The collections are listed in relative chronological order, so the collected issues could be read in sequence to make your way through the vast history of the DCU.Īs with many omnibus and absolute collections, I’d clarify that these editions often sell out and remain out of print for multiple years. The guide below will inform you of any available Omnibus and Absolute editions from DC Comics (including Vertigo Comics). Seriously, I nearly went into debt putting together the Marvel Omnibus guide, and the ultimate DC collection of Omnibus editions and absolute collections was no different. I love Omnibus collections, and every time I see one, I feel a compulsion to read every comic book ever made. If you love comic books, and the DC Universe, what could be better than GIANT books filled to the brim with DC Comics? The power to chef burritos with but a thought? Ok, yes, but what else? There are few things in comics more exciting than omnibus and absolute collections.

Second edition, first printing, July 1943. Mostly dealing with the lives of downtrodden “little” men and low-ranking civil servants as they navigate the corruption and malpractice of Russian officialdom, this volume – here presented in Stephen Pimenoff’s lively new translation – bristles with wit and humour, and is tinged by that understated note of melancholy and lyricism that is a trademark of Chekhov’s writing. Presented in a new translation by Stephen Pimenoff, ‘The Looking Glass’ is accompanied in this volume by thirty-four other short stories by Chekhov, some of them never translated before into English. One of Chekhov’s most admired stories, ‘The Kiss’ is joined in this volume by six other celebrated tales in a new translation by Hugh Aplin, making this an indispensable collection for those wanting to discover Chekhov at his creative best. This volume represents a clear milestone in the writer’s passage from the youthful Antosha Chekhonte, author of slight comic sketches, to the mature master of the short-story genre. Some of the stories are available for the first time in English. They range from well-known and acknowledged gems to lesser-known ones. A unique collection which includes five volumes of stories by Anton Chekhov, all presented in new translations. Stranded at boarding school, his vulnerability attracts his piano teacher, Miriam Cornell, leaving scars as well as a memory of love that will never fade. While the world is still counting the cost of the Second World War and the Iron Curtain has descended, young Roland Baines’s life is turned upside down. ‘McEwan is one of the most accomplished craftsmen of plot and prose’ New York Times ‘The supreme novelist of his generation’ Sunday Times Lessons is an intimate yet universal story of love, regret and a restless search for answers. But for so many of us, old wounds run deep. The mesmerising new novel from Ian McEwan, the bestselling author of Atonement. Epic, mesmerising and deeply humane, Lessons is a chronicle for our times – a powerful meditation on history and humanity through the prism of one ordinary man (NPR called it “brilliantly imagined,” and Publisher’s Weekly admired how it “swings for the fences.”) Under its imprint Strange Light, Penguin Random House Canada started publishing horror novels in 2019, including David Demchuk’s Red X, in which a monster haunts and hunts Toronto’s Gay Village. Last fall, major sci-fi and fantasy publisher Tor Books-which put out Robert Jordan’s famed series The Wheel of Time, now an Amazon Prime show-launched a horror imprint, and Manhunt is one of the most talked-about titles in its lineup. Publishers are taking notice with new imprints. The genre is having a moment, whether it’s film (like Jordan Peele’s high-grossing Get Out), podcasts (such as the pop-supernatural Lore), or TV (including Netflix hits like The Haunting of Hill House). |
