    Hi, guys!

    Somebody know how many pages has the first hardcover volume of All-Star Batman? Good Reads says 192, Comixology says 190 and Amazon says 160.

    Thanks!

    October is going to be hard on a lot of us - they were also talking about it on the Facebook page. I've got a bunch of books planned to order.

    Swamp Thing Bronze Age Omni is the only one I will get ASAP. So excited for that. Great job by DC. About time.
    Things I love: Batman, Superman, AEW, old films, Lovecraft

    Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”

    I pre-ordered that on amazon for like 100 dollars cannot wait 2,500+ pages and I think it is like 5 HC volumes great deal for it all. Really wish marvel's boxsets would be more in this range and actually be a great deal for a long story.

    Bump. C'mon, i know somebody has these collections...

    I would recommend getting the complete Fugitive/Murderer collections. Great run of stories by Dixon, Rucka, and Brubaker. And then Batman by Brubaker Vol 1, combined with the New Gotham trades that are being released by Rucka(Vol 1 is already out, vol 2 is forthcoming), will give you a good feeling for early 2000s Batman.

    I'm interested in these. Could you give me the TPB reading order so I know which ones to purchase?

    Mighty Thor vol.3 Silver Age has been my most wanted Omnibus since Vol 2 hit the stands. The only book I'm looking forward to as much is the final Invincible OHC that should be out next year to wrap up the series. I'm against 1,000 page books in general but the fact that Marvel may never do a vol 4 and that this will actually finish the Stan Lee run makes this a welcome exception. So pumped for this.
