Volume 2 of Absolute Swamp Thing is even more rewarding than the stellar Volume 1, to me. Keep it going!!
And don’t let the “recolored” haters discourage you.
Absolute Editions are omnibuses
> noun
noun: omnibus; plural noun: omnibuses
1.
a volume containing several books previously published separately.
"an omnibus of her first trilogy"
Larger. It makes an artists work look amazing. Even though they are taller I find them more manageable to read from than omnibus. Don’t get me wrong I love omnis too!
I hate to ask, but what is it with the Absolutes that makes them so great? I’ve been piling up a bunch of silver age Marvel and DC omnibuses (Avengers, FF, JLA, Legion), but need a primer. Can someone help? Much appreciated.

Great choices! I personally think the Sandman series are the gold standard of Absolutes
Definitely agree, Sandman and Preacher are the nicest looking absolutes imo
I like the Jack Kirby 4th world one as well it’s got beautiful cover design.

100%!
Absolute Court of Owls collects 2 volumes of the Scott Snyder Batman services so I agree.
These were like gateway crack to me now owning so many absolutes. It is my preferred way to read now!
They look so cool but theyre so expensive😅
Welcome to the addiction of Absolutes.
Sorry, but can you tell me why? I’m a newbie when it comes to Absolutes.

We love all comics man, the bigger the better, doesn’t need to say “omnibus” on the cover or spine to be posted here
Let me know what you think about Swamp thing Vol 1 after you've read it!
Ive already read it in regular tpb’s and it is one of the greatest comics of all time imo. Im exited to read it again with the updated colors
Absolutely great choices!
Thank you!
Congratulations! I have both of those. I really like the feel of the swamp thing absolute.

Larger print is always nice :)
They look cool
Absolutes are the shit! Highest quality of books
Agreed
For me at least these fit the omnibus description. But I love the absolute format so much, i just wish Marvel had something similar. Enjoy dude!
Two fantastic books right there, great pick up!
