My buddy badly wants this when he saw it on Dicks blog

Yeah! So cool. Thanks.

I really like it. Looks like all the Black Hand stuff, Batman and Son, and Batman Inc into three vols. If DC ever decides to do it, I'm sure it would be two or three volumes following the format closely.

Yeah, I've done the Morrison run a few times for folks; story-wise it makes most sense as three volumes (one volume through RIP, one for B&R/ROBW, one for Inc)

Can I ask, what was the coolest thing you've seen? Like what item could you not believe you were holding and excited just looking at?

my gahd these are beautiful. I wish there would be a consistent size to do a perfect binding of these. Even if it's only standard size. The problem is mainly INC because obviously I would prefer the redrawn pages by Burnham but those only exist in the absolute.

Reading though, I see a lot of you guys want Morrison's Batman in deluxe or omnibus form but, personally, I would like them to finish off the series in Absolutes as I have 3/4 of his run in that format. Anyone else feel that way?

Amazon now state the recently announced Abnett/Lanning Legion Lost : the Complete Saga, initially due in June 2017, is now expected on January 1st 2035 and unorderable.
Does this smell of cancellation?
Sad news if so, I was looking forward to it.

The catalogue says it's cancelled. Which they might as well do, because I wasn't going to buy a collection of a run that starts with its third issue.

I had to talk someone out of doing a bind using CGC'd copies of Fantastic Four #11, 25, and 26. That was pretty unbelievable

^^^^
WOW, good for you to talk some reason into them. Those issues can be found and read in many formats. You did right by them steering them away from a bind like that of single issues from that key run of early Silver Age FF.

Hadn't noticed the run was incomplete. We can hope they'll resollicit the right stuff then.

Dang it. I really wanted that. Widening Rifts is way to expensive to get physical copies of.

I just found this one on twitter. Lovely cover to the absolute edition of Wonder Woman.

like seriously, isn't there a way to just don't pay him royalties? Or would that still not be enough? I'm honestly a bit torn on this subject since I obviously don't want to support criminals but if the work is not tainted by his aberrations and he doesn't get money then why not have the books? That's surely something to meditate on.
