to secure its future along the lucrative Silk Route, in the year 1766. An old evil now sails aboard a company ship, hoping to make a home in this new found land. But he will soon find that the ground along the Indus is an ancient one with daemons and legends far older than himself.

Along These Savage Shores, where the days are scorched and the nights are full of teeth.

Graphic Policy’s Top Comic Picks this Week!

Avengers: Curse of the Man-Thing #1

Wednesdays (and now Tuesdays) are new comic book day! Each week hundreds of comics are released, and that can be pretty daunting to go over and choose what to buy. That’s where we come in

Each week our contributors choose what they can’t wait to read this week or just sounds interesting. In other words, this is what we’re looking forward to and think you should be taking a look at!

Find out what folks think below, and what comics you should be looking out for this week.

Avengers: Curse of the Man-Thing #1 (Marvel) – Writer Steve Orlando takes Man-Thing through a journey in this mini-series celebrating the character.

Beta Ray Bill #1 (Marvel) – Can Beta Ray Bill finally get the spotlight he deserves?

Crossover #5 (Image Comics) – The series has gone back and forth across line of being a bit too self-referential and inside jokes but it’s a hell of a concept and it’s interesting to see what else the team folds in.

Nuclear Family #2 (AfterShock) – The first issue was intriguing and left us in the middle of a bombed-out American town. What is going on!?

The Other History of the DC Universe #3 (DC Comics) – The series has been impressive at how honest it’s been with each issue. This one takes on Katana during the 80s!

Power Rangers Unlimited: Heir to Darkness #1 (BOOM! Studios) – The popular villain Astronema gets the spotlight as her origin is revealed.

Shadecraft #1 (Image Comics) – Zadie Lu is convinced that the shadows are trying to kill her and something weird is going on in her small town.

Silk #1 (Marvel) – A character that always deserved to be a bigger deal than she was, we’ll see if this miniseries is finally the one to put her over the top and cement A-status.

Two Moons #2 (Image Comics) – This horror series set during the Civil War had a solid debut and we want to see where it goes from there.

Witchblood #1 (Vault Comics) – A modern story of a witch cruising the Southwest as a gang of biker vampires wants the source of her coven’s power.

Young Hellboy: The Hidden Land #2 (Dark Horse) – The first issue had a fun pulp sense about it and we’re hoping for more of that.
