Hello. I have not read many comic books as they're not really much of a thing beyond the collected omnibuses in the back of bookshops where I'm from. Mostly I've bought the collected stories for some interesting stuff on comixology. I've recently read some Batman stories. The Long Halloween, Year One, Dark Knight Returns, and some others. I just read the Court of Owls. I really liked the Owls story so I googled if it had a sequel or a follow up omnibus. I found it's the start of some new continuity I guess? I thought "oh I might try and just read that new continuity" and googled how to do that. I found lists of all these different issues in different series. Buying individual issues isn't really an option for me, I'm really looking for compendiums or omnibuses. On Amazon I can buy these 14 digital books which say they cover 2011-2016. I was just wondering if people knew what was up with those? I had bought a Court of Owls omnibus and then picked up what I thought was volume 2. I guess the first book I bought was an Omnibus of the Owls story and these smaller volumes are just the full run from 2011-2016. I saw in the first two smaller volumes that even though they cover the Owls storyline too they seem to have more in them. I spotted a chapter with Mister Freeze while skimming volume 2 and I don't recall that chapter appearing in the omnibus. I've a screenshot of the stuff I'm talking about below for context!

I I'm not sure if the smaller volumes that are on amazon cover the same issues as that big omnibus you linked. Annoyingly the smaller volumes don't list what issues they gather in the item description or in their own table of contents. However that website you linked lists the chapters in them. I think I'll try and grab that first omnibus on digital if possible. So I guess my core question is if I am just kind of interested in Batman can I read those omnibuses and not worry too much about all the side stuff I might miss? I really appreciate your time! e: using what you sent me I found another site that lists New 52 reading order specifically in terms of trade paperbacks and omnibus stuff. So that's me set. Thanks!
