Best Dark Horse Collected Editions!

[@williamramskill5488]

Hellboy and The Goon are the reason I fell in love with comics.

[@Mahdigilak]

Year?

[@desanovinarts]

Hellboy for me

[@madhavpatel1577]

Top 10 list idea: Which books smell the best.

[@Stephen_D421]

I totally get it... and would be down lol.

[@toppsguy]

I loved the smell of new Bone issues from cartoon books

[@ElIconico]

All of them do :)

[@georgeg5640]

My favourite dark horse comics: 1. Berserk 2. Black Hammer 3. Blacksad 4. The Goon 5. Sin city 6. Hellboy 7. 300

[@colin6612]

Love me some Hellboy, Baltimore, Witchfinder, Dark Horse Star Wars, Harrow County, Sin City, Goon, Predator, Aliens, Black Hammer, Dark horse Conan, Smoke/Ashes... Some others I'll probably think of later. Dark horse's divergence into having more Manga offerings has probably boosted their sales. I love the Beserk Stuff; Hellsing coming out later this year! Glad you're shining a spotlight on publishers outside of the big 2. Nice video Omar!

[@turtleanton6539]

Im buying all the berserks and buying all 3 hellsings when they are out.

[@comicleidenschaft6166]

Baltimore !!! Hell yeah

[@williamsphotography1]

1.Paul Chadwick's Concrete 2. Sin City 3.Hell Boy 4.The American 5. The Mask 6. Ghost 7.Flaming Carrot Comics 8. Give Me Liberty 9.Grendel 10.Nexus

[@NearMintCondition]

I wish Concrete got collected in some nice OHCs I sold off my comics years ago and would love to own them again. Need to read Nexus too. I never got around to reading that series.

[@asianjohnnydepp4729]

Just ordered all 4 Harrow County’s library editions. 80’s and 90’s Marvel is my jam, but dis sounds interesting. Thanks for da recommendation.

[@mdb9920]

I just ordered all 4 as well plus black hammer library edition. Nice!

[@asianjohnnydepp4729]

Michael Bourke Nice man! Yeah, I was tempted with Black Hammer as well. Might have to pull da trigger 👍

[@davidpressley5653]

Very nice

[@TheArtOfB]

I love when people ask marvel or DC and i say darkhorse.

[@NearMintCondition]

Hahahaha. Great Answer!

[@knivezinsane1839]

My collected editions is lacking on the Dark Horse side. I only have the obvious Berserk, Hellboy and BPRD. Love the video because it introduces me to other possible great runs I may enjoy.

[@NearMintCondition]

Thanks for watching!

[@jordanrichardlewis]

You have such an amazing talent at selling these books. You make me get excited about every book.

[@NearMintCondition]

Oh thank you! Seriously!

[@willyardiansyah7976]

hi Mr. Uncany this my favorit blok from D.H. , all Mike mignola , the mask , buff the vampire slayer , Conan( Kurt B) , lady killier , harrow country . l think thats it .

[@johnspartan247]

My Top 3 Favourite Dark Horse Comics would have to be 3. B.P.R.D 2. 300 1. Hellboy

[@paultimler474]

Started picking up Dark Horse books back in the day when it was Frank Miller’s Sin City, John Byrne’s Next Men, and this new upstart Mike Mignola with this book called Hellboy. Those are still the best as far as I’m concerned, just now catching up on BPRD, which has been phenomenal. You’ve got me curious to check out Goon and Black Hammer too!

[@theyakkoman]

Top 20 European Comics please! I'd love to see Tintin, Gaston Lagaffe, Modesty Blaise, Valhalla etc. get some love.

[@davidpressley5653]

Omar you should check out Cullen bunn bone parish and regression. And I'm not sure but you can correct me if I'm wrong. sixth gun as well unless you already did a review on that series. I can't remember on top of my head

[@vaibhawkr3904]

Top 10 DC/Marvel series/runs

[@KL-ii6dt]

Suggestion: best volumes/omnis per series. For example hellboy omni 2, bprd omni 2, and brpd hell on earth omni 3 will tell you everything you need to know about each series with minimal confusion and maximum feels

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you for the suggestion.

[@lukejennings6589]

Not even going to make a list because it would all just be Star Wars lol. Great video Omar, especially liking the new picture-in-picture format you're trying out!

[@jblue6820]

Too bad Tales Of The Jedi didn't make your list. I know the rights went back to Marvel. But Dark Horse did the best, original stories with Tales and Dark Lords Of The Sith👍✌️...otherwise great Haul!

[@marcusjavier8901]

My Favorite Dark Horse Comics Hellboy The Goon B.P.R.D Black Hammer Sin City Next Men Usagi Yojimbo Harrow Country Fear Agent Conan The Barbarian Edit:I Didn't include Blacksad as it included in a another list i made

[@nelsoncarvalho6338]

Since this is going to be a weekly segment for the foreseeable future. How about doing genre specific top 10 ie top 10 sci phi, fantasy, horror, super hero etc. and not be confined to a single publisher. Might be a lot harder to do though. Anyways thanks. Love these vids and stay safe

[@shreyankdas4547]

Please do a top 10 vertigo titles list in collected editions. I always find your suggestions extremely helpful.

[@nestorch8665]

I'd love to see your top 10 Vertigo titles. Great video, as always!

[@winchriscajayon6388]

I surprisingly almost have the same exact list for Dark Horse except Tales from the Crypt. Avatar the Last Airbender is what I have in place of that for the current moment as I have never read any comics of Tales From the Crypt. I did however, use to watch the show and was scared as a kid lol Nice list!

[@apjferreira1]

I just have the Umbrella Academy Library editions and some manga from Dark Horse... Great video!

[@richguev]

How’s academy, good read?

[@apjferreira1]

@@richguev Yeah, it's nice.

[@NearMintCondition]

You are a fan of art. I love it!

[@bangnapi2786]

Near Mint Condition thank you, sir.. tell you the truth Dark Horse titles mostly never dissapointed me.. besides the big two, Dark Horse and Image Comics always give me alternative titles that always fresh.

[@robbieduffy9998]

Man..just love these top ten type of vids..!! You done one a while back and you recommended a book called "Maus"..so I promptly bought it..and loved it..now it looks like I'll be doing something similar with these books..cheers..!!!

[@user-jr4pp6qs4t]

Top 10 indie comics (if you haven't done one) Top 10 Valiant comics (if you collect of course) Top 10 European comics Thanks for your awesome videos

[@shaileshanthony5693]

Great list... Loved the new video format of you flipping through the pages. Gives better insight on the art. Thank you!

[@ChadRFoltz]

Super excited you put some Jeff Lemire in there. I feel like other than Essex County, he gets overlooked too often.

[@NearMintCondition]

YES! He is great.

[@Kaue87]

Next one: top idw Comics! Please, Omar!

[@mguy1977]

My top three are: Hellboy L E, Hellboy & BPRD 194x & 195x miniseries & the 3 volumes of Blacksad.

[@NearMintCondition]

Great List.

[@nitishkean]

Love your channel. Its just phenomenal 👌

[@wouterdhondt5642]

My favourites: BPRD (specifically plague of frogs series) Hellboy Harrow County Fear Agent Black Hammer Umbrella Academy

[@ReaperXC]

Do your favourite of each collected editions. Favourite TPB, epic, standard HC, OHC, omni, absolute.

[@jordanthomas4379]

Great video Omar, I’d also love to see your top 20 European comics.

[@Havok1718]

[@MrJmoor591]

Had to sell my Goon library set awhile back when we needed $, but I love that series. Off topic; where’s that Batman comp reading order?!? Great vid btw!

[@davidpressley5653]

That tells you how talented Mike mignola's like I would say the same thing for me for bprd being in my top 10.

[@mr.sand7899]

Agreed Sin City is the best Frank Miller book.

[@NearMintCondition]

My man!

[@Don_Neto_Jr.]

Another interesting list! I'm definitely going to check out a few of these titles. I'm in the process from switching from Superheros to horror, supernatural & crime thrillers. Thanks for another cool top 10 and keep up the great work Omar!

[@NearMintCondition]

Thankyou so much.

[@makzax]

You could also do a Fantagraphics top... but they have so many, many great comics that making a list would be really hard!!! Their classic stuff reprints only, are enough for a top10 :)

[@ernststavro8090]

Don't have a lot of Dark Horse. Baltimore's awesome and I really need to get more Mignola stuff. Also, Fear Agent and Harrow County look like they need to go on my shopping list about...yesterday. My favorite DH books (if Berserk doesn't count) by far are the three "Colossal Conan" books. (Busiek/Nord might just be my favorite take on the character ever.)

[@atheistsince1210]

Perfect run down Omar! Adding some history I’m an Aliens and Predator freak and have all the comics and trades dating from 1996 on up. These titles always navigated me thru very dark rough spots surviving in SoCal.

[@NearMintCondition]

I really hope that Marvel reprints them in an amazing omnibus format.

[@JoseGonzalez-jx3ot]

Idea: The most beautiful books you own. Presentation, quality, feel, etc.

[@davidpressley5653]

Black hammer is like deconstruction without being a deConstruction on superheroes. It's a really great series Where a lot of the heroes in the series are basically inspired by other characters Dc, marvel, etc. Event ideas that inspired then to be still feel relatable and unique. This has to be one of Jeff lemire's best series. And it's still a growing universe. Even the spinner out of this universe exquisitely entertaining

[@Havok1718]

Brother do top 10 comic cross overs that never happened. Great as always

[@davidpressley5653]

Definitely most this list is similar to mine to Dark Horse. Except for maybe like three spots because those three particular ones I have not read fear agent I have not read Tales from the Crypt and I have not read I think man I forgot its name with the rabbit. I'm still trying to fill in those last three spots for me because I still haven't found something to fill those spots.

[@kevinm4193]

Very well done video with the insert of the interiors. Excited for the manga list as well

[@andrewglazier8940]

The Creepy/Eerie/Vampirella archives are incredible. Vampirella is published by Dynamite, however.

[@NearMintCondition]

I have done some videos on those archives.

[@miloradbulatovic9711]

Top 10 European comics

[@Justegarde]

Good picks. I definitely would have The Massive in my top 10, as well as Kurt Busiek's Conan run.

[@greendaleforever]

I have Dark Empire trilogy as 3 separate trades but I do have the DH hardcover of The Thrawn Trilogy :)

[@davidpressley5653]

Yeah I agree we're not going to talk about Sin City 2

[@freddiealonsonido]

Great stuff! Haven't read a bunch of those yet but surely they'd make my list if I had. 1. Henchgirl by Kristen Gudsnuk It's so good, a reprint of the paperback is due this year I think. Everyone should read this. 2. Legend of Korra Library Edition The Last Airbender LEs are great but I'm still anoyed the art doesn't take the full page. I know people resisted the Korra aninated series but trust this is the better comic. Art is just as breathtaking as always for Avatar, but the scripting and the way the plot moves has certainly improved. 3. Buffy Tales Library Edition I don't own any of the Buffy seasons since so many were already OOP but this one you're ok with just the show. It's a great anthology book highlighting some awesome talent. 4. Conan the Barbarian by Kurt Busiek Kind of a cheat because I dont own this and will as a Marbel Ommibus but before that announcement I rrad about half digitally and it's fantastic. 5. Hellboy I owned a few of the paperback omnibuses and got rid of them to upgrade, which I still haven't... but I really loved this damn series and hopefully I can finish it soon. The actual cheat: Harrow County! I love Cullen Bunn, for years his Marvel stuff captivated me and then late last year started reading his indie stuff and some of it is even better! Can't wait to get the LEs of Harrow County.

[@RedEyedWolfTV]

I am SOOOOO excited that this Fear Agent Edition is coming back.

[@bengalinsky4300]

Thanks for reminding me about Hellboy, i used to read it when the first few stories were coming out. The library editions are gorgeous!

It's so good!

I didn't know Blacksad got released in the us by Dark Horse. That is awesome. Blacksad is defo one of my favorite 'strips' as we call them in Belgium. Beautiful ... in every single way.

[@NearMintCondition]

They are gorgeous releases.

[@apacheco7030]

top 10 epic collections and collected editions!

[@tapsilogic]

I went with omnibus TPBs for everything BPRD-related because (1) they match the Hellboy omnibuses, and (2) Plague of Frogs HCs are a pain in the ass to find.

[@nikk.7758]

I ordered harrow county omnibus volume 1 yesterday and im so hyped

[@NearMintCondition]

Such a great book.

I’m gonna have to go real big: my two favorite Dark Horse books are Big Damn Sin City and Colossal Conan.

[@betoalbert2919]

Fear agent remind me on Mike Danger don't know why. Primortals was cool also

[@dyingbreath7]

I have to say that I prefer Martha Washington over Sin City otherwise great list.

[@LFPXX]

I have both Fear Agent Libraries and reading those made me a Remender fan. Outside of Dark Horse stuff Black Science is very similar. And Uncanny X-Force is great.

[@zack4407]

Really enjoy the way this was filmed and edited

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you.

[@sh0ndy]

Ahh thanks algorithm! Year old video but new for me!

[@ChewieD2]

Gotta give special shout out to some Star Wars books that Dark Horse published. The Dark Empire, Thrawn & Crimson Empire Trilogies all got printed in hard back similar to BPRD hardbacks in size. You can buy these still from Marvel now but only in Epic Collections and these Dark Horse collections are (in my opinion) the best format. Though I do appreciate Marvel doing them as Epic collections as that keeps things affordable for new readers to get into them or old readers to pick up runs they missed!

[@NearMintCondition]

That's awesome.

[@batman91777]

One of the most appealing things about this library editions is how crazy affordable they are. I got most of the comics Omar lists and they went for an average of $20 to $35 dollars. I would like to know waht does Omar think of the Baltimore Omnibus from Mike Mignola and Ben Stenbeck.

[@TJMartinek]

Do a top 10 self published or underground comics.

[@makzax]

Cool list! I see no Star Wars, I guess because Marvel now publishes these. Dark Empire was really great! Another suggestion is NEXUS archives, one of the best space comics of it's time.

Not sure if you did Boom! Comics video, and I've never seen you talk about Firefly/Serenity, I cannot recommend those enough! Dark Horse books were better quality, not really fan of Boom! Comics' matte easy-stain finish of their hardcovers, but the comics themselves are amazing, especially if you're a fan of the TV series. Black Hammer and Black Science are definitely on my list, as well as Fear Agent and Hellboy, although Black Science is from Image comics, that's the video I'll be watching next
