DC Hardcover Collected Editions Part 3

[poolovision]

With the DC modern classics solicitied for early next year, starting with Watchmen and TDKR, if the sales are good and this line continues what other storys are likely to be collected in this format?

These will be standard size yes? I still need to upgrade those from my very old German versions and it seems like a nice way to do it, but OHC would be nice. Otherwise I will buy the more recent OHC versions.

Does Deluxe Edition automatically mean that the book will be oversized?

All Deluxes should be oversized, yes.

Received my Infinite Crisis Omnibus today. This thing is monstrously huge. I look forward to reading it despite knowing very little about the story (other than “Sacrifice” which I read a few years ago digitally.) Many here said they’d enjoyed it, so despite my preference of late-Silver and Bronze Age material over more modern comics, I decided to take a chance.

I just opened my IST order with Infinite Crisis. Going to crack it open shortly and check it out.

I relaxed the spine on mine just now. Looks solid.

I planned to just flip through and ended up reading 4-5 issues which I was really enjoying. Looking forward to getting more into it.

Infinite Crises all round, mine arrived yesterday

I just ordered Batman by Doug Moench & Kelley Jones vol 2, despite not having vol 1. I hope this wasn’t a mistake. Vol 1 is out of stock seemingly everywhere (or being sold above cover price), which seems like a huge oversight on DC’s part when releasing a follow up volume.

Was it a Hardcover or a TPB? I seem to recall conflicting solicits for that one...?

I have vol. 1 HC, and if vol. 2 is going to be paperback only, I'll probably hold off in the hopes that vol. 1 is reprinted in paperback as well.

It definitely looks like Hardcover, fortunately. Below is a link to it on IST:

I may put my order in tomorrow.

Vol. 2 is also a hardcover.

Those Moench/Jones Batman stories were my first superhero comics that I bought when they got out in Germany in the late 90s I think. Those issues got lost in moves and while I took a long break from collecting. I am so happy that I have them available in 2 hcs. I can't talk about these without a very very great love. To me those stories and the horroresque artwork are just beyond. Maybe a reason why vol 1 is hard to find is the long time in between the two books? Also it seems to be rather common nowadays with Hickvangers 1 E. G. I hope you find a copy!

Great, thanks!

You know those early DC solicits can't be trusted...

I’ve read about 350 pages from the Infinite Crisis Omnibus. Modern books are a much faster read for me than the older books.

I’m just not quite sure how anything I’ve read so far ties into a “Crisis” style event, and with what HAS been referenced so far, why Identity Crisis wasn’t included (not that I liked that very much.)

Anyway, I am liking it so far, but nothing Crisis-worthy in my opinion (yet.) And I really like the thicker stock of paper DC uses in their Omnibus releases compared to Marvel.
