I thought this looked interesting: Fortress Commentary on the Bible Set. The commentary on the Old Testament also includes commentary on the Apocrypha. Logos does need more commentaries on the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha.
Fortress Commentary on the Bible Set.

This Pre-Pub needs a lot more orders before it is going to get made. This item is one you need to consider for several reasons. It is very affordable.. If you are of a more conservative school this commentary will offer you for an affordable price different views on current thoughts. For everyone that has an interest in the Apocrypha (be it part of your canon or simply good background to NT thought, you are presented with a full (albeit brief) treatment on it. Being released in 2014 it is an up-to-date work for all who love the Bible and adds a new voice to help you understand God's word. So please consider adding it too your Library. I am shocked this book is not closer to contract levels for the reasons I stated above
Interpret Scripture for a complex and pluralistic world with this balanced synthesis of current scholarship on the Bible. These commentaries set the biblical books in their historical and cultural contexts, discussing themes that have proven most important for the Christian interpretive tradition. Including contributions from 70 renowned authorities in the historical interpretation of the Old and New Testaments, the Fortress Commentary on the Bible is sensitive to theological and cultural issues, richly diverse in social locations and vantage points, and represents a broad array of theological commitment—Protestants, Catholics, Jews, and others. Most of all, it is alive to the ethical consequences of biblical interpretation today—an ideal resource for preaching, teaching, and research in the modern world.
