DC Hardcover Collected Editions Part 3

[Brian]

If any of you were thinking of getting the Brightest Day/Blackest Night box set due out this week, you should know that DC has recalled it. From Comiclist:

DC has recalled the Blackest Night Brightest Day Box Set that has already been shipped to retailers for 11/17 release due to potential faulty glue/binding that may at some point fall apart. Retailers have been asked to not sell this item.

Being that they're not giving much of a discount on it, I bet that listing JSA vol 2 Omni is legit.

The game-changing Batman epic returns in a new deluxe edition hardcover! As the second person to assume the role of Batman’s sidekick, Jason Todd had a completely different personality than the original Robin. Rash and prone to ignore Batman’s instructions, Jason was always quick to act without regard to consequences. This story put Jason’s fate in the readers’ hands—who voted whether or not Robin should live or die at the hands of The Joker. This tale of loss, guilt, and brutality stands as one of the most defining pieces of the Dark Knight’s mythology. Collects Batman #426-429 and #440-442, The New Teen Titans #60-61, plus several never-before-published pages that show what would have happened if Jason Todd had lived!

This is silly. Why not also include Heaven's Ladder? Or hell, just make a Waid omni and include Midsummer and the rest of the Hitch run too??

Does the Morrison omni contain the (I forget the exact title) pre-JLA #1 story where they fight Starro? An 80 page giant or Secret files or something..

DC did a stealth reprint. People have been talking about it over on the Facebook Omnibus groups.

!!

I’m not on Facebook so this is the first I’m hearing of it; the JSA omnis are the white whale of my collection so this is like Christmas morning. Thank you all for bringing this to my attention.

When DC was being distributed by Diamond, they usually updated retailers when books came back into print. This would in turn may it's way into the public domain through Comiclist and others. Unfortunately this seems to have stopped since DC left Diamond, so it's harder to get this information.
