Grant Morrison is my favorite author comic book about Batman. I love "Batman RIP". Amazing Omnibus ! P.S. Announced the second volume, and it will be great!
I wont be getting vol2 . All of the other Morrison stuff is available in premium format. Absolute Batman and Robin, The Return of Bruce Wayne, Absolute Batman Incorporated..and if you wanna be a completist, Time and the Batman HC, but that one is mostly 3-4 issues of filler.
All the oddball stuff like Zur-en-Arrh and the Club of Heroes are callbacks to wacky Silver Age Batman stories. Those stories are collected in a TPB called The Black Casebook but last time I checked it was super pricey
Awesome stuff Gem! Can't wait to check this one out! I swear, I see all your comics and just know I'll never be bored again for the rest of my life since there will always be something great out there to read haha
I just finished this last night! I thought it was very strong for the first omnibus! Everyone says it only gets better from here, so I'm super pumped for vol 2 & 3.
Good review Gem. I actually wanted to wait for the other volumes to release just to do a seamless read through but it always takes a while. I just might dive into it now. Good stuff
I love Grant Morrison for the most part. I find after you read his entire arcs you get alot out of them if you read them again. There is always something going on in the background you may have missed and he does his homework on Batman. I remember when the prose issue came out me and a couple of friends were collecting at the time. One of my buddies hated the idea of having to read a novel that month and probably never did. Good issue none the less and I always liked the idea that comics really dont have to follow any rules if they dont want to. Im sure he would not have gotten away with a full six issue arc done that way. Anyway good review none the less.
Vol 2 comes out next June....very long wait hopefully I can remember where it left off. Loved this Omni...the novel part was a chore though I agree. Beautiful artwork, really enjoyed the Crazy purple batman. Must read for Batman fans.
As always, I really appreciate your honest reviews. I have to agree with you GEM MINT - the Morrison v1 is really good in the beginning and then limps through the middle of the book. I really don't like the heavy text issue because it takes a long time to read but I agree its somewhat important to the narrative and overarching theme. I think to best understand what Morrison tried to do in his 7-year run (which in my opinion did not fulfill its potential), readers should pick up The Batman Case Book which reprints key issues from the 50s and 60s that Morrison kind of channeled into his run. Morrison even pens the Introduction to The Batman Case Book. The problem I see with Morrison was that this whole thing could have been wrapped up succinctly in 3 years but he stretched it out for 7 years b/c it was a steady paycheck from DC and as a result I can't blame him at all - but, the end result is that he did not end up with a classic Batman run. Compare it to his 12-issue All-Star Superman with Frank Quitely or his New X-Men run (I think it was 3 years only) - those were amazing. In the end, the most unbelievable Batman storylines/runs, sadly, includes only 2 Morrison entries (neither of which is from his 7-year run). In my humble opinion, these are the 50 best Batman comics/storylines along with two solid honorable mentions: 1. The Dark Knight Returns by Miller/Janson/Varley 2. Batman: Year One by Miller/Mazzuchelli 3. Strange Apparitions - The 1970s acclaimed Batman run by Steve Englehart and Marshall Rogers from Detective Comics #471-476 4. Gotham by Gaslight by Mignola 5. The Killing Joke by Alan Moore & Brian Bolland 6. The Batman & Dracula Trilogy by Doug Moench & Kelly Jones: Red Rain, Bloodstorm & Crimson Mist 7.

Love these recent reads videos man. Just saw last night the 2nd volume of this doesnt drop until June :( volume 2 and 3 are the best parts of this run for me but I'm ready to ditch my singles before marathoning this.
“…it would be far easier to consider this a dream. but how can i? for in my hand i hold the Bat-Radia. and i… …i am THE BATMAN. …THE BATMAN OF ZUR-EN-ARRH.” “uh-oh.”
Awesome review as always. I think this just saved me some money. I’ve been on the fence about this one for the last few days and I’m pretty sure I will pass on this run. I read the Batman and Robin issues with Dick as Batman and Damian as robin and really dug those back in the day when they first came out but became uninterested with the bigger story with the whole gimmicky new Batman themed costume a month and immediate return of Bruce Wayne. This run just doesn’t really seem like the Batman Story I want to read. I prefer the dark and gritty solo Batman without the whole bat family crammed in unless it’s organic and a bit more of a smaller scale. Bigger isn’t always better
You got most of it for a first read through. I fucking love this run. It definitely takes a couple read-throughs to catch everything but I love that kinda stuff. It also doesn't hurt if you've read a good amount of past Batman stories but it's not essential. This is still enjoyable on it's own. It can never be said that Grant Morrison isn't creative as hell. The dude has an insane imagination and in my opinion he was firing on all cylinders here.
when ever i read Batman RIP i always find myself reading it at least one or two more times right after i've read it. i think i may have a case of Batman RIP OCD?
Great review! Do you need to read other issues/tie-ins to understand the book itself or is this omni sufficient enough to follow the plot? Thanks, Gem Mint! ;)
Finished reading this one a few nights back. The missing issues are a bit of an...issue. I liked it but the missing stuff is really confusing sometimes and I found the light novel issue boring, the super sanity theory was pretty cool but that’s about the only positive thing I can say about that part. The international hero’s club stuff was pretty fun. I liked the mystery but by the halfway point I had already guessed who the killer was. Over all it had some really good stuff and some bad stuff. So far the second volume has been much better.
Morrisson's 7 year run, not without flaws, is absolutely the best run on Batman by a single writer. Dont wait for vol2. Buy/read the Absolute Batman and Robin, The Return of Bruce Wayne HC and Absolute Batman Incorporated. Then read Tomasi and Gleasons Batman and Robin Omnibus.
So does this contain like the whole story of Batman RIP and such? if so, why will there be volume 2 and 3? Btw good video, love your content.Keep it up! 😁
Vol. 1 was "Batman and Son", "The Black Glove" & "Batman R.I.P." Vol. 2 will be "Batman and Robin", "Time and the Batman" & "The Return of Bruce Wayne" Vol. 3 will be "Batman Incorporated", "Demon Star" & "Gotham's Most Wanted"
Volume 2 will be Batman & Robin, which is the adventures of Dick Grayson as Batman and Damian Wayne as Robin. And it will also contain The Return of Bruce Wayne, which is the story where Bruce Wayne lives multiple lives throughout time because he is trapped in the Omega Sanction. Volume 3 will contain Batman Incorporated, I don't really know what it's about because I haven't read it yet. I think it has something to do with the Club of Heroes that were introduced in volume 1.
It’s gonna be confusing. I don’t recommend this one for new readers. You would have to read final crisis and other new 52 titles to get what’s going on
Morning Gembo, I have another recommendation for you today, have you heard of the High school of Dead manga series? If not, you should check it out it’s a great, fun series and a fast read as well! I think you’ll have fun with it my friend! Ciao!
@@GemMintCollectibles ok cool, thanks Gem - would be a really cool, informative video to consider doing; what's required reading in omni format or OHC to get up to speed with all the DC crisis stuff? Peace
I just finished Batman the black mirror, good read, great artwork, but was supprised that Bruce Wayne is'nt Batman anymore, will have to read it again...stay safe and minty!
Spiritually this is the descendent of the dark knight returns. With his super human will, Batman absolutely overpowers each and every enemy in his way. I love how Joker teased Dr Hurt’s gangs with something along the line of you thought you’d win but you just slowly walked into the grave Batman had dug for y’all.
I bought all three omnibuses of Morrison's run, but after reading the first volume, I am kind of disappointed. I wanted to like it but the story felt very choppy to me.
Outstanding rundown Gem! Not gonna lie but unfortunately I just have never been able to warm up to any of Grant Morrison’s body of work. He just leaves me unsatisfied and as a Batman writer I won’t go near him.
Batman sucks but good review anyway, well the movies are good. What's his superpower again, oh yeah he's rich. I'm poor my superpower is poverty and having huge nuts. :) Thx G-Man. Have an absolutely splendid day.
That's not a superpower, it's his means to use his natural and gained through training abilities to greater use. His SUPERpower is having no superpowers because they weren't bestowed upon him through some science fictional bullshit like a radioactive spider. It's grounded in reality far more than any other superhero.

Grant Morrison is my favorite author comic book about Batman. I love "Batman RIP". Amazing Omnibus
!
P.S. Announced the second volume, and it will be great!
Batman RIP is definitely one of my all-time favorite Batman stories.
Also whatever happened to the Capedcrusader
I wont be getting vol2 . All of the other Morrison stuff is available in premium format. Absolute Batman and Robin, The Return of Bruce Wayne, Absolute Batman Incorporated..and if you wanna be a completist, Time and the Batman HC, but that one is mostly 3-4 issues of filler.
Great run, definitely one of the best and highest moments in Batman's history. Also great review, good job!
Read this Batman Omnibus thanks to a friend. I liked it. Loving the recent reads by the way. Hope for more.
Love your channel and these videos. They give me an idea as to which omnibus books to buy next. Great stuff!
All the oddball stuff like Zur-en-Arrh and the Club of Heroes are callbacks to wacky Silver Age Batman stories. Those stories are collected in a TPB called The Black Casebook but last time I checked it was super pricey
yea someone else mentioned that book as almost pre-required reading
Awesome stuff Gem! Can't wait to check this one out! I swear, I see all your comics and just know I'll never be bored again for the rest of my life since there will always be something great out there to read haha
that was my plan
@@GemMintCollectibles super awesome plan mate!
Please do the Batman Omnibus revisit soon. Great video, Gem, as always.

Hahaaah yees
Hi all, I have this omnibus but haven't read it yet. Would you advise to read all the 3 Morrison omni before reading this one? Thanks.
Great video! I’ve been waiting to hear your thoughts. I picked this up at release, but have yet to dive in.
Thnks man, your review help me figure out which stories I have and if I should buy it or not 👍
Still digging your omni reviews, keep 'em real!
Getting this for Xmas and vol 2 I can't wait. Its my first omnibus
great omni makes me want to pick this up
Damn, I can't believe you dropped that! 7:41 That was a great reference!
lol thats that old school Wiz
Vol. 2 is in DC Comics's January 2019 solicitations, posted just a couple of days ago. On-sale date is June 19 2019, assuming it doesn't get delayed.
saw that...should have held off on reading this so soon lol
I heard that some stories inside of this are missing, should I still buy it?
How is it ordered? Does Batman #701 come after Batman rip?
I just ordered this volume. My LCS guys love Morrison and constantly tell me to read it.
Can you do a video review of my #1 favorite comic book run that never finished,ALL STAR BATMAN& ROBIN:the boy wonder by miller&jim Lee?
It's fun to rag on it, but I absolutely love All-Star Batman & Robin!
@@TrashHeapHedonist me too,its like a satire on bob kane's classic!!!

Does it have the full Resurrection of Ra's al Ghul story?
Hey gem is there a volume 2 of this book ? I know Amazon has it for 44 bucks for vol 1.
comes out in Jan
Yoooo where did you get that Ironman/ hulk-buster statute ?
Great book been on a mad battrip since I read this! The novel issue is slow to start but picks up, I really liked it in the end
agree
Loved the resent reads can’t wait to hit that one up but not until I get to final crisis first
You should read the first 2/3 of this before final crisis though. Batman RIP is the culmination of the first like 15 or so issues in here
Your audio has improved alot btw
I can't believe I missed this video. I must've been drunk.
Do you know if there's any deluxe versions of green arrow longbow hunters ?
im not familiar with it
Is there a site i can use that will show me upcoming omnibus release dates?
i just use the instocktrades coming soon section and add books i want to my wishlist.
Hey@ Gem mint were you able to read it once and that's it or you think you could read it 2 or 3 more times.? I like these recent read vids.
i would read it again
when ever i read Batman RIP i always find myself reading it at least one or two more times right after i've read it.
i think i may have a case of Batman RIP OCD?
I had to like after the reaction of the thought of double dipping finale crisis.
Is the book standard size, or is at like an oversized deluxe height?
oversized
Yhank for comment it help to know what to buy
This run is so fucking awesome
Loved the video, any plans on doing a recent reads on The Goon?
yes i do plan to read it soon
Okay. I dipped into this for a few issues and wasn't feeling it. Glad to hear it picks up. Morrison usually knocks it out the box
glad i wasnt the only one who wasnt really feeling it. glad i stuck it out though.
Great review! Do you need to read other issues/tie-ins to understand the book itself or is this omni sufficient enough to follow the plot? Thanks, Gem Mint! ;)
i think you do...im reading vol 2 now and thats my biggest complaint...i think you should at least read final crisis first..or at least before vol 2

Vol. 3 will be "Batman Incorporated", "Demon Star" & "Gotham's Most Wanted"
@@ChadBenjamin yo thanks dude, 3 omnibus means its a pretty long story
@@sherryr8671 Yeah. It's a 7 year long run. It started in 2006 and ended in 2013.
So what are the other 2 volumes going to have in them
Volume 2 will be Batman & Robin, which is the adventures of Dick Grayson as Batman and Damian Wayne as Robin. And it will also contain The Return of Bruce Wayne, which is the story where Bruce Wayne lives multiple lives throughout time because he is trapped in the Omega Sanction.
Volume 3 will contain Batman Incorporated, I don't really know what it's about because I haven't read it yet. I think it has something to do with the Club of Heroes that were introduced in volume 1.
By any chance this omni vol 1 and 2 will be coming back in IST?
if they arent on IST then theyre OOP....DC would have to reprint. I would think theres a chance since vol 3 comes out soon
Gem Mint Collectibles thank you I just missed it last month because I’m waiting for the vol 3 to buy it all at one order. Now I regret waiting lol. 🤣
Can I start with Morrison’s run if I haven’t read anything of Batman before?
It’s gonna be confusing. I don’t recommend this one for new readers. You would have to read final crisis and other new 52 titles to get what’s going on
Morning Gembo, I have another recommendation for you today, have you heard of the High school of Dead manga series? If not, you should check it out it’s a great, fun series and a fast read as well! I think you’ll have fun with it my friend! Ciao!
Is any other reading required or can I jump straight into this?
this run was confusing IMO...i think you need to read final crisis first

supposedly lol
I just finished Batman the black mirror, good read, great artwork, but was supprised that Bruce Wayne is'nt Batman anymore, will have to read it again...stay safe and minty!
This is my first BIG omnibus in my collection. Appreciate the review.
Damian a beast ... 👍

damn no excitement lol u depressed me hahaha
I think Grant Morrison is the most overrated comics writer but this run was okay. Always appreciate your honest down to Earth reviews.
Not a fan of Morrison at all. Stop collecting when DC had him writing Batman and Final Crisis. Still great video.
Gem be reading like shit lol
A one minute ad that you can't skip????? Come on guys. That's ridiculous.
I didnt choose that...i usually its 5 seconds.
It actually boggles my mind that you took the time to complain about that..
Batman sucks but good review anyway, well the movies are good. What's his superpower again, oh yeah he's rich. I'm poor my superpower is poverty and having huge nuts. :) Thx G-Man. Have an absolutely splendid day.
do well not to mistake that awful interpretation of Batman from that awful Justice League movie for the real deal.
:(
That's not a superpower, it's his means to use his natural and gained through training abilities to greater use. His SUPERpower is having no superpowers because they weren't bestowed upon him through some science fictional bullshit like a radioactive spider. It's grounded in reality far more than any other superhero.
I don't like Grant Morrison's run on Batman. He makes Batman too insane for my taste.
