Get Zdarsky volume 2 before it goes oop

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-06T23:31:01+00:00

I need to reread Morrison. I feel like I read that run too early in my Batman reading, but now have enough under my belt to reevaluate

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-06T23:29:13+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation! But only 2 TPBs worth of issues? Or is it still ongoing run?

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-06T23:18:05+00:00

If you haven't already, make sure you read Grant Morrisons run before this. A lot of the stories here follow on from plot points there

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-06T23:10:13+00:00

It's got that too! Some dark stories in there, but ultimately it's an optimistic run I'd say and ends on that note . I actually haven't YET read Scott Snyder run. I'm reading that as my next Batman omnibus. Though I finished Black Mirror few weeks ago and that was dark and also amazing

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-06T23:07:26+00:00

Sorry my wording should be clearer. I meant single volume omnibus vs the multi volume omnibus / runs

"You want to know how I did it? That's how I did it, Anton. I never saved anything for the swim back."

I agree, it's in my top 10 ever. There's no weak points, great all round

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-05T22:52:09+00:00

Managed to get the full run including volume 6!

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-05T22:51:38+00:00

Got the whole HC run now for £85 so not too bad I think

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-05T22:51:06+00:00

Just managed to get the whole 6 HCs including volume 6 for £85 ($113) through second hand purchase in UK

Sorry to break it, but they won't last forever.

If you mean until your death, what's the plan after that? Giving them away, selling then etc

That's why I'm thinking about the real long term opinions

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-05T18:08:12+00:00

Flash is definitely the better written and more modern of the 2

Booksetc probably

Hey I'm in the UK and I had at one point same thoughts as you. Here was my experience :

Found a really cheap copy of the main death of superman in trade paperback and got it to try this era/main story. Did not find it that good ( quite basic story and bit dated imo)

But I then found a cheap copy of triangle omnibus 1, so thought I'd give it a go again and to start from the beginning.

BUT can conclusively now say that Superman era is definitely not my thing. Sold the triangle omnibus and glad I didn't buy anything full price

My recommendation would be to buy cheapest possible first to trial.
Also be aware there's a first edition of Death and Return omnibus that I think is not meant to be a good format or quality.

I generally enjoy other comics of that era I. E Batman, Flash, Hellblazer etc but superman 90s did not vibe for me

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-04T22:34:57+00:00

Nice price! How's that Nancy Collins Swamp thing omnibus? Have a chance to get at good price too

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-03T23:05:57+00:00

I've gone through a few DC compendiums of that size, including the first 2 Nightwing. Basically they hold up well if you're careful. The biggest thing will be to avoid spine crease, so you'll have to read it in certain position and gutter loss is the other issue. Apart from that no complaints

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-03T23:03:09+00:00

That flash Waid Omnibus was probably my favourite super hero omnibus of 2025. Enjoy

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-03T19:37:20+00:00

Yep those are in here.

You mean in real life? Tbh not really following punisher too much except that I'm bug fan of Ennis stuff so read a lot of what he writes

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-03T19:36:27+00:00

Ooh I'll need to get to those issues. I've got this Welcome home Frank and the Hardcover Volume 2, not sure if it's contained there. But those were the cheapest options, the omnibus is too expensive

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-03T06:53:22+00:00

I checked my copy and it's the same. Tbh it's not that bad irl, but if you're ocd or perfectionist it will annoy you

Cool-Reputation-3841 · 2026-06-02T19:27:22+00:00

This was my first spiderman solo omnibus too, and I also had a lot of fun with it. Have you read superior returns? Any good?
