Batman Year One and Killing Joke are my favorite absolutes purely for the preservation of the original colors of the books. Year One has great extras in the back too.
I don’t have any absolutes but you guys definitely make me want to go and snatch some up! Slowly making my way through your past content and loving what I’m watching
@@TBATB I’d like to get something X-Men. Either stuff from the 70’s/80’s or Age of Apocalypse. Not sure if it comes in omnibus form if absolute. Still learning
@@RunMeThrough absolutes are usually just a DC thing. (There are some exceptions). Marvel has an over sized format not in a slipcase called Gallary editions and they have some Xmen ones of those.
Newly subbed! Awesome collectibles! I've not have a chance to go through New Frontier, but it's definitely on my to read list. Kingdome Come was one of my all-time favorites. Great vid, loved the stuff you showed off from your PC
I only have two Absolutes and I got them both over the last year from Ollie's! I thought about the Swamp Thing ones, but some of the recolored pages seem a little too radical. I like to think of stores from the era they originated and my brain tells me "something is not right."
I think for me since it was my first time reading it I was okay, but I kind of wish it wasn’t re colored. Other then that the oversized and the quality of the absolute are amazing!
Three Jokers isn't my favorite story. It was better than I thought it would be, though. But I effening love Jason Fabok's art!!! He's one of my favorite artists. Great list! Keep up the good work!
I have a video review and why I think three jokers is pretty misunderstood and I also have an updated absolute list that you should totally check out this video you watched was one of my first video so I feel like I’ve come a long way as a TH-camr
@@TheComicBookReport one that I was so tempted to put on the list was another Alex Ross book called absolute justice league worlds greatest superheroes
I would add two to the list. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Planetary. The two I would probably replace them with are Batman Hush and Crisis on Infinite Earths
Instead of telling you about my favorite Absolute, how about I tell you about my LAST favorite Absolute I own. Superman: For Tomorrow by Jim Lee and Brian Azzarello. That's definitely a turn your brain off and look at the pretty Jim Lee art kind of book.
Hey! I have covered it in a few videos but the best answer is an omnibus is the same dimensions as a deluxe edition so slightly bigger then a standard comics and it is hardcover. An omnibus is usually huge covering a whole run or everything down by a creator. An absolute is even bigger, it comes in a slipcase, it has a ribbon, and usually it has the most amount of extras. Absolutes usually cover less then in an Omni. Often times absolutes cover the timeless classics that standalone. Think of it as the ultimate production of DC’s best stories, while an Omnibus tries to be the most complete collection.
It’s an early video so please be kind haha but if you look for my how to collect sandman or how to collect watchmen videos we do a great job of breaking it down!
"Even if Alan Moore casts a spell on you"😂
He is a certified wizard haha
Batman Year One and Killing Joke are my favorite absolutes purely for the preservation of the original colors of the books. Year One has great extras in the back too.
I complete agree!!! Got to preserve those original colors. I own killing joke, and jordan my cohost owns year one!!!
Ur mom got great extras in rhe back
Amazing list bro ! I think that Absolute Swamp Thing run is LEGENDARY.
Easily one of my favorites!!
These are absolutely great picks, Jake!
Hahaha great joke! Is there one you would have picked to put on the list?
I don’t have any absolutes but you guys definitely make me want to go and snatch some up! Slowly making my way through your past content and loving what I’m watching
You should! Is there a certain absolute you hope to get someday?

@@TBATBthere is wolvweine adamtium or whatever
@@RunMeThroughsorry there are no x-m3n but plenty of batman and other dc
Found you through Reddit. Keep up the great work! Okay, now back to watching the video, i wanted to comment before i forgot lol
Hey, thanks! I appreciate the support!! It means the world to us!!

Thanks for the sub! ❤

I've not yet cracked open my Thor by Walter Simonson omnibus, but from what I've seen, I think those colors may be a little better to handle for me.
Three Jokers isn't my favorite story. It was better than I thought it would be, though. But I effening love Jason Fabok's art!!! He's one of my favorite artists. Great list! Keep up the good work!

@TBATB i believe I've seen the Absolute list. However, I didn't know that you did an overview of Three Jokers. I'll definitely look that up! Thanks!

It is a great success that they have enabled subtitles in Spanish. Thank you.
Ah thank you!
I have yet to get an absolute edition but your video has me wanting to ha
Great video man 💪📚
Which absolute would you get first? Or is there a story that you wish you could get in absolute that isnt an absolute already?
@@TBATB such a hard choice. The kingdom come would be tempting
@@TheComicBookReport one that I was so tempted to put on the list was another Alex Ross book called absolute justice league worlds greatest superheroes
I really enjoyed this video very much. Great selection and I am sold with Absolute Fourth World. Awesome!
Thank you! This was an early video for me. You should check out my updated version of this list!
@@TBATB Right… I will check it out. Awesome as always.👍🏼
Which edition of Kingdom Come is better: Absolute or 20th Anniversary?
Absolute 100%
Im on it😊😊😊
Thanks for the support!!!
Great absolute collection.
Thanks! Absolutes are my favorite!
I would add two to the list. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Planetary. The two I would probably replace them with are Batman Hush and Crisis on Infinite Earths
At the time I didn’t own planatary! I should do a sequel to this video with my new picks!
Absolute Swamp Thing are MUST HAVES💯
Dude their is a 4th I didn’t know about!!!
@@TBATB yeah the Bronze Age omnibus material 👍🏻
@@drocksteadyreviews yeah the 4th absolute is by Len Wein I own it now but didn’t have it at the time of this video
@@TBATB I have the Omni so I passed on it but I may have to snatch it up someday
@@drocksteadyreviews I heard the coloring isn’t the best in the Omni but I’ve never seen it tbh. Does it look okay?
Absolutes are the best! I really need to pick up New Frontier...I've never read it 😬
I’m obsessed with them!! But dude!!! That story is so good!! I can’t wait for you to read it someday!!!
Great top ten! Would you be open to do a Batman absolute top ten?
I recently did a top 10 Batman stories, but I can see if I have 10 Batman absolutes
new sub nice list
Thank you so much!!
Can I be included in the next roast?
Transmetropolitan needs an reissue of some sort. I need it.
It was announced!
@@TBATB thank god. My all time favourite
Instead of telling you about my favorite Absolute, how about I tell you about my LAST favorite Absolute I own. Superman: For Tomorrow by Jim Lee and Brian Azzarello. That's definitely a turn your brain off and look at the pretty Jim Lee art kind of book.
I need more Superman Absolutes! Superman for all seasons is coming out soon and that looks tempting!
@@TBATB I think that all seasons is my favorite Superman story. I’ll be picking that up for sure 👊
These are awesome but for those of us who don’t have them, how often do they get reprinted?
Absolutes sadly go a lot longer with out reprints. For my DC omnibus video I only Included in print omnibus!
So, does the new Superman For All Seasons Absolute get bumped up into ykur top 10 ? 😊
I really need to do an updated list!
@@TBATB Cool !
What is the difference between an absolute and an omnibus? Is it presentation?

@@TBATB Got it. Thank you for your very precise answer.
It’s an early video so please be kind haha but if you look for my how to collect sandman or how to collect watchmen videos we do a great job of breaking it down!
@@TBATB Don't you worry, I find value even in earlier videos ;)
I wish DC Movies were as good as New Frontier 😌
The live actions need some help but the animated ones are awesome!!
@@TBATB Agree! Love the Animations, DC is on point with those 👍🏼
#batmanhushbookgiveaway did I win?!?!? 😂
Congrats!
Nooo😅
