For those interested the collected editions blog has posted that "Batman: New Gotham 2" has had a renewed solicit that includes: Detective Comics issues #755-765 and Superman #168
I didn't like it either. Too cheesy and schmaltzy, the voices felt too off.
Putting that aside, superhero comics are still probably not for you. It's more few and far between to get memorable superhero comics. It's better to be a superhero comics reader if you're just a fan of those type of comics already in general.
Things I love: Batman, Superman, AEW, old films, Lovecraft
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.”

LOL. Yeah, that thing looks unruly. Good thing it's sitting on a metal cart, or it would fall through to the floor.
That's awesome that Barda is on the spine. It would be cool if they had included Scott too. The Kirby face is a nice touch. Even though I already have all of the NG issues in floppies, I came this close to buying this book.

Just looked at the poll and it seems that fans are split. Half like omnis and half like deluxe editions. I prefer the latter myself, but like the omnis too.

Looking forward to Waid's Cap and the Thor OHC.
I initially had X-Men Classic and JLA Detroit on there but I ended up cutting them because I just suspect I'll be disappointed. JLA in the 80s was pretty bad and I didn't realize there was going to be an "X-tax" on the Classic book. I'm just not that interested - especially after seeing that Nocenti is involved in at least some of the stories.
I read some of the Dr. Strange stuff in floppies and it wasn't bad but I think I'll take my chances that one day the entire Aaron run is collected in an omnibus.
I'm also tempted to get Descender.

There are even more pics of that massive Kirby tome over at the omnibus collector Facebook group.

Oh my word! Very tempting but I'm not that big enough of a Kirby fan to pick it up. Plus I need to direct my funds elsewhere.
Probably just Cap Waid Omni for me. I'm thinking about the X-Men Classic Omni in order to complement my UXM Omnis.
Yes please. Me too. IIRC, they started giving us the 2-3% around this time last year.
