When the last Absolute came out, I decided to read a few of the issues online first before diving into the expense of 3 absolutes at one time. After reading 3 issues, I went to IST and gladly spent the money. Holy crap, i had never read this before but I was hooked after issue 1. It was WAY ahead of it's time. You can make parallels between this story and out political climate today. Really really good stuff. Got the first absolute the other day and volume 2 and 3 will be here tomorrow...can't wait to devour them. Great vid as always brother, keep them coming

[@NearMintCondition]

Thanks for the kind words, hermano. Yeah, I thought about mentioning the similarities between Trans and the political climate in the last few years, but I tend to not get political in my videos. Not that I don't mind talking about it, but I think the world gets enough of it out there. I''m just here for entertainment purposes. :)

[@Mattkeyz1]

I love this book soooo much and it always feels like there aren't enough people who talk about it or know of it.

[@NearMintCondition]

It's definitely a series that deserves more praise. I guess DC saw a chance to collect a Warren Ellis book in its prestige format and saw it as a no brainer.

[@bryanwilson2165]

I am so happy this FINALLY came out! One of my favorite series.

[@NearMintCondition]

I'm so glad they decided to ride it out and finish what they started.

[@tolga_berk]

Best reviews as always here on Near Mint Condition👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you, my dood!

[@iamthomasjudge]

I literally punched the air when they announced volume 3 of this. Was so worried we would get screwed on this... but here we are! Great vid as always :)

[@NearMintCondition]

Yeah, brother I was so worried too. I didn't think I'd have to complete Absolutes of one of my favorite Warren Ellis works in my hand.

[@rayanknezic8682]

I m just like waiting on the reprints of my favorite comic book series. Absolutely need these absolutes man. Sick. It's a piece that brings you straight to the 90's even if you were too young to live it fully. Just like preacher.

[@NearMintCondition]

They are coming.

[@babylonshadows1877]

Already picked up the last absolute and I'm half way done with the second. It's not for everyone but by God it's right up my alley. Spider is one of my fav comic book characters! Btw Omar, update on my hellboy reads. Just finished The Conqueror Worm. I love Poe so I really enjoyed all the references. I really wanna know more about lobster Johnson, do we see him again? Was he just a ghost or something? And how come the floating head dude is alive? I was sure he died at the end of the first library edition when Rasputin blew up the castle.

[@NearMintCondition]

Spider Jerusalem is one of my favorites too. We see plenty of Lobster Johnson. The guy got his own series that I hope DH collects in HC someday.

[@babylonshadows1877]

@@NearMintCondition good, I look forward to seeing him again. Right now Hellboy left to Africa, Rasputin seems to be almost gone, other than the Baba Jagga the only danger seems to be Hecate. I wanna see how they take it from there.

[@NearMintCondition]

Yes, the next story arc is one of my favorites. Very envious of you experiencing this for the first time.

[@NFLDude56]

I haven't read the series yet, and will be waiting for those complete tpbs. Don't cancel them DC!!!

[@NearMintCondition]

It's sad we live in a day where we have to beg DC not to cancel a line of books.... I have no idea what is wrong with their collected editions department.

[@comicbookcrazy]

I love, love, love Warren Ellis and Transmetropolitan. It is one of my top 5 comics of all-time. While I will buy the 3rd Absolute I wish, personally, that DC had put this series out in 2 Omnis instead. I'm not a huge fan of the Absolutes and prefer the Omnis. Also, and I think Omar is with me on this, DC needs to get off the asses and put out James Robinson Starman in Omnibus versions. That is a cracking series and needs a proper Omnibi release. Those out-of-print trades cost an arm and a leg. Omar, use your #PeruvianPower to get that done! #OmarRules

[@NearMintCondition]

I was hoping for omnis of Transmetropolitan too, brother! And God yes! Robinson's Starman deserves proper omnibus treatment. I own the HCs, but will double dip like a madman to get those oversized in two omnis and they can throw in The Shade mini that never got an HC. Let's all make it happen!

[@jeremyg371]

Thx Omar I might check this one out some day. I've been into silver coins as of late. Cutting back on my books though when they go out of print they blow away my coin collection. Have a great day.

[@NearMintCondition]

I went one summer collecting coins as a kid. I'm sure they are somewhere at my parents' house. Have a great one as well.

[@benjones8276]

Great video, how long until the comic room tour?

[@NearMintCondition]

Ben I was just talking to the channel about that on Sunday. I'd like to kick off the year with that video.

[@johnv3623]

Do these contain the letter pages (like the Preacher omnis/absolutes) ??

[@robertparker3489]

I wasn’t sure if I wanted to spend my money on an absolute edition (i think they are pretty much sold out now anyway) so I just bought book 1 of transmetropolitan. One of the biggest positives for me was the artwork, absolutely beautiful it came across gritty and vibrant at the same time. The story was a little confusing at times, especially some of the words/terms used, but it still get me interested. My favourite issue was ‘another cold morning’ well written excellent prose and some amazing artwork. Would it be even better if I got hold of an absolute edition, to appreciate it more ?

[@NearMintCondition]

They are out of print, however DC is coming back to print with them later this year. Starting with volume 1. :) The art is amazing and deserves the Absolute treatment.

[@robertparker3489]

Near Mint Condition thank you, going to be an expensive end of year ! Love your channel btw, appreciate the time and effort you put into it.

[@noahhorne6328]

Saw they’re reprinting the first absolute does that possibly mean they will reprint the 2nd and third?

[@NearMintCondition]

I’m hoping exactly that.

[@HarveyPekarsGhost]

So...I should start reading Cable at Transmetropolitan 3? GOT IT!

[@NearMintCondition]

Alright John P! You want Cable! You got it. Let me wrap up my Uncanny X-men OHC part 3 and I'll work on that next, my dood!

[@HarveyPekarsGhost]

@@NearMintCondition I just want the best parts and the least amount of shitty stuff that I'd have to read to understand the best parts. And all the Ladronn

[@NearMintCondition]

I got you, man!

[@betoalbert2919]

Before few days get 6 hard covers..fck great comic

[@NearMintCondition]

Absolutely!

[@rayanknezic8682]

I hear these absolutes fall apart from different youtubers. I am waiting on volume one reprint, but tempted to get vol 2 at a low price. I just fear it falls apart.

[@NearMintCondition]

I've never had a singe issue with these three nor any of my Absolutes. Even my Swamp Thing. I will say that it has to do where it was printed.

[@rayanknezic8682]

@@NearMintCondition putting an order for that absolute today !

[@mdb9920]

Absolutes are the best quality you can buy. Anyone saying they fall apart are just mad they can't afford them.

[@jackfairy666]

WHY?!? Dear god, WHY?!?!?! is Volume 3 OUT-OF-PRINT!!! Its been released a little over a year ago and it's out-of print now??? I have both Volume 1 & 2 and was saving up for Vol.3 and then OOP happens. WTH!!!! 😡

[@NearMintCondition]

I did a video a couple of months after this, stating that I realy thought volume 3 of the Absolutes would be going out print. They just didn't print enough, because volume 2 didn't sell as well as 1. It really sucks.

[@undisputedboyka12]

Hey Omar you have some beautiful hands, put a little mayonnaise on them next video...and nice book

[@NearMintCondition]

I'm Latino! I don't have mayonnaise in my house! :)

[@undisputedboyka12]

Lmao GET SOME

[@dacollector9392]

Volume 3 OOP?

[@NearMintCondition]

I hope not, I literally just made a video about how I think its the one that will go out of print next.

[@olee_7277]

Hollywood please stop making reboots and work on Transmetropolitan movie or tvshow ! NOW

[@NearMintCondition]

Good Lord! You have no idea how much I would love a TV show of this great series.
