The good news is it looks to be over-sized. The bad news is that it isn't planned for release until April 2010! At least, according to Amazon. I hope that will change.

That's well....kinda expected that. DC really takes a longer time to release their HC/TPBs don't they?

It also lists Phillip Tan as an artist, and is 160 pages. Looks like it's going to collect the first 6 issues. Taking that into account, it's only going to be a few months from the last issue to the HC.

Still not overly fast, but not that bad.

I would've got the DKR one if it was released on its own but i detest DKSA so i didn't buy it.

oh man, absolute dark knight is the best absolue ediion theyve done so far IMO. i have that one and ronin and absolute for tomorrow, and ive looked at hush and watchmen.

Dark Knight comes as two volumes, yes? I've been thinking about it, but i really can't stand the sequel and it put me off the whole thing... but i'm still thinking about it...

I can't remember if i even liked Ronin, i haven't read it in at least twenty years but i'm going to have a look for it now.

I just looked it out and it immediately took me back to my teens. I'll try and find time to sit down and read it very soon.

I just quoted myself! Postmodern or what?

Isn't it $25? Unless they have some really amazing extras, that is simply a ridiculous price. I rarely pass up anything I want strictly because of price, and this was an excellent story, but that is too much for two issues.

I picked it up at borders for 15

It's $16.49 on Amazon and worth every cent. There are a few old back-up Gaiman stories too.

Which half of the story did people think was the best?

Slackjaws_ate_my_brain · 08-05-2009, 10:55 PM

Both issues were solid, but it was the end bit of the second issue that really got me
