    My Golden Age Wonder Woman Omnibus volume 4 is on
    It’s way. I am really interested in seeing how the
    Content has grown compared to earlier issues.
    If I like it, I will order volume 3

    I saw what they did to the reprint of Superman, that was just dumb, I agree, the way they did it with Wonder Woman V. 4 is the best of both worlds, kind of reminds me of a Marvel Omnibus, which to me is not too bad.

    I'm relieved they backed off on the sheer stupidity that was that new spine.

    So I picked up the JL Origin deluxe that came out last week. Between this and the the Darkseid War omnibus, that leaves issues 13-39 of New 52's JL uncollected in oversized format. I'd be happy if we got a Forever Evil omnibus that collected the remaining JL 13-39 issues, the FE mini, and other necessary tie ins. Maybe the A.R.G.U.S mini, and the JLA and Suicide Squad tie ins. Would come in around 52 issues I think.

    (I doubt it will happen, honestly)

    I suppose you could also have a Throne of Atlantis/Trinity War deluxe, collecting JL 13-23 and the other tie ins, then have the Forever Evil omnibus start with JL 24

    I recently got Absolute All-Star Superman and noticed the binding is a lot tighter than usual.
    If i compare it to Absolute Watchmen, the pages lay flat, while for this the pages curve out.
    There's also no "eye" in the binding.
    I'm wondering if previous printings are like this too? I have the 4th printing.

    I really like how the deluxe edition is built, with the little canvas touch and the dustcover, and it's also a bit sad/nostalgic to see the "Vertigo" dropped.
    But man, that oversized art does look gorgeous, and the design is pretty slick, I really like when the "absolute" wording is kept to a minimum, like in All-Star Superman or this one.

    I was pretty sure I didn't want to upgrade, but I'm not so sure now.

    I'll be happy when they collect these Batman: The Dark Knight Detective paperbacks into some Omnis.

    Hell yes. Judging by the listing of the contents for that Geoff Johns Volume 2 Omnibus, that’s the entirety of the original three omni’s! Next volume will be all new stuff!

    My version is the 2nd printing. There is a definite "eye" in the binding and pages are flat.
    Comparing it to my Absolute Watchmen (6th Printing), they seem the same.

    I looked up some older youtube reviews of the book, and they all open up as how you describe it.
    Something must have changed with this 4th printing. Its not disastrous but just a little disappointing.

    About two years ago, DC solicited a JSA hardcover with the stuff collected above and the ‘92 Straz/Parobeck series, one of my favorite short runs of all time. They canceled the book, and it’s now repackaged without the ‘92 series. I’m gutted.

    That's cool. Who's shipping new omnibus at this point?

    Anything that shipped the week of March 25th to resellers you can still get through IST, CGN, etc. But they will not be able get new books with a scheduled release after that until restrictions are eased and Diamond can supply our preferred ordering outlet. Amazon’s supply of new releases remains to be seen, though.
