Great feature, Alex--thank you for the kind words!! I, of course, have all these you reviewed (along with the B&W version of the 15th Anniversary edition) and also collect foreign editions of Hush. So far I have the Eaglemoss UK and Spain editions, French, Russian and Ukrainian. Would be willing to trade with folks who own editors from other countries! :D
Thank you! BIG fan of your work! Definitely it would be interesting to obtain international editions of Hush to see if we are missing out extras here in the US. PS: That Absolute WildCATs wraparound work you did for the new edition... Just Mindblowing !
Hi ,I have Indian editions of Hush if you'd like to have ..
@@aminmecci2441 I would love it! Please email me at sinccolorstore@gmail.com and we can figure a way fir me to pay for them.
So you're one of the few lucky souls that has that statue. I'm jealous.
Please do more of these breakdown videos, this was pure eye candy to watch!
I liked that you showed how it ends and every character that comes out in it! Excellent!
Bruh I love how you make your videos im surprised this channel isn’t bigger
Thank you so much! Hopefully in the future!
The unwrapped edition is my favorite I just love the pencils from artists and Jim lee can’t be denied
Holy, your filming is deadass amazing great job
You made the best videos, plz don't stop making them🥺
Love that Superman bit, lol 😂
Fantastic video! I’m a fellow DC/Vertigo fan and I recently came across your channel and I’ve been stunned by the quality of it. Best wishes from Brazil!
Thank you so much! It looks like I have several followers from Brazil here on RUclips and Twitter! I didnt know Brazil has such a huge Fanbase for all things Comics.
Phenomenal video Alex! Both in visual quality and content.
Loved the great plugs for LCS, inkers and colorist. Agree that they are under appreciated. Scott Williams and Alex Sinclair are definitely two of the best in the industry.
Keep up the great work bud! LOL those Easter Eggs!!!
Thanks Dave!!! I think I’ll always try work in the cage with every video somehow.... 😆
Super helpful video. Thank you!
Great work (and video) as usual! Keep up with your good job, mate.
Thanks man!
High quality video great in depth review 👏👏👏 as always
Many thanks! Appreciate the feedback!!
Is impossible not to cry with this
Thank you so much for this video. I'm trying to complete my Batman Hush (All Editions) Collection.
Holy crap, this video was top notch in terms of quality. Make more!
Thank you! I intend to.
I just picked up the 15th anniversary edition. I am very relieved to find out that I have one of the better offerings! :)
They release a new version called Batman Hush New Edition and they put all the extras that the absolute and 15th anniversary have but in a Trade Paperback form
I had the TPB version but sold it because I wanted the 15th Anniversary one which I got and love it.
Awesome!!
Great video, one edition that I don’t find to have been mentioned is the TPB edition of hush included in the 75th anniversary Batman Box that also has the first part of the court of owls and the dark knight returns.
Thanks great video.
Defects aside, such as warping, I'm a huge fan of the "Modern Classics" line, which Watchmen was recently released under.
0:31 holy gosh that was so satisfying to see lol. Subbed.
Beautiful !
Good video for someone like me just getting into this stuff. Are there any other editions since this was made?
Awesome video!
Awesome video, like always ;)
+Facundo Gomez Thanks so much!
I have all of these save for the Unwrapped, which I really wish I did not miss when it was in store shelves everywhere. But until I watched your video I wasn’t going to purchase the 15th Anny HC. But the completionist in me wants to pick it up for the collection... Great video.
They're releasing a new version of Unwrapped in a couple of months.
I might get the unrapped for my first read.
HUSH was my first ever Absolute Edition and it was what started me on collecting Absolutes and omnibus editions. I only own Batman Hush in absolute edition, after this it did not made any sense to buy HUSH in any other version lol.
Ofc
Great overview! I've had the combined trade paperback, but just upgraded to the 15th Anniversary one. I really wanted this one in a collected hardcover but couldn't justify getting the Absolute. They're just a bit too expensive and too big for my taste. DC's Deluxe editions really are the perfect middle ground for me.
Thank you! Im glad DC gives its readers choices in its format.
Excellent!!
Saw a wrestlemania 19 poster in that floppy lol. Wow time flies. But thanks for the video. Was wondering the difference between each editions
I had no Idea that the 15th anniversary edition had all the absolute extras. I'm buying it now.
amazing as always I only have the unwrapped edition
Thanks Ashley! Glad you got the Unwrapped Edition as its now out of print.
The editions you have stacked at 5:34 are the same ones I have.
Kind of late for this. But damn best b roll I've ever seen for comics. Getting absolute edition now.
Thanks so much!!
Strange, no one ever seems to mention the 2017 LCSD B+W 15th Anniversary edition of Hush, limited to 1000 copies, I’ve been holding that for ages, waiting for the price to skyrocket lol
Hey Alex! Out of curiosity, does your unwrapped edition have sewn binding?
There is also a just that is part of this dc series which I don't know what it is called but when the collection is completed it forms the justice league. This collection of books contains a lot of classics and is stupidly expensive
Just get the absolute for EVERYTHING!
What about the Eaglemoss editions? i have them both, and they are quality hardback novels too.
Like the trade paperbacks. Cool story. Do not get absolutes..
It is better 😅😅😅
I'm debating between the absolute and the 15th anniversary edition
Absolute
Just go Absolute for everything. They look good on the shelf together.
Absolute if your bookshelf allows it....
Go 15th because I'd rather save up on another absolute and the 15th is well mad hc
*made
How is the binding on the Absolute edition??
Please do a review on your blackest night green lantern collection. We can see it on the shelf! 😂
Definitely waiting for a reason to do a Green Lantern video 😁 Most likely when the first Green Lantern by Morrison Trade is collected.
Beautiful work as always Alex. Will hunt down the singles next year and hopefully I won´t have to sell stuff to afford them ;P And maybe buy the paperback just because so I can have the complete set just as you do hehe.
Thanks Joakim!!! It would be amazing if DC solicited a Gallery Edition of Hush. I have yet to own a Gallery Edition but I think Hush would be my first...
The Deluxe Edition It would be my first as well. It was close that I bought the Michael Turner and the dark knight versions.
Ufff, a hush's gallery edition. Now I want it!
hernan batta we can only hope for one to be released
i want that absolute
Great video, just subscribed. Looks like you missed the original 2 volume TPB. You have the 2 HC in the video, the covers for the 2 TPBs look pretty much the same, so I guess there's no different.
Thanks!! Yeah, I missed out the original TPB’s... that was the only one that didn’t make sense originally owning the Two part Hardcovers.
Great video, but i have a minor gripe: you forgot the 75th anniversary of batman box set.
Hey Alex when will you do a collection video I just subscribe also I own the batman hush trade
They just release a new version called Batman Hush: New Edition what has been added on that I'm curious
I think its kind of a ... bummer... that DC decided to give us the deluxe anniversary book and not even a year later, we get the COMPLETE omnibus with every Hush story in it.
Agreed! It would’ve been great if we had that last year instead of the anniversary but from a business perspective, Hush always sells so I can see why DC did this.
@@TheDeluxeEdition me too yea, definitely.
Hey Alex do you need to the spine relaxing for absolutes also when will your next spotlight be
+Aidan Keasko Hi Aidan... No need for Absolutes as the page count goes no where near Omni editions. I plan releasing a quick interim showcasing all the DC Metal covers I picked up in the next days before a proper review. I have been reading a lot on the floppies side.. so much good material has been coming out of DC on a weekly basis...
I have the TPB, which is fine for me, though having the single issues would be nice just to habe them
Having the pristine Singles is still on my to buy list.....
@@TheDeluxeEdition you should do a video with the Batman Jeph Loeb Tim Sale Omnibus
Out of curiosity what are the two yellow Shadow of the Bat collections at 0:44?
Its the Breyfogle / Grant run from 1992 ... There is even a volume 3 which I havent gotten around to picking up.
Great Video!!!! I only have the Trade Paper Back I have to ask what is the difference of the Absolute and Trade Paper Back
+Anaken RYZEN Abad Thanks so much ! Appreciate it! Absolute contains all the extras and you get the overized pages. If you haven't read the story .. you should be able to get the trade on the cheap end.. Also 8700K for the win 😆 (I'm still waiting for Ryzen 2 in Feb though)
LOL I know what you mean about Ryzen 2 though hahahaha by the way merry Christmas to you 😃😃
Have one complete TPB and HC on the Russian language (with sketches, Lee/Loeb conversation, and uninked gallery).
Does the Absolute Edition have all the sketches from both of the original hcs?
+Spencer Welch Great Question! Yes the Absolute Edition has all the sketches but there is a slight deviation and a bit of cropping between the two. For example, The absolute has a sketch that is cropped compared to the standard hardcover (vol.2)
Lots of edition
The spine on my first absolute edition of Hush got all sorts of messed up. I tried loosening the spine before reading and all the segments popped out of the spine because the adhesive was very poorly applied. Never had that happen before. Now I'm too afraid to open up my newer copy of the absolute.
Damn. So sorry to hear that! That must have been a dud copy because my personal experience with Absolutes is on the other end of the scale (i.e they use too much glue and it spills on the pages). I have had purchases where pages were stuck together (see my Absolute Transmetropolitan review)
The Deluxe Edition I'm thinking maybe since Hush was one of the first absolute they released, it has a slightly flawed design. I have other Absolutes and they are absolutely flawless. No pun intended.
The deluxe edition: this book was drawn by the best of the best, and by the best of the best I mean the pencils of Jim lee and Alex Sinclair colors, cause Scott Williams only inked but nothing else
When will you upload again Alex
Superman : no no no no .... No no NOOoOOOO
You forgot the Batman 75th anniversary box set comes with hush
That's the one that I have. Haven't read it yet though
I know this will sound like blasphemy, but I collected it over the first 12 issues of the Walmart 100-page giants. I first read it in collected form (via the two-volume set) in the mid-2000s and didn't care much for it at all, but having read it as intended (month-by-month over the course of a year), I found myself enjoying it far more. It isn't paced like a proper graphic novel (e.g. The Killing Joke, Son of the Demon, and Arkham Asylum), nor even like a miniseries (e.g. The Dark Knight Returns, The Cult, and Shaman). It's paced like 12 single issues, each of which are determined to hook you with a gimmicky cliffhanger on the last page. In collected form, I find this kind of storytelling annoying. In single-issue form, I find it fun.
That's not to say that collected editions have no value. For instance, I think Knightfall reads better collected than issue-by-issue (based on my experiences reading it across the various Bat-titles back in 1993). Then again, the single issues of Knightfall tend not to end on big cliffhangers, so the issue transitions are less jarring.
Is batman hush worth the money
The one and only superman .. Christopher Reeves !!
Noir vs Unwrapped - not only for Hush but for other releases - what are your thoughts?
For Jim Lee, I would say both! I have yet to own all the Noir releases but I hope they keep them coming. Start with Hush & Killing Joke..... Both Lee and Bolland's work definitely is so jawdropping especially on the paperstock Noir releases uses. I may do a video dedicated to the Noir releases once I obtain all of them.
Good luck i have the Absolute then! I didn't know you were British! 😁
I'm not British :)
The Deluxe Edition Really? I thought you were 😁, nationality aside, this channel is all about quality, keep up the great work! Would you consider to do a review of all the DKR editions?
That's a great idea and I'm definitely eager to do one... The only problem is that I do not have any of the floppies and several older collected editions... Sounds like a new purchasing spree coming up!
2:20 Wow what happend with the audio?
Hey Deluxe have you bought already the Fourth World omnibus??
DJNLdabest Yup! If you want to check out a great review on it... check out Gabe’s Infinity Watch : m.ruclips.net/video/spetRzF83us/видео.html
The Hush omnibus can be pre-ordered, do you perhaps know already what all is included?
That was cancelled a long time ago by DC
@@anakenryzenabad529 my comment is over a year old
Did you pick up the LCSD variant of the 15th Ann?
Currently a gap....
SHAME!
Have you done court of owls
Not in detail... expect that to be featured when the first volume of the Scott Snyder Batman omnibus comes out later in the year.
Batman hush become animate movie in 2019😉yeah!
And Omni dropping in March
Have you seen the movie?
Alex, comics enthusiasts.
I want to buy Batman Hush for my collection, I'm debating between Absolute edition and 15th Anniversary. Two questions: The second one has the same content than the first one?
The only difference in the Absolute edition is the size of the pages and the gorgeous coloring?
Because I would really like to get the Absolute edition to start my collection in that format, but it's really a little bit expensive.
If budget is not a concern, go for the Absolute Edition but you definitely won’t be disappointed with the 15th Anniversary Edition.
@@TheDeluxeEdition I can afford the Absolute edition with a big effort. I think I will buy that edition. Thanks for the answer.
Why does the deluxe have more pages listed on amazon than the absolute
I tend not to trust Amazon page count.
Lol I think you had the Deluxe New Frontier having more pages than Absolute
Does this mean your back for good ?
I have been for a while now but moved my weekly pickups and rants to Instagram and Twitter... RUclips will be more of a space for spotlight releases and edition comparisons.
Alex what will be your next spotlight on a book
what's your opinion on marvel?
+Warwick They have an absolutely great team of creators at Marvel and they seem to be knocking it out the park with all their core titles.
Why is tight binding even a thing??? You think people would just know how to make books properly. This upsets me so much.
Printing company these days..... 🤬
Sure is alot😅😅😅
Read it on comiXology. 10/10 would recommend.
buy the actual book. Jim Lee's art is amazing. You won't regret it...(if you can afford it)
Do u read Manga? Was just Curious
+Alpha Q JoshPrO Sorry... I'm quite ignorant with Manga... I truly wish I had the time though to dive into it.
there’s too many versions of Hush to be honest
would never buy this do to the fact that Jim Lee abuses his position in DC and releases all his work multiple times in different formats while i cant get much better runs by other artist like Gail Simone or John Byrne in any hardcover format. Yet there is how many version of Hush. Long Halloween is better as well yet that only has a few
an illegal amount of editions
Not a masterpiece at all.
