    Default What Year Do You Predict DC Will Be Done Reprinting Pre Crisis Superman & Batman

    If DC continues to collect the classic comics starring the Trinity in Silver and Bronze Age omnibuses as they have been doing for their Golden Age adventures, they should be finished collecting Pre Crisis Wonder Woman with Wonder Woman #329, Superman with Action Comics #583 & Superman #423, and Batman with Detective Comics #567 & Batman #400.

    I'm not sure they will ever by completely collected. A large chunk of the Bronze Age stuff has never been collected, and at the rate they are releasing volumes if they do the SA stuff first, I am not sure how much of a market there will be left for that Bronze Age stuff in print collections by the time they get to it, or if sales are strong enough to keep moving forward with those types of collections at all. I've been waiting for decent collections of BA Batman that aren't scatter shot by creators (or by villains/supporting characters) for a decade now and there hasn't been an inkling at all that we will see them.

    Ideally I'd like to see everything before 2000 collected in a character run (though that might be a controversial opinion). Certain Characters might have different end points than others e.g. Batman No Man's Land, Death and Return of Superman, JLA by Grant Morrison etc.

    With no additional variables like the ongoing pandemic or supply chain issues (re: paper supply)?
    It is a moving timeline now. They still haven't officially completed one of the Trinity's GA runs yet. Plenty of chatter about Batman needing a vol.10, right, to complete his GA run?
    Batman GA Omni vol.1 = 2015 release
    Batman GA Omni vol.10= 2022 release??

    That's 7 years for Batman. What is the projected volume count for SA&BA? If things hold static or get better maybe it can be altered up by a year or two and then you have the approximate answer.

    Never.

    They'll circle back and reformat/reprint GA and SA material before they ever complete a full run on any of these characters. Although Batman has the best chance, considering he's the most profitable.

    Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”

    Honestly, never, because they barely reprint any of it at all. Batman has basically nothing reprinting the early 80s stuff by Conway and Moench, etc. Does someone know otherwise?
