You do realise that More signed a contract right? How was DC supposed to know that Watchmen would jump start a collected edition revolution? Previous to the publication of Watchmen, there were few collected editions outside of the 'Origins' series by Marvel in the 1970s, and a few smaller publishers collections (like Starblaze's run of Matt Wagner's Mage trio of books in 1987). Let's see...you're a part of a big multinational and you have a product that will sell perennially do you keep pumping them out...or capitulate to the request of a disgruntled ex-freelance employee? Would you feel 'better' if someone bought this product 2nd hand off of Amazon or Ebay?
@@haywoco2 Now he's disowned most of the comics he doesn't own the rights to, and asks for his share to be given to his co-creators, as he does for any money that comes from movies etc. He was initially supposed to get the rights back to Watchmen whenever it went out of print, but that never happened and DC never offered to return the rights until too late - then he wouldn't take them back any more, because of all the conditions they had. It's quite a tale, and a sad one.
@Spencer Welch While we all accept corporate greed and what a faceless company would do with valuable 'property' as almost a scientific truth nowadays, I think it's still OK to classify it as something wrong, or as screwing someone over. Legal and for-profit exploitation, and weaseling out by sticking to the letter of the law and not the spirit of an agreement is loophole maximization, and our individual opinions on the ethics of it can vary. With Moore, we can believe he was 'tricked' and gullible, which classifies him as a fool, or at least naive. When he gets wise to it and takes some very radical decisions forgoing literally tens of thousands of dollars in earnings, perhaps millions, we call him cantankerous and mad. I admire his values and principles and him putting his money where his mouth and heart is. With Watchmen, he has washed his hands of the book, refusing to even sign copies if fans put them in front of him. Nothing I do with the book now will have any effect on him at all. He was offered the rights back if he would work on other stories and new comics for DC; he refused due to his bad experience with the company. I cannot abandon the work like he has because I love it so much, but that also helps me understand how hard it must have been for him, as co- creator, to do so.
I just picked up this set from Ollie's for $28! I saw a few sets there last year and passed, but went back a few days later and they were all gone. Then, after work this week I stopped by and they must have found two more and put them out, so I grabbed one.
Almost everybody's favourite chapter is Fearful Symmetry, but my favourite is The Watchmaker, the one on Dr Mahattan. The way Dr. Manhattan's perception of time is portrayed is simply mind boggling.
I go back and forth between those two as my absolute favourite chapter! And Absent Friends. And the first one. And the last one. It's a good thing they're all part of the same box! 😆
Woohoo! Congratulations. Before I got the Absolute, this was the version I was gonna splurge on. Then they went ahead and changed the boxset art and I was so put-off by the current one I changed my plans. I have the TDKR boxset and it has a wonderful wraparound art, this would have been a nice companion to it on the shelf otherwise. Sigh.
I think they did a great job on the TDKR set, including the box art. I don't know what went wrong here - It looks like they were trying to make it appealing to new readers, but it's a 125 dollar box of 12 22-page hardcovers, so I don't know why they would do that. But those standing, backgroundless figures are what I thought the individual volume covers were - can you imagine how bad _that_ would have been?
Congratulations on the hundred dollars! 😂 I didn't know this even existed. It's a pretty beautiful set. But I'd still rather get the larger absolute edition one of these days.
Thank you! 😂 And yes, the Absolute still has the edge, but these larger sized (compared to the original) comics are quite pretty, as you say, and maybe win in the re-readability department.
The Box Art truly is off-putting, but everything else looks very nifty. However, when I can, I'll probably opt for the Absolute edition, just for the extra materials.
I love the extras, especially the script sample and the original pitch. What I would have loved to see in this collection was an extra volume in the box with at least one or two pieces of those extras, if not everything. Still, as you say, the individual volumes themeselves here are quite nifty!
@@ftloc An extra few volumes, in hardcover, collecting extra materials, even essays for that matter, would been a really smart touch. (Never have I used so many commas in a single sentence)
Commas our friends, and semi-colons are the truest and deepest friends! 😁 And this box would have been an instant buy if they had extra volumes with notes and extras, and a different box design. If it used the original colours, even the 125 list price would have been worth it!
Thank you so much! And that's incredibly admirable that you can switch languages to read different editions. I've often seen various European editions, some of comics not even published in English, and been very jealous of readers with access to them! I hope you keep enjoying this channel and I'd love to get any suggestions or recommendations you may have 🙂
Oh, many of them! Have you checked out our multi-video, multi-shelf tour of our entire comics collection? You'll see a bunch throughout.

If you could get one of the old TPBs, with the original colours, that's completely worth picking up. Otherwise it would definitely be the Absolute. Even if one needs to save up for it, it's better to upgrade from a TPB to the Absolute than the Deluxe to Absolute. Of course it's all about price and if you're buying to read for the first time or not.
It's just so pretty, haha! In all seriousness, though, the oversized pages alone make it worth it. I think the Deluxe Edition now contains all the extras that were there in the Absolute, so you won't be missing out on any content if you pick that instead. For the Absolute, it's all about the presentation after that, so the value will lie in how you feel about giant pages, thick paper, a slipcase, a ribbon - the overall 'objet d'art' feel of a book - if that helps.
I was all about it until a friend shared some pictures and comparisons of the recolouring. Now I'm not sure at all. I don't think I like it much, and since I already own the hardcovers, the oversizing now becomes the only real draw. What do you think of it?
For the Love of Comics I like it, minus the binding issues. I've only ever read the first hardcover, so the recoloring does not bother me. however, some of the recoloring is so vastly different, I'm not sure why they made those choices. like completely different color schemes, not just touch ups
Oh I hadn't heard about the binding issues! When buying something like an absolute, that would be a total deal-breaker (isn't awesome production one of the things I'm paying for?) This recolouring seems more like the total transformation of the original tone that The Killing Joke did than the less radical adjustments in Watchmen. Swamp Thing being such a hallucination and psychedelic filled work really doesn't need this - some of the panels I saw completely amputate the surreal, and I can't see the story having the same effect. I need a closer look to judge properly, but it's a chunk of change to shell out!
For the Love of Comics yes, I got it half price so I was okay rolling the dice on the binding. the cover is sort of felt textured. I thought about getting the original hardcovers, but even their paper quality is not the best. the colors are still very psychedelic and I think work well. it's just different. it's more horror-leaning, so I do feel it changes the tone of the book. I just can't get my hands on the originals for a good price
@@josepholsen7450 oh at half price I'd definitely go for it. I've heard a lot about the supposed poor paper quality of the hardcovers and yes they aren't glossy but I love the reproduction fidelity and have had no complaints about any of the production whatsoever.
I'm having trouble deciding between the absolute, slipcase or deluxe edition of watchmen. The deluxe is the cheapest edition and I just want to ask if the absolute or slipcase version is worth double the money. Cheers. (I would also like to add this is going to be my first time reading the watchmen).
I'd say if you think you may not like the book, you should see if you can find a used trade, basically the cheapest thing that still allows you to read the story. However, if you have a feeling you will like it and don't want to double dip, I'd say the Absolute Edition is hard to fault. The Deluxe does have the colours and the extras of the Absolute (but not the size) so if the price is a big factor, that will not disappoint either. The slipcase here is great but no extras, but it does have the lovely chapter structure ! In short, any way you approach it you will have fun! Good luck!
First up, Congrats, Angshuman on hitting the milestone. As for the box set, the slipcase design is just atrocious especially for such a classic like Watchmen. I dont even know who greenlit the design. That is reason enough for me to never pick up this one.
Thank you! Yes, this is one of the more inexplicable decisions I've seen on a major collector's item for sure. But honestly, the books themselves are great, which makes the box design even more of a pity!
Me too! Especially for the ones that really stand out as individual issues. I'm thinking Superman for All Seasons 😁. What do you think would work best?
I've been a fan of your page for years, and I just sifted through your archive. You have three videos on Watchmen but not much else on Alan Moore's other work. Is there any particular reason for this? Would love to see you do a deep dive into From Hell, Swamp Thing run, V for Vendetta, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, or really any other Moore. He is simply (in my humble opinion) the greatest comic writer of all time.
Thank you and what an excellent question! You're right - although I've often mentioned Alan Moore's comics in my videos - particularly Q&A videos about my favourite omics, my Top 10 Fantasy and Top 10 sci-fi comics lists and of course my shelf videos - i have yet to make videos on specific titles in the way I have for Watchmen. Part of the reason is I want to make 'portfolio' videos (more than one each) and i also want to make a Personal Top 10 Alan Moore comics list, and i can't figure out the order or approach. Should I just have an Alan Moore festival and make a handful of videos in a row? As one of my all time favourite comics creators, he totally deserves it! 😁
@@ftloc that would be cool! Maybe an Alan Moore Week or something yeah! Or just simply deep diving one of those top books like V or From Hell. An Alan Moore festival would be pretty awesome too though! I'm reading Jerusalem right now actually, it was so intimidating seeing as its a 1200 page book and all with deep prose and literature, but it's Alan freakin Moore and I felt like I had to. I'm about 300 pages in, its really good! League is next one my list.......
I remember years ago going to my local shop before Watchmen movie came out. Someone was talking to the owner about film. I made the mistake of saying it's a comic? Well he politely grabbed soft cover edition and handed it to me.
I own the standard edition, absolute is good but bit expensive, still love your video, recently introduced your site to my uncle who lives @ States & is working with publishing house. Since my interest spills over lots of other stuff like games & movies, hence need to juggle with the funds 🤪 still strarted to do my own streaming at RUclips, though as of now it's still on games but will slowly try to expand, sometimes a full time job, household chores do take its toll still try my best, perhaps you too can visit my place for your expert view 🤣
I would love to! I don't play video games as much as I used to (which was not that much anyway when I was a broke student) and I'm trying to reduce my TV and movie watching at home (which I could lose weeks to at a stretch without trouble) to try and make room for reading books and learning about video/audio. A few years ago I got into modern designer board games in a big way, and I've also had a fascination with Lego, so yes - there are always so many (expensive) 'hobbies' to juggle, both for time and money. Of course there's also real life - job and family and travel and all of that - so I know how _any_ effort made towards more is something to be appreciated. I don't know about 'expert view' but I love checking out small channels just getting started and seeing what hooks me and what doesn't, but I find I always appreciate the passion. I'll definitely be taking a look at yours - do you have any videos on the Legend of Zelda? 😁
@@ftloc seems legend of Zelda is available in Nintendo, primarily I play games in computer or PS4. My recent on going game is death stranding which is simply amazing, though it has polarized the world in a big way.

1st Bay-Bay! Have you done a review of the Graphitti Designs 1988 HC slipcase edition? I picked my copy up in 1989/90 for $75 and I still own it. Here's a review: myabsolutecollection.blogspot.com/2012/10/watchmen-graphitti-designs-limited.html From one of my 'goto 'page for collected editions: myabsolutecollection.blogspot.com/p/quick-navigation.html Love your videos.
I would love to own a copy of that edition, as well as the Graphitti From Hell, but alas they're virtually impossible to get (at a price that doesn't take away all meals for a month!). For now I will have to content myself with looking through your reviews 😀
Valid question about the necessity, but as not everyone can get their hands on the original issues, and the individual chapter structure has a lot to recommend a part by part reading, there's still a little bit of 'value'. In any case, when it comes to special editions and collectors editions, the need is always questionable, not really directed at the general readership. The questions for those interested would be if there's something new and something you can't get otherwise, and is it beautiful. There's a bit of both available here, but if it is worth it or not becomes an individual evaluation after that. As for the Moore-DC situation: there was a similar discussion elsewhere in these comments but it seems to me that whatever screwing had to be done is done. Whatever each of us thinks about it, nothing DC does now will do any additional or incremental damage to Mr Moore.
You do realize your buying these various editions support DC’s plan to perpetually f**k Alan Moore over.
At this point of time the TPB could do that all by itself 😊
You do realise that More signed a contract right?
How was DC supposed to know that Watchmen would jump start a collected edition revolution?

The questions for those interested would be if there's something new and something you can't get otherwise, and is it beautiful. There's a bit of both available here, but if it is worth it or not becomes an individual evaluation after that.
As for the Moore-DC situation: there was a similar discussion elsewhere in these comments but it seems to me that whatever screwing had to be done is done. Whatever each of us thinks about it, nothing DC does now will do any additional or incremental damage to Mr Moore.
@@ftloc agree. Books come in all shapes and formats.
