Who's Who Omnibus Vol. 2 [Various, Various] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Who's Who Omnibus Vol. 2 Review: There Was a Loveliness to Comics Then - It's more than nostalgia, more than sentimental reasons... and I will grant you that the art, with the exception of this fine, fine cover and grand binding, despite the "order" of the texts inside, is slightly inferior to the very George Perez, Curt Swan, Jim Aparo, Jose Luis Garcia Lopez-driven first volume. And still we see the glory of Blue Beetle, Bronze Tiger, and Booster Gold during their golden era, and that is such a fine distinctly "DC" distilled reality. My Flash is Wally West, and Superman wore his Swanness and his Byrne recreation now strikes me as so appropriate to the period. Then there is the grandeur of Jerry Ordway. Ordway, Byrne, Kevin Maguire... a Grant Morrison in genesis... before comics jumped the shark and Buseik and Waid and company had to rein this enterprise back in... ah, the lack of a thoroughgoing darkness is so nice as well. Darkness is cheap. Nothing dates faster than that which imagines itself as cold, hard realism only to end on the tedious nothingness of "grim and gritty." I can only imagine Chris Hemsworth playing Blue Devil. A DC/Warners that had appropriately mined itself and its greatness. Review: Great product - Nice reading material

There Was a Loveliness to Comics Then
It's more than nostalgia, more than sentimental reasons... and I will grant you that the art, with the exception of this fine, fine cover and grand binding, despite the "order" of the texts inside, is slightly inferior to the very George Perez, Curt Swan, Jim Aparo, Jose Luis Garcia Lopez-driven first volume. And still we see the glory of Blue Beetle, Bronze Tiger, and Booster Gold during their golden era, and that is such a fine distinctly "DC" distilled reality. My Flash is Wally West, and Superman wore his Swanness and his Byrne recreation now strikes me as so appropriate to the period. Then there is the grandeur of Jerry Ordway. Ordway, Byrne, Kevin Maguire... a Grant Morrison in genesis... before comics jumped the shark and Buseik and Waid and company had to rein this enterprise back in... ah, the lack of a thoroughgoing darkness is so nice as well. Darkness is cheap. Nothing dates faster than that which imagines itself as cold, hard realism only to end on the tedious nothingness of "grim and gritty." I can only imagine Chris Hemsworth playing Blue Devil. A DC/Warners that had appropriately mined itself and its greatness.

Don’t miss out!
Great collection! Nice cover! Terrific reproduction! The complaint I’ve seen about it not being alphabetical is unrealistic. This is an omnibus that does a great job of reproducing each issue. The individual issues are alphabetized. Buy it!
