How many issues of the Superman by Tomasi omni are actually drawn by Gleason?
Does anyone know if, in addition to fixing the misspelled creator names and pages missing dialogue, they've corrected the issue ordering in the new printing of the Morrison Superman Omnibus?
Undecided if I want the Superman omni.
Unlike Batman and Robin, Superman was published bi-weekly during the Tomasi/Gleason run, which made it impossible for Gleason to draw most issues, so he rotated with Doug Mahnke, Jorge Jiménez (before he had to leave to draw Super Sons) and others. Also, during their second year, there were at least two arcs where Gleason was the primary writer instead of Tomasi, which took up a lot of his time and prevented him from resuming artistic duties until the "Bizarroverse" arc (issues #42-45) at the end.

I'm baffled by how DC makes some of its decisions (besides the almighty $):
I remember being a little disappointed when the King Batman Deluxe eds. switched to the different paper in Vol. 4. Not a big deal though (though some people lost their minds at the both the different paper and the different colored spines on the dust jackets).
Moving along, it looks as if there are no plans to finish that series off in OHC. You could plug the gap w/ what Vol.11 or something of the trades and then the City of Bane (standard) HCs (or the Complete Collection TPB), but, again, doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
In any case, the whole reason for this post is because as I was flipping through the Fables Compendium 2, I thought to myself "Is this the same paper type as Comp. 1?" And, sure enough, the paper is different -- not as glossy. Funny thing is that, despite having the lower page count, Comp. 2 is thicker than Comp. 1.
I don't collect nearly as much DC as other brands, but it's almost as if DC actively looks for ways to annoy its fan base.
My copy of "Batman Golden Age 9" just arrived and it contains:
Batman #76-85
Detective Comics #192-210
Worlds Finest #63-70
Introduction by Mike W. Barr
Therefore the next volume (either GA 10 or SA 1) would start with Batman #86 (Batman: Indian Chief) and Detective Comics #211 (The Jungle Cat Queen)

I ordered it from Speedyhen who must have received copies early
Does the cover match the other 8 volumes or did DC Collected Editions mess up and do that third cover design for the dust jacket?
Pic please?
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" - Optimus Prime
The dustjacket is the same as volume 8 - so the cover and spine match the previous volumes while the back cover has pics of the comics inside

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?
