DC UNIVERSE: ORIGINS TP
Written by Mark Waid, Scott Beatty and Len Wein
Art by various
Cover by Alex Ross
Collecting the origins of over fifty characters from Animal Man to Zatanna, including Batman, Wonder Woman, The Joker and many more, from DC’s hit weekly series 52 and COUNTDOWN TO FINAL CRISIS as well as several first seen online, featuring the work of some of comics’ top talents!
Advance-solicited; on sale February 17 • 144 pg, FC, $14.99 US

FINALLY. It's not all those 52 and COUNTDOWN origin back-ups (72 at most, but since there are a few credit pages it'll be less than that) but it's something.

And we get a KOBRA trade too, but it's the first issue of the 1970's series, that series' conclusion from DC SPECIAL SERIES #1 and some newer stuff. A collection of the entire 1970's series would be cool, but this is almost as decent.

[Dr-Strange]

Does anyone know if the new Adventure Comics will be released in trade form?

[Free-Man]

Definately getting Brave and the Bold collection. It has the Kurt Busiek Static issue I've been trying to hunt down!

[rawhidekid]

I might get Sirens but that is it. Didn't like Sirens #3 but looks like it might get back on track. Blackest Night was a snoozer.

[protege]

I'm starting to think it IS the Eradicator joining the outsiders. Hope i'm right. And bye-bye Doom patrol.

[40footwolf]

Huh, Outsiders looks kind of interesting. I might hear what the word is on Didio's writing is like, though, since his Metal Men stuff didn't make me vomit with rage but it didn't really push my buttons, either.

Eek! Blackest Night is going to absolutely kill me come January, and hot off the heels of Christmas, no less. I'll probably have to start saving right now.

On another note, I'm really not too sure of Fabry's Magog covers. I don't think they're bad, and I'd even say #3 and #4 are actually quite good, but they're also awfully mundane looking; they don't jump out at you at all. For a new series like Magog, I just think you need flashier cover art to grab the attention of people surfing the racks who otherwise wouldn't pay the book a second look, because I doubt either the titular character, Giffen, or Porter are going to be able to initially hook enough readers all on their own, unfortunately.
