[QUOTE=Orf with his head;4409701]Is the Byrne Doom Patrol run any good? I’ve never read it before and just curious if it’s cash grab due to the series or Byrne.
50/50 on this. I’ll be getting the Bronze Age omnibus (providing it’s not cancelled) as it links up to my Morrison Omni[/QUOTE]
Byrne's DP was awful, imho. Not worth your money in the slightest.
The Bronze Age book is a better bet; I'll be picking that one up for sure.

Batman by Morrison v2 comes out on Wednesday - I'm super interested to see where DC landed on the reading order (at this juncture, there's little point in suggesting an order, but I suppose we can all get apprehensive that it won't match our preference). I'll be fine with any vaguely reasonable order - I'm just ready to re-read all this material again (well, in two weeks - I got a fantastic pre-order price on Amazon)

On the marvel masterworks board someone posted this about the order:
[I]A member of the Omnibus Collector's Facebook group got an early copy and posted the order:
Batman & Robin 1-9
Batman 700
B&R 10-12 alternating with Return of Bruce Wayne 1-3 (B&R 10, then RoBW 1, then B&R 11, etc.)
Batman 701-701
B&R 13-15 alternating with RoBW 4-6
B&R 16[/I]

Cool. That's about what I expected and should flow pretty well. My only real question was if they'd break up 10-12 or run them consecutively followed by ROBW 1-3 (after seeing how Knightfall v2 was collected, it seemed like DC preferred ordering omnibuses so that they could be easily broken up into tpb-sized chunks).

DOOMSDAY CLOCK PART ONE HC worth it? Why not Deluxe edition with 12 issues? lol Is there a chance for omnibus and should I skip?

Morrison worth the purchase?

[QUOTE=DaCollector;4411400]Morrison worth the purchase?[/QUOTE]
Absolutely, but you'll want to be familiar with volume 1.

It's practically guaranteed they'll eventually release it in both omnibus and absolute form. I'd wait it out if I were you.

Why not just do an Infinite Crisis Companion Omnibus DC Collections Dept???

[QUOTE=Captain Craig;4412103]Why not just do an Infinite Crisis Companion Omnibus DC Collections Dept???[/QUOTE]
Because instead of charging $150 for a companion omnibus they can charge us $75 for each companion separately. I believe there’s going to be what, four deluxes? I may have that wrong.
-
[QUOTE=Captain Craig;4410032]Very. I would say it is very likely they are later re-solicited.
However, if you're going to publish them anyway, why not as originally scheduled?
Is it just to try and capitalize on Aquaman and Doom Patrol media tie-ins? Aquaman is hot, sequel forthcoming and DP with the new show. Strike while the iron is hot cause you know you have a captive audience on the Bronze Age JLA v.3 and B:B&B v.3[/QUOTE]
I hope so much this is true. Those two Bronze Age books would be beyond great for me personally.

[QUOTE=SJNeal;4410466]Byrne's DP was awful, imho. Not worth your money in the slightest.[/QUOTE]
It's a real shame that such a crap is getting the omnibus treatment while (already announced) premium content like Brave And The Bold Batman Vol. 3 or JLA Vol. 3 is cancelled!
-
I plan on picking up the “crap” :eek:
I read the series years back
And while it pales to his Fantastic Four
And Superman’, and probably was
In his declining years of writer/artist
Output it was for me still a nice
Comic book.
:confused: but than that could just be the
Big Jonn Byrne fan in me :cool:
