Each year our staff votes on honors for the best of the collected editions that we’ve reviewed in our Off The Presses section during that year. That includes both hardcover and soft covers. As in the comic book category, which we posted last week, there were some really enjoyable reads from a variety of publishers.

Just missing the cut for the Top Ten and seriously deserving at least honorable mention status were The Muppet Show Comic Book – Volume 1 (Boom! Studios), Desperadoes Omnibus (IDW Publishing), Frankenstein Mobster (IDW Publishing), and The Walking Dead Compendium One (Image Comics).

As always, we’ve excluded our own publications or any publications on which any of our staffers worked from the balloting.

You’ll find the countdown in our Off The Presses section beginning on Friday, December 18, 2009 at 8:00 AM.
