DC Hardcover Collected Editions Part 3

[Seeker]

Is the new Jonah Hex HC worth getting? Never read anything like it. Not sure how it’s aged. For those who are familiar with it, could you offer your opinions? Thanks in advance.

UPS just brought mine from IST this afternoon. While I can't comment on how the writing has aged, the production and presentation of the book looks great. Nice design, nice paper, and as a blind buy, is something I'm looking forward to diving into.

Is anyone reading any current books? ("current") is Justice League Odyssey any good? Love Abnett on Earth2 he did a few years back and of course his Aquaman run(even if the ending was... Wavey). Curious about this JL title.

yeah great book. nothing groundbreaking but some really exciting moments especially if you're a fan of Cyborg or Jessica Cruz.

i'm not a fan of team books that shake up the roster more than a few times. JLO unfortunately does that. the story is consistent and engaging though, so I'd say it's worth a grab.

Agree with the above. I'm really enjoying it - first time I've been impressed by someone augmenting a Morrison concept. It's a lot of fun.

My favorite format depends, in general I prefer the Omnibus, more bang for your buck but if it is an artist I particularly love, say Ivan Reis on Sinestro Corps War or Jim Lee X-Men XXL or even a Perez on COIE then the absolute version where it just seems like you are getting more detail just more in general is my preference.

The Ennis Hellblazer Omni came in and out of stock at IST in record time. They had it for just a couple days before it went unavailable. I'm sure they'll get more soon, or not so soon, but still, everything is so precarious right now.

Thanks to you and Bob Schoonover! It sounded like a real interesting concept, I'll have to check it out. Much LIKE Abnetts other work, I doubt it'll be collected in a better, neater collection.

Any word on those DC collected editions that were cancelled this time last year? I really wanted the Justice League of America Bronze Age Omnibus to continue, since it just got into the heart of the "satellite era".

Bronze Age Brave and Bold Vol. 3 is finally resolicited for later in the year.

No word on JLA BA - just the Wedding HC that was recently released. I picked it up but would buy the larger omni if there was a double dip opportunity.

Jonah Hex just landed as well. Highly recommend it even if it's not in my preferred Omnibus format.

Any rumblings of The Unwritten deluxe series continuing? If Animal Man and Jack of Fables can be finished, I’m hoping that one picks back up too.

There's nothing in DC's latest Edelweiss catalogue, which covers up to the end of January next year.

Personally, I think it's very unlikely they'll restart these reprints in the forseeable future. While Animal Man and JoF have lengthy gaps between volumes, they have been published as solicited (so far anyway, in the case of Animal Man). OTOH, DC ended up cancelling the second deluxe for Unwritten before publication, presumably due to low orders. I can't see them resoliciting it again.

If sales on the Lucifer omnis are good, we might, just might, see an Unwritten Omnibus series at some point. But that's pure speculation on my part.

Anyone got pics?
