I expect we'll see future collections for the original Captain Marvel, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Hawkman, and more. The recent Superman and Batman volumes celebrated 80 years of ACTION COMICS and DETECTIVE COMICS, respectively.<br /><br />2. Instead of LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT: STEVE ENGLEHART, I wish we were getting a deluxe edition collecting the "Strange Apparitions" storyline and the DARK DETECTIVE sequel (and the bonus stuff too!).<br /><br />3.

Why not include the three-issue story Cutter, which finishes Batwoman's run in Detective? This story *was* included in the "Batwoman by . . . J. H. Williams" TPB even though it wasn't drawn by Williams. So strange.<br /><br />Justice League International: I'd be happy for this to get entirely collected. But I just hate that every time they start again, they start at the beginning. This means the first 20 issues or so have been collected three times, but the second half of the run not collected at all.<br /><br />Transmet: We'll now have three differently cut sets of TPBs for this.

Unless they're collecting the five-issue miniseries "The Lost Years," which explained in greater detail how and why Dick Grayson became Nightwing.<br /><br />Wonder if "Batman: Family" will collect the three issues of DetCom back-ups that lead into the story proper... just tracked these down in single issues and, well, it's a misfire because not much comes of it.<br /><br />Intriguing that we have a "Caped Crusader Vol. 3" when "Dark Knight Detective Vol. 3" has, apparently, been cancelled.<br /><br />Such, such fond memories of "JLA: The Nail." I don't remember "Another Nail" very well, but hearing that I missed a deluxe edition hardcover tempts me to double-dip.<br /><br />Super excited for some Ditko Question/Blue Beetle. Funny that they're trying to tether it to Watchmen when they could just as easily do a "Ditko tribute" banner.<br /><br />And just a side note, The Silencer is not the last of the "New Age" - by all accounts, "The Terrifics" is continuing with Gene Luen Yang. Fingers crossed for a Kong Kenan cameo!

I imagine we'll just get a second volume (14-24) and they'll be done - 13 is in Officer Down and 25-32 are in the new editions of Murderer? and Fugitive. I'd like to see them collect Scott Beatty's run, though - I enjoyed his two Bane arcs and the Huntress one (more on her in a bit).<br /><br />*If DC keeps the same trade dress for them, I'll buy every character/title 80th Anniversary collection. DC's penchant for changing trade dress, though . . . <br /><br />*Batman: Family is a pretty weird, if appreciated, collection. Why now? Maybe DC has data that says that post NML Bat-titles are their best archival tpbs? If so, we need Batgirl v4!!!!!<br /><br />*Huntress: Cry for Blood being available for less than $40 is fantastic. I'll be getting that for sure. Maybe if the movie sequel moves Renee to being The Question, we can get Pipeline re-released <br /><br />*Glad to see Simone's BoP line starting to be collected, although it's weird the title doesn't name-check her. Beggars can't be choosers, though, so hooray. Keep them coming<br /><br />*I'll probably pick up all the Wal-mart collections. Those are just fun creative teams<br /><br />*I'm so pumped for Bendis's YJ imprint. I love those characters and cannot wait to have less-maudlin tales involving them back in my life. <br /><br />*DC is making an interesting choice putting Tomasi's Nightwing on the stands at the same time as the Ric Grayson trades. The contrast between the two is stark and not particularly forgiving to the current run.Bob Schoonoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15371205595372517089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-49779180710392791902019-03-25T07:36:00.734-05:002019-03-25T07:36:00.734-05:00I guess they won't ever collect the Green Lant...I guess they won't ever collect the Green Lantern/Green Arrow stuff as a Bronze Age Omnibus Vol. 1?
