Dial H is getting a Deluxe edition? Of all the New 52 series..it's that one? Hmmm.
I'm interested in
Absolute Transmetropolitan (how many volumes will sixty issues require?)
America vs Justice Society
Neal Adams Batman omni
Blue Devil Showcase
I think they will do it in 3 or 4 volumes. The last time they did a big serie in Absolute (Sandman), they did more than 75 issues in 4 volumes with the biggest volumes having 20 issues. So they could do Transmetropolitan in 3 volumes (20 each) but they can also go ffor 15 issues a volume which happens more often with Absolutes. It can go either way. Or Dc can screw us and only put in 10 issues a volume of course

Thanks for the info. Three or four volumes is reasonable. No way I'd be paying Absolute prices for six ten-issue volumes.
Oh wow. They're finally collecting Millar's Swamp Thing.

The initial post has been updated to include some content info, including preliminary content for the second Geoff Johns Green Lantern Omnibus:
Green Lantern #26-52, Blackest Night #0-7, DC Universe #0, Untold Tales of Blackest Night #1-2, and Blackest Night: ales of the Corps #1-2. No, it doesn't have any Green Lantern Corps issues, but those were really a separate storyline from Green Lantern in Blackest Night. More notably missing is Final Crisis: Rage of the Red Lanterns, but I wouldn't be surprised if that eventually makes its way in.
That doesn't leave a huge amount for a Vol 3 does it? Unless of course Vol 3 includes the New 52 series?
Either way, I'm happy with this. I dropped the series shortly after Blackest Night, because it seemed to lose focus and just meander. Ending the second Omni at Blackest Night suits me nicely.
Well im gonna have to upgrade my tpbs of filth gothic and arkham aslyum now
Dial H and sandman overture deluxes are also buys
They're making me double dip quite a bit with deluxe editions of Mad Love, Batman: Gothic, Dial H, and The Filth.
I won't go for Absolute Y, though. I have the deluxe editions, and I just don't think it's that good to warrant the format.
Well, I've started the Animal Man omnibus. I just finished #5 (Coyote Gospel) and I must say, it's great! The omnibus itself has great paper and nice covers but the binding is bbad. I think it's worse than the Planetary omnibus, it's really tight. The binding of most of Dc's omnibi is why I don't buy a lot of them, and why I passed on the Doom Patrol omni even tough I wanted it very badly (I found the price to be bad but I was still thinking about buying it untill I heard of the bad binding). Nontheless, Animal Man is a great story so far and $75 is a very reasonable price
