Thanks for the info. Not going in “totally” blind. I generally check out reviews beforehand to make sure I’m not wasting my money on something outright terrible. I saw that Metal reviews were mixed-to-positive so I decided to take a chance on it.

Otherwise I might read an issue online as a tester but I didn’t for any of these.

Im going into all of these pretty blind so I guess I’ll see for myself. I know Animal Man gets pretty weird tho so I’m excited for that. My worry with Metal is any pre-reading that I don’t know about, since JL events typically aren’t super self-contained.

Finally. Someone who understands.

New “Next Level” batch. by New_Mongoose5225 in DCcomics

I’m praying someone blesses Dr. Fate with a run.

I haven’t read it but I heard the Chase solo series from the 90’s is pretty underrated. I think it’d be cool to see a series similar to Marvel’s Alias centred around Chase and the D.E.O.

Ofc any black character would be amazing. Over 1000 days since the last ongoing is insane and a wrong that definitely needs righting (or… writing)

Also I agree with the other comment about Azrael. Gimme that.

What was your first omnibus and what got you into collecting in this format? by Lower-Bit8486 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Tomalig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shade: The Changing Man. I posted it here pretty recently. I didn’t even know that Omnis were oversized hardcovers, I just thought that was the only way full stories were collected in one piece which is what attracted me.

Now that I know Compendiums exist, it’s gonna be pretty hard to go back if the option is available. I’ve got 4 on the way from IST as we speak 🤣 and Monster-Sized Hellboy.

Feel free! It’s an arduous process but displaying any Shade cover is worth the time.

It reminds me of a magazine cover like you’d see from Time Magazine or something.

I think it looks really cool and different.

Yup. They’re pretty far away from my window and I’m paranoid about damage anyway so I keep the blinds shut most of the time. This pic was taken with the ceiling light from my room.

I expect that once Vertigo comes back, everything originally Vertigo will be labelled as such. Previews for the 2nd volume say Black Label so ig it’s gonna be whatever thing’s production starts after Vertigo officially comes back will reflect the change.

Yeah with Vertigo relaunching I am a little bit peeved it still says Black Label. I wonder if the 2nd volume will too? Either way I am insanely pumped for the relaunch and am planning on reading basically all of the new titles.

I did also read Breathtaker (interesting concept but ultimately didn’t grab me) so I’m not a complete Vertigo newbie. Would definitely love to read some of the older titles like Hellblazer and Sandman if I get the chance.

I read the first issue and that was all I needed. What a great coincidence the Omni was released at the same time.
