    Fingers crossed the last WW/Rucka paperback collection will see the light of day!

    Some of those cancellations seem to still be up for pre-order on sites like Amazon, though I believe they've just haven't gotten around to updating their info since after all Edelweiss is claiming cancellation and I can't find any mention of many of those trades on DC's official website when searching for them.

    Batman mentioned that in reference to how many times they have saved the universe, not how many times there has been a Crisis. Semantics perhaps, but still a distinction.

    Every post I make, it should be assumed by the reader that the following statement is attached: "It's all subjective. What works for me doesn't necessarily work for you, and vice versa, and that's ok. You may have a different opinion on it, but this is mine. That's the wonderful thing about being a comics fan, it's all subjective."

    DC only lists trades on their website after they are solicited to comic shops and some of these books haven't even made it that far. Any paperbacks due for release after June probably aren't on the website yet.

    That said, DC's website isn't a reliable source anyway. Books that have been solicited and cancelled before publication are still showing up on the site. (Waves at GL: Kyle Rayner Volume 3). I generally use the Extended Forecast on comiclist.com to see what's coming up, cancelled, etc.

    Yup, definitely one of those 5. Some of the contents from that book weren't going to be in the ZH omni that (hopefully) will come out, so I was looking forward to it.

    Also, DC cancelled Batman Shaman too...
    The Crisis box set is currently discounted to $350 on amazon.com... but still doesn’t give any details what’s in it.

    So Hush Omnibus and New Teen Titans Omnibus Vol. 4 are cancelled, too. Very disappointing

    NTT Vol 4 is due to be resolicited though, so that's something.

    Anyone picking up Promethea Deluxe HC tomorrow? I'm a big Alan Moore fan but never read this - worth it?

    I couldn't get through Promethea found it a bit boring honestly. I love Alan Moore in general though, so maybe it was just not for me on this one. I hate to vote against his work since he's done so much I loved.

    Hmm, I mean, it is Alan Moore. DC likes to milk everything it can from him.

    I'm surprised we never saw an Absolute Tom Strong

    Also, Promethea is really really good, if only got JHW3's art. I have the absolutes, otherwise I would pick these up

    Forgive me if this has already been asked, but is the Aquaman Omnibus by Johns already sold out? It just came out and I can’t find it anywhere?
