Found this book on Amazon last night and was hoping Omar would do a review in it. And ‘Bang’ saw this video. Thanks Omar! Great video! Now I want to buy this book
Had this in my wish list on Amazon for a few months now and I’m so pumped it’s finally out. And I’m also excited he got to show it off before I pulled the trigger. I was just waiting to get a good look at what was inside completely.
What a beautiful presentation. I’ve had this on my IST wish list for awhile. Looking forward to when they get it in stock. Thanks for showing us the book Omar.
I have to admit, I was not intending to buy this. But after seeing how it's printed in that gold foil pages and white faux leather. I need it now, thanks Omar for breaking my wallet.
David Mack is one of the most underrated artist out there today. I understand that you dislike Kabuki, but for me, it was a revelation. The pictures and pros complimented each other SO well that it started adding a new dimensioned to the story. I love David Mack’s work.
Design of this book is *gorgeous!* Especially those David Mack covers!! Unfortunately the story doesn’t do it for me compared to the novel but I hope people enjoy it! Great video, Omar. :)
I read the book 6? 7? years ago and absolutely loved it and am now on episode 3 of (final?) series 3 of the TV show which is also freakin' amazing! Have had these GNs on my Amazon wish list for ever but now I am totally getting this instead of course!
Hi William, I found a good deal on the 3 HCs, I'm wondering since these books are pretty wordy, if it's difficult to read in the normal sized format. Thanks!!
My finances really don't allow for this at the moment, beautiful as this edition is, so guess I'm sticking with my Headline hardcovers. I believe the previous Dark Horse collected editions also had the Gaiman Library branding on them, the Headline editions don't since it's a Dark Horse thing.
Right now I am totally hooked on that amazing TV show. And I am thinking about buying this (or 3 separate hc books). Do you think that it makes sense? I am loving that story, but I am little bit afraid, that after watching the show, I will be dissapointed with the comics :/
They are all good. Hard choice. I just got Low Deluxe vol 1, been collecting SIKTC in singles since it came out and Neil Gaiman is such a master smh think of him, think of Sandman. If you're asking out of the 3 which route to go. I'm probably aiming for this if you're into mythology more, SIKTC if horror is your thing and all things Remender go for Low. At least I feel you have a chance on waiting for everything except SIKTC slipcase. Hope that helps and good question
thank you, mine arrives tomorrow, it looks like dark horse just ignored this whole issue on a very expensive book, they should've done something other than the "oh well, your loss" attitude for which this has been handled. They lost a customer that's been buying books since 92'. Not many people even read anymore, they should be grateful the few of us enable them to stay in buisness. To think I saved up for this book.
@@brandon17760 yup, a dark horse just ignored it like we can afford books like this regularly........literally ignored it completely......find it on clearance at Walmart clearance, it's not worth the full price with such a shit editor anyway
@@moviepost-mortem0620 I'm pretty sure he knew about it and just didn't say anything, it's most likely why it was skipped over in the video he got almost to it then cut transition to further parts of the book hopefully we get a reprint.
@@hawkdiehard I have the normal hardcovers- haven’t read them yet tho! Hopefully the complete collection will come in soon, and I’ll hopefully upgrade 🤞
The show was a love hate relationship. I really wanted to love it and did for some episodes but then hated some of the characters. Especially the 'dead wife' god, what a horrible character
It’s Gaiman, it’s going to be lots of talking head. I’ll say the photo tracing art really threw me off at first, but then like I mentioned it started growing on me.

Everything that David Mack touches is gold...a bit literally, in this case.

he genius
This is nice going to check this out been slowly getting into that absolute sandman volume 1 going to pick this up looks good
Fingers crossed Norse Mythology will get the same treatment when it’s finished!
Hope so!
Oh yes!
Happy now? 😅
@@marcelo-ramos hah! absolutely😁

@Aroon adaptation, my friend.
Wow, definitely looking forward to this one. I love the novel but haven't got into any adaptations yet.
Hope you enjoy it!
BEAUTIFUL book. Can’t wait to get mine! Thanks for the review, Omar.
We dropped the show as well. Was curious about this as we just got into The Sandman. Sounds like a good read.
Oh dang, somehow I missed this! I have the entire series in single issue, debated getting the hardcovers.
Your safe, it isn't out yet. Omar gets books usually before they are released to the public.
Nice overview. It’s my favorite Neil Gaiman novel as well.
Thanks Omar! I have the 3 hardcovers, but after your review I think I'll pick this up and sell those. This looks like a beautiful book!

Oof, good luck with that last season if you stick with it.
Shit..I recently bought volume 3 of the hardcover collection..would definitely preferred this edition..!!
Had I not owned the 3 hardcovers that collects the whole series, this would have been a definite for me. I really enjoyed the art and story.
Hi William, I found a good deal on the 3 HCs, I'm wondering since these books are pretty wordy, if it's difficult to read in the normal sized format. Thanks!!
Gotta get this book! Knew I should have preordered. It’s so gorgeous
The look is really stunning

they keep pushing this book back I NEED IT
beautiful presentation but the phototracing art saves my purse .... at least for now
Damn! I forgot to buy this collection! Hopefully IST gets a restock of this book soon.
Their not out of stock. The book is brand new. IST just does not have it yet.
Nice never read this but like the book
Butt shots are always ok 👍 lovely video as always!

Which would you choose-American Gods, Low, or Something Killing the Children?
They are all good. Hard choice. I just got Low Deluxe vol 1, been collecting SIKTC in singles since it came out and Neil Gaiman is such a master smh think of him, think of Sandman. If you're asking out of the 3 which route to go. I'm probably aiming for this if you're into mythology more, SIKTC if horror is your thing and all things Remender go for Low.

Hard choice. But SiKTC is easier to get into.
Unfortunately SiKtC slipcase in no available for preorder anymore on CGN. Guess I missed that boat.
@@swampysaurus3711 Not sure for how long but so far only Target still has it available. If it runs out the Deluxe edition is widely available.
Thanks
I dug the Starz original series adaptation of this book😎 I believe I checked out the first 2 seasons, need to get caught up on the third season.
So great, I see your video, end up paying £72 for a book to come from the USA to UK. Thanks. I think. ^^
Oh man it's sold out on book depository site and says that it came out 5th October 😖
I'd buy that for a dollar! Or many dollars, as the case may be.
I love Robocop! That’s what’s we need in a Library Edition format
@@NearMintCondition Or at least a reprint of that Frank Miller/Walt Simonson Robocop vs. Terminator book.
Lots of comments on Amazon talk about a misprint (chapter 16 : a page is repeat so one is missing).
I just ordered mine and then stumbled upon the misprint reviews, do you know if the whole print run was error prone to this misprint?
@@mither240 i don’t know but i’m afraid the file is wrong.

@@mither240 hey how'd it go? Was it misprinted? I'm thinking of getting it on Amazon too
@@brandon17760 yup, a dark horse just ignored it like we can afford books like this regularly........literally ignored it completely......find it on clearance at Walmart clearance, it's not worth the full price with such a shit editor anyway
Wondering if I should read this absolute or read the novel first. hmmm
Are there duplicate pages in your book? I saw another booktuber said his book has printing errors in the form of duplicate pages for this omnibus.
I heard about that too and it’s case by case.
@@NearMintCondition thanks for the reply. Ill try my luck then!
@@NearMintCondition got my copy today from amazon and indeed I got the one with the duplicate pages... 😢

Nope,no longer available on German Amazon and US Amazon does not ship to Switzerland anymore so guess I lost out . Oh well,you snooze,you lose,eh.
I want it
Is the misprint on every copy
Is this book the same dimensions as the Neil Gaiman Library OHCs Dark Horse has also done?
Without the slipcase. Yes
@@NearMintCondition Thanks!
Anybody know where I can get my hands on this? Doesn’t seem to be available anywhere for me here in the UK!
Me too, can't find it in the UK. Disappointing. Might have to get the normal hardcovers instead.
@@hawkdiehard I have the normal hardcovers- haven’t read them yet tho! Hopefully the complete collection will come in soon, and I’ll hopefully upgrade 🤞
This book is sexy.
I need it
This ... is ... sooooooo..... preaty... (drill) ... :P
.... and i wish i could buy it .... :/ but nowhere to be found here in Ireland or no one wants to ship here :/ .....
Has the book sold out already? Cheap graphic nobles and ist don’t have it
No it literally just came out. I think Omar just gets his sooner haha. A lot of vendors don't have it in stock yet.
Comes out official next Wednesday.
The show was a love hate relationship. I really wanted to love it and did for some episodes but then hated some of the characters. Especially the 'dead wife' god, what a horrible character
Season was great... hit and mis the rest.
It was a bad show.
Yeah, enjoyed the 1st season then it started to go downhill with all the script writer issues and everything.
I don't like the main art. Lotta talking heads, photorealism drawn from models gives it a detached feeling. Gonna read the novel one day.
It’s Gaiman, it’s going to be lots of talking head. I’ll say the photo tracing art really threw me off at first, but then like I mentioned it started growing on me.
Yo is that vin diesel on the slipcase?
😂😂
