I love this videos, honestly this series its pretty straightforward but I just like to see people showcasing their collections and taking time on each book.
Thanks, my dood. I think I broke the algorithm when I posted a series about kickass character that happen to have vaginas. ;) Seriously within an hour I saw it had 17 likes and 16 dislikes...someone was upset. Oh well. Shake that crap off and keep on moving. :)
Definitely late but i think saying this here is fitting: theyre making a new birds of prey trade of 92-103 of gail simones run and it comes out early next year !! So theres all of her stuff a little easier to find now
I started on Simone's run but have the first 3 volumes of Dixon's too! Ed Benes had some mighty fine art. The men and women were very strong and attractive lol
Great video. Loved the Gail Simone run of this. Re-reading this really highlights to me how the quality of her stuff has dropped off in the last few years. For a while there she was constantly hitting it out of the park.
Hey my brother. It's the Bishoujo statue. oy..Its out of print though: www.amazon.co.uk/Kotobukiya-Comics-Huntress-Bishoujo-Statue/dp/B008LG1GDK//?tag=nearmintcon-20
Birds of prey remains my favorite comic book. I also really enjoyed Stephanie Brown as Batgirl. Such a shame the new 52 ruined everything. I haven't touched a dc book since.
Hey Omar. Have you heard about DC shutting down Vertigo? Does that mean they will no longer be pumping out Absolute Sandman's and Preacher? Or is it just a branding thing. Still new to this stuff. I'm still collecting the last few absolutes.
Thanks brother. I can't remember why I dropped it. I didn't think the team meshed well and it was poorly written. I want to say those were the reasons.
Thanks for the video, it was good info. To answer your question: the only BoP I have read is Rebirth, so while I can't compare it to previous runs I can say that I found it to be pretty good. About the middle of the pack of Rebirth titles for me. Art's good, story is good. 6 out of 10.
True enough. Also National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. Honestly they kind of slipped my mind. Maybe “very little else”? I was thinking more about the “Baby’s Day Out” era of Hughes.
Did you ever read Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane or his Nomad miniseries? I really enjoyed both of those. But, yeah. Gravity and Sentinel are probably his crowning achievements.
Good video as always. I do have one suggestion. Why don't you start this type of video trying to "sell" a bit more on the series? I have followed a couple of these reading order videos and been "sold" before the video ends, but still leaving with a couple of spoilers, even when the titles give it away, it would have been nice to leave the title be the title, because once "spoiler alert" is called, it kind of means the title is not just a title. Do you get what I mean? I do love your videos and my comic book exoerience is definitely better because of you, you near mint confition team and your omnibros. Thank you so much!
Do you mean in the case of the Death of Oracle? Just using that as an example from this video and I want to clearly know what you would like, because I do listen to everyone. :)
That G. S run on birds of prey deserves an Omnibus imo
Great video by the way as always 👍
Thank you, brother. And yes it does!
I love this videos, honestly this series its pretty straightforward but I just like to see people showcasing their collections and taking time on each book.
Thank you so much!!
why does this video have so many down votes? lol friggin dorks. anyway good job omar! always looking forward to your comic related content!

Even though me and Omar don’t see eye to eye on certain series I’ll agree with him on the Gail Simone run with how amazing it is.
Thanks for doing this reading order. Now I know how to collect this series . Take Care.
Thank you so much for watching.
I may have to get invested in Birds of Prey! Especially if it's by Dixon
You do my dood!
Nice giving DC some love 👍
Unlike what I do with my children, I don't play favorites. ;)
Dang tons of good art. Needs an absolute format book.
Dat Ed Benes art though!! Would look great in Absolute Format. :)
Thank you for this. I had no clue where to start and this has been my most anticipated series to get into.
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
I started on Simone's run but have the first 3 volumes of Dixon's too! Ed Benes had some mighty fine art. The men and women were very strong and attractive lol
Ed Benes and Dem Asses!
Great video. Loved the Gail Simone run of this. Re-reading this really highlights to me how the quality of her stuff has dropped off in the last few years. For a while there she was constantly hitting it out of the park.
She was the Queen of comics for so long. Although, I really enjoy her Red Sonja.
Near Mint Condition I’ve not gone near Red Sonia as it would mean me reading up on Conan as well and that is an expense I’m not willing to take😂
@@mrpepperami01 Oh man, her run stands alone. It's the Dynamite run. Which is getting an omnibus.
Near Mint Condition when’s it out? I know what I’m like though. Once I get that I will obsessively wander into Conan and therefore bankruptcy😂
Awesome
Thanks brother.
You are welcome
QUESTION - what is the Huntress statue at the start? Need the brand, want to track one down for the library...
Hey my brother. It's the Bishoujo statue. oy..Its out of print though:
www.amazon.co.uk/Kotobukiya-Comics-Huntress-Bishoujo-Statue/dp/B008LG1GDK//?tag=nearmintcon-20
@@NearMintCondition got damn it... I really wanted a Huntress for the collection. Cheers dude, will keep looking....
@@iamthomasjudge Eaglemoss probably sells her action figure, but usually, they are just 3 inches tall, if you don't mind.
Can you make a list in the description to make it easier to navigate pls?
Really want some omnibis! I have that Black Canary but with blue bottom :)
Yeah, that was the limited edition one wasn't it?
@@NearMintCondition Probably, it was the cheapest one at the time lol.
Birds of prey remains my favorite comic book. I also really enjoyed Stephanie Brown as Batgirl.
Such a shame the new 52 ruined everything. I haven't touched a dc book since.
Encyclopedic Enthusiasm - quite a good trait in a being of any kind.
Thank you, sir!!!
Hey Omar. Have you heard about DC shutting down Vertigo? Does that mean they will no longer be pumping out Absolute Sandman's and Preacher? Or is it just a branding thing. Still new to this stuff. I'm still collecting the last few absolutes.
I did hear. Truly the end of an era. I think it's just the label going away, but it's a weird move.
@@NearMintCondition Thanks for letting me know. Yeah it's weird.
Is the Starman omnibus for April 2020 delayed, cancelled or still going ahead?
Sadly... it's been put on hiatus. Indefinete...which is never good.
Came here from the movie
The comics are a little different than the movie. :)
Oracle the cure huh.......yeah I watched it Omar 👌🏻
My man! :) Someone called me out on it a few times. I told them it's how I know people watch.
Near Mint Condition gotta watch these there my favourite videos you do
Thank you so much!
A question, does DC have multiple canaries? Dinah, sarah, laurel? Or was it just in the arrowverse?
In the comics as well. Like the original Black Canary was Dinah's mom.
Never read anything by Gail Simone, that changes next year when that Wonder Woman Omnibus goes on sale.
I'm all over that Wonder Woman Omnibus!!
I’ve searched everywhere for birds of prey end run, but it’s all out of stock :(
Its a mess to keep those books in stock.
Where did you get those two amazing figures on the side?
The new 52 birds of prey was NOT good. Good instincts to drop it dude.
Thanks brother. I can't remember why I dropped it. I didn't think the team meshed well and it was poorly written. I want to say those were the reasons.

Thats' the Batgirl and Birds of Prey book correct?
Sean McKeever is like the John Hughes of comics; he’s good at writing teenagers, and nothing else.
But what about Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
True enough. Also National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. Honestly they kind of slipped my mind. Maybe “very little else”? I was thinking more about the “Baby’s Day Out” era of Hughes.
Oh crap. Good point on Christmas vacation. But I’ll be honest, I was never a fan of Mckeever outside of Gravity and Sentinel.
Did you ever read Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane or his Nomad miniseries? I really enjoyed both of those. But, yeah. Gravity and Sentinel are probably his crowning achievements.
Haven’t they been reprinting Gail Simone’s Birds Of Prey in thicker trades
They have, but they skipped some issues.
Wolverine reading order next?
I've added it to the poll. :)
Have you your team done anything on swamp thing with novels?
Not yet, hoping to when Absolute Swamp Thing comes out. Do an Old Reader, New Readers episode.

noicenoice
Thanks brother.
What do you think about making a "BoP" movie but leaving Oracle out and making Harley Quinn the main character?
I wasn’t a fan of the movie. At all.
@@NearMintCondition same.
Not my BoP
Super hero girls are so hot. Wish they were real. :) Thx Omar good video buddy. Have a great day.
Don't we all my friend!!? :)
i hate dc paperbacks,almost every dc paperbacks i own is falling apart,even a fe i only read once
The older ones are really cruddy. Newer ones seem to be better.
volume 2 was aweful
I want to say it was after Brightest Day and they were just trying to find spots for these people that just came back.
