    No. I'd guess if we see one at all it'll be next spring - I wonder if the Savage Velocity took Waid v7's place (that is, if they hadn't done the Baron collection, they'd have done Waid v7 instead).

    Really hoping DC doesn't pull their usual shenanigans and stop at the one yard line.

    Waid Volume 7 is listed in the same Edelweiss catalog as Savage Velocity:
    https://www.edelweiss.plus/#catalogID=4387556&page=2

    It says it “Includes Flash #142-150, Flash Secret Files, Speed Force, Flash 80-Page Giant.” So not officially solicited yet but not forgotten or anything. The for sale date listed on edelweiss is May 19, 2020.

    EDIT - just realized that bob/.schoonover was the one who posted about the Waid Volume 7 in the first place; maybe he forgot about it between then and his response above

    Some interesting tidbits:

    Flash by Waid v7 (142-150), leaving just one more volume to wrap up his run and get to Johns

    Ha, you’re preaching to the choir! Getting old is indeed a pain. But I find I’m forgetful enough that I can get pleasantly surprised at the same news multiple times, so there is a bright side to it.

    I'd be curious too as I loved Perez vol 1 (my WW introduction) and am getting 2 and 3. It seems like Loeb's run isn't really collected though?

    Sorry for the random question, but were there ever any collections of “Action Comics Weekly”? I remember these as a kid but it was hard to keep up because I didn’t always have the money every week or I couldn’t get to the comic shop every week. But when I did it was one of my favorite things because of the variety and mutipart stories. Not sure a collected edition would have the same impact or if any of these stories were any good but thought I’d ask.

    The Superman part is collected in the Power within TPB, The Nightwing part is collected in the Nightwing Old friends, new Enemies TPB. As far as I know the rest of the stories is uncollected. I really hope the John Stewart Green Lantern part will be collected at some point.

    The back 1/3 of his run was collected as the Wonder Woman by Mike Deodato trade a couple of years ago.

    Quite a slap in the face imho, as Loebs wrote all the issues therein and created Artemis, who's arc is the focus of the book.

    That does seem a bit off...

    Yes, vol.3 came out in the last few weeks. The prices aren't bad and I love Byrne typically but I might hold out for an omni given these are standard size. Thanks for the info.

    I might pick up this sampler but would really like to see a proper Sgt. Rock omnibus.
