Yes! Little brother syndrome is such a thing with video games especially! I remember my little brother watching me play games that were too tough for him (like the Arkham games, God of War games, etc.) when he was a kid, and now he loves watching let's plays and says it takes him back to watching me play and thinking it was so fun and cool
The games are some of my favourite Superhero games ever. They were absolutely perfect with Hamill and Conroy. Never read the comics but I always thought they were gaps that needed to fill in some things between games. Thanks for the review Omar.😄
Thank you for always pointing out before or after what is worth reading for a better experience. You are the best guide to the world of comics. And by the way, there is another game in the Arkham series that everyone forgets about - Blackgate.
There's actually 2 more (well, 1 more and an upcoming game). Batman: Arkham VR and the upcoming Batman: Arkham Shadow. Actually I think there's at least 1 more game, but it doesn't have a plot or anything so imo it doesn't really count
@@bowgaming6281 Was talked about the Suicide Squad, which they consider to be part of Arkham series, like and Gotham Knights (which is actually not so bad). But VR is an attraction for the rich, which most gamers don't have money for. Shadow - showed only a fake CGI trailer without any real gameplay. Don't get your hopes up too much
It would be awesome if there was comic adaptations of the games, placed in the right reading order with all the tie-ins. Of course we would have a two omni collection. I like to day dream...
I'm really glad they reprinted this! I've been waiting for a reprint since I started collecting omnis 4 years ago. My hopes were low since there wasn't any new Arkham game on the horizon, but here we are!
Crazy. My favorite Arkham games are Arkham Knight and Arkham Origins. Knight’s gameplay is the best and Origins’ story is my favorite. I find it insane how people dislike Arkham Origins but Love Matt Reeves’ The Batman because they both have similar story beats.
I am just a Batman fanatic who will pick this up. I am a very casual video game player and did spend a fair bit of time in the first game but did not finish it. This will go on my “Elseworlds/alternate worlds” alongside things like Batman Animated, Injustice, Batman 66, Superman/Batman Generations, DCeased.
I'm huge fan of Arkham games as it's jusr part of my heart so even if these comics ain't IT I still had to get it. I have the original first printing and since it's all same I don't need to double dip 😄 for any hardcore Arkham games fans, get the omnibus.. just for the sake of having it in collection!
Need those dark knight detective omnibus from the tpb 1-8 they are oop, i have 5-8 just need those classic tpb 1-4 to be reprinted in a omnibus and caped crusader omnibus from the tpb 1-6, i have vol 6 but yeah classic 80s-90s batman
@@Joseph-cp6du nice , I haven’t platinum any of them. But if I chosed one to plat it would be Arkham knight since I got the secret ending which is the only hard part since you know …. All those damn riddler trophies 😅😂.
Ya would need to Play Arkham Origins, Arkham Asylum, Arkham City and Arkham Knight 1st. They are all some of the best games ya can play. Also they are relatively cheap. If ya have PS+ ya can play origins for free. Ya can still get the 3 game bundle Asylum city and knight for about $20 9n Amazon and other places.
@@nivekleveb8872DC pulled it off the schedule so they could return the colors to the way they originally appeared. I think it has a new release date, but I don’t remember it off hand. 🫤👍🏼

Watch out guys, it’s the Joker!
My man!
@@Zolerousnah, that would be Bane.
Hahahahahahahaha you devious!
I WILL BREAK YOU BATMAN!! THEN THE BRUJA!!
The moment you removed the dust jacket, I felt all sorts of different emotions
I hate those boards, it's impossible to keep them clean. All my New Teen Titans Omnis have messed up covers.
@ I really wish DC would retire the mate black covers under the dust jacket. It doesn’t make sense anymore! 🤨
@@vincentimbesi3947 especially since they have great and sturdy covers for some Omnis with artwork on them. Just baffling

This makes me wanna go back and play the games. NOSTALGIA!!
Arkham trilogy is the goat
That's more like an encyclopedia. 📙
Think thats bad check out the Monster Sized Hellboy book

12:00 This artist it wildin😭
I like how the artwork is a throwback the promo art for arkham city
As a collector of all the Arkham games, I need this book. This may be my first omnibus (hopefully)

I've been waiting for this reprint for so long... I need it. I NEEEEEED IT *in SpongeBob desperation voice*
THAT is ONE THICK omnibus! Thanks for the video, Omar! I will buy this one, for sure!
I'm really glad they reprinted this! I've been waiting for a reprint since I started collecting omnis 4 years ago. My hopes were low since there wasn't any new Arkham game on the horizon, but here we are!

the Arkham world is an exceptionally crafted creative space; games, comics, and an animated film

This looks pretty cool.
it's really funny that they had to reprint a collection of mediocre-to-bad game tie-ins. I expect this is going to hit clearance sales in a few months
I don't know, people love those Injustice comics and I read the first omni and thought it was junk and immediately sold it on ebay
@@nivekleveb8872 I agree, but I've always heard that with the caveat that it gets better later. I will never find out.
I think a handful of these got declared as non canon years ago too. Lol
Awesome

Cant believe it took DC this long to reprint this book. Insane. Ok DC when are we doing Jonah Hex vol 2??
Whare is volume 1?
@@forsakenV12 probaly ebay is your best bet
Oh shit I see the black mask Easter egg in Arkham city now I know what fully happened
I loved the games, how does this feel overall as a graphic novel? Do the execution, writing and stories feel strong?
Why don't they just split this into two volumes, this is such an overkill.
I like to read omnibuses but why do they have to be so expensive?
For those who haven’t played any of the 4 Arkham games please do yourself a favor and play them.
Got the platinums for all of them.
@@Joseph-cp6du nice , I haven’t platinum any of them. But if I chosed one to plat it would be Arkham knight since I got the secret ending which is the only hard part since you know …. All those damn riddler trophies 😅😂.
@@Joseph-cp6dunice,I only platinum Arkham knight.
I played 3
What a monster. A bit unwieldy if I'm honest, two volumes would be much better. How much does the mother weigh?!
Agreed, this could have been two nice 800 page volumes.. I don't understand the appeal of these behemoths.
@@cluelessbeats yeah same, I sold a few this past year that are just too big to read properly. There really should be some common sense involved.
So it doesnt collect Arkham Knight #0 ? I have that as a floppy. Think it was promotional with something
So this comic basically collects the games?
What games exactly do I have to play before reading this book?
Ya would need to Play Arkham Origins, Arkham Asylum, Arkham City and Arkham Knight 1st. They are all some of the best games ya can play. Also they are relatively cheap.

Pass, just gimme that Neal Adams omni reprint already!!!!!
When do you think they will reprint that ? Missing that one .
it's coming out February 25, 2025 - I hope it has the original colors, but probably not

I’m surprised they reprinted this I thought this was just average.
I just realized Rocksteady announced a new Batman game so I'm gonna assume that's why
@@jarod9135 I'm surprised Rocksteady haven't gone bankrupt yet

Was it good? I keep hearing it’s a bad story.
The story in the games is quite good. I'm not sure if I'd recommend this if you haven't played them though, since it's mostly to expand on that world.
Had the original games on X-box, just them again on the Switch. It’s a great series, but I forgot how much the Riddler irritated me.
Batman: Arkham shadow on October 22,2024❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
I love your content. But I did want to be that dude. The "bus" "Omnibus" is pronounced like school "bus" not "biz"
I guess this book doesn't include "Riddler's Gambit"
That's a novel.
First
I’m sorry but nothing beats the Batman Hush Omnibus.
The Batman Omnibus by Loeb/Sale beats Hush, you don’t need to apologize.
Batman by Scott Snyder & Greg Capullo omnibus
Batman caped crusader beats hush
Don't play video games anymore bro?
Just my switch on the go. I love that system
@@NearMintConditionI’m not sure if you will ever read this but I just wanted to let you know that all the Arkham games are playable on the switch now. 😊
Somehow this doesn’t even cover all the Arkham comics.
What comics is it missing? Geniunly curious.
What's missing
The arkham comics are nothing like the games
