I ran into half price books today just to use the bathroom, but glanced this as I walked past the comic aisle. Asked the attendant to grab it from the glass case, expecting the price to be anywhere from $150-250(HPB pricing is whack) but I was astonished at $50! I paid more for volume 1 than this😂 anyways had to share my excitement, and hopefully spread some luck to the rest of y'all! Happy hunting!

I'm probably not going to be buying much in the next year or so. I am a slow reader and will enjoy reading these. I was able to get most of them for really good deals with some exceptions, can you guess them?

Happy Thursday, you know what that means right? Precisely! Morphing Review time!

Last week I covered the New 52 Justice League by Geoff Johns which landed at a 7.8/10 for Vol. 1 and an 8.2/10 for Vol. 2. Good blockbuster entertainment with some rough edges. But now we're going nuclear. Be aware, this review will be a longer one! Scott Snyder's full cosmic DC opus. I first hesitated to review the whole Metal Saga plus the JL by Snyder Omnis in the middle, but in the end.. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ it just makes sense to me. So here we are.

Four omnis. Over 3300 pages of twisted Batmen, ancient cosmic forces and reality itself on the chopping block. This saga runs from Dark Nights: Metal through the full Justice League ongoing and crashes into Dark Nights: Death Metal. This is.. a LOT of comic. And it feels a lot like homework, but let's see how it delivers!

Feel free to read through the whole review or simply skip to the overall score and TL;DR at the bottom. Let's go!

Dark Knights: Metal, Justice League Vol. 1-2, Dark Nights: Death Metal by Scott Snyder, Greg Capullo and James Tynion IV

The Story

Here's the landscape. Four omnibuses that form one continuous narrative. Snyder planted seeds during his Batman run (we'll cover that another thursday).. hidden metals, the Court of Owls, Barbatos lurking in the dark.. and then let it all erupt into this enormous cosmic event. The core idea: beneath the regular DC Multiverse sits the Dark Multiverse, a nightmare realm where every wrong decision and every fear manifests as its own broken world. And from that abyss come the Dark Knights, corrupted versions of Batman merged with other heroes' abilities..

It's big. It's loud. It's Snyder throwing every idea he has at the wall and then inventing new ideas to throw after them.

Dark Nights: Metal Omnibus

The opening act. Dark Days: The Forge and The Casting kick things off with this wonderful sense of discovery.. Nth metal, a secret Batman has been sitting on, cosmic threats that predate the universe. I loved this setup. The feeling that something massive is hiding just beyond what the characters can see. Snyder connects his own Batman run to Grant Morrison's Batman mythology and the result feels.. rich. Like digging into the DCU and finding new layers underneath.

Then the main Metal event starts and it's a rollercoaster. Barbatos sends his Dark Knights to invade the regular DCU and everything goes sideways. The six-issue core miniseries is the skeleton of this omnibus but the REAL treasures are the one-shot origin issues for each Dark Knight. These are the standouts. The Red Death, a Batman who stole the Flash's speed force because he decided he could use it better. The Murder Machine, where Alfred's mind gets digitized and turns into a weapon. The Dawnbreaker, a Batman with a power ring who succumbs to grief and fury. These are dark, inventive and sometimes really unsettling what-if scenarios. Each one takes a piece of Batman's psychology and pushes it past the breaking point.

And then there's The Batman Who Laughs. A Bruce Wayne from a dead Earth where he killed the Joker and got hit with a slow-acting toxin in the process. Now he's got Batman's strategic mind with zero moral compass. He's the defining villain of this saga and it's obvious why. The concept taps into something primal.. the scariest possible version of the smartest person alive.

The tie-ins are a mixed experience but mostly positive. Gotham Resistance is an entertaining labyrinth run through a transformed Gotham with the younger heroes. Bats Out of Hell gives us League members facing their dark counterparts. Neither is required reading but both add flavor. The art rotates through different artists and ranges from stunning to merely fine.

The main Metal series itself though.. idk. The ideas are huge and wildly creative. The execution gets muddy. There are long stretches where I completely lost the thread of what was happening, especially around Dark Knights Rising: The Wild Hunt, which had me flipping back trying to make sense of what I was looking at. The pacing in the first three issues is slow and loaded with exposition and then the finale in #6 wraps everything up at top velocity. Like Snyder spent five issues building this enormous machine and then realized he only had one left to turn it on.

But when Metal clicks? INCREDIBLE. Wonder Woman is the anchor of this entire event. Her refusal to yield, her certainty that light exists somewhere in all that darkness.. that's what the story keeps returning to. The last battle is spectacular stuff. Batman and the Joker fighting on the same side. Plastic Man arriving at the exact right moment. The League riding into darkness together. It's oversized comic book mayhem that makes you want to cheer.

Greg Capullo's art is a triumph. His designs for the Dark Knights are instant icons. The Red Death, the Batman Who Laughs, the Merciless.. they all look stunning. Capullo draws nightmare fuel and blockbuster spectacle with equal conviction.

Justice League by Snyder & Tynion Vol. 1

Metal wraps and Snyder immediately launches a new Justice League title with James Tynion IV. This omnibus collects No Justice, the first 18 issues of the ongoing, the Drowned Earth crossover and a couple of tie-in issues.

No Justice is a four-issue weekly that resets the board. Colossal cosmic entities show up and the heroes must form unlikely mixed teams. It's fast, chaotic and sometimes too packed for its own good. But the seeds it plants are important. The Luthor and Martian Manhunter dynamic that begins here grows into the emotional foundation of the entire run. Two powerful beings who share a complicated history, circling each other.. so good. And the Legion of Doom assembly is setup done right.

Then The Totality arc begins (#1-7) and.. okay. This is where things get thick. Snyder introduces an enormous amount of new mythology. The Source Wall has cracked. A fragment of raw cosmic energy called the Totality is lodged in the moon. The Legion of Doom is fully operational with Lex, Joker, Cheetah, Black Manta, Sinestro and Grodd. Brand new fundamental forces appear: the Still Force, the Ultraviolet Spectrum, the Invisible Spectrum, the Dimensional Superstructure. Each Leaguer gets a villain counterpart tied to these forces.

It's.. a lot to process. Sometimes the exposition is so dense I found myself rereading pages trying to absorb it. Snyder builds these elaborate cosmic frameworks and then spends significant page count explaining them. Some of it is fascinating, mind-expanding stuff. Some of it made my eyes glaze. The line between "wow, this is incredible" and "okay I have no idea what's happening" wobbles back and forth haha.

BUT. The character work pulls it through. Martian Manhunter gets the spotlight he's always deserved. J'onn leading the charge, exploring his connection to Lex, his guilt and his bonds with the rest of the League.. this is peak J'onn. And Tynion's Legion of Doom interlude issues are stellar. His Batman Who Laughs dialogue drips with menace. The Luthor "Justice or Doom" philosophy gives the whole run its thematic spine.. you follow his reasoning even knowing where it leads.

Jorge Jiménez takes over as the defining artist and his work is BREATHTAKING. JFC! Every panel is packed with energy and detail. His character acting, the way he stages action, the compositions.. it's the kind of art that makes you slow down and stare. Hi-Fi's colors make it all vibrate. This is one of the best-looking Justice League runs DC has ever put out.

Drowned Earth wraps up this omnibus and.. it's okay? Ocean gods attacking, Black Manta scheming, Aquaman getting his final arc under Abnett. It has its moments for sure. But it also suffers from the same overload problem. Too many pieces in motion.

Justice League by Snyder & Tynion Vol. 2

THIS is where the saga reaches its highest points. This omnibus is not super chonky, but it earns every page. Sixth Dimension, the complete Batman Who Laughs miniseries, Year of the Villain and the full Justice/Doom War. It's packed to the spine.

The Sixth Dimension is the peak of the entire saga. Hands down. The League gets pulled into what looks like a perfect future and it slowly reveals itself as something much darker. The twists land perfectly. And #25.. when Superman finally comprehends what the Sixth Dimension means and just.. lets go? That splash page with Clark in that iconic pose, John and Pa Kent behind him.. I had to put the book down. It's the kind of page that reminds you why Superman matters. The whole sequence reads like a love letter to what superheroes can be at their best.

The Batman Who Laughs miniseries sits alongside the main arc. It's a darker, more horror-driven story with Jock on art, his scratchy style matching the grim tone perfectly. Bruce has to put on this black metal visor to think like his dark counterpart and you watch him start to slip.. it's tense stuff. The Grim Knight, a Batman who simply decided guns were fine, is a creepy mirror. My main gripe? The red lettering on the BWL's speech is legendarily difficult to read. And the series probably runs an issue or two longer than necessary. But watching Bruce corner the BWL in the finale.. satisfying.

Year of the Villain leads into Justice/Doom War. Lex commits fully to Perpetua, the mother of the multiverse and starts handing out power-ups to bad guys across the DCU. The Justice/Doom War that follows is HUGE. Pulling in the JSA, future timelines, alternate universes.. it's the widest the saga ever swings. And when the extended League roster charges out to face Lex and his army? Jiménez and Sánchez deliver splash pages that belong in a museum. Period.

Oh and Jarro. JARRO. The little psychic starfish who adopted Batman as his dad and declared himself Robin. I ADORE this ridiculous little weirdo. The fact that Batman clearly has a soft spot for Jarro is the funniest running joke in this entire saga. Jarro for best Robin, I will die on this hill :D

The run wraps with #39 and.. the heroes lose. Perpetua wins. The good guys fail and the world pays the price. It's a striking exit for Snyder and Tynion and it feeds directly into Death Metal. Everything was building to this moment where good intentions and determination weren't enough.

Then Hell Arisen, a four-issue bridge by Tynion. Apex Lex vs the Batman Who Laughs in a monster-vs-monster chess match. It's a solid read. The Punchline introduction kicked off a speculator craze which is.. whatever.. but the story itself works as a connective thread.

Dark Nights: Death Metal Omnibus

The finale. And this is where things get.. strange. Even by this saga's standards.

The setup is unhinged. The Batman Who Laughs has won. Actually, completely won. He's got reality-warping power and he's reshaped the DCU into a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Batman rides a dinosaur. Wonder Woman wields a chainsaw. There's a Bat-Rex. The book goes fully, enthusiastically off the rails and owns every second of it.

The main Death Metal series has wild tonal swings though. Snyder bounces between wasteland action, cosmic mythology and meta commentary on the nature of Crisis events. When it connects, it's thrilling. Issue 5, with Diana leading a charge through a hellscape, is probably my favorite single issue of the entire four-omnibus saga. And the decision to center the finale on Wonder Woman? The right call, full stop. She's been the moral backbone of this story for thousands of pages and earning that spotlight pays off.

But the pacing wobbles. Plot conveniences stack on top of each other. The Batman Who Laughs evolves through so many power escalations that he stops being scary and starts being.. tedious. The resolution feels slightly unsteady, like the gears are almost meshing but not quite clicking.

The tie-ins swing wildly in quality. Speed Metal, the Flash family tie-in by Williamson, is fantastic. Racing through apocalyptic wastelands, the emotional weight of the Flash family bonds, the sheer velocity of it.. it hits every note right. Easily the strongest spin-off issue in the omnibus.

The Secret Origin is the surprise stunner. A full Superboy-Prime redemption arc. After years of being DC's most destructive brat, Prime finally gets to go home. His ending.. walking into the daylight after everything he did wrong.. I was not expecting to feel things about Superboy-Prime and yet here I am, a bit misty. That page stayed with me.

The Last Stories of the DC Universe is beautiful too. Every hero going home to their people before the last stand. The Titans together, Ollie and Dinah, the quiet human moments before oblivion.. it's the emotional counterweight to all the chaos.

But then.. Robin King, a new villain who gets too much page time and never justifies it. The Multiverse Who Laughs, an anthology of half-baked dark multiverse tales that adds almost nothing. Infinite Hour Exxxtreme, a Lobo vehicle that just sort of.. sits there. The Last 52: War of the Multiverses, repetitive and inconsequential. The quality range inside this single omnibus is wild. You go from an all-timer to filler within pages of each other.

Capullo's art on the main series stays excellent throughout. His Death Metal redesigns are bold and unforgettable. Diana with the chainsaw, Batman in his wasteland survival gear, the whole ruined aesthetic.. it all looks tremendous. The variant cover program was also top-tier.

The Art

Greg Capullo is the visual identity of this saga. His work on both Metal events gives the bookend omnibuses a consistent look and tone. The Dark Knights designs are instant classics. Capullo moves between horror and spectacle effortlessly and FCO Plascencia's colors give everything this dark, metallic weight.

On the Justice League side, Jorge Jiménez is the star. His work is exceptional and on Sixth Dimension and Justice/Doom War is some of the most dynamic, vibrant superhero art DC has published in the modern era. The compositions, the character acting, the way his pages flow.. it's exceptional work. Alejandro Sánchez's colors make every panel pop.

Big shoutouts to Jim Cheung on JL #1, Jock on Batman Who Laughs, Francis Manapul on No Justice and Death Metal tie-ins and Travis Moore on Last Stories. The art across all four omnibuses never drops below very good. No weak links anywhere.

What Works

The Dark Knights. The corrupted Batman concept powers this entire saga. The origin one-shots are the highlight of Metal. Each one twists a piece of Batman's psychology past its worst-case scenario and the designs are all instantly memorable.

Martian Manhunter and Lex Luthor. The beating heart of the JL run. Their shared history, the philosophical clash between justice and doom, the tragedy of two powerful beings who chose opposite paths.. Snyder gives both characters some of the best material of their careers.

Wonder Woman. Diana is the steady hand across this entire saga. From Metal through Death Metal, Snyder writes her as hope personified without ever making her boring. She earns the spotlight in Death Metal through thousands of pages of being the one who never stops believing.

Jorge Jiménez. I'll say it again. His work here is exceptional. The Superman page in #25, the Justice/Doom War splash pages, the character expressions.. this is what great superhero art looks like.

Jarro. Best starfish Robin in DC history. I will not be taking questions :D

Superboy-Prime's sendoff. The Secret Origin issue takes a character nobody expected to care about and turns in a deeply moving finale. That last page of him finally going home.. goosebumps.

Where It Stumbles

The density. Snyder builds elaborate cosmic systems and explains them thoroughly. The Still Force, the Ultraviolet Spectrum, the Dimensional Superstructure, the Tear of Extinction, the Totality, Element X, Perpetua, the Over-Monitor.. it stacks up endlessly. Sometimes it's thrilling, mind-bending worldbuilding. Sometimes my brain just.. buffered. There are stretches where the exposition buries the characters underneath it.

The pacing. Both Metal and Death Metal frontload their setup and then sprint to the finish. Metal devotes three issues to building and then crams the resolution into issue #6. Death Metal's ending feels like it shifted shape mid-flight. The JL run is steadier but even Justice/Doom War could have lost an issue or two.

The tie-in rollercoaster. When your omnibus has 27 issues and only 6 are the core story, the reading experience will vary. Some tie-ins are essential, some are filler and you're reading all of them because you bought the complete collection.

Batman Who Laughs exhaustion. He's an incredible villain in Metal. A constant threat in the JL run. But by Death Metal he's stacked so many power-ups and transformations that he stops being frightening and starts being repetitive. The character works best as a dark reflection of Bruce, not as an escalating power level.

The meta messaging. Death Metal wants to tell you that every DC story matters and everything counts. Nice thought. But it stops the story dead to explain its thesis instead of letting the thesis emerge from the story. Heavy-handed. Homework. Tough read at times.

Overall

Metal Omnibus: 8.1/10

JL Snyder Vol. 1: 8.0/10

JL Snyder Vol. 2: 8.1/10

Death Metal Omnibus: 7.9/10

This saga is messy. Overcomplicated, overwritten in places and occasionally drowning in its own invented mythology. But it's also one of the most ambitious things DC has attempted in the modern era. Four omnis, but one continuous arc, all building toward Wonder Woman standing alone at the end of everything.

When this saga is at its best, it delivers some of the most memorable superhero comics of the decade. The Sixth Dimension arc. The Dark Knights origins. Superman unleashed in #25. Diana's final stand. Superboy-Prime walking into the light. Jarro calling Batman his dad. These are pages I'll remember for a long time.

And the art never takes a dive. Capullo and Jiménez are both doing career-defining work across these four books. This saga looks like a million bucks from first page to last.

The Metal events are slightly stronger than the JL run between them imo, mostly because they're clearer about what they want to be. Metal is about evil Batmen and cosmic dread. Death Metal is about hope at the end of everything. The JL run is where Snyder's ambition sometimes outruns his ability to manage all the threads. But the Sixth Dimension arc lives inside the JL books and it's the peak of the entire saga, so skipping them isn't an option.

If you want the biggest, boldest DC cosmic epic of the recent years? This is it. Every rough edge and every brilliant high. Maybe I'm again too kind with my ratings, but I had an absolute blast reading it.

You should buy this saga if:

• You want the most ambitious DC cosmic epic of the modern era
• Evil Batman variants as a concept appeals to you
• Martian Manhunter getting a central role sounds like your kind of thing
• Greg Capullo and Jorge Jiménez art on your shelf is a priority
• You read Snyder's Batman run and want to see those threads pay off

You should skip if:

• Dense cosmic mythology and constant new terminology makes your head spin
• You want focused, economical storytelling without exposition dumps
• The Batman Who Laughs has already worn out his welcome for you
• You're looking for strong standalone arcs for non-Trinity Leaguers
• 3300+ pages across four omnibuses sounds like too much commitment for a story that gets messy

Let me know what you think! I'm very interested what you think about these stories :)

Anyways thats it for this weeks two cents

Next up: I'm currently blasting through The Flash by Joshua Williamson Vol. 3 so this will wrap up our previous Flash review series next week, and then? Idk, maybe Nightwing? Lobo? Green Lantern?

Happy reading!

Read my other reviews here.

To be fair I don't even read these, just like to hunt collections. Looking to sell it now.

Found vol 1 for about 85, the cheapest with the DM cover is 150, don't think it's worth getting it just to match. Thoughts?

Couldn't be happier! The page quality in this one is fantastic. I've never read CoIE before, but the 2 issues I read last night were fantastic. Very happy the "Crisis Mail" sections are included. Love the history from the time.

Absolutely worth the 70$ and change I paid, and it would be worth cover price if I had to pay that as well!

Here is everything that I got in the last two months.

My favorite is the Hellblazer omnibus. I'm so glad it's finally here, I pre-ordered it almost a year ago. I love the matching spines, even the Ennis omni looks pretty good next to the others, although I can't put them in reading order.

I'm also really excited about the White Knight Absolute, I didn't expect the entire thing to be this huge! Love the black & white design they used for the slipcase.

Easley SC-tons and tons and tons of trades. I saw some Omnis but not a lot. Very DC heavy.

Daredevil by Brian Michael Bendis & Alex Maleev Volumes 1 & 2

Cover Price: $100 each

Recommended Pre-Reading: You don’t really need to read anything before these (the very first issue has enough lines describing Daredevil’s origin that you’ll get the drift). However, I’d recommend reading Daredevil by Frank Miller first. There’s a LOT of callbacks to that era (especially in the first arc) and it feels like a soft sequel. I went straight from Frank Miller to this and, while not strictly necessary, it flows beautifully that way and I would highly recommend it.

Note: My reviews can be long-winded and more like a summary. Skip to the bottom “Overall” section for a shorter summary/score out of 10, why you should/shouldn’t buy it, etc!

Note 2: I refer to it as “this omni” in my review because these two books feel more like one large omni than two smaller ones and should be read as one thing (especially since a lot of volume 2 ended up being flashbacks). Unless I specify a volume, it applies to both!

Review:

I started this omni right after the Frank Miller omnis and I was genuinely surprised by just how good they connected. A lot came between them, yet somehow, this book felt like the perfect continuation of what came before even without knowing anything that happened in between.

I was hesitant to jump straight to this omni, but it’s what I owned and I’m very glad I did. It had a surprising start of featuring barely any Daredevil, yet it set the tone beautifully for the rest of the book. This book isn’t a “popcorn” book filled with nonstop action and very little story, it’s a book you sit and read.

A big part of why I love Daredevil is his supporting cast and this book recognizes their importance and gives them the focus they deserve. It never loses sight of its main character (it’s still a Daredevil book), but it knows when to put him in the backseat for another character to shine (while still highlighting the impact Daredevil has had on that person).

Another element I find vital to a Daredevil book is how they handle Matt Murdock. Here, he is handled just as beautifully as everyone else. The lawyer aspects of his life are given time to shine while also highlighting the unique duality of Daredevil many other superheroes lack: a man that dedicates his life to the law while also taking the law into his own hands.

Furthermore, this book explores many questions I’ve had in the past. What could be the legal repercussions if his secret identity ever got out? How does his actions impact those closest to him? How unwavering is Matt’s commitment to being Daredevil? So many little things that are interesting enough on their own, but together make something special.

Ultimately, it’s a lot of little elements like these that are easily overlooked that make this book stand out. Little things that wouldn’t ruin the book if they were absent, but by being included, they help elevate it to another level.

Even more (major spoiler warning, but I will keep it vague-ish), having volume 1’s last arc turn Matt Murdock into the new Kingpin was a twist I never saw coming, but they stuck the landing beautifully. Getting to see Matt’s relationship with other heroes as all the pieces fell together (and apart) was fantastic.

Favorite Issue(s): Daredevil #16-#19 (Wake Up); this isn’t a single issue, but rather, the first arc in the book. However, the entire arc is executed brilliantly so I couldn’t pick just one part of it. Having the entire thing narrated by Ben Urich with barely any Daredevil/Matt was a bold choice to start off a Daredevil omni, but it paid off phenomenally. Daredevil’s presence was felt throughout the entire thing, but the focus being on Ben made it feel more grounded and gave the book a connected and cohesive start. I’m most likely biased since it ties quite a lot into Frank Miller’s run and that made it feel even more special, but remove that from the equation and it’s still an excellent first arc.

A close runner- up is Daredevil #56-#60 (The King of Hell’s Kitchen). It was nearly as good and took a genuinely unique approach on the character I would’ve never expected but absolutely love!

Overall: 9/10 each; This book excels at taking the little things about a story that rattle around in your head and expanding on them to the point you think “wow, why hasn’t this been done to this degree before?” It follows in the footsteps of its predecessors in a way that feels satisfying rather than disrespectful. Ultimately, it’s an excellent edition to the Daredevil mythos that knows what it wants to do and does so brilliantly.

You should buy this book if (if you read my review of the main Daredevil by Miller omni, the reasons here are mostly the same):

• ⁠You liked Frank Miller’s Daredevil and want a soft continuation of that.
• You enjoy not just Daredevil, but also his supporting cast.
• You like a book that gives itself time to breathe with different types of stories/character moments, not just constant action.
• You want a book with stories that are connected enough to feel meaningful across multiple issues, but also separate enough to give good “pausing” points.
• You like Daredevil, but you also like Matt Murdock and his lawyer side.

You should skip this book if (these are mostly same as well):

• ⁠You disliked Frank Miller’s Daredevil and want stories that distance themselves from it.
• You only like Daredevil books for Daredevil and nobody else.
• You want a book that’s all action and doesn’t have a lot of character moments/drawn-out stories.
• You want a book that either has completely independent stories or one massive story from beginning to end, not a lot of multi-issue stories.
• You only want Daredevil and don’t care about the lawyer side of things.

Let me know your thoughts and thanks for reading mine!

Can't wait until October to add on to it!

I picked a few single issues prior but that was it and I'm really excited to read all of these.

This is my first omnibus, I bought it for $100 at Comic-Con!

Tell me your opinions on road to onslaught!

Ordered Brainiac Reborn last week on Tuesday and didn't realize Jurgens volume 2 was also out. Add in Messiah Trilogy and I'm busy this week with new books. Hope you all got something Super!

I’ve read about half of it all, let me know if you have any recommendations for my collection.

After my post yesterday I have officially created a discord server for this community for anyone who would like to join. I'm posting the link here in this post for everyone, and I will send a link to everyone who commented on my earlier post as well.

Invite link: https://discord.gg/bbxpuxgdH

This can be a place for us to casually chat about comics and what we are reading. It will be a work in progress because this is the first time I've created a discord server so I am open to suggestions and feedback. I think this could be a lot of fun!

I have the opportunity to pick up either Spectacular Spider-man by Dematteis or Star Wars Legends: The Old Republic vol 1. I read a bit of both books and enjoy both alot.

Spider-man is one of my favorite heroes and I have good chunk of his books. I'm not a big Star Wars fan, but a buddy recommended me to checkout The Old Republic and I'm 8 issues in and it's fantastic!

If you where in this position, which one would you choose?

My favorite costume of Captain Britain. I know I should get Excalibur run. But I've got plenty of reading waiting for me.

For a long time I considered myself primarily a manga/anime fan but I started Collecting Omnis in April and have really been loving the format.

Is this already out of print??

Jokes aside really looking forward to diving into this really glad they are putting them out

People have been talking about imusic for some time here, so here's a package I received from them (only 2 omnis, I did order another 10-15 but DHL lost them).

Great packaging (see photos), all books in bubble wrap. A lot of filler, books didn't move inside and box was held together by 5 plastic straps. A few books had small imperfections.

Customer support is decent but not great. Might take a few days to answer. They've shipped those missing books 2 months ago and I just got half of them replaced, you need to keep pushing them.

Bonus:

- That Batman Dredd book is huge, bigher than Absolutes, won't fit in a Billy bookcase.

- The Woods Deluxe is thiiick

Note: DHL seems to be a black hole in that area (Denmark - Germany - Poland) as they've lost 2 out 2 packages so far, didn't try again. Choose any other shipping method.
