As far as I’m concerned this story is one of, if not DC’s greatest crossover. This series came out when I was in high school and I remember being so excited when each issue came out. I was always a big fan of the Earth 1 and Earth 2 crossovers, so this was definitely in my wheelhouse. I’ve got everything Crisis related....softcover, hardcover, floppies, novel, toys, absolute.....so you know I had to order this!! Thanks for the review. You’ve got me even more excited for my shipment from In Stock Trades.
It's just lots and lots of heroes and villains doing pretty much the same thing for a year. The story could have easily been told in six issues. Most of the crossover books had stories that were D+ at best.
That's cool
Insane
I need an X Men Claremont box set like this!
Awesome and in depth overview! This would have been a no brainer if they went for the oversized hardcover route but they had to follow Marvel with their dimensions on massive box sets.
The wraparound art is actually new art work from Nicola Scott and Jerry Ordway. The panel on the back is the only George Perez art from the original issue #1 of the maxi-series. I started collecting as a teen in the mid 90s, loved all things DC, and had to find this series and see what Earth 2 and the multiverse was all about. This series hooked me on DC for life. The box set is pricey but well worth it IMO. I had to have it as I have every edition DC has ever released. It's awesome and I'm glad I could add it to the Avengers, Infinity Gauntlet, and Secret Wars boxed sets I already have. I hope DC does more box sets like Marvel as these are great showpieces and an awesome way to have amazing runs in one beautiful package. Thanks for the review GemMint; your channel is what really got me into the hardcovers, Deluxes, Absolutes, Omnibuses, and boxed sets.
Dope overview I would think a 3 Omni set would be better like how Batman knight fall is.
I am working on a set like this with custom bound volume of KnightSaga.
I love the audio track in the background it fits the overview really well.
Epic and will be out of print soon, FOMO
I thought they were going to start with the Flash issue when Barry met Jay for the first time
I might have to pick this up along with the Infinity Gauntlet one. Especially since I haven't read Crisis yet. Gem coming in clutch like always
Great video brother, may have to look for this to add to my addiction that your channel has inspired in me haha
Dude, the golden age comics had so much dialogue. Not quick reads at all. I cant do it now in 2019.
Fax it’s so much reading that it even gets boring
Nice review. I still have the 5'+ wide Ross/Perez poster, just don't have the real estate to put the thing up, ha. Years ago at a convention in Chicago they had some of Ross' original paintings on display in a room off of the convention floor and seeing that Crisis painting up close and in person was really something.
Thank you for buying it bro now I can decide to buy it too
Thanks for the overview! I'm sticking with my Absolute and the 3 oversize companion volumes.
Do the 3 companions collect all of the stuff included in these extra volumes?
@@Nick-qf7vt As far as I know, they collects all the Crisis crossovers in the box set. they do't contain the pre-crisis stuff.
@@Puddin_Tame Thanks! I suppose that's all I'll need. I can get the pre-Crisis stuff in the JLA omnibuses, which will probably be cheaper in the long run. This set is tempting though, since it's on Instocktrades for $250.
@@Nick-qf7vt The companions are oversize. The books in the box set are standard size.
@@Puddin_Tame That's the other benefit.
Great video. Appreciate all the work you and Phie put into the channel.
So cool ypy always got the best stuff! Wish I could visit my man
Great overview! I'm not buying this boxset, but I hope the Absolute will be reprinted.
Box artwork is by Nicola Scott not George Perez. George retired so they asked Nicola to homage his work. Great review through. Thanks.
Great Vid. Finally after 5 years I got picked to go to SDCC. Looking forward to seeing everything it has to offer.
congrats!
Great edition! I didn’t know of its existence! It is awesome and a way to own the knowledge of the entire Crisis concept’s origin. Thanks for sharing.
Love the presentation and the collection, but wasn't a big fan of the story itself, though I do agree it was and is an important part of DC comics history. Thanks for the overview!
Looks good, but I can't see myself shelling out for something this price on a student budget
I think it's a good story and artwork, but when I read the Crisis for the first time it was confusing, because I didn't know anything about the DC universe at all. But when I dug deeper, and re-read it a second and third time, it was entertaining. This box looks great, it has it's benefits, I think I just don't care about the prequel stuff. It's a shame that this comes out the same time as the three OHC Companions, because it's a huge double dip.
Enjoyed the video, stay minty fresh as well!
Thanks for the second opinion. I'm going to get this set after all.
Great review per as usual
I got the Deluxe Edition - I enjoyed it but, it was really wordy. Don't know if I could do all the tie-ins. Great video, it was great seeing all the tie-in.
I love the artwork on the box.
Once again Gem delivers a great video! But man I’m really considering buying this but at the same time I feel like I should get a few omnis for a similar price instead...
This just went out of print. I missed it on Amazon but just got a good deal on eBay. Had to have it before it's gone.
I just ordered this set and should probably be here this week. Thank you Instocktrades for the savings. Looking forward to diving into it.
Sounding like a bot who’s advertising the site
@@clips1071 perhaps. But I actually bought it.
Great video. Thanks for the thorough overview and review. Agree that it’s a bit of bummer there’s no OHC’s, but the overall content is very impressive. I was also thinking “Flash of Two Worlds” would be appropriate since that’s where the multiverse was originally introduced. Crisis is the gold standard for events and was fantastic. It’s aged a bit, but what in entertainment hasn’t over the last 35 years.
Yes😊
That looks like a fun read there, Gembo!
Personally I’m not feeling it so wouldn’t be of interest, however do agree that artwork is great. 👍🏻
Nice set! Def wanna get that!
Great overview Gem! Don’t think I’ll be buying this though, think I’ll stick to my deluxe edition that I got George Pérez to sign and then buy the 3 oversized companion books
dope box set love the art
Great Video.............would love a recent reads of the batman snyder omnibus
Nice Box set! But, i am going to stick with the four OHCs and the absolute edition.
Great over view, man.
We need a crisis on infinite earths omnibus
Duuuude this box set is soo dope
Wow! Great to see a review on this set. Wasn't sure if you'd pull the trigger on it or not, but really happy to see a review of it on your channel.
i wish i could afford this
Man great detailed review. That's a cool collection. Love the old school style of art. It's amazing how the art works evolved. You're a walking comic wikipedia lol.
I wanted to see what boxed sets were going to be like, so interesting video, but yeah, $500 is a bit much for me. Think omnibuses are as expensive as I want to go.
Thanks, Gem Mint.
A new Crisis is apparently coming in 2021
Not coming, it’s already here. WB won’t do more Snyderverse.... lol
Love George Perez!!!!..Met him a few times what a nice guy!!!!!
Can you show us how you display your box sets. Thanks
Thanks for the review i really feel like this series is underwhelming kinda like how marvel is now a EVENT just so they can change things to sell more books nothing really jumped out at me at all ,dont know if u plan on reading all of jt but let us know
Music in the background is a nice touch - it adds depth. Stick with it.
i searched for copyright free space music lol
Well, it works with the content!
Fuck. Three arcade cabinets just appeared at the house sometime over the course of the last month or two. No big deal. LOL TH-cam must be very good to your family! GAH BLESS
Good review, but that price tag keeps me away!
Hey man, great video.Got couple of questions. Though.
Which issues do "Crisis on multiple earths" collect?
And if I read all those, (and all the COIE issues) will I understand everything?
Thanks in advance
The tbh the only things that interested me outta the whole box set was some of the prequel matieral which I thought was pretty nice, the main storyline, one of the post books, and the behind the scenes book. In short, imma pass on it lmao. But the boxset does look nice tho 👀👀.
Sooo expensive.wonder how many people can justify the amount spent
Nice
I already have a COIE as a hardcover, Tpb and the old single issues, this is nice for the diehard collector but to me it's not essential to read every single book to understand the main Crisis story, you can practically read summaries of the rest online.
Thanks so much for reviewing this! If you don’t mind me asking, where did you purchase this set? I want to get it myself, but I want to be sure whoever I buy it from will pack it extremely well so that it doesn’t arrive damaged.
Gotham Dweller www.instocktrades.com
The Crisis On Infinite Earths Companion volumes (1-3) are oversized deluxe hardcovers at about $40/each. Wouldn't that be a better buy w/ the Crisis Deluxe HC? Even at $300 for this box set on IST, it's way too expensive. What do you think?
i havent looked at how much more content is provided here...but yea DC does stuff like this all the time. Best to research like you did and determine whats the best route to go. The box is cool as hell though
The box is dope for sure, one reason I got the Infinity Gauntlet Box Set. Thought I'd add a boxset from DC, still unsure.
Should have reviewed it sitting in a paddling pool full of those packing peanuts... ;)
4:25 still the injustice league up to the 100 issue. it’s not injustice league it’s justice league of America or justice league, injustice is way new than the crisis on multiverses earths
He said "Still IN Justice League". He wasn't referring to the injustice series. It was pretty clear to me . He definitely knows that the injustice series didn't appear at that time ... come on
Does anyone know if there are any plans to release any of the individual books separately? I'm only interested in The All Star Squadron and Infinity issues. Plus I had most of mine professionally bound, so I just want it for the nice white paper reprinting.
not that i know of...i doubt it though
Are there an omnibus on this?
Nice one
Hey Gem thanks for the great breakdown
Quick question though, how tall is the actual box? Is it the same height as an Omnibus?
Callum O'Gorman it’s 12.5” tall
I'm in bathroom at taco bell watching instead of working
lmao
Outside a pretty looking box, there's really not much to offer unless you are a long time hardcore DC reader. It's a pass for me, but it's a good review of it from you, bro.
I love it
Wow, that's a mother load. Better start saving 😫😂
Is final crisis in this set
That is what I am trying to find out.
What other DC stuff should get a box set?
KYTim89 maybe Flashpoint
@@GemMintCollectibles Dark Knight Returns?
From your experience, how long does it take for a product like this to go out of print ? I would buy this instantly right now if I could but I can't . So I'm wondering if I'll still find this later in 6-12 months.
well so far only Marvel has been producing these...Civil War and Secret Wars sold out and started selling for retail...When the Infinity Gauntlet set sold out, they made a reprint. So my guess is...if the set is super popular, itll get a reprint and will stay discounted...if it doesnt sell that well...and eventually goes out of print, it could become more expensive
@@GemMintCollectibles I understand . Thank you!
Since DC is copying Marvel, shouldn’t they include a cloth poster or some other bonus item for such sets? Also, which mapping is better, the Crisis Crossover OHCs or the character-centric books in that boxed set?
i havent looked into the mapping
I would like to hear your take on the topic of fisical vs digital media.
unless digital is way cheaper...it's no contest. With physical copies, they can at least retail some value. Plus reading digital hurts my eyes.
@@GemMintCollectibles I agree!, watching it on a video projector it's kind of cool though
Is not Perez art on the box!
Wow. Well I'm not sure if this is a buy but what do you think Mr. Gem mint? Lol sorry I forgot your name (if you've mentioned it?)
Spacey Dragon it’s awesome
Hey, I'm not gonna lie--I'm a Marvel guy but the best part about DC for me was all the multiple earths. I loved that stuff. But hey, the cats at DC were probably saying: "Yeah, you love our stuff but all the books you're dropping money on are Marvel. Beat, it kid."
Did u do a video on the civil war set?
i did
Are u doing the coffee mugs in black?
yea you can purchase them in the links under this video!
Why is the price $300-$500? Seems like $130 or $150 would have been a decent price but $500!?
Is this the same as the Crisis deluxe compendium series?
i havent looked to see what the compendium collects
This is all the comics for crisis on infinite earths right?
Correct
Where did you get this?
not buying anything for this price unless it's oversized
Magic The Krakening DC really cheap out on their binding. Only advice Absolutes when it comes to DC and their OHC’s, the rest is garbage
If they made and omnibus would it be better than this box set
Man just looking at that is hard work. I havnt read the story but it just looks like a slog!
The main story is really slow in the first half, then really picks up in the 2nd. The other stuff isn’t essential reading, and the silver age stuff is soooooo wordy
thsi is really confusing. i bought the crisis on infinte earth 100 page thing from amazon. is that not the whole story?
these have issues that take place prior to and during the actual event
so how long is the actual crisis book
I payed $300 for mine off IST. How can you get it for $275?
txdave37 did you buy on the day it came out? Oh also tax... didn’t include
Where did you get the box set
instocktrades.com
Thanks
that price is why i'll keep on bootlegging comics.
I don't like the cheap paper stock. Marvel does this much better.
Love your videos. But.... Thumbs down to the background music. Sorry 😐
what does this guy do for a living to be able to afford all these collectables?

@@GemMintCollectibles 👍
@@GemMintCollectibles where did you buy those great magneto and wolverine masks at the back in this video?
a dude named Bryan Cochran makes them @art_of_bryancochran on instagram
What if you redo this video you seem not every knowledgeable when you recorded this
