    CGN has it for 8/25, so I assume it's just been pushed back a week

    The covers for most of the September collections have been updated on the Edelweiss site. Here are some of next month's omnis:

    Legion of Super-Heroes: Five Years Late Vol 1


    Green Arrow: Longbow Hunters Saga Vol 1


    Wrath of the Spectre Omnibus


    The Batman GA Omnibus Vol 8 seems to be the only book that doesn't have a finalised cover yet, but I wouldn't read too much into that. The others were only updated yesterday, so there could be just a delay with the last one.

    And here's another omni and a long sought for deluxe.

    Animal Man by Grant Morrison Deluxe Edition Vol 2 (Interesting that they retained the DC Vertigo logo for this book)


    Batman by Paul Dini Omnibus

    Dang, as disappointed as I am that they're not including Waid's issues, it's super cool that they're including all of the relevant DC One Million content. I've always considered that an essential part of Morrison's run. This Omnibus is going to be gigantic. I hope they don't cancel the deluxe version of Waid's fill-in issues and Tower of Babel. If they follow that up with another deluxe or a little Omni of the rest of Waid's run, I'll be pretty happy.

    It seems that your wish will be fulfilled. The Tower of Babel Deluxe will include Waid's earlier issues, at least at the moment.

    'JLA: The Tower of Babel The Deluxe Edition also includes earlier JLA stories written by Waid, including a space-faring mission guest-starring Adam Strange, and the Justice League investigating mysterious destruction in Gotham City. Plus, it's gorilla warfare in a story by Len Kaminski and Jason Orfalas--the start of the aptly named "JLApe" event, where the JLA members are transformed into apes!

    This volume collects JLA #18-21, #32-33, #43-46, and JLA Annual #3.'

    I had missed the Tower of Babel Deluxe news. Nice! I’m all over that.

    And Morrison’s JLA, of course.

    Yeah, I originally didn't plan to buy this omnibus, as I figured it was simply Morrison's JLA run.....But all those other issues added in? It's a must-grab for me, especially as a Morrison fan.

    To clarify, the other issues still won’t be in the omni. You’ll have to get the Tower of Babel deluxe and the Omni. Still will be missing an issue or two. I will get the Omni now as I can fill most of the gap with the deluxe.

    Bleh, that JLA omni/deluxe collection is not ideal to me at all. Good bit of double dipping if you own the Earth 2 deluxe and DC One Million omnibus already. And what's up with 27, 35, and 42 missing? And the rest of Waid's run? I would have really preferred if they had collected it chronologically in 25-30 issue chunks(which would collect the entirety of the series in about 4 books) and not broken it up like this. I'm on the fence for both right now.
