    You never know, DC may at some point release an expanded Superman Morrison Omnibus and include All Star Superman.

    Just for a different take, contrary to how a couple others felt about that run, I actually thought it started off weak but ended up great from the middle to end of his run. I felt Morrison did a solid job playing with the 5th dimension aspect of the Superman mythos, and tied the storyline out nicely.

    The final covers for most of next month's big books are up on UCS and/or Comixology. Funnily enough, there are no Omnibuses out in October. Anything that was originally due in October (eg JLA, Lucifer Vol 2, Books of Magic) have all been moved to November or December.

    Anyways, here's what's out on 6th October

    BATMAN GOTHAM BY GASLIGHT THE DELUXE EDITION HC
    Collects Batman: Gotham by Gaslight, Batman: Master of the Future, Convergence: Shazam! #1-2 and Countdown Presents: The Search for Ray Palmer: Gotham by Gaslight #1. 208 pages. $34.99 cover price.


    MISTER MIRACLE THE DELUXE EDITION HC
    Collects Mister Miracle #1-12, plus with sketches, scripts, and the full pencil art to issue #1! 376 pages. $49.99 cover price.


    And out on 13th October
    DOOMSDAY CLOCK THE COMPLETE COLLECTION TP
    Collects Doomsday Clock #1-12. 456 pages. $39.99 cover price

    Wait... wasn't BATMAN GOTHAM BY GASLIGHT THE DELUXE EDITION HC cancelled by DC? Or was that just a bad dream I had?

    There was an Absolute version solicited, but it was cancelled in January with a note that it would be resolicited in a different format. Then the deluxe was solicited to the direct market in June, and so far is on track for release the week after next.

    Oh thanks, that might have been it then.

    I'm waiting for this to be packaged into an Omnibus. This original Young Justice is one I have fond memories.

    You know that an Omnibus will only be announced when you buy Books One to Five of the trades and are about to order Book 6.

    YJ would make a nice 2 omnibus set if they included World Without Grownups, the Secret/Girlfrenzy one shot, the whole Sins of Youth event, Graduation Day, etc. along with the 55 regular series issues.

    Agreed. They could even pad it (release a YJ V0, too) with some pre-YJ appearances of the main characters. The '96 World's Finest mini where Tim and Connor meet, Arrowette's first appearance in Impulse, etc., etc.

    Thank you for posting the photos as I was getting concerned that DC may not end the run.
