Over the years, I've read the Grendel saga a number of times, always finding something new. I can't stress enough how incredible and before its time this series was/is. Keep in mind, though, if you want the absolute completion from beginning to end then you'll really need to get the Batman/Grendel tpb (which is not collected in the omnibus books). This particular book collects the two mini series - one with Hunter Rose and the second one with Grendel Prime. Technically, you really only need the second one as it is actually a part of the final saga of omnibus volume 4.
I wish Dark Horse would also collect the Grendel Tales stories, which weren't written by Matt Wagner, but it is what it is.
I really can't recommend this saga enough. (In fact years ago, I actually had a letter printed in one of them and the company sent me some cool swag!)
For those who have read it, I'm curious about your thoughts on it.
