As a huge DC fan who LOVES every single animated series and movie, it’s a shame that they haven’t been able to translate that special “sauce” from the animation into live action-except for the 4-hour Synder cut of JL, which I really liked. Now, at the age of 45 😂 and with disposable income that I’ve worked hard for over 15 years, I’ve finally decided to dive into a new realm: comics. I know I’m late to the game and still learning all the nuances of comics, tradebacks, single issues, and Omnis. I bought this one and the New 52 Omnibus (among sooooooo much more during the half-day I spent at the comic store), but these are currently the only two Omnis I have. The reason I liked this Omnibus is that it offers origin-like stories that a total newbie can start with, even though I’m already familiar with the majority of the characters. I still love this one, though. Even with the first one-shot stories, I appreciate that some of the artwork and narratives are different from all the DC content I’ve watched. For instance, I just finished the Wonder Woman story and was surprised-wow, this one is way older! It makes sense since her origin story rarely needs updates, but I was taken aback by the revelation that Ares trained her (I’m assuming), and she didn’t even know! 😮 Nonetheless, it portrayed Diana in her own “Year 1,” while she was still learning and young, which, to be honest, we haven’t really seen before. Yes, I know there are about four adaptations, but this collection explains so much more. Since I’m new to this and figuring out what I should collect, I might need some guidance. Please tell me the truth: is this Omnibus considered “not good” or one of the “weaker” ones? I know this was made a long time ago, but I hope to get a reply and some guidance. 😇 Thank you! 🙏
Try to break the spine in and show the book open from the side so we can see the eye of the binding to tell what kind of gutter loss to expect. Thanks for your video.
@maddevil7474 Absolutely will in future videos. I have in the past and just kind of get excited and forget. Thanks for being here and the reminder, I really do appreciate it. Stay awesome.
@bests88 Thank you for being here. I will make sure to show more pages in my next video, sorry about not showing enough. There a fine line between too many pages, spoiling the book, and not enough. Sorry and I'll keep it in mind for the next one.
@newspooiechannel Hi, thanks for being here. The binding looks completely glued. Sorry about not showing the eye after I busted it open. It's like the Red Hood hardcover but better than the old Hawkman Omni. I'll try to get me camera setup and more time the next video. Honestly I just wanted people to see it. Sorry about the poor job I did. Thanks for being here, I do appreciate you. Thanks again.
@OrangeGeemer Yeah, sorry about that. I'm slack af when it comes to showing everything. I promise I'll try to get all the information in there next time. Glued only binding, it's scary but seems better than some of the older DC omnis. Thanks again for being here, I really appreciate it.
@@newspooiechannel It is the exact same as the Red Hood omni, but the glue seems like better glue. We'll see after it gets read if it is better produced. I'll try to get more info in my next video. Thanks for being here, I do appreciate it.
Superman is my favorite comic character and I am so happy we are getting all these books this year. I ordered this, the Triangle era omnibus and the exile omnibus reprint. I’m eating well. Up, up and away!
Thanks for sharing. I was thinking about getting this, but wasnt sure about thr Absokute format. I really wanted to see if the Legion made the cover. I uktimately decided against it, as i wish it collected more of Johns run. I will probablt get it now though because i love the run and the Legion ive also bought more used Absolutes and it feels more like something I want to commit to
@adamcrouch5257 It's got a nice chunk of Legion and anytime John's and Frank are together , I consider it a predetermined hit. Maybe they'll do a complete Legion hardcover. Thanks for being here. Stay awesome!
I'm sure this is a great collection, I remember reading the monthlies, but I believe the actual 'Absolute Superman' is the one by Morrison and Quitely. They should just omit the 'All Star' from that title and that's it.
@MadThanos79 I love All Star Superman, great story, art and some great new takes on Superman. Proof that if a creator cares, the book will end up a classic. Good good stuff. Thanks for being here, I really appreciate it.
Don't raise the tripod, lower the table. Just joking. Thanks for the preview. I'm ordering this soon. I have most of the issues in singles, but I can't resist Gary Frank in over-sized editions. This one is just gorgeous.
@williamjackson6705 That's awesome, I tried so many lower tables, and I just chalked it up to, I need a better camera. Thanks for the laugh and being here. I've loved Gary Frank so much that I like his Gen13 run that gets a lot of grief. Thanks again for being awesome and fun. Rock on!
@1297skypred I think this is great book with a perfect beginning middle and end. The art is fantastic and the story told perfectly. Let me know if you read it.
@Martin_TheCollector Geoff John's is, I think, one of comics best writers, because he cares about comics and telling a great story with the characters he loves. Thanks for being here and stay awesome.
I have the singles. I had the trades, and gave them away when I got the compendiums. I can’t buy the collection AGAIN, but highly recommend it to anybody who hasn’t read it. In my top ten post 2000 titles.
In my opinion Simone has terrible political/social views, but so do Mark Waid and dozens of others. Fortunately they've created amazing stories that anyone can enjoy. Secret Six is easily superior to Suicide Squad lol, especially the mediocre Squad team since New 52. This book looks damn good!!!
@catkins599 it's at the beginning of issue 49 from what I've heard. A page has the correct dialogue but duplicates the next page's art. I believe Marvel announced that we can reach out to the company we purchased the book from and will receive an email with a pdf file of what the correct page should be.
Hey nice video bro btw I hope you re still active. I have a question I already read batman new 52 vol 3 and I like it question is I want to learn all story should I buy this book to this?
Thank you for the nice words. I'm planning a new video soon, if I'll motivate. Yes, I'd read this if you are reading New 52 Batman. It's got highs and lows but overall, it's worth reading. To me. Stay awesome and I'll be back soon.
This is the best video I found of the hard copy to see if it had the first edition or the second edition but it has both parts thanks for recording it on its full.
Hello i was wondering where can i buy the Danger girl deluxe book , i really would like to buy more of Danger books posters or any comic book , this is not negative towards you but you might want to go page by page don't flip threw it because we can't see what's in the pages .
Had it in my cart ready to order for $50 as well but backed out because I just ordered some other comics. Unlike my wife I can’t have packages showing up for me everyday😂
These are pretty much rare now. I’ve been hoping for a deluxe edition like spawn, or library edition. However, I doubt we will get that ever, it’s just too violent
I GOT MY BOOKS READ ISSUE #1 & I CAN SEE MYSELF REREADING THIS , I WAS NOT A JRJR FAN & I LIKE THIS LESS BLOCKY & A GOOD FLOWING MOTION EVERY THING WITH THIS BOOK WORKS AMAZINGLY WELL COLORS WRITING ART EVERYTHING
