“How to build the perfect book by DC” 1) Don’t include page numbers ✅ 2) Don’t include covers with issue number ✅ 3) Don’t include a Table of Contents ❌ Well, 2 out of 3 ain’t bad...
@mfolwell
@mfolwell 3 жыл бұрын
Well, it looks like they managed to put the issues in the wrong order too. Don't they get bonus points for that? #5-6 take place after #8. #7 continues *directly* from the end of #4. This appears to have been done because Rags Morales needed a break before the arc was complete, so they had Andy Kubert come in for a separate two-issue "fill in" story. The trades (both original and the later Essential Edition) were mapped in a sensible reading order (i.e. #1-4, #7-8, #5-6), but the contents page suggests they've reverted to publication order for this omnibus.

Another good looking omni I'll pick up. Though it is weird to me that the book collects Action Comics but is named Superman. Kinda wish the stuck with the real name but not a big deal. Here's hoping this sells well and DC does omnis for the full New52 Action Comics run. I also like that it is a thinner omni. I know you like them "thicker than a snickers" but I find the thinner omnis a bit easier to read when sitting back on my couch. Also I agree with your "interesting move comment" about the cover. It makes no sense to split up the front/back cover image with the spine. Hopefully DC can get some new blood into their collections department and up their quality.

I've heard some less than great things about this Omnibus. Reviews I've seen include missing word bubbles on one page in issue 2, it’s not printed in the proper reading order per Grant Morrison. Issues four and five were meant to be read after issue eight which is how they were collected in the trades. For $50 that's kind of a deal killer. I hope DC fixes this. Writer name, page numbers, word bubbles are must fix.

At the same time though, the demon trilogy retailed for $75 and I bought that so the price point has me strongly considering taking a chance on this.

Its a great looking omnibus but DC is just flabbergasting in terms of their carelessness putting together such premium collected editions: Misspelling Sholly Fisch's name, having a table of contents but no page number, and really - the omnibus should be called Superman: Action Comics by Grant Morrison and Sholly Fisch. A good chunk of the content is written by Fisch (and not Finch, lmao). Seems like an easy skip and I'll stick to the three standard sized HCs that at least don't have blunders like this. Thank God they didn't mess up the Morrison Batman omnibus like this. Morrison, Fisch, Morales and the other creators involved deserve better for such a radical and creative reimagining of Superman that harkens back to his Golden Age roots in a modern setting.

I can identify his comics even if there is no writer's name over the book, but this was different, maybe that's why he left writing it after a few issues. But it was a nice simple story, I like it.

I mentioned the mistake of mispelling, the man my viewers let me know about the missing word bubbles on page 8 of issue 2. Then bleeding cool did an article on it and then DC decided to make a recall. That’s cause and effect :) I’ll probably keep my copy. Not the biggest deal to me for just one page.

My understanding was that Morrison was trying to recapture the feeling (updated to the modern era) of the beginning of Superman's published history: the roots of his first appearances in the late 1930s. (Peter David did something similar when he started writing the Hulk.) Superman did things in those original stories like kidnap an arms dealer, draft him into war, and fight alongside him on the battlefield of war for a few weeks so the bad guy could experience/renounce the evils of his ways. Superman was very much a man of the people in those early 1938 stories - with left-leaning (socialist) values. I think the DC editors let Morrison run with it but didn't clue in George Perez or other writers on their Superman stories. This lead to an awkward disconnect as this new/old direction was not followed in the other titles Superman appeared in. I actually LOVE this run of Superman but it starts drifting direction-wise about ten issues in and Morrison might have checked out as his Superman was not "the" Superman for the rest of the DC Universe. DC was never going to allow this version to be the "real" Superman, so it probably should have been an Elseworlds title. A real wasted opportunity - but I understand why some folks don't like this run.

@@NearMintCondition thanks. I found it so frustrating with the way they were collected in the trades at the end. They weren’t meant to be read on their own since they directly affected the main story. Seemed to be a common theme with back up stories and the new 52 trades in general.
