    The Deluxe simply removed Batman's text in one section to cut down the repetition a little. Batman still repeats the text in question overall in the arc though. The Deluxe made the right choice, but actually added introductory stuff like credits and "I am..." Part X in each issue that kinda obscured the art vs the original softcover.

    I can't blame King for his repetitious **** writing, but the title's editor should have have canned awhile ago.

    Looks like you might need an editor yourself there, Slick

    Anyone know if The Fourth World Omnibus will have everything, or will it be necessary to get the Mr. Miracle tpb?

    Do we know how many of the Rebirth Deluxe HCs have been cancelled? Just Aquaman and Green Arrow?

    Also, has the Aquaman by Johns Omni been canned or just pushed back?

    I want to say Hal Jordan and the Green Lanterns also got axed, but I'm no for certain. And I haven't heard much more on the Johns Aquaman Omni. Maybe they tuna canned that

    Deluxes getting axed, sadly, I'm gonna view that as a good sign.

    DC needs to stay committed to softcovers and regular cheaper editions.

    The Button needs a softcover and the Batman Deluxe shouldn't have been the place to correct King's little changes...do it in the first softcovers.

    The Johns Aquaman omnibus has been removed like 2 or 3 times. Indigo hasn't cancelled my preorder but it's listed as coming out in 2035..

    Going to have to disagree.

    They are a business and should be catering to everyone - both soft cover fans and fans of OHCs.

    For me, there is absolutely zero point to upgrading from standard issues to trades or cheap softcovers. When I buy a collected edition, I want an upgrade, so it's OHC or nothing. If DC dont provide that, they dont get my money.
