R.I.P Kevin Conroy. A great actor with such an iconic portrayal of an iconic character. He defined the voice of Batman for so many generations. The voice of vengeance.
Well know I know. 😢
I'm wrecked at the news of this early this morning.
A true legend on and off screen. It didn't matter what kind of Batman he voiced - a grim Dark Knight, a family-friendly Caped Crusader, or a playful Bruce Wayne - he always made us believe. Goodnight, old friend.
Did not know until today that he went to Julliard (sp) with Christopher Reeve.
I am quite distraught right now from this news. He and the rest of the JL cast were at Denver Comic Con a few years ago and I only had the money to get one autograph and I chose Phil Lamar because of Samurai Jack, figuring I'd have plenty of oppurtunities to meet Conroy at a later time.
I'm so glad DC finally printed this. It gives me hope for other great 90s dc books. Like maybe a Kyle Rayner saga omnibus!
I just read this omnibus up to the end of the return of Barry Allen story, and man is it now one of my favourite comic book stories of all time that I have ever read! This run has been incredible so far. Love your videos!
Yay! Finally! I’m halfway through this Omni and I can say I love how Waid develops Wally’s personality. While Geoff’s made me care about the rogues, Waid makes Wally so familiar. Also love the lighter tone which makes for a super fun read. Hopefully we get further volumes including his Impulse run. Definitely this omni is a must have for any Flash fan.
Most wanted omni for sooo long. Awesome. Gotta love that LaRocque artwork in big beautiful format. That image or one other image is exactly what I wanted under the jacket on the boards. LaRocque's splashes and spread pages on RoBA are amazing.
LaRocque's Flash is so underrated, just fantastic.
This looks great, Omar; I look forward to picking it up(RIP my Wallet). But I also don't know if you heard but Kevin Conroy passed away. What a tragedy.
this was not only the best flash run ever this is one of the best runs ever
This is my favorite Flash run and I'm so excited to finally see it collected in an omnibus. Waid made me love Wally West and is the reason why I dropped DC with the new 52 when they tried to erase Wally West. I also think this is when people started saying Barry Allen was more interesting when he was dead. The mythology that Waid built up incredible.
I can’t wait to read this, only problem is there isn’t any news on a vol.2 yet
Yeah. His run is huge. I hope they announce it soon. Otherwise I’ll get the subsequent trade paperback.
I got this Tuesday and can't wait to read it! also been waiting for you to cover this book love watching you cover books that i'm hyped for
I wish Bill Messner-Loebs' run on the Flash got this kind of treatment...
And his Wonder Woman!
Thanks for a great vid again Omar, becoming more and more a Flash fan. But I also felt the need to post how gutted I am about Kevin Conroy. Think it's the feel-good vibe I always get here and your vids feel like being part of a family that I wanted to say how gutted I am about this. Over here in the Netherlands the animated series always was on sunday mornings 7.00 and it was the only thing you could make me wake up early for. I recorded them right away so I could watch them over and over. I think it's what made me into comics. Sigh... :(
Thanks Omar for Another Great Video 👍 I got this coming in my next DCBS Shipment 👍😁💜
Been wanting to read this a long time. Just got my copy. Armageddon 2001 was the first comic book I ever bought. I probably have the Flash Annual somewhere in my collection.
Finally, i was waiting for this review 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Getting mine next week. Alan Davis cover! Can’t wait!!
I enjoyed your overview, Omar! 👍
I preordered this on CGN and I cannot wait to reread ! ALSO! Getting the DM cover :D
I have never read this, but am looking forward to it.
I've gotten some DM variemt covers from IST shipped to NZ. Hickman FF Vol. 1, MK Vol. 1, Roger Stern Omni, MK H, B & H, SW DV Gillen Omni. Yes it's annoying not abIe to get all the ones I'd like because of price, but hey that's what its like living outside the US. I like the idea behind them, that they're supporting the direct market in the US that's cool to see from big componies like DC and Marvel
Waiting on IST to ship my DM copy! Can’t wait to read it
I have the first book of the newer trades, gotta upgrade and read on with this omnibus
One of my all time favourite ‘runs’ in comics. Really enjoyed Mark Waid’s take on Wally, and the book had a stellar run of artists and colourists. I loved Mike Wieringo’s art right out of the gate! Disappointed with the cover that came with the standard edition so I will have to also grab the DM variant. I really hope DC use the Flash #0 cover for volume 2. Thanks Omar!
I have the original trades but I am soooo tempted to pick up the omnibus.
They should make a Kevin Conway behind the scenes omni type book. Cant believe thr news he passed away. His voice was truly batman as James Earl Jones is Darth Vader.
I can’t wait to read this book.
One of the most wanted omnis for me
I bought thick trades as they came out. As DC finished the run, they announced the Omni. I will find it hard to justify purchasing the Omni at this point. Maybe at some point in the future . . .
My copy arrived yesterday. The Flash is my 2nd favourite DC character ( after the 6/10 detective ! )
I'm so glad that your Who-must-not-be-named is included there. The TPB didn't collect the crossover.
I think it included issue 40. But not all the GL.
@@siniquezu yea i kinda wonder who he is too
Loveeeee you channel. You have me spending soooo much $$$ buying omnibus' left and right haha
I’m so sorry, but glad to have you here!
@@NearMintCondition It's so tough NOT buying. Also, I reviewed Black Panther: Wakanda Forever on my channel through hand drawn illustrations. Given you like art, feel free to check it out 😀
Best flash arc
The main cover kinda hurts since this is Wally's run. Glad I was able to get hands on the variant
Don't know why they reversed it when it was first marketed as the dm variant would be standard
Great run. The best flash run?
I wonder if they publish Golden Age Flash omnibus someday. I thin there were some plans, but it didint work out.
A Golden Age omnibus was in the catalogue at one point, but never made it to solicitations.
Just wanted to post about Conroy since the news has been out since morning but now HR is confirming.
Only story I’ve read inhere is Born to Run. Which I think is fantastic
I had no idea there was a new Flash Omnibus coming out. I'll have to pick this up. Any word on why we have yet to receive the Bronze Age run? It seems odd they finished Silver Age and then nothing.
Nothing yet sadly. It seems things are still on hiatus.
Just got the DM.. Not too sure what makes it any better.. They run the same price?
I preordered this on OPB. Geoff’s run is great, Waids run is AMAZING !!
I'm not familiar with this run. Have the johns one, though. How do they compare? Would u recommend.
4:40 I understand why you don't mention that person but I can't look it up because I dont know what to search and how to find which person..
if i wanted to read the whole series would the TPB be best even if some might be harder to find/mapping issues? how many were there 8 or 9? Great video btw!!
I believe there were 8
Yeah believe it’s 8 trades with a Grant Morrison/Mark Millar volume in between Waids Vol 5 and 6
Looking forward to giving a read! I already own Geoff Johns run but I haven't read it waiting to start with Waids run.
I just picked it up for $50 at my LCS
RIP Kevin Conroy.
I’m so frustrated that for the trade paperbacks of this run that only book 6 and 7 are impossible for me to find. I just can’t wait that long for volume 2 so idk what I’m gonna do lol
Yeah it really sucks. I managed to get 6 at my LCS but no chance I find 7. Probably will just sell off all the ones I have and get all the omnis
Have you ever reviewed "Flash the Silver Age Omnibus HC Vol 03"??
Oh no, I just saw that Kevin Conroy passed away. What devastating news, first Pacheco now him. Such an awful week and year for losing beloved legends. I hope he knew how much he meant to so many of us, I like to think that he did. RIP.
How many volumes to collect the rest?
Omar says in the beginning he prefers mapping in this omni compared to trades but does he ever address what the difference is? I watched whole video and maybe I just missed it?
Also has the latter part of Bill Loebs run ever been collected? Particular the span from like 35-61? Those are rock-solid stories. They should do a couple more omnis collecting the first five years of this series.
Omar discusses the mapping at 19:20. And I don't believe Loebs' run has been collected, no.
@@bryceabraham2903 ah! Thank you so much 😊
Man, the price is pretty high for barely over 1,000 pages. I've always wanted to check this run out but don't know if the omnibus is worth it.
IST has it half price for this week, so 75 USD
RIP Kevin Conroy the best to ever do it.
We need the Wally West series collected from issue 1.
Have you read any of the current Flash comics from Jeremy Adams? He is doing a marvelous job with Wally West!
@@Carlos-xz3vi I'll check it out. Thanks for the recommend.
Will second the Jeremy Adams recommendation. It is low-key the best monthly DC is currently publishing
That awful 3 running flash cover was supposed to be the DM cover (the wally cover was shown months ago as the standard cover), but DC change it at the last minute and swap them, now the 3 flash is the standard and the wally cover is the DM.
It IS awful. Wally's build looks like he couldn't even run to the bathroom. But there's more than one reason it looks really bad.
@@needfoolthings Yes! for instance:
- They don't look they are going fast
- Wally, the protagonist, is in the back
- They have weird proportions (like in knightfall covers)
- They have goofy smiles, like in a cartoon
- Both Wally's arm are on his left side
- There is little to no muscle in Jay and Barry's legs
- The building and street are dull with no details
- Windows show no reflection
- They don't have a shadow
Just awful
Absolutely - same thing, I ordered what I thought was the standard and now the "standard" is the DM - the 3 Flash cover is brutal - what the hell is the matter with DC? And I'm not as familiar with the run, but why don't either of the covers feature Wieringo art? Is there something significant about the two covers they chose that I don't understand?
Has the contents of Flash volume 2 announced yet?
Not yet.
Can't wait to get my copy, Wally and Waid together, there's just nothing better. Really hope future volumes contain Waid's Impulse issues as well. Thanks for the great review, Omar.
How many Omni's will there be?
@@stephendavis6606 Probably 3 or maybe 4 if they include all of Waid's Impulse issues.
I'm so Hyped that we're getting Waids run Collected again
Hopefully the Omnis collect more (like Flash GL the Brave and the Bold and Flash Wild Wests)
Is there gonna be vol. 2?
Yes!
Glad this review got released today with the other sad news, rip Mr Conroy. I grew up with Barry but wasn't a fan of the character until Waid's Wally. This book, Kyle Rayner as GL, and David's Aquaman were my staples for a while. I refuse to read Heroes in Crisis just hearing about how they did Wally.
❤️❤️❤️
Anyone have an idea about how many volumes this run should be?
About three volumes
Vol 1 goes from 62 to 91, but Waid's run goes up to 129 and a few later issues. So I'm guessing one more bigger omni (near 1500 pages) or two more slimer omnis.
Thanks folks
Does this take place immediately after crisis on infinite earths? Like is this Wally taking over after Barry gets sucked into the speed force?
No, that’s the Mike Baron run. It’s only in trade right now. Savage Velocity.
@@NearMintCondition yeah I see that. Then William-Messner Loebs took over? But judging by your over view the true post crisis reboot starts here
@@DefyantFoxV2 There is a Year one story is found here. well, for Wally.
man this omnibus is gone now man. i was back into collecting omnibus after a year of not buying
RIP- Kevin Conroy. The Animated Batman.
As to The Flash Omnibus by Mark Waid Vol 01.
I’ll be First in line for my copy.
Signed,
AOB,
( formerly known as, what else? )
⚡️KidFlash! ⚡️
Better…
While I love the Geoff johns flash run. I think the waid run is better
Not a huge Waid fan. Not just because he's a total nut, but I think he is a bit overrated. Like I like Kingdom Come, but it's not anything special to me. Having said that, I love The Flash! And I do remember liking what I did read of Waid's run. I'll probably pick up the retail cover. Thanks, Omar!
If it wasn't for the fact that Waid is a disgusting human being, I would buy this omnibus in a heart beat.
