I need a reprint of these. The actual omnibus has been out of print for years. Companion is still pretty cheap

@rollsymate1824 3 года назад

As a younger collector just getting into the game I’d love a chance to collect some of the older omnis like this, hopefully we see this reprinted in the reasonably near future

@@Vitalhunter222 you probably could but you’d get a whole lot more out of it if you read the main book first. There’s a lot of plot threads that continue in the companion.

@MegaSchremser 3 года назад

Two of my favourite Omnis! Everything Miller did with DD is classic stuff, but "Born Again" is one of the stories that changeg me from a kid reading comics into a comics fan. The Swedish translation of it was released in two magazines in 1988, when I was turning 14. I remember waiting for the second part (they came out three months apart), sneaking a peak on my way home and then finally reading it on my parents balcony on a warm June evening. It blew my mind! Superhero comics could be like this?! The story, the internal monologues, the art; all amazing. This alone makes Frank Miller one of the comic greats, no matter how hard he fell from grace afterwards.

@Justegarde 3 года назад

I just read these a couple months ago. When Miller takes over the writing, you fully understand why it was such a groundbreaking transformational series in the 80s. Born Again is amazing, but like you I think Man Without Fear is the ultimate highlight.

@TheComicBookReport 3 года назад

Daredevil is my #1 hero and I have the Miller stuff in trades but man I may need to upgrade if these get reprints. Loved seeing the oversized

@inopaulvillacastin752 3 года назад

Wow, I was just reminiscing about these omnis today lol. These two are my favorite omnis together, my favorite run of all time, and also has my favorite comicbook story of all-time, Daredevil: Born Again. Highly, highly recommend these to any reader!

@Wishlake 3 года назад

those were the very first omnibuses I ever bought and basically, a starting point of my journey into collecting and reading comics. This brings back amazing memories. It's a great read for the upcoming Autumn.

@carln1463 3 года назад

That quote you mentioned was my favorite DD quote! "Born Again" is one of my favorite comic stories. And agreed that John Romita Jr. on JMS's Spider-Man is Bar none the best thing he's worked on!

@pierre-olivierl5897 3 года назад

I have them all in TPB the 3 volume + born again and man without fear. A must have and a must read for any comics fan!

@newspooiechannel 3 года назад

Nice retro review. Born Again is my definitive Miller Daredevil, though Man Without Fear was my first introduction to the character in the early 90s. And, you know, everyone always points out the tragic love story with Elektra, but no one ever mentions the tragic love story with Heather Glenn, also going on at the same time.

@bunkmastab 3 года назад

I think Man Without Fear is the absolute best jumping on point. Read that mini and you can pick up almost anywhere and be mostly fine

@bobbehers1625 3 года назад

This was my favorite Daredevil run! I was excited when these appeared in omnibus format! This was my very first omnibus purchase.

@marqueemark85 3 года назад

Both of these omnis should be one of those evergreens from Marvel. You can never go wrong with these Daredevil classics from Frank Miller. Can’t wait to get the reprints when they come out as I’ve only got select story arcs in singles (Man without Fear) and TPBs (Born Again) 😎

@johnlindsay7301 2 года назад

The Daredevil by Frank Miller & Klaus Jason Omnibus was my first omnibus. I was surprised at how heavy it was and considered returning it. But instead I decided to give it a read, I’d never read Frank Miller’s main Daredevil run before, and I loved it. The entire experience. The size of the art, the details of the quality of Millers art, the continuation of issue after issue. The quality paper. It was all amazing. Now, a couple hundred omnibuses and counting, that might still be my favorite omnibus. It’s just so good. Everything about it is amazing. Frank Miller’s art has never looked so good. This is the perfect comic book.

@NearMintCondition 2 года назад

I’m so glad you enjoyed the books John.

@camerondecoteau7299 3 года назад

Great video Omar, Daredevil by Miller and werewolf by night were my first omni's I ever got. Thank you Omar for getting me into them. Keep up the great content

@Martin_TheCollector 3 года назад

Sexy books, I should finish reading my copies. Missed out on Ed Brubaker's omnis. Would be smart as hell if Marvel reprinted his run as one big hardcover. Just like how they could've done with his Cpt America reprints.

@purplerain225 3 года назад

That would be nice but its probably easier to reprint then to remap. I'm collecting the Brubaker omnis as they are reprinted so I get it.

@joyroy82 3 года назад

This for me will always be the most legendary comic runs of all time.. offcourse these 2 omnis are my prized possessions- i might have read the Main omnibus around 5-6 times

@camerongodsey9847 3 года назад

Some of the best Daredevil material of all time. If you’re in the US, the companion is still on Amazon through third party sellers. I just recently bought mine for about $60.

@sugarray6250 3 года назад

Damn! I wanted it to be a reprint! Great video though Omar.

@Brovlawski 2 года назад

Just finished these last night for the first time and I must say, damn. What a good read. I managed to get the main omnibus along with the first Lee/Ditko omnibus for a smooth $100 a piece. Probably my best find and prized omnibus possession. Personally, Born Again, and the Man Without Fear are exceptional pieces of work, it’s hard to pick one or the other. Really hope for everyone’s sake that this gets a reprint, because this is a must read for anyone.

@NFLDude56 3 года назад

I'm looking forward to when the Epics get here. I've only read this material in Visionaries from the library and never bought either omni.

@crashline 3 года назад

Clicked this fully thinking it was reprint for these omnis. You should maybe stick the RetroView label at the front? Good content as always thanks Omar!

@timburnham1283 3 года назад

Excellent choice for a retroview sir! I just re-read these volumes myself! CLASSIC, must read DD material for sure. I've picked this material up in multiple formats over the years. Fun Fact: the DM version of both volumes had the standard full dust jacket with classic DD cover images (DD#181 for the main omni and DD#227 for the companion). These have been reprinted a couple times in the past and only fell OOP due to the more recent release of the DD by Miller box TPB box set. I'd be willing to be that once the box set runs its course, we'll get reprints of these volumes again.

@purplerain225 3 года назад

A reprint is definitely needed. Somehow gotta find space for the companion while its still in print. Frank Miller not only re-imagined Batman but also Daredevil and it works such talent. Thank you for the amazing video Omar

@foxyfoxtrot4233 3 года назад

These omnis are absolutely fantastic. I was absolutely surprised in the most positive way. Please do more retroviews!

@hamzadawud 3 года назад

I got these books and the Elektra Omni, all in great condition, for $234 on eBay. Considering how rare the DD Omni is, I think I got a pretty good deal. Edit: Okay, I don't have these first printings with the mini dust jackets, but they look really cool! Mine have the full DJs, and the red is a bit darker, so I'm guessing that was the second printing.

@arthurwoo6082 3 года назад

Great retro-view and i'm glad you did it on these books. Hope Marvel sees it and decides to reprint them as I'm missing the prime DD book. Such seminal and amazing work with Born Again and MWF as the highlights. Miller, Mazzachelli and JrJr were on fire with these stories. Weird design decision for the spines but i guess its because its "Miller" they decide to do something different?

@tjolly9264 3 года назад

I just bought the visionaries tpbs on eBay. I would love to have these omnis, but you can’t beat the price of some old tpbs.

@conroyjett 3 года назад

Yeah, I have those although one of mine has a printing error. I'm upgrading to the Masterworks that are currently in the middle of collecting this run.

@cndart 3 года назад

My first printings had the DM style jacket covers which follows the use of original cover art graphics. This, X-Men, and Spider-Man were my jam back in the day. Enjoying your retroviews!

@user-wf4wp8im1n 3 года назад

I read it last year. Perfect build-up for Daredevil made by Frank Miller. His artwork is adorable, writing is excellent even by today's standarts. Unfortunatelly, i haven't The Man Without Fear, because in my country Daredevil by Miller, Bendis and Waid didn't sell well at all, so we don't have a Miller companion hardcover, but only 3 volumes of original Frank Miller run (and also Born Again TPB). I wish one day the local publisher release it, because i don't like reading in scanes and don't have so much money for english omnibus even without delivery. Great stuff!

@joelgreenlee9421 3 года назад

@maximusaurelius9906 2 года назад

Reprint! Reprint! I've got these in the form of 3 paperbacks, but would definitely buy them in omnibus format. Perhaps they can be reprinted when Daredevil is reintroduced into the MCU of during the next anniversary, which could be the 40th anniversary of Elektra's death in 1982. Or if they'd like to rush, this year, 2021 would the 40th anniversary of Miller's take over as writer.

@oldschoolrivethead 2 года назад

I'm 300 pages into the Miller omnibus, where the first 150 pages were written by Roger McKenzie. I actually really liked McKenzie's issues and so far I'm not really seeing how Miller massively overhauled the book. The two runs seem roughly equal. Maybe Miller's genius starts to shine later in this book, but so far I'm feeling like McKenzie deserves more love than he gets.

@NearMintCondition 2 года назад

It’s the change up and the building of the mythos that has long been established as part of Daredevil.

@JB-ou6fl Год назад

I enjoyed reading McKenzie's issue too. That's what made the DD by Frank Miller Omni so awesome for me. I enjoyed the stories even when Frank Miller was not the writer.
