You needn't worry, it seems like Doomsday Clock will never end. As I said towards the end of our last thread, I'm still disappointed in the ending of Superman and Action Comics double shipping. Which books are still double shipping from Rebirth?

Just because things happened that way in the story doesn't mean it's pro-authoritarian.

Regarding Naomi 3: Is her Dad supposed to be a Rannian? hence her Mum hating the Thanagarian? I've not read any of the stories of those races except the war story in Infinite Crisis.

He's under exclusive contract, and the man's got to eat. The real question is which Marvel character will he write when he switches exclusivity after his contract is up?

I've already read Infinite Crisis, I got the Omnibus for Christmas. The catalyst for me asking the question was that I've just read Superman: Secret Origin (digitally), and it was pretty great, and it seems like Johns went on to write a lot more Superman. So yeah Superman focussed, not just stories where Superman is there or turns up as part of a team.

I got into DC about a year after new 52 launched, so I've read a great deal of the Superman/Batman/Action/Detective/JL of that era, but I appreciate the recommendations from all. The whole "Wally West was MY Flash" posting that's been going around since rebirth has made me look back at the pre N52 stuff, and having read Infinite Crisis I can see why a lot of people were mad about losing all that history. There does seem to be a good flow to the 2000s DC where Identity Crisis (yes I know it's bad or w/e please don't go off here), then Infinite Crisis goes into 52, and then Final Crisis. I'm currently up to 52 issue 3, having bought the two crisis omnibuses for £60 each here in the UK. I'm reading 52 digitally, as the omnibus is around £90, which is a little high for me atm. I mostly asked as I have digital single issues of the action/superman of the 2000s and wanted a reading list for that rather than trade so I could dis-entangle the trade reading order.

I'm sure I remember reading they were being re-launched to be made available everywhere going forward. You can buy the former Walmart exclusives as "Superman Up in the Sky", "Batman Universe", and "Wonder Woman: Come Back to Me". First issues of each are out now.

Professor Dog posted:So I'm mainly a Marvel guy, and the only thing I know Tom King from is his Vision series, which everyone seemed to love (including me). What happened? I haven't read his Batman but it seems to be hated by pretty much everyone. Is it worth taking a look if I liked Vision? I really like his Batman, but this thread in general doesn't. Give it a try.

In this article on BC, they go over the accounced Absolutes and Omnibuses for next year from DC. What's the difference between the newly announced Infinite Crisis Omnibus, and the one I have - ( https://www.amazon.co.uk/Infinite-Crisis-Omnibus-Geoff-Johns/dp/1401283276 ) which I read last year?

catlord posted:Probably because I'm the only one that cares, Azrael only got one trade. A second volume got to showing up on Amazon, but got cancelled. Makes me wonder if DC shouldn't have a print on demand thing for runs that are less likely make money. Something like GMT games does with its P500 programme? You put down a pledge to pre-order and when 500 people do they print 500 and charge the pledgees.

Why won't DC reprint the Robinson Starman series? It seems one of the more critically acclaimed books of its era and it's out of print in all forms and has been for quite a while as far as I can tell.
