    Ironically,nobody announced Keith Giffen's death.I found out about through this video alone.It's really messed up considering the contributions he gave to DC with this Justice League run.I was hoping to meet him one day but now he's in a better place.R.I.P.,Keith Giffen.I'm picking up this book to your memory because it was a key part of my childhood.

    A while back I sold off most of my floppies. Then I bought a house that came with a whole wall of built-in bookshelves, giving me impetus to start collecting some of my favorite storylines in omnibus form. Your channel and its archive have been invaluable in helping me judicially select volumes to purchase. I especially want to thank you for recommending the JLI omnis. I had wanted to read that series since "Formerly Known As the Justice League" came out and never did. Then I learned from your channel that these collections even existed, and soon after found incredible sales on Amazon for all three. Fully enjoying JLI for the first time! Thank you!!

How do you get your DC books before everyone else for reviews? I know you don't have the same relationship with DC that you have with Marvel but I was just wondering.

    And Jumpin' Blue Beetle! A REAL omnibus! This ain't no panzy Marvel omni that is really only an oversized hardcover collection! You get your money's worth with this one. DC has always been my favorite comic publisher and this is one of the reasons why. They could be greedy like Marvel and make us buy three oversized HC collections for 75 to 125 a pop when they could put all that material in one omni for 150 like DC. The Mouse is an insidious greedy entity that feeds on our souls and wallets. Beware the Mouse!

    JLI ticked all right boxrs at the right time. A concept that appealed to eveyone across the world, and others that followed or try to immediate just failed.
    My book arrive a few days ago and although not opened yet, the blub on the back made me smile and laugh. Not bad for something not shy of £100 ukp.
    I havehes that we will get the rest of this run and have high hopes that DC won't ignore the 80's-90's yearscwhen they were producing sime good stories and art. Unlike now.

      I usually find that to mean that the characters are genuine, and they have compassion and empathy for one another, even when a series is known it’s humor (like this book) or if something is even violent and over the top (like Preacher). A lot of the character interactions feel real and feels like they are real, 3 dimensional people.
      Biggest example of comics for me that don’t have a lot of heart is the entire Ultimate universe (minus Spider-Man)
