DC Hardcover Collected Editions Part 3

[The Lucky One]

Excellent! Thanks for posting that.

That does leave the real question though. Is GA Batman done or is there a volume 10 before the SA series starts?
What are most thinking?

World’s Finest: The Silver Age Omnibus volume 1 starts (not counting Superman #76) with WF#71, the first issue where Supes and Bats team up in the actual story, as opposed to just on the cover. GA Batman volume 9 contains the Batman stories from World’s Finest up through WF #70.

Unlike Wonder Woman, there’s no clear Golden/Silver Age demarcation line for Batman or (to a lesser extent) Superman. So my guess is DC has decided to use WF #70 and 71 as an artificial line, and the next Batman volume will be Silver Age volume 1. I could be wrong, but that’s where I’d put my money.

There's been a lot of discussion going on over on the MMW board about if DC will do a Batman Golden Age volume 10 or now move on to a Silver Age volume 1

https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/marv...go-t33638.html

There's arguments for both, however personally I don't mind which "age" they list the next volume as - as long as they get it out ASAP so we can finally start on the Bronze Age!

Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane is a place of dismal corridors and oppressive shadows—a dark riddle in stone and timber, best left unsolved. Within its claustrophobic walls, the demented and deformed enemies of the Batman brood in padded cells and unlit cellars, dreaming of a day when they might rise up and overthrow the world of reason. That day has finally come.
It is April 1, and the lunatics have taken over the asylum. Led by The Joker, Arkham’s inmates issue a terrible ultimatum to the man responsible for their imprisonment. The Batman must descend into this heart of darkness, confront his greatest foes, and face the truth of his own divided identity—or condemn himself to share their fate.

All six volumes of Saga of the Swamp Thing by Alan Moore, the writer of Watchmen and V for Vendetta, in one gorgeous slipcase box set!
Before Watchmen, Alan Moore made his debut in the U.S. comic book industry with the revitalization of the horror comic book Saga of the Swamp Thing. His deconstruction of the classic monster stretched the creative boundaries of the medium and became one of the most spectacular series in comic book history. With real-life issues explored against a backdrop of horror, Swamp Thing’s stories became commentaries on environmental, political, and social issues, unflinching in their relevance.
Created out of the swamp by a freak accident, Swamp Thing is an elemental creature who uses the forces of nature and wisdom of the plant kingdom to fight the polluted world’s self-destruction.
Alan Moore took Swamp Thing to new heights in the 1980s with his unique narrative approach. His provocative and groundbreaking writing, combined with masterly artwork by some of the medium’s top artists, made Swamp Thing one of the great comics of the 20th century.
