Captain Comics replied to John Dunbar (the mod of maple)'s discussion DC's Omnibus line - Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age collections"As you all know, my Omnibus priority is stuff that either hasn't been reprinted at all or exceeds that which has already been reprinted in the Archives (all of which I have). But for a little while there I was unemployed, and so let things get…"

"The Coming of ... The Swordsman!"
If you like this swashbuckling fantasy thriller as much as we expect you to, the credit goes to:
Stan Lee, writer
Don Heck, artist
Dick Ayers, inker
But if you're iconoclastic…"
John Dunbar (the mod of maple) replied to Randy Jackson's discussion Randy Jackson reads the Golden Age Batman"The Bat-Man, you say? Sounds like he had potential. Too bad he didn't pan out.
(lol)
I agree, not much of a mystery - neither the murders nor the last page reveal. An OK story at best. It's going to take a few more…"
Rob Staeger (Grodd Mod) replied to John Dunbar (the mod of maple)'s discussion DC's Omnibus line - Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age collections"At the risk of sounding like Tobias Funke, that's a pretty compelling package. It might just be the first Omnibus I pick up!"
John Dunbar (the mod of maple) replied to John Dunbar (the mod of maple)'s discussion DC's Omnibus line - Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age collections"The great thing about these Omniboo is that in the span of only a few years, we are getting issues from various series that are being reprinted either:
- for the first time ever, or
- in color for the first time ever, or
- in a tpb for the first…"
Rob Staeger (Grodd Mod) replied to John Dunbar (the mod of maple)'s discussion DC's Omnibus line - Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age collections"According to the GCD, the Archives got up to volume 10, which covered through issue 92 of the series. So the new Bronze Age volume will be well past them, and it sounds like the first one surpassed them too, ending at 113. "
"Thankyou guys
I'm going straight in with a 'Pre-Order' !!"
Captain Comics replied to John Dunbar (the mod of maple)'s discussion DC's Omnibus line - Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age collections"Have the JLA omniboo caught up with the Archives yet? That is my question, as always. The Comics Cave is so full these days that research is difficult."
Philip Portelli replied to John Dunbar (the mod of maple)'s discussion DC's Omnibus line - Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age collections"Comparing the Avengers to the Justice League is really like the proverbial "apples to oranges". Despite their similarities, the tone, structure, direction and dynamics of the two titles were very different.
Both enjoyable, both…"
Philip Portelli replied to John Dunbar (the mod of maple)'s discussion DC's Omnibus line - Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age collections"Grew up on that run! For straight out super-hero action, yes, of course!"
"I see the next JLA Omnibus is being advertised.
Anyone recommend the issues ? Up to about #137 I believe."
John Dunbar (the mod of maple) replied to John Dunbar (the mod of maple)'s discussion DC's Omnibus line - Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age collections"Cap, everything in the first 3 LSH Archives is collected in the Omnibus. Maybe not a hard and fast rule but in general this may be typical."
John Dunbar (the mod of maple) replied to John Dunbar (the mod of maple)'s discussion DC's Omnibus line - Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age collections"Legion of Super-Heroes: The Silver Age Omnibus Volume 1 was released yesterday (Wed, Aug 2)."

Hello John,
I may be out of line here but in regards with your exchange with Mark, we both know how he feels about Marvel now. We've both know that his opinion has not and probably will not change though I hope it does. Despite previous advice, I have no doubt that he will continue to comment on how "evil" the Marvel heroes are whenever he can.
However, he has had some medical problems and he has left here before thinking no one wants him here. That's something that I am hoping to avoid. I'm not blaming you for ANYTHING, let me make that clear. I am only trying to prevent another round of the same debate that apparently caused hard feelings before.
You won't change his mind and challenging him about it will only make him defensive, as past interactions show us. If steered clear from the topic of Marvel's Post-Civil War period, he seems happier.
Anyway, that's my two cents. Again I'm not faulting you at all. Merely trying to keep the peace, as they say.
With all respect and best wishes,
Philip
