    In Stock Trades has this gorgeous Gail Simone Wonder Woman Omnibus. Any thoughts? I loved the Perez Book, I am reading the Jimenez book, and that cover is amazing!

    Indeed, it truly was. I believe that was when we also had that Pfeifer/Alvarez run on Catwoman, Bryan Q Miller's run on Batgirl, and The Web (An underrated 10-issue series connected to the Bat-titles). Also, Red Robin wasn't bad......Combine those with Morrison's Batman run and Dini's Detective run, and it was a magical time for the Bat-titles that'll never be paralleled.

    I'm so looking forward to Dini's Detective Comics omnibus.

    Don’t forget Tomasi’s Nightwing too!

    lol, I wasn't a fan of Tomasi's Nightwing (Nor Tomasi's work in general).....I far preferred that Dixon/Land run from the 90s, with Dick in Bludhaven and Blockbuster being the mob boss extraordinaire.

    Dixon’s is definitely the best Nightwing run ever, no question, but I found Tomasi’s to be very enjoyable, especially after all the lackluster runs in between.

    I have always enjoyed any Batman Family series
    Dixon has written.

    The first part of the Morrison/Dini era had Dixon's (very short) return to Robin, too, which I enjoyed. I wouldn't hate a Robin 170-end + Red Robin omnibus to sit on the shelves next to the Dini and Morrison ones

    It's great! Between that Simone omni, the 3 Perez volumes, the Jimenez one and the Azzarello/Chiang one, Wonder Woman has some great omnibus volumes available for her best material.
    I think one by Byrne is coming out too, but I'm not familiar with his run on WW.

    Wow, I seriously gave up on it. With current DC policies I won't get my hopes up but it's still something. Thanks for sharing I didn't know about that.

    From Amazon listing it turns out that SECRET ORIGINS #39 is out though. Compared to omni.

    I forgot about that. I actually thought that late Dixon run on Robin was his best work, and it's a shame it didn't go on longer.

    Tying that in with Red Robin for an omnibus would be great, although I doubt DC will put that together.

    Was Nancy Collins swamp thing any good? I read it as it was coming out but for the life of me I can’t remember a thing about it, I do remember I dropped the title in the early 100’s because the art became absolutely atrocious (can’t remember who it was or who was writing it at the time)

    I really like it.

    She actually posted some pics on Twitter of the book, it looks great!

    I've never read, that I can recall, the Collins Swamp Thing material but will be getting it regardless.
    Fan of the character and reduced Omnis by DC of late has me for sure getting it.

    Jack of Fables deluxe vol 3 released this week, I didn’t even know this was coming. Glad they are finishing the series, gives me hope for more vertigo deluxes.
