Absolute Justice League: The World's Greatest Super-heroes (NEW PRINTING) Overview & Comparison

The 2024 reprints of Absolutes kick off with Absolute Justice League: The World's Greatest Super-heroes by Paul Dini and Alex Ross! I talk about what makes this story so amazing and why it's one regarded as one of the greatest Alex Ross painted stories of all time. I also do a comparison to the original Absolute Edition!

That SHAZAM story was so POWERFUL. Man did Paul Dini have a way of making an impact with these stories on these characters alone. I personally would love to see him do a full run on Shazam or JL. He’s such an amazing writer. Can’t wait to get my copy of this. Dope overview as usual omar.

zatanna looking THICC on that cover, love it.

[@carsonfarmer3819]

I ordered this based on a review of the first printing. I have never read any of the stories. I am really excited for my copy to arrive. Thanks Uncanny Omar

[@ozymandias96]

I have 2 of the Alex Ross books which are Justice hard cover edition and absolute edition of kingdom come . The books has the best arts and my favorite, will definitely be picking this up soon can’t wait .

[@goldendogs5398]

Colors are going to vary not just between print runs, but within the same print run as well. It depends on where the ink levels are at when printing.

[@theartistknownaszack9234]

Had to get this one

[@edwardmemwah1610]

Thanks, Omar! I am very happy with my original printing of this one!

[@jocool7370]

The printing on the slipcase has been rescaled.

[@colonelweird]

I have the original hardcover Wonder Woman: Spirit of Truth - the pages are significantly larger than the pages of the Absolute edition. I assume the same is true for the other stories. They had to shrink the pages to make them fit the Absolute format - that must be a first.

[@anthonyparkinson4517]

The binding on the original single issues was the worst I've ever seen on any books ever. It is criminal they were ever released. Doubling the price for a straight reprint - Also criminal.

[@lexnoil]

Wow, now I need to get this book!

[@freddiealonsonido]

Interesting my copy is from the 2017 printing and exactly the same as the new printing looks like. Same logos, JL title and Alex Ross getting top billing.

[@Martin_TheCollector]

Mine too

[@user-mo3cd6jh2e]

I can't wait to get this! This sounds right up my alley.

[@Sehlat]

I was lucky enough to get the original giant sized single issues when they came out. Otherwise I would totally buy this Absolute edition.

[@scottysmalls22]

Mine is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. It's my first Absolute. I'm worried that it's going to make me want to buy the rest of them now lol.

[@Humanbean1100]

SUPER glad I saw this overview. Looked very similar to something of my dads I read. Told him if he had them, then bought it. Seems he owns those magazine sized issues, and I probably read them once when I was something like 9.

[@StegoKing]

This needs a Deluxe Edition! You can keep your absolutes.

[@turtleanton6539]

😮

[@IcyShades31]

the new printing looks a bit sharper I think (because they made it a bit darker)

[@SonnyByrne-yw5tr]

Would you want a dc finest volume collecting all of the matt wagner batman stuff?

[@crimefightingspider]

Awesome!!

[@vred2494]

Great overview Omar! Been waiting for awhile for this and got my copy on Monday. The Alex Ross art is stunning! Hopefully Absolute Justice comes out later this year as that’s been on my wishlist for awhile

[@deafalienzulu]

The first print cover image is larger or more zoomed. 🧐

[@a.a677]

Can't wait to FINALLY get this

[@grzegorzciombor5848]

Already proud owner :)

[@siniquezu]

FYI, this new printing looks like the second printing.

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you!

[@craigcamplin9580]

Drop a Rock Album! Omar made milk shoot outta my snot locker, watching at breakfast.

[@josejavierotazu4788]

Is there a new printing in paperback format?

[@lordchaos9148]

I hate how there's no title on the spine
