Geoff Johns brought new life to the Flash and his Rogues during his years writing the Scarlet Speedster, and this omnibus collects the second half of his stint on the series, highlighted by the onslaught of new nemesis Hunter Zolomon—a.k.a. Zoom!
This collection also includes a trip to Gorilla City, turmoil among the Rogues, and a meet-up with Wonder Woman, as the Cheetah and Zoom team up against our heroes! It all leads to “Rogue War,” as the Flash’s greatest enemies battle each other, and Zoom’s final—and very personal attack—against Wally! Collects The Flash #192-225, Wonder Woman #214, and The Flash: The Secret of Barry Allen #1.

Good news. The third omni should collect then:

DC Universe #0: "Let There Be Lightning" (with Grant Morrison)
Flash: Rebirth #1–6 (2009–2010)
The Flash: Secret Files and Origins #1 (2010)
The Flash vol. 3, #1–12 (2010–2011)
Flashpoint #1–5 (2011)

or perhaps I miss something?

Does this 3rd Batman by Morrison Omnibus have all the same contents of the Absolute Batman Incorporated? Also is it delayed?

Add in Final Crisis: Rogues' Revenge #1 to 3 before Rebirth and Blackest Night: The Flash #1 to 3 afterwards, and I think that's everything.

Good call on the DC Universe #0 story too. I forgot about that one.

It'd be cool if they did like the Morrison Batman omnis and included some interstitial material to explain Barry's role in Final Crisis and Blackest Night

I’m all over that Geoff Johns Flash v2 omni, but this is where I’d jump off. Flash volume two #225 is, for me, the last time we had a must-read Flash comic.

The current Flash rebirth has been almost as great as the Geoff Johns run, its due to end in Oct when Josh Willamson leaves the book.

Yeah I’ve been reading it. I personally wouldn’t hold it in such lofty esteem, but it’s mostly been a solid ride. Certainly better than Bart’s short lived takeover, Waid and Johns’ second stints, or the New 52.

Sounds good, love the content.....I'm going to have to get this one.

Should have been 2 volumes

Did GMo write all those one million one shots

Looks like Morrison didn't write them all. I only looked up two of them (Starman & Resurrection Man). Starman was written by Robinson, while Resurrection Man was written by Abnett/Lanning.

IMO, it would've been better if they only included the One Million issues written by Morrison, and put in Tower of Babel rather than the non-Morrison One Million one-shots, but oh well.

I think they're only including these issues because they're pretty critical to the plot of the Main DC One Million issues that Morrison did write. Which makes it weirder that this wasn't just a complete, multi-volume omnibus series.

Does this 3rd Batman by Morrison Omnibus have all the same contents of the Absolute Batman Incorporated? Also is it delayed?

I'd bet my life it will match the Absolute contents as far as the definitive edits and recolors, the definitive version/vision. Amazon doesn't show a delay for it, so I don't think so. But my LCS hasn't got it yet, but that may not be due to DC delay exactly.

It's annoying how they're doing the Waid volume. Why not just include his entire run in one big deluxe, including the Hitch stuff (especially Heaven's Ladder)?

Normal me would say due to marketing. They focused on the Tower of Babel title as a more familiar one, but it is DC comics after all, so on the other hand the Meltzer Deluxe includes stories also written by Dwayne McDuffie.

Collected editions dept. is till messy, but let's be patient. Recent Changes in Morrisons Omni indicates that someone is trying to make the upcoming editions more logical.

I looked on Amazon, and, if the description for omnibus vol 3 is accurate, it's the exact same content as the absolute.

I already have the absolute (Which I prefer), so I'll pass on that omnibus.

I think someone said it got delayed a week or two.
