I wouldn't be satisfied with the omnibus unless it includes at least that much, and then there's some pre-Knightfall Batman material and post-Knightfall Showcase material that it would be nice to see included.collectededitionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14698269790653953645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-8652310555169477962016-10-22T12:06:26.971-05:002016-10-22T12:06:26.971-05:00Well, in the last year or so DC has found that mos...Well, in the last year or so DC has found that most of their profits are coming from trade paperbacks, so I can see why they want to do those first.

I'd rather read books in hardcover (one of the great things about the New 52 release policy) - now, for fear of double dipping (especially on books that are coming out twice as frequently, due to twice-monthly issue releases), my trade buying and collecting will be paralyzed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-60580117727452049972016-10-22T01:10:28.224-05:002016-10-22T01:10:28.224-05:00Amazing Spiderman Omnibus vol 3

For trade readers I felt that one of the biggest complaints about DC's New 52 is that nearly every section of the DCU had their mini events collected in their respective titles and again in the crossover trades, which made reading them very frustrating at times. If DC doesn't do it, then I think that's a big missed opportunity.<br /><br />As to the Batman: Kngihtfall omnibus, just how much wasn't collected in the three part paperback editions they released a while ago?Codyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17178727978311013660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-59920843538077267002016-10-21T14:10:24.260-05:002016-10-21T14:10:24.260-05:00You can leave suggestions here or tweet 'em or...You can leave suggestions here or tweet 'em or email 'em, whatever you like.

With Steve Orlando writing all the issues, it was one of the more cohesive multi-book crossovers in Batman history. No weird continuity errors or overly repetitious scenes between the end of one book and the beginning of the next.<br /><br />Count me on board, as well, for a complete Knightfall collection.
