That new costume is completely amazing. I really do wish it had stuck around longer. It's modern and fun and felt so right.
Definitely a much different run than Gail Simone's run. I currently own the Simone run in omnibus format, and it was a great read. I probably won't be getting this. However, if there's one Batgirl omnibus I'd love to see get printed, it's Batgirl by Bryan Q. Miller 🙌 I currently have that run in trades.
Sweet! I still gotta wait for mine,got an Amazon "sorry,delayed" email a few days ago but am excited for this series after reading the New 52 series which catapulted The B-Girl straight into my top 5 fave
DC characters after only reading the first few issues,being in a wheelchair myself that series went straight to my heart and I must admit,brought tears to my eyes. Personally some very touching pages/panels in there to read. ❤
Happy to see this finally coming out. Babs' art really shines in oversized format.
While Barbara Gordon being wheelchair bound was retcon, it came with a catch. The device that helps her move gets destroyed in Joker War and then repaired with a line saying, this can't really happen again. I like her both as Oracle and Batgirl and now a mentor to the two Batgirls.
Never read this run, but you actually already convinced me to buy it when you did the Batgirl reading order, lol. Now, if only DC would reprint the Batgirl: Year One Deluxe Edition!
P.S. Due to the non-glossy dust jacket, I'll likely be adding a plastic sleeve like I did with the X-Men Vol. 1 Omni, lol.
I went to buy B.Y.O a few months ago (prob cauas of his video) and it disappeared.
I luckily bought Batgirl Year One deluxe as one of my first comics a few years ago, because today it's literally nowhere to be found.
@@TheUnstoppableBar Good for you, must be nice! 😭
They still sell the eaglemoss hardback, if you're interested in an alternative 👍.
I purchased the Hardcover of Batgirl of Burnside years ago when I first went to Comic-Con. It was such a wild reinvention of Barbara Gordon’s alter-ego but I really loved it.
At heart, Barbara has always possessed a light that Bruce Wayne and other Bat-Family members can never have. So the colourful, vibrant tone of Cameron Stewart, Brendan Fletcher & Babs Tarr’s work suited Barbara. And I think it resulted in a run that helped evolve Batgirl’s legacy in a wonderful way.
The costume redesign was great as well. It really grew on me. And this omnibus looks a fine celebration of the Burnside era for Batgirl. Great vid, mate! 👍🏻
I quite enjoyed this run as TPBs, it was just as said, very jarring when storywise it happens RIGHT after Gail Simone's run and the events in those stories. Taken as its own thing, it's pretty fun. Really glad to see they included the Endgame one-shot after all!
Since I was a kid I’ve been a huge fan of Batman & the Bat Family so this is an easy yes for me. Batgirl’s costume in this reminds me of the outfit she wore in the 60’s Adam West Batman show. I wish DC would follow Marvel’s example with omnibi. There needs to be table of contents, page numbers are nice & keep issue numbers/titles on covers so I know what I’m reading. Thanks for the great overview as always Omar.
The suit is awesone
I'm a lifelong Barbara Gordon fan, always will be. Gail Simone's run on the title cast a very, very tall shadow that this run could not live up to on any level, in my opinion. That said, I would consider buying this just to support the fact that DC is making an effort to publish omnis. I'm happy for those that are happy to see this book.
This is one of the more thinner DC Omni(s) I've ever seen Uncanny Omar. Thx for the review!
(Jay RoC) they did this with black Canary at that time as well were that title had similar art style & Jem & the holograms feel to it
This book looks great . I will pick it up when I have extra money. I love the cartoony art.
Man the design in this looks great. Book isn’t for me but I loved the overview :D
Love the purple tone. Like Justice League Dark but totally different
Where are my Supergirl Omnies Omar?
i need my supergirl omnies. or any run collected in Hardcover, specially the last one, that was cut short two issues to early
Just finished up this story. New 52 Era batgirl is awesome for me!!!
Was curious about this one, just picked up the Simone Omni.
Not sure if this is quite to my taste, I am loving the Simone run so far though 🤷🏻♂️
Great video as always Omar! Thanks
The Burnside years are just okay. If you just want to know what happens after Simone’s run in New 52 continuity then I guess purchase it, but $100 for a smaller Omni is way too expensive IMO
@@thisjustincomics good to know. Yeah I’m not sure the is is quite my vibe..
@@TheComicBookReport nah it’s way too different and seems to be aimed at a younger audience too. Artwork is way too cartoony too IMO
Finished the Simone run recently and rather enjoyed it, so I am stoked for more Barbara! Hopefully we get Rebirth Batgirl and Rebirth Birds of Prey omnis (and one day Dixon/Simone Birds of Prey).
Simone Birds of Prey Omni for sure. Can’t believe DC hasn’t put it out (yet).
Hi there. I got a final crisis 10th anniversery omnibus, still wrapped. What is it worth?
I really like the art in the other Batgirl omnibus and will order that one, unfortunately I am not sure about this one, and will pass on this one. But great informative video as always.
I might read this one if I can get a bargain. I read the Simone book, it was a decent read.
Definite buy. Love new 52
Waiting for my copy to arrive. What bugs me is the font on the spine. It's unnecessarily compressed to the point of almost being illegible at first glance. Just a nitpick, though.
I will get Batman Returns Omnibus hopefully soon, but Burnside only if I find it much cheaper.
So DC, how about a Batgirl by Miller or Batgirl by Puckett Omnibus?
Those would be great. I'd really like to have a Stephanie Brown/Batgirl and Tim Drake/Red Robin set of omnis.
Reading Simones run right now and not really digging it, tbh. I may swap for this and see if its more my jam. Gorgeous design on this one.
Any Bat-content is good content
edit: its funny you could tell the binding wasn't up to standard straight away by how Omar's left hand was holding on to the pages and wouldn't let go. Still gonna get it (because I'm a Bat-family completionist )but seems slightly overpriced considering the first volume is the same retail price and almost double the content.
I’m still on the fence, read the first trade but the tone & art was so different from Gail’s brilliant run. The colours really pop in this book though! Not a fan of the dustjacket art & logo font. I think I’d only pick this up at a substantial discount. Thanks Omar!
I think this run is 3 trades. So might work out cheaper to buy as trades
I was going to pass on this, but two things changed my mind:
1) The design of the book is gorgeous!
2) You mentioned the tone felt similar to "Scott Pilgrim." I'm curious about what you mean?
The only thing holding me back is the amount of allegations against Cameron Stewart. It's very hard for me to separate writer from work, and the controversy with him is unacceptable (I'm surprised DC printed this book, in that regard). But, I love the artwork, I disliked the change to Barbara, but...I'm not sure.
Do a new mutants vol 2 overview next, pls.
Can I read this one without Gal Simone Batgirl omnibus?
Pass. To expensive for a 500 page omnibus. Great video! Thanks Omar.
100 dollars? 🤔 that is a lot for the difference in content from one another, another marvel universe by Donny Cates omnibus hahahahaha.
Who pays cover price? Only fools
@@dankzilla981 well if it’s 50% off that’s $50 because it’s $100. If it were the CORRECT price of $75 it’d be $37.50. Looking at it that way it makes sense
@@thisjustincomics I’m cool with 42-50% off on this but each their own
@@dankzilla981 right. What I mean is that most retailers won’t go more than that, and if this book was $75 (which it should be) you’d be paying less than $40 for it. And for pre-orders, Amazon almost never gives you a good enough discount. So that being said, yeah a 50 or even 42% discount would be good enough for me too
Yeah what I’m saying is that it should be 75 so we can pay a around 45 instead of 60 compared to other books.
This is a hard pass for me, but it's great that DC is publishing omnis, i just wish we get more Hellblazer or first Grell's Warlord omni.
Completely different things there compared to this lol
I need a Cassandra Cain omni. She IS Batgirl. Thanks Omar for this review.
That shift in tone is a no from me, plus 100$ for that thin of a book? Nah I'd rather spend that money on a different omnibus.
Actually it’s issue 35 to 52
The art work and story on this one is a clear step down from the previous omni. I’ll still be getting to complete the new 52 run and my bat family addiction. 👌🏻
I use to pick this series up weekly when it was out. I had to stop reading the series. I just could not get into the story. It was a little boring for me. But the omni looks nice.
I wish someone would do a review on the 50th Anniversary hardcover book on her. I am literally enraged how bad the artwork on the cover of that was. It looks like a ten year old drew it. Except a ten year old probably could have done significantly better...
100 bucks for such a thin omnibus, yeah pass DC..
Who pays cover price for omnibus?
Me.
@@gummy9739 not everyone lives in the states, we don’t have IST, CGN etc. It costs 80-90 euros here
@@MYTHNL90 that’s brutal. I wouldn’t be in the hobby if I had to pay cover.
@@gummy9739 So you don't really like it, then.
i relly didnt like the art in this run,the story was ok at best.
really good video omar
Thanks for the overview. It seems uninteresting.
I’m on the fence given Stewart’s sex pest allegations and the fact that Tarr didn’t really draw this series as much as traced over Stewart’s layouts
Hey DC...How about a reprint of : GOTHAM CITY SIRENS OMNIBUS by Paul Dini?? As for this omni, Its a so so run for younger readers but I would not recommend it to adults,but,thats just me. Like the cover art,but the $ is a little high given the content amount,etc.
This is where I dropped Batgirl, seemed like they were trying to appeal to 13-16 year old girls, nothing wrong with that but not for me.
Great for teenagers, not for me unfortunately.
10:02 I wouldn't call that costume an upgrade in all honesty
I remember dropping this run 4 issues in. Why does this book get a 99$ price tag? Crazy DC. Upcharging all their newer omnis without any quality support. Smh
I only made it to the 2nd issue. Right after Gail's run i was like this is terrible
I picked up most of this run in the quarter bin a couple of years ago because I like the art, but the writing is so inane and childish, and the price point is ridiculous. Pass.
There's something about this Batgirl run that pulls me away from it when compared to the other new 52 run. The art and character design seems to be too trendy and current era for my taste. As if its a comic book meant to be for YAs which I'm not into TBH. I prefer the more brooding and edgy Batman stuff.
It's too "trendy" for my taste.
So glad I didn’t buy this. I hope no proceeds go to Cameron Stewart.
1st 🥇
Easiest pass in omnibus history.
Tons of worse books but ok 😂
@@dankzilla981 😂
Don’t like the art. Pass
even without the insane price for such a small book, story wise,art wise its all a major downgrade,hard pass for me.
