Did V3 not sell well? I'll be devastated if we don't get V4.

The first three volumes are on their second printing, while the upcoming Volume 4 of Teen Titans will be it’s first. That makes me think it’s a safe bet it will come out as advertised.

Is this run considered pretty solid?

[My Two Cents]

I ordered it because I love Batman and enjoy most of Snyder’s
Earlier Batman work. For me Snyder is better at the on going
Journey than he is in working out the solution for each story:
His stories are told in arcs that can run a chunk of issues and
Be wordy (compared to many 5 minutes single issue stories).
The beautiful art just makes this purchase for me a no brainer.

When Snyder burst onto the scene with both American Vampire and his Tec run (Black Mirror), I couldn’t get enough of his work. But he has certain tics and quirks that you can’t unsee once you notice them (as well as the aforementioned problems with sticking the landing of many of his arcs), so I’ve had trouble reading his stuff for awhile. I feel similarly about his interviews (when discussing whatever work he is promoting, they all tend to be variations of “This is the biggest, craziest, most insane story that’s ever been done, but it’s really personal too”) I can’t praise Capullo’s work in that omni enough though; it’s gorgeous.

But many many folks adore that whole run and rank it highly, so what do I know? If you can get it at a good price, I’m sure you’ll at least enjoy it enough to not feel cheated by the purchase. As for me, nothing he did with Batman ever topped The Black Mirror.

Dick Grayson, what are your thoughts on his current run on JL?

Thanks for posting. I'm glad it's consistent with the previous ones.

Received my Batman by Snyder and Capullo today.

This may seem like a silly question but is there a safe way to stretch the spine of a DC Omni w/o damaging it?

I ask b/c this thing does not sit flat. It does not form an "eye" when opened up and the book really has some gutter loss issues.

I was really looking forward to the oversized presentation but after flipping through today, I'm not sure if I want to keep this or just stick with the smaller hardcovers from a few years back.

I haven’t read it yet, but do plan to at some point. How do you feel about it?

This is a good primer on how to condition a spine when you first open a big book. As for gutter loss, it depends on how DC bound the book. I don't have it so I can't speak to that one.

Yeah, I'd like to know as well.
This Snyder/Capullo Omni does look tempting, but I don't know much about this Batman run.
Also, is this Omni self-contained, or will it require a second volume?

Snyder's run will run to at least a second volume. He and Capullo ran through 52, then there is enough material for a companion omni, too
