DC Hardcover Collected Editions Part 3

[JCinOntario]

Any thoughts on the Garth Ennis Hellblazer? I am loving the Collins Swamp Thing. I read Veitchs Maxi-Mortal and his sidekicks book. Truly strange stuff I want to read his Swamp Thing! He’s a real creator!

Just ordered on IST. It’ll look weird on the shelf next to the TPBs but I’m a sucker for HC collections of any vertigo book.

Odds on JSA Omni vol 2 going back into print?

It was first released over 5 years ago, so I'd say the chances of a reprint at this stage are slim enough tbh.

The comic store called me today, the book came in, so I was able to pick it up. It collects issues #1 - #26. Each story starts with the cover, there is some of the information from the oversized Super Friends comic where Wendy & Marvin meet the Justice League, there is a story called "Aquateers Meet The Super Friends". It also includes the letters columns for the first three issues. There were no letters at that time, so column #1 goes into the origins of Wendy (Harris) and Marvin (White). Column #2 discusses the Super Foes that appeared in the first two issues (The Penguin, Poison Ivy, Toyman, Cheetah, and Human Flying Fish). Column #3 discusses why the 5 original heroes were picked to be in The Super Friends.

Here is the back cover.





and here is what the inside looks like.

So I have the Detective Comics Rebirth Deluxe Edition v4 and the hardcovers from 994 on up. But DC hasn’t reprinted #983-993. Did I miss something?

Was that the James Robinson stuff? I would assume lack of interest in those post-Tynion, pre-Tomasi issues.

Those were filler arcs - a one off, then Bryan Hill's pre-Outsiders story, then a Robinson Two-Face story.

I'm currently reading (and enjoying) the 52 Omnibus, and I see a JLA by Brad Metlzer HC is coming out next month. I did a little research but it wasn't clear; does this follow directly after the 52 omni issues?

More or less, yeah. It's the first JLA story post Infinite Crisis/52

Green Lantern: Circle of Fire: http://prhinternationalsales.com/boo...=9781779509055

According to PRH this new edition contains
Green Lantern #129-136, Green Lantern/Firestorm #1, Green Lantern/Adam Strange #1, Green Lantern/Atom #1, Green Lantern/Green Lantern #1, Green Lantern/Power Girl #1, and Green Lantern: Circle of Fire #1-2.

Vs The old TPB which had Green Lantern and Adam Strange #1, Green Lantern and Firestorm the Nuclear Man #1, Green Lantern and Green Lantern #1, Green Lantern and Power Girl #1, Green Lantern and the Atom #1, & Green Lantern: Circle Of Fire #1–2.

It looks like they are moving onto the Judd Winnick run for Kyle Rayner reprints (129-181 when the series ended), wonder if they will go back an finish off releasing the Marz & others issues from issue 66-128

Legion of Superheroes: Before the Darkness Vol 1

collects Legion of Super-Heroes #260-271and Secrets of the Legion of Super-Heroes #1-3.

Presumably there will a be a "Before the Darkness" Vol. 2, because the latest printing of "TGDS" starts with issue #284, and includes several prologue issues already...

So do mine!

[SJNeal]

Didio had made it clear that he didn't like high numbered trade volumes; with him gone, I don't see why they can't go back and release some of the previously solicited books that were canceled in recent years. Continue putting the number on the back cover as opposed to the spine, if that makes them feel better.

Granted, it's highly unlikely, but one can dream...
