[QUOTE=Elmo;4969256]yeah great book. nothing groundbreaking but some really exciting moments especially if you're a fan of Cyborg or Jessica Cruz.
i'm not a fan of team books that shake up the roster more than a few times. JLO unfortunately does that. the story is consistent and engaging though, so I'd say it's worth a grab.[/QUOTE]
Thanks to you and Bob Schoonover! It sounded like a real interesting concept, I'll have to check it out. Much LIKE Abnetts other work, I doubt it'll be collected in a better, neater collection.
Any word on those DC collected editions that were cancelled this time last year? I really wanted the Justice League of America Bronze Age Omnibus to continue, since it just got into the heart of the "satellite era".

Bronze Age Brave and Bold Vol. 3 is finally resolicited for later in the year.
No word on JLA BA - just the Wedding HC that was recently released. I picked it up but would buy the larger omni if there was a double dip opportunity.
Jonah Hex just landed as well. Highly recommend it even if it's not in my preferred Omnibus format.
Any rumblings of The Unwritten deluxe series continuing? If Animal Man and Jack of Fables can be finished, I’m hoping that one picks back up too.

There's nothing in DC's latest Edelweiss catalogue, which covers up to the end of January next year.
Personally, I think it's very unlikely they'll restart these reprints in the forseeable future. While Animal Man and JoF have lengthy gaps between volumes, they have been published as solicited (so far anyway, in the case of Animal Man). OTOH, DC ended up cancelling the second deluxe for Unwritten before publication, presumably due to low orders. I can't see them resoliciting it again.
If sales on the Lucifer omnis are good, we might, just might, see an Unwritten Omnibus series at some point. But that's pure speculation on my part.

Very disappointing that the JLA omni has been made creator centric and skips issues. Also, looks like the Road to No Man’s Land omni collects almost the entirety of Cataclysm and Road to No Man’s Land Vol 1 and 2 tpbs. Seems to only be missing Batman #553 and Batman: No Man’s Land Secret Files and Origins #1 though those two issues might still be in the final book as DC sometimes misstated the issues that will be contained in these omnis. Also, Azrael #51-52 are actually in No Man’s Land Vol 1 tpb and not in the Road to No Man’s Land trades.

i'm ehhh about this. no man's land kind of follows a series of stories that begin with contagion, then go into legacy, then cataclysm and nml. it would have been cooler if they branded the omnibuses with this in mind, like the no man's land saga or something like that, and collected all the stories that led to this big story. this collection doesn't really start at the beginning imo.
Totally down for the Aquaman and Robin 80th Deluxes.
I'm a bit disappointed about the JLA omni skipping a few issues (also, no JLA: Classified 1-3?), but hopefully we get a JLA by Waid book that grabs all but one of them. Is it too much to hope for that and JLA by Joe Kelly (including JLE)? Please?
I get the argument for wanting Contagion and Legacy as an initial RNML omnibus, but there's no reason DC can't come back to that material. As long as they give it matching trade dress, I don't really care too much what they call it. I'd be more interested to see if we get a New Gotham omni (probably more than one would be necessary) after they finish NML. I love that material (Brubaker, Rucka, Officer Down, GK by Grayson)
Am I missing something about the JLA Solicitation? 33 issues plus JLA 1,000,000 and JLA Earth 2 and it is over 1,500 pages? How can that mapping be correct? That is over 45 pages per entry which can't be correct, even with filler and bonus material. Even if you subtract the full page count for the JLA 1,000,000 and Earth 2 trades, it leaves over 33 pages per listed issue.
Also really disappointed in the solicits for the JLA omnibus - more for it only being Morrison. I'd rather it be a straight 1-41. JLA Classified 1-3 would be a nice bonus, but let's be honest, those belonged in the Seven Soldiers omnibus. The One Million issue and the Earth 2 OGN aren't really needed as they're already collected in the One Million omnibus and the standalone Earth 2 Deluxe.
These massive 1,500+ page tomes are just too cumbersome for me. Really wish they'd split them into at least two volumes. I really appreciate that they did that with Morrison's Batman (for whatever reason) for example.
I plan on getting
JLA by Morrison Omnibus
Power Of Shazam deluxe vol 1
Batman No Mans Land Omnibus
And maybe something else.

A thousand times this. he books are easier to read, hold up better over time, and DC can get more money by getting people to pay for multiple books. Genuinely curious why they keep putting out these bigger and bigger books.
In for Aquaman and possibly the Superman v. WW.

I suppose they want to maximise revenue, by getting as much money as possible up front.
Personally, I think a good compromise would be to split these 1500 page books across two volumes, but sell them as single box/slip case set. That way, readers get more a more manageable reading experience, and DC still gets the revenue of a 1500 page omnibus.
The only drawback is that it would increase production costs for DC, therefore eating into profits. On the other hand, I can only imagine this would only increase sales, as it would be more appealing to readers put off by a massive single tome.
Look forward to the final solicitation for Morrison
JLA omnibus. Either the page count is to high,
Or it will include the Waid issues, or there is a
Whole chunk of extra material in the back.

Interesting omnis, but I'm not being stung by DC again. I'll wait until I see the binding before I buy.
I grabbed StormWatch vol 1 & 2 hardcovers for 80 bucks. To me it was a steal because even finding a paperback copy of volume 1 that wasn’t ridiculously expensive was difficult. These are together and in hardcover and pristine condition. They just arrived so I can’t wait to read em
How are the power of shazam books? New user friendly?
The Morrison JLA Omnibus sounds like an uncomfortable mess. It should have been two volumes and included DC One Million 1-4, as well as JLA Classified 1-3. I'll stick with my deluxe editions. I would love to get a JLA by Mark Waid omnibus some day. His post-Morrison run kind of fell apart eventually, but there were some good stories there. I also love his fill-ins from issues 18-21.
Count me among those who wish it was not Morrison specific(love his stories like I do).
I much would've preferred a continuous issue JLA Omni with a volume 2 and 3.
I have the Deluxe Editions and I was shocked the Mark Waid Adam Strange stories weren't included. I would have double dipped had they put the complete run but I guess not. I was buying the single issues when they came out and it all felt like part of the same run.
I was watching a video Near Mint Condition was doing and Omar said he has reached out to DC but they have not engaged with him the way Marvel has. I’m not sure why DC won’t listen to their customers. Man of Steel by Byrne won a poll for most wanted omni yet that got cancelled. That’s basically a license to print money so it is nonsensical why they don’t give consumers what they want. Same here with the JLA omni. By and large, the vast majority wanted the whole run collected. Once again, a decision that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. I was hoping with DiDio gone that there would be positive changes but it looks like more of the same at the moment.
Just placed my order for Robin Bronze Age omnibus and the
Worlds Finest HC from IST
