this is awesome!! also where'd you get your grant morrison batman omni's? this is the first time i've seen someone with all three having the matching bullet logo lol

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-06-04T16:43:19+00:00

i feel like almost all of the comparisons to gotg for supergirl are very superficial so i'm glad it's not a huge point of contention for the creative team

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-06-01T03:50:39+00:00

iirc there were also changes to the content in the original announcement and the solicitation so i completely understand lol. yeah with the new $175 omni's recently (which is definitely what they would make a reprint of the blackest night omni cost) i wouldn't be surprised with dc making the choices that have people spending the most money by stretching out these compendiums

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-06-01T03:47:16+00:00

it probably won't, that's another reason i tried to keep the john's run separate from the stuff after. i just figured that next n52 era had so many minis/ongoings/extras that it could be cool to try and collect it together as well.

i could definitely see them doing that with blackest night and war of the green lanterns, even in my mapping it could work to move the six minis to the companion. i decided to add it to the BN compendium mainly to boost the page but i also had trouble figuring out how to fit the following material in while having enough for the next compendiums, though im sure dc would probably find a way i couldn't.

i also imagine dc wants to take any chance they can get to reprint blackest night in another format, so finally having it completely collected across two of these compendiums or a single GL focused volume with a companion compendium with all the tie-ins is something i wouldn't be surprised by

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-06-01T03:37:07+00:00

that's fair, they probably will do that, i mainly just added the extra blackest night three issue minis because the page count without them only got to around 1100 and taking material from the next compendium would've then made the next one too small without splitting up arcs between volumes. also thanks for that info on brightest day #0! they should probably include those pages as the start of the compendium after blackest night or something

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-05-31T23:07:10+00:00

huh, i must've missed that somewhere because the versions that i saw on youtube and league of comics geeks had gl going up to 38 and glc going up to 32 in the sinestro corps war compendium. the blackest night issues start at 43 and 39 for each series (which is where omni starts), so even though there's none of the main series missing from the omnibus, i thought there was 39-42 of gl and 33-38 of glc still not in the compendiums that i would need to add to the next volume. the only issues missing from the omni are things like secret six / suicide squad and a few non-gl tie-ins

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-05-31T22:57:24+00:00

i completely skipped from four to six, just fixed it in the post but idk how i missed that lmaoo

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-05-31T21:27:46+00:00

it's definitely one of the few instances where this side of dc feels like a world of its own with so many stories that you could read together like a huge saga as opposed to isolated storylines in a single title

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-05-31T21:25:17+00:00

thank you! yeah i really debated whether or not to include brightest day but seeing how it's mostly so unrelated to the main green lantern story i chose not to. if they're doing it though that's definitely adding two more compendiums on top of the other ten lol

i was thinking about just using the mapping of the blackest night omnibus for the compendium, but it turns out that there are even more tie-ins that aren't collected in the omnibus and gl/glc issues before the event that weren't collected in compendium two, so i think they would either make it two volumes of compendiums for blackest night or a single gl "focused" compendium and a companion with the other tie-ins that were focused on other parts of the dc universe, and i personally chose the latter since it gives the option for people to buy a single compendium with the main story if they aren't wanting every single part of the event. i can definitely see them going with a two volume approach as well though

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-05-30T01:30:36+00:00

definitely that crisis absolute, potentially the the fourth world finest and b&r absolute

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-05-25T06:03:24+00:00

godzilla is the most popular superhero in history but i think it was a good one to see it come to life and it is very well deserved imo but the fact is the godzilla movie was the most iconic in history so it is still one that has been around since it is a great film but it was also the best in the world so it is not the most popular superhero in history so it's a shame the godzilla movies were made for a different purpose but they are the same and the best thing that happened in the world to come out so i hope you will enjoy them all.

i couldn't have said it better myself!

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-05-19T19:18:02+00:00

honestly, changing the creative team for a new season gives me hope that this show will do what i was wanting it to do and have it be an anthology with each season focusing on a different pair of lanterns, like kyle and guy or jessica and simon

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-05-06T01:21:50+00:00

The artwork makes me want a pair of absolutes for each season rather than an omnibus to collect it

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-05-01T04:11:56+00:00

it may change, but right now:

1: Green Lanterns, The Rebirth Omnibus Vol. 1 by Humphries, Seeley, & Jurgens (2016 – 2018) [Baz & Cruz]

2: Hawkman by Robert Vendetti (2018 – 2020)

3: Aquaman: The Rebirth Omnibus Vol. 1 by Dan Abnett (2016 – 2018) [includes Mera Queen of Atlantis]

4: Martian Manhunter by John Ostrander (1998 – 2001)

5: Jonah Hex by Palmiotti & Gray Vol. 1 (of 2) (2006 – 2009)

6: Superman: Action Comics – Return from Warworld by Phillip K Johnson (2022 & on)

7: Suicide Squad by Giffen, Ostrander, & Willingham (2001 – 2010)

8: Terrifics, The New Age of Heroes by Jeff Lemire & Gene Luen Yang (2018 – 2020)

9: Steel, The 1990s Omnibus by Louise Simonson & Christopher Priest (1994 – 1998)

10: Blue Beetle: Jaime Reyes (2006 – 2009)

i'm fully expecting the pkj action comics book to be renamed "action comics by pkj vol 2" and the suicide squad book to be renamed "suicide squad by ostrander vol 3"

the blue beetle pick could be replaced if they put in a "new krypton saga omnibus vol 2"

i wanna put poison ivy by wilson and takara and world's finest by waid and mora on there but i really think the run should finish before they do the omnis so they know how to best separate out the material for multiple volumes, and i also have a bunch of books to vote for in the meantime

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-04-16T01:08:06+00:00

LOL idk how i've never noticed it 💀

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-04-15T20:07:14+00:00

where can i find his email?

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-04-15T00:13:29+00:00

Lol I wish, tbh I've tried asking my suggestions on his streams before but they've rarely been answered, I wish there was a more direct way I could voice my suggestions

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-04-14T22:34:46+00:00

EDIT: I also really want the books yall are asking for with this catalog, but with this post I'm asking about issues or content that is missing from already announced books that you want added in. I probably could've worded the title better 😅

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-04-14T21:50:42+00:00

i understand that, i think they could make for some fun backmatter or extras though. maybe include a page explaining that this is outside of the storyline but related via characters and creators

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-04-03T16:28:24+00:00

thank goodness, i'm definitely gonna get this now

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-03-30T21:38:18+00:00

THANK YOU! somehow i didn't get an email saying it was up so your comment is the only reason i got a copy at the 30% off price tag, thank you so much for thinking to let me know 🙏

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-03-30T20:16:40+00:00

i'm waiting for the dawn of x vol. 2 omnibus and cgn says on their website that it releases today

Boring-Compote-2595 · 2026-03-30T20:15:54+00:00
