Dayum!! Jim Lee just announced he's back to make new covers for both. His amalgam sketch is up on his insta

[@adamsifford6228]

So these are just reprinted issues nothing new?

[@ahmadrussell7844]

Releasing both the same day is harsh, they should space it out

[@MrVariant]

Back in my day it was pokemon red and blue 😂 hope you got a friend to get the other. There's always birthday and Christmas gifts 😂. Shame no $40 digital. 7:00 cool voting 🗳. Note that the dc versus marvel omnibus has a ton of batman stories, at least 7. So I'll get amalgam. He's overused and I am gonna get the bat family knight terrors book called dark knightmares.

[@michaelm7344]

yeah. Marvel makes money and dc continues looking inadequent

[@MrVariant]

@@michaelm7344 aquaman 2 made more money than the marvels and madame webb, probably combined. Wasn't good but better lol

[@turtleanton6539]

Vyes

[@turtleanton6539]

​@@MrVariantsony does not count

[@CSionni]

Honestly, the Amalgam omni is the one to get. It’s the true Marvel vs DC. Not little crossovers or just JLA/Avengers. It’s the big one.

[@mikeg2491]

I never read the full run of marvel vs dc in the 90s but my memory is the Amalgam comics were where true creativity was at play and the traditional versus comics were just dialed in.

[@ogkush9057]

Some say get the crossovers, some say get the amalgam. I’ll just get both to be safe.

[@turtleanton6539]

Yeah😮

[@Frank-Einstein-Madman]

Looking forward to both but I was hoping for better looking covers, it's a shame they couldn't get Alex Ross! 😔

[@KDine0might]

Truly appreciate the history behind these, thank you, Do the Omnibuses contain the single issue cover art?

[@comicsaredope]

They should.

[@bahamut1169]

Maybe if this sells well we would get a new take on the amalgam universe?

[@luismonroyRealtor]

10,000 subscribers LETS GOOOO!!!!!!! Congrats fam!!!!

[@BOOGIE23er]

Congrats on 10k!!! Comics ARE dope!

[@sadbutrue2437]

I’ve been hoping for a video like this. Interesting and informative 👍🏻.

[@vincentimbesi3947]

Great overview of the upcoming releases. I wish the JLA/Avengers had been included too! If they really wanted to make it complete they should include the two Wizard of Oz issues along with the never published 3rd issue!

[@texasscifi3431]

Cheap graphic novels I got $90 deal pre order. For Marvel vs DC. Media mail takes MONTHS to get your omnibus in the mail

[@afroscifizianzcomix7836]

Good video BJ Kicks👍

[@basicallykandy9752]

I'll be pre-ordering both but definitely paying a month or two apart.

[@rmirandagrajales]

JLA/Avengers has been reprinted three times. One trade paperback, absolute and the reprint when George Perez passed away

[@awe_flaw_some]

yeah but very few prints

[@tasan215]

Love The Amalgam Age!! Already pre-ordered...

[@rmirandagrajales]

I already preorder both

[@OsloBlack]

Thank you for this. I didn't get to read them when they came out so was trying to decide if I should get this. Think I'll end up getting the Amalgam. Everyone says the stories are kinda eh but I kinda like the silly mashups.

[@dbsasuke]

Love the vid. I do wonder if it slightly premature as we don't know the solicits yet and what they will actually collect. DC still doesn't know what they can print yet.

[@comicsaredope]

that's a good point. The full solicit text isn't out, but there's a pretty good content listing on the actual press release. www.dc.com/blog/2024/02/13/dc-and-marvel-present-the-greatest-team-ups-of-all-time

[@teditube1971]

Delayed until October now

[@jabjab6019]

Long live Amalgam comics 🍪

[@Wap_TV]

I might get the Amalgam age cause I always wanted to read dc vs marvel and the stories of the Amalgan universe

[@brianng8350]

Wait a minute - that is the elusive JLA/Avengers collection with the passing of George Perez? How much did you have to pay for that? Wasn’t it like one copy per store? It is ridiculous why they made it so limited. That is not honoring Mr Perez.

[@Mr.Kow5000]

It was because they rushed to print in time for the money to help George Perez before he passed away. Printers have print jobs slated more than a year in advance. The only way to get the JLA/Avengers trade printed in that timeframe was to bang out a low print run. Higher than 10K would have had to wait too long for the money to benefit GP. Now, that’s no excuse for failing to schedule a bigger print run a year later in a shelf-porn worthy format…

[@Monkey_Boy9602]

I've been dying for an Amalgam Omnibus! I only managed to get the DC side in trades because Marvel's are over $100 each. I'll definitely have to get the other crossover Omnibus a little later.

[@Apollodidyourmom]

Not sure if it is including JLA vs Avengers from the 2000 which would have been cool but if I had to pick one to buy first it would be the marvel Vs DC and wait for a sale for the other book

[@Music1234713]

I've been so on the fence about these since their announcement. I'd love to have all the titles, but Omnibus' seem so large and cumbersome, I can't imagine actually cracking one open and enjoying it. But damn it'll look nice on my bookshelf! Also, why did they have to use that John Romita Jr image for the cover? It's a big turn off for me. IF I do preorder, I'll make sure to use your link though. Thanks for the vid!

[@comicsaredope]

The press release says they’re going to do Direct Market variants, but we haven’t seen them yet.

[@Havok1718]

Get them both 💪😁

[@comicsaredope]

Send me $300 and I’ll do it for content! Lol

[@Havok1718]

@comicsaredope How about you get one I get the other and send it to you for content?

[@turtleanton6539]

Great 🎉

[@TheComicBookReport]

Let’s goooooo

[@robertov05]

Does the Classic Crossover Omni include the Batman vs Hulk story?

[@comicsaredope]

It does!

[@TheEdorizo]

I own as follows Superman ve Spider-Man the original 1976 treasury autographed by the late greats Stan Lee and Neil Adams and Jerry Conway who is still with us i own Dc vs Marvel the original 90's comics and JLA VS AVENGERS and the 4th issue is autographed by George Pérez and the crossovers I own Spider-Man and Batman Silver Sufer and Superman and Daredevil and Batman teen titans ve Xmen all original first prints

[@langreeves6419]

Usually if i read a comic and hate it, I'll see someone online praising it as being "just like the 90s" Sigh Glad i wasnt buying comics in the 90s. So based on what you said about the amalgam, I'll get the dc vs marvel instead

[@awe_flaw_some]

is anything missing in the content except jla avengers?

[@brianng8350]

The Amalgam comics seem to symbolize the 90s excesses - big muscles and boos and crosshatching. That is an easy pass. I was buying comics back then, but don’t remember much of these. They were not really attracting the true talents to work on these books, maybe except Steve Rude. And they are not giving us the best - JLA and Avengers. I don’t mind an oversized artist edition for $200 if it is done well like IDW books.

[@comicsaredope]

Definitely symbolize the 90s excesses. That’s a great way to put it. The DC vs Marvel stuff itself is great though.

[@afifthofjackgaming]

I want to pick this up... I want to pull the triggger but budget is blown. lol I think this a FOMO thing for me

[@indarkestknight1]

Both are incomplete. Not worth it IMO.
