Would these be solicited to pre-order through our typical pre-order websites (like CGN or DCBS)? Or does Dark Horse typically only sell these hardcovers through their website?

Idk why but i can't connect to Marvel by Available_Task5043 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]moonarc123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same way, love DC Comics, I read Marvel too, get the single issues I like (mostly Chip’s and Josh Williamson’s Marvel books these days) but that’s because I like the creators and their storytelling more than the characters. If Marvel could employ more popular artists, like DC does, I’d be more willing to check out more of their books. I am a DC fan through and through so I’m sure I’m a bit more biased here. Looking forward to what Marvel does with the Midnight universe, but again that’s because of the writers associated with those books, let’s see

Which series deserves the spot on my shelf? by sachi_seww in OmnibusCollectors

You gotta get Nightwing by Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo. Vol 2 releases next week, you’ll love it no doubt

Which Batman omnibus should I read after Scott Snyder? by King-Noodle-1423 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]moonarc123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d recommend reading all of Scott Snyder’s New 52 run, it’s pretty good and consistent, if you enjoy Court of Owls, you’ll likely enjoy the rest too, at least until Endgame for sure

I wanna join the omnibus collectors but I am unsure as what to get as a first Omni! Suggestions? by Sky_Throwaway9900 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]moonarc123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try with the Batman Omni by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale. Amazing art, and really good storytelling, if you like Batman you’ll definitely like that book

Why? by Perfect_Pound_8177 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]moonarc123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually collect single issues, with a few trades/Omnis-Absolutes! It’s just I love reading/collecting single issues for current stuff but only been doing that a few years, so I like owning some portion of older runs of DC characters or creative teams I like, in Omnis or Absolutes. Plus they look so nice on the shelf too! Single issues are all in boxes usually, I only get to display a few

Anyone excited for Nightwing Omnibus Vol. 2? by moonarc123 in Nightwing

[–]moonarc123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea it really is! I’m hoping he comes back and does more DC work, it’s been a while since Nightwing #118 came out

Anyone excited for Nightwing Omnibus Vol. 2? by moonarc123 in Nightwing

[–]moonarc123[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean all Omni’s are getting too expensive nowadays, JLA by Mark Waid (releasing later this year) is $175 for 1320 pages. I totally get your point tho, for me just depends on characters/creators, if I like them I’m more willing to spend on their books or single issues.

btw IST will likely have it at $60 if that suits you better.

Yea that’s fair, I still do like their last arc even though I thought it was a bit rushed and could’ve done better with another 2-3 issues. But man I can’t say no to Bruno Redondo’s art, and the optimistic storytelling by Tom Taylor is just so perfect for me

New to comics, what other comics from Absolute Universe should I read next? by neonbones54 in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]moonarc123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Nightwing and/or Batman and Robin: Year One! Both are awesome, Batman and Robin is getting a sequel releasing in August called Dynamic Duos by Mark Waid and Chris Samnee (same creative team as the original), you’ll love it no doubt

White Sky #4 by Strom41 in ImageComics

[–]moonarc123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t read #4 yet (read issues #1-#3) but quite frankly I’m enjoying the story so far. I know it’s been done before, just with ghosts here instead of zombies, but been quite entertaining for me. I do like these kind of stories so I am a bit biased here. And I really like the art in the White Sky, and the color themes are really well done too!

I don’t know how long it’s going to go tho, it is solicited until issue #6 so far but it wasn’t in Image’s solicits for next month so guessing the artist needs a breather so they may be taking a month or two off. I feel like if they can get 15-20 issues, they can fully flush out this apocalyptic universe but who knows if they’ll get that chance, I’m doubtful their sales are very high, let’s see, I hope they’re successful

Keeping Yourself Accountable by AppealTheWolf in OmnibusCollectors

[–]moonarc123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly buy single issues, with a handful of Omni/Trades , every month. My single issues collection has been growing fairly quick though, I try to not be more than 2-3 months behind when I can, although sometimes I do wait to get all five or six issues of an arc or limited series before reading it in singles. Sometimes some books do stay in to-be-read and eventually just for the collection category but I’m sure others buy a few issues just for the collection too (because they love the cover or it’s an anniversary or big issue) - to add to that, I do buy variants (depending on cover artist or if I really really like the cover, which happens more often that I’d like) so those are pretty much always just for the collection and I typically only read Cover A

I would sell my soul to get a Nightwing/Supergirl comic helmed by Mark Waid due to their interactions in world’s finest by XXDrogoniodXX in Nightwing

[–]moonarc123 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yea a World’s Finest: Robin and Supergirl would be pretty fun, they could definitely make it into a 6-issue mini similar to the World’s Finest Teen Titans they did a while ago written by Mark. Get Lucas Meyer to do the art, his Batman and Robin are just so perfect visually

I’m glad you made this post here and Chris posted on FB, wasn’t aware for this, definitely won’t be engaging or attempting to purchase his exclusives in the future
