I agree with you Omar. He is the worlds Greatest Modern Detective. Personally I would say he and Sherllock are preety equal to there eras. I own a few copies of Detective 572. One of the Greatest covers.
I remember getting the first three issues and then I stopped. I love how you explained the story of the first issue Omar! I'm hooked, and I will buy it. I will NOT let this one slip away! Thanks Omar!
The latest matte paper… while I will say it holds the colors well and helps the omnis lay over nicely, I’d much prefer the old thicker pages. It’s a solid reprint if you don’t mind the step down in paper stock. Thanks Omar!
Omar ...RESPECT .amount of stories you need to remember....to put it all together...I'm still confused..and keep watching your reviews. Great thanks for a grand job ❤
Hi Omar, Just started watching your channel this year and I love it. You guys are great. I have read comics my whole life on and off through the seventies and eighties and became a serious collector from about 88 through to 2000 having to give up due to going from just a few marvel titles to both marvel and DC Image Dark Horse and indie companies, working at a comic shop from 94 to 2000 didn’t help either with t-shirts and action figures lol. I got to the point of spending $ 300 plus a week and fell 3 years behind in reading so I quit. Bought traded and epics here and there but nothing too extravagant. Till this past weekend. My wife and daughter sent me out for my birthday and Xmas gifts. I was going to get AVX but that was $325 in store so I said nope. Then I remembered your over view here and your mapping for this book and I have the Snyder books leading up to this so Batman Eternal is my first Omni and it’s all due to you and your channel. I also watched your Deadly Duo overview and bought that also, Marc Silversti is awesome . I also bought the X-Men Proteus Epic as well. Thank you for your great channel and passion for comics and helping me get back into them. It may not be my last Omni🙏😁
I was holding out on the dceased deluxe edition on hopes of an omnibus with glossy paper. But if they use that more matte paper now I'll just get the deluxes.
Man. I liked this story, but it went on for sooooo long. The art shifts were also a problem. Like, any issue with Fabok was fine, but he definitely wasn't doing 52 issues straight. I recollect every Batman villain is in here. Joker is hiding in the story--he's there, but you have to know where.
I'm just so unbelievably disappointed that this is printed on matte paper when the last one had nice thick glossy pages. They should have reduced the price because you know it cost them a lot less to produce. I'm not opposed to the idea of matte in an omnibus but only when the original stories were printed on matte paper as it retains that authenticity and the original colors. Definitely not the case here.
Same thing happened with Super Sons. The new edition uses matte pages, but the earlier edition had gloss (but didn't have all the issues). I considered keeping my old edition because it looks and feels so much nicer. But ultimately decided to keep the new edition because I wanted everything in one volume and didn't have space for both on my shelf. I know printing costs have gone up a lot, but for $150 msrp we should get a high quality product.
Absolutely. I skipped out on the newest edition simply because of money at the time and all of the releases around it and now knowing that it had matte pages I feel better about missing it.
You don’t understand how much I needed a notification from you this morning Omar. Thank the lord
Hope your day goes well/ or gets better 😊❤️
I hope you’re doing okay, brother.

Happy to see this reprinted, I passed the first time, then BM&R eternal....here I am!
'Damn Batman and his Eternal darkness! So many pages that are all dark' 🤣
I played that part a few times lol
Another incredible looking Bat Omni this year 😍🦇👏

Thank you so much for the kind words and being here.
Picked it up the day it dropped. Really looking forward to reading this. Thanks for the great review.
Got this the first time around, loved it, great book.
Omar loving the reprint, i will gladly take that rat trap off your hands 🤣 Awesome video as always brother!
I feel conflicted on this one. I really liked the first few issues of this, but the middle just becomes a slog to me. Not sure if I'm gonna pick it up
I was holding out on the dceased deluxe edition on hopes of an omnibus with glossy paper. But if they use that more matte paper now I'll just get the deluxes.
I've been waiting for this! This will decide if I get it or not
Beautiful book 😀
Why do ppl not like the matte paper? Just curious what ppl think…
I like glossy but I also like matte love the feel and texture of the paper

Was Mr. Freeze in it?
@@Iam123-i5j Don't remember. It's been years. So, maybe?
Why DC reprint again Batman Eternal and why not Contagion/Legacy
Must read for Snyder’s run or do Batman Omni 1 & 2 stand really well on their own?

Do you think there’s any chance to arkham saga reprint ?
That's the one I really want, playing the games again and really would love to get the saga omnibus
@@motivational7531yeah same here that’s the one I want!
The new print is slightly darker
Not gonna get the omnibus, but I did like this story
Is the original printing paper, glossy? Because the reprint paper is matte paper. Omar forgot to mention about it on this video.
I didn’t. I talked about the different paper stock.
@@NearMintConditionsorry my bad, it was at the end. Thanks for the great review as always!
