Conan The Barbarian By Busiek & Nord Omnibus Review
Some of those early stories are model examples in imagination and concision. A truly wonderful collection that finishes on the first and probably best appearance of the Destroyer. Nothing that followed, not even the epic Simonson run, bettered what can be found here.
Thank you for video.
Not the best stuff but the art is great. Artists knew how to draw people.
That book is a piece of Art.
It was and is ground breaking and wont sit well with some because of the graphic content. I prefer the mature graphic content and how it did not fall into the superhero mainstream. Those who don't wont like it. This is not for the weak stomach or for mainstream batman and spiderman fans.
I have all but the Tomb of Dracula and Sensational She-Hulk omnibus. I also have the later printing of Dr. Strange with the white cover, but would have preferred Marvel re-released the variant you have.
I have all of those! :o
Nice overview. I picked up the two Captain America volumes a couple years back and then in the last year I grabbed the Human Torch and the two Sub-Mariner golden age volumes. Was thinking about this one, bit it looks like 80% would be a double dip for me.
Hi Michael, let me recommend you The Hunger and The Dusk. Cheers.
Hey 👋 new sub
@@luxuriousmindset1906 thank you, I appreciate it!
The story telling isn't as good. I agree with you about that. But there is something interesting about how they were throwing everything against the wall to see what stuck.
Yeah it's definitely an interesting experience to read it for the historical value
I wish I had the money for those three books.
I arrived to the part when jess and gwen are talking and reading the last comic before it, nothing makes sense. I've been searching a lot of web sites video and nothing explain why it does happen. Can you help me? In wich comic did they meet to be together?
@@danielmunoznaranjo8887 they first met in the Spider-Verse event which takes place just before this series
@@TheComicBookTrove but how does she get to 616 earth? Sorry for my english i know a little bit
@@danielmunoznaranjo8887 no need to be sorry! Gwen gets given a device that lets her move between her world and the 616 as a result of Spider-Verse and she continues using it during this series and afterwards
@@TheComicBookTrove thank you, you are the BEST 🙏
Some elements from this masterpiece were incorporated into the (current) mainstream DC Continuity, such as the Losers in Dinosaur Island (but with Captain Storm actually SURVIVING rather than being killed among his partners) or, most recently, the John Henry incarnation (now called John Henry, Jr., which is also Steel's great-uncle).
Nice that the FF Omnibus includes the letters but others like Powerpack does do include them.
It is nice to read parts of the stories in the Marvel Saga which shows how the other comics go together. Also, a magazine called Dynamite. which is published by Scholastic had part of their original story and had questions and answers and where i first heard of. i saw a cartoon show before I read Marvel Saga. I also have the index series.
Now is an bigger version of this from TASCHEN MARVEL Comic Library saw some videos of them.
There is and that's an awesome looking book but that does have less content than this omnibus. I think the Taschen one collects the first 20 issues and this collects the first 30
Great review! Really enjoyed it
Halfway done and this is a fun read so far 👍
I want to get this one in September of 2024 when they reprint it, in June 2024 they are having a Mark bagley omnibus which takes place after Eric Larsen Omnibus, get both for like $75.00, a piece.
Yeah great it's getting reprinted! And I'm definitely getting the Bagley omnibus, there's some good stuff in there!
Have you read Batman The Aventures Continue comic?
No, is that the Batman & Robin one?
I picked this book up a little while ago. I play FFXIV, and love the game. This book is exactly what I want from some video game worlds. A tome of comprehensive lore and backstory of the games world. I ordered the second volume too. I would love for Square Enix to publish a similar book about Valisthea (the world of FFXVI).
There's also a third volume now! I have it but haven't got around to doing a video on it yet
I've got this very book albeit in a very special one of a kind edition. That's all I'm saying as I don't want it nicked...
Well that's intriguing! Sounds like it must be cool though!
Thanks for the overview! I have the OHC and I've been going back and forth about upgrading to the omnibus. I think I'll stick with the OHC. Save my pennies for the other 20 omnis that I need to get 😮💨
Gotta go with the books you know you'll appreciate most
World war hulk was great some of the tie ins were a lot of fun! Hopefully we get a continuation in omnibuses with this with the pak and Parker run
Planet Hulk is one of my all time favorite comics. I felt in comparison WWH a bit of a lit down, and really don't like JRJ art. That plus non chronological story mapping means a swerve on this one for me. I keep my TPB of it for my general Marvel event collection.
Yeah I get it, it is a bit frustrating how this one is mapped
I have the first print of this world war hulk i love this cover i have the stranded edition cover both of the covers are incredible and this omnibus is incredible aswell 10/10 for me
Best Aquaman in history, probably Johns greatest feat, against the advice of all at DC, he fought to be given Aquaman, being told it was a waste of time, He changed public perception towards Arthur Curry. This run was the basis for the Billion plus box office movie which Johns himself wrote. Mera is awesome, as Johns says, truly underestimated character, who is potentially among DC's strongest female characters. Aquaman is lucky, his enemies cannot target his love interest, they would regret going after the Queen. Only pity that this memorable Aquaman run was cut short, Johns has planned a much longer run, but petty people at DC stopped him, probably out of spitefulness for proving them wrong.
Do you prefer the first print of DV or the new deluxe edition?
These deluxe editions are my favourite format I've owned these stories in
I remember first being exposed to the animated film. After watching that I wanted to buy the original comic story. Might make a self-purchase for my birthday in the near future. Thanks for the spotlight.
Is the film good?
@@TheComicBookTrove Yeah all these years later it really holds up nicely.
@@astrostar49 ah cool, I might have to check that out then
This for me is the magnum opus of DC!
Definitely an instant favourite for me, I did a list of my top DC deluxe editions a while back before I'd read this but if I was to do it now this would definitely make the list
This is not only my favorite comic book of all time it is better than Watchmen.
I bought omnibus of green lantern🎉 i have a question i saw some reviews that say GLC by Tomasi/Gleason is better than johns run?? And this one is necessary to read together with johns run? I heard cause they complete each others i heard,what do u think?
You can read this run without having to read GLC, there's some crossovers between them at times but this is really Hal Jordan's story. GLC just happens to also be really good and shows what a lot of other characters in the corps are doing during this time so in a sense you get the complete green lantern picture by reading both
This is such a great story from one of the greats. Darwyn Cooke really understood those characters and we see that here. I can't imagine the kinds of stories we'd be getting if he were still with us. For me, this is the way I'd like to see these superheroes-sure, they have their personal issues but in the end, it's all about hope and doing things for the greater good. And on top of that, this also jump-started my appreciation for the Silver Age for both DC and Marvel.
No Brasil saiu ano passado
I like to read this after DC The Golden Age, for me it's like a combined story, a beginning and an end. Both excellent books, some of my favourite stories from DC.
Sounds like another one I should check out at some point
As someone new to the scene of the Omnibuses, I'd about kill to see a reprint on the Tomb of Dracula V 1 and 2.
I know what you mean, they reprinted volume 1 a few years ago although that's out of print again now, and they've never done a second printing of 2
I love the incredible hulk he's my favourite superhero ever i got volume 1 it is incredible and also volume 2 is amazing i got this one aswell hopefully they make volume 3 and also i would love them to do a omnibus of the bruce jones the incredible hulk run i have both of the hardcovers hulks my favourite
I feel very sure they'll do a volume 3 and most likely a Bruce Jones one at some point too
I love these books!! Just bought them all recently👍🏻. Thanks for sharing to everyone!
I see the comments were moved over to this gray section where the video menu was. I thought it was just for one video about Jannis Inian and saw that was for another song and even this one. A big change for You Tube since changing the like symbol to a thumbs up . Make me not come back here. Not a good frame. Face book and Yahoo change like that and glad I did not have to get used to another look. here. Thought another site at first or clicked on something that changed the format like when making the size of video screen change. Having the comments on the bottom and the other videos on the right was much better. Maybe doing an Ian Musk. the Muske of You Tube. or at least he did not change the way out of X. Should have been put up for a vote or ask we like this version of the page. The end of an era.
Just read the single issues, but stopped Decided to wait for collected editions, Just ordered vol 1 It’s a wonderful read
Can we get a collection tour? 👀
Hello, can you let me know if the war of the green lantern is included here?
Did you read the four volumes?
Actually I got part way into volume 2 ages ago then got distracted and I'm yet to get back to it
I love the art work on these issues especially with George perez as you said, but seeing how these pages are so see through I wish marvel didn't print them at that Turkish printer,, because they feel very icky and you can see through all the pages
Vol 5 is out now
Yeah I just uploaded a review of that one too
Nice review man! Always great stuff here at the trove. 💪📚 I started my read-through a few months ago! I’m in vol 4 now but I’ve got this one waiting ha 😅
I have it and love it
Got it. 3rd should be good.
Yeah really hoping for a third volume!
The best Thor run of all. I remember i would look forward to Simonson's Thor every month back in the 1980's. I normaly re-read this run after every few years, that's how good it is.
