It was the sort of mission Batman had run a thousand times. From high above the sweltering summer streets of Gotham, Batman would escort the GCPD as the dangerous metahuman supervillain known as E.M.P. was transferred from a temporary holding cell to his permanent home at Blackgate Prison in Gotham Harbor. E.M.P.’s electrical powers posed a dangerous threat, but the situation was well in hand. Until it wasn’t. Now every light in Gotham is out, the police have been knocked into disarray, and a broken, bleeding Batman must fight his way to Blackgate, block by block, dragging E.M.P. behind him. But it’s not just the gangs who want to make life difficult for him. The dark corners of Gotham contain many surprises…and E.M.P. has many more shocks to deliver before the night is through! One of the most iconic Batman artists of the 21st century, the incomparable Jock (The Batman Who Laughs, Batman: The Black Mirror), has focused all his storytelling powers on the tale of one very, very dark night in Gotham City. It’s always darkest before the dawn—if it ever comes… Collects Batman: One Dark Knight #1-3.

From superstar writer/artist Sean Murphy comes the second thrilling chapter in the White Knight saga. After the events of Batman: White Knight, The Joker is behind bars, the Bat-Family has integrated Batman’s mobile arsenal into the GTO, and Harley Quinn has moved on with her life. But unbeknownst to them, the Clown Prince of Crime still has an ace up his sleeve: he knows a dark secret about the Wayne family that threatens to change their legacy! To help even the playing field, The Joker recruits his own avenging angel, Azrael, to carry out this final act of revenge. Will Gotham City burn under the sword of Azrael, and will the Wayne name forever be tainted? This deluxe edition of the acclaimed story collects the entire eight-issue series as well as the Batman: White Knight Presents Von Freeze one-shot written by Murphy and illustrated by Batman: The Dark Knight Returns inker Klaus Janson, and features a brand-new cover by Murphy.

If I want Wonder Woman Rebirth Deluxe Book 1, am I just going to have to fork out the ridiculous prices being asked? That’s the only way to read them collected in the intended order, and I’m already seriously frustrated at how hard it is to find Wonder Woman I like, let alone Wonder Woman I like that’s collected.

[Charliemouse]

I am sure it will get an omnibus eventually though with DC that still could be many years away.

Just received my copy of "Batman: The Dark Knight Detective Vol 6" and it contains Detective Comics 622-633

Edit - Issue 627 only includes the new material, not the reprints of Issues 27 & 387

50 dollars for 280 pages? Ahaha I don't think so.

^^^^^
That is of course MSRP.

Raise your hand, anyone in the book buying game, if you get your books without a discount? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller.....

Those interested will find it for something like $36-38 somewhere.

Pretty much every book I buy is for cover price, or just slightly below. But never as good as a 40-50% discount.

DCBS and Instocktrades are your friends...

Well, when you factor in the absurdly high shipping costs (it's gotten much higher over the years) and the customs fees, I am basically paying cover price. Still, I tend to buy the really big books from IST, just to make sure they arrive in pristine condition. Seriously, you should have seen the latest one. 3 omnis in a box that could have easily fit 10+ books and still have enough room for padding.

Ooh, apologies. I didn't realize you are not in the U.S. That makes more sense.

Yeah, I tend not to think about the fact that I could be getting almost twice the amount of books for the same money if only I lived in the US, it just makes me sad

Well you probably have twice the amount of space too, so... silver lining?
