Another great video, thanks Gem! Had the second printing but sold it last year since it was going for a big price tag. Decided to get this latest printing and really love the new cover design.
no, we're gonna wait until the following weekend. we will drop a non-spoiler and spoiler review tomorrow. we're also going live sunday night after game of thrones.
Thanks Gem. I grabbed this 3rd printing since I didn't have it. I say worth the buy if you don't have it, but no need to upgrade if you got the 2nd printing. Plus that black dustjacket and wraparound hardcover, can't beat it.
Hey Gem, Next time can you please give us a comparison shot of the binding of both books. The newer one seemed to want to snap shut, the older one stayed open wonderfully. But it may have been red more. Sometimes companies improve the bindings... Sometimes they don't. The reprint of Ennis Punisher Omnibus didn't have better binding than the original. The teen Titans reprints have way better binding. Its nice to know...for us book nerds..
Reading the new one now...enjoyable. I read the main story when it came out but never read all of the tie ins...some of the mini stories are pretty bad...like Lois Lane in Scuba Gear...over all about halfway through and like it.
@@GemMintCollectibles Good to know! I decided not to upgrade too. Found out that the added material on the new printing is the Bloodline series, which isn't really relevant to the material. Do you agree?
yes but new one are the extra 7? issues worth it cos im bout buy that now for $227, or the 2nd print for $110....tryin find out if the extra few issues and annuals matter at all??? or just nice to have?
Is this a good place to start reading Superman? I've been lookin' for a jumping on point for "The Man of Steel" thought Bendis would be where but nope that stuff has been wack. I've heard that Superman Rebirth is a good starting point as well. I've read Superman for Tomorrow and Superman: Red Son. I grew up during Death Of Superman ('84 represent) but have never read the story.
I read this story a lot time ago, but didn't keep reading Superman. I only started a couple of months ago and I started with Rebirth. I think it's a good starting point. If you want to do it, you kind of need this omnibus as prerequisite for the Action Comics Rebirth (there's two titles, Superman and Action comics), which is written by the same author (Dan Jurgens.) Then read the Lois and Clark paperback which is a miniseries leading to Superman Rebirth (Road to Rebirth.) I recommend getting the Deluxe Editions, 3 books for Action Comics and 4 for Superman.
I think Rebirth is a great starting point. I would also recommend the essential Superman stories like "For the Man Who Has Everything" by Alan Moore, "What's So Funny About Truth, Justice & the American Way?" by Joe Kelly, and "Brainiac" by Geoff Johns.
I owned the second printing and I hemmed and hawed over buying the new one...which I did since it has a bunch more material. But please, DC, no fourth printing!!! :)
For some reason the third printing is crazy rare now. It is selling used for $600+ and new for $880+ as of right now. I’d be as bold as to make the claim that is one of if not the rarest widely released omnibus.
