    Just answered this question in the Marvel thread so figured I'd bring it over here for the DC version:

    What are your top 5 Omnibuses you'd like to see?

    Mine, in no particular order:

    1) O' Neil's THE QUESTION
    2) Ostrander's THE SPECTRE
    3) Ellis' PLANETARY
    4) Simone's SECRET SIX
    5) Rucka's CHECKMATE

    Honorable Mention: Grell's GREEN ARROW, Ostrander's MARTIAN MANHUNTER, Ostrander's SUICIDE SQUAD, Johns' JSA, Waid's FLASH, JLA starting with Morrison, Simone's BIRDS OF PREY, Brubaker's CATWOMAN, Giffen's JLI

    Other: GOTHAM CENTRAL though I already have the 4 HCs, and maybe HELLBLAZER

    Well I own the original issues of the Question, and Grell's Green Arrow and the annuals and minis...And absolute planetary....so i'd be pissed, but happy, if they omnibuse'd them. I doubt it though. Maybe planetary.

    I'd be all over Ostrander's MM and SS and John's JSA(has to be announced soon) and JLA. Haven't they started release ultimate collection-like books for Bru and Cooke's Catwoman?

    No real order:

    1. Gotham Central, trades are easy to find but I'm holding out for a niceoversized hc!
    2, Johns JSA, everyone raves about this maybe being Johns' best work so I want to see f it is worth the hype
    3. JLA Morrison thru Kelly. I would also be fine if they just continued with the deluxes thru this era.
    4. Johns Superman
    5. Morrison Animal Man
    6. Secret Six by Simone. Five is too few to choose!


    That's just some of the stuff I haven't read yet. Lord knows i would be a sucker and rebuy things like Batman by Dini, Nightwing by Dixon, or GL by Johns if they got a nice omni!

    Only thing I would really be interested in Omnibus is Johns GL from Rebirth to Blackest Night. That's about it, stuff I want oversized:


    Gotham Central needs an Omnibus/Absolute/Deluxe.

    Authority, seeing as I'll never afford the Absolute.



    Planetary is a good size for an Omnibus, more people deserve to be able to get it seeing the Absolutes went OOP so quick.

    Seconded.

    On another note, my copy of NTT Vol 2 just arrived. Pristine condition from Amazon, oh my! Binding looks to be tighter than in that video that was posted a little while ago.

    On another 'nother note, I've been collecting omnibuses and OHCs for 3 months and I've filled 3/4 of a shelf. The speed at which my collection has grown is scary....

    Definitely would like a Gotham Central Omni.

    I would also like a Planetary omni. Vol 1 is OOP and expensive. Plus, I prefer the omnibus size over the Absolute size.

    I am really hoping to someday soon we"ll get Morrison's Batman run in an omnibus.

    I'd also second John's JSA run. I could go for quite a few different Batman omnibuses, but I'm thinking we'll only get larger trades (like Knightfall and No Man's Land) instead. It seems as though Spider-man's going to go the same way as Batman with large trades instead of over-sized hardcovers. Unfortunately, Spider-man and Batman are my favorites.

    I hope the omnibus all of Dixon's Batman and Bat-Family runs....that'd be like 10 omnibuses though....

    For my top 5 dream editions:

    Kirby's New Gods/Fourth World (4 Absolutes) - Oversized Kirby, please! On something better than tissue paper, preferably.
    Morrison's Doom Patrol (4 Deluxe) - Stories are more arc based so would prefer to see four deluxe over two omnibus.
    Moore's Swamp Thing (2 Omnibus) - New HC are decent, but...
    Wildcats (3 Omnibus - Alan Moore/Lobdell, Casey volume 2, Casey - Year 3.0) - It's pretty damn good when the Alan Moore written stuff is the weak link. Oversized Phillips and Charest? YES!
    Authority (2 Absolutes - Reprints) - Missed the boat on these. Really only interested in the Quitely but gotta match! ;)

    I would imagine the Kirby one will likely never happen. Doom Patrol may have a shot if The Invisibles does well (and I'm guessing it will considering all of Morrison's recent work continues to be published in an oversized format). Swamp Thing will probably see the light of day once they've milked the current HC/TPB. Yeah, Wildcats will likely never happen. I have no idea on the Authority - I'd like to say yes, as DC usually does a good job at keeping their Absolutes in print, but this one has been gone for a while.

    I agree but hell if I understand why. Could they really not make a profit off of HCs of two of the most popular super hero books?

    Whoah whoah whoah, I can understand it on the Marvel forum where omnibus and omnibus length oversized hardcovers are released like candy, but isn't 5 a bit ambitious, sonsidering that is about the yearly quota for DC for Absolutes + Omnibus? :)

    My top 5 - in no particular order: Oversized or omnibus, doesn't matter to me. I like oversized books.

    1. Johns' JSA run
    2. JLA (90s) and don't leave out Waid and Kelly. I love the deluxes (have all four) but it's a shame they only collected Morisson's work. I hope it's not because Waid and DC don't get along.
    3. Simone's Birds of Prey
    4. Nightwing - I would be very happy with for big collections like the recent Knightfall and NML trades
    5. Birthright - this would be a cool oversized HC. Great art and story.

    Would like to see DC release the last Manhunter trade (backups from SoG I think). That was such a great series and run by Mr. Andreyko.

    I think DC's omni count this year is around 7 or 8...absolute count is around 4 or 5? Big year for DC

    Biggest reason we don't have Flash omnibuses by Waid is because DiDio doesn't get along with Waid
