Damn! Wasn't expecting a part 3. Omar is putting in the work for us. Thanks brutha!

I've put my back out and bed bound and then the Uncanny Omar blesses me with this video I love your complete reading orders dude thank you.

Omar is truly the best there is at what he does. The man!

This channel deserves 90k subscribers. I am speechless due to this amazing reading order.

Thanks so much, Omar. My head is spinning though from the realization that getting the Dini omni would mean flipping between Batman by Morrison, Final Crisis and the couple of trades/standard hardcovers you had in there. This is definitely a bit daunting but trying my best to fill all the gaps in my collection. It’s a lot and part 4 hasn’t even come out yet lol.

Keep it coming dude! Loving that you're doing this list!

I've just started collecting trades. thanks to your videos it's been really easy.

Omar, thanks for doing this. I'm probably one of the few who can read Morrison's omnibus volumes straight through without the continuity bothering me just treat it as standalone. However, you have put me on to Streets of Gotham. Dini is awesome and Dick Grayson kicked but in Black Mirror which I'm hoping to collect in Absolute b4 it goes OOP. Oversized when I can, keep up the awesome videos.

This has helped me so much. Thanks Omar!

Great video Omar. Again extremely helpful in trying to make sense of Batman continuity. I am very tempted by the Morrison Omniboos even if it means double & triple dipping on my trades and HC's. You have also highlighted books I wasn't aware of. Looking forward to part 4 very much. Cheers mate 😎😁

Great video series, and I'm excited to read the Paul Dini and Grant Morrison runs. I am wondering where in all of this I can jump in!

Awesome, Omar! Nice, that Antonio S. Daniel 😂

This part was the most useful for me so far as i haven't even heard of some of the books on this list. I have 4 out of the 24 you listed. Those are grant Morrison volume 1,2 black mirror and flashpoint. I suspect the last part i will have most of them though😁

Love these videos, great job man

Now that's what I call some effort !! Keep up the great work Omar !!

Best reading order ever! Excellent, Omar, excellent 😎👍👍

Thanks for this comprehensive list. Extremely informative.

Thanks omar! Such an in depth reading order as always. I have just purchased the 3 grant Morrison omnis. Looks like I need to spend a load more money on side trades before I start reding them 🤣 I have pre-ordered the dini omni so that's should fill a lot of gaps. Cant wait for part 4!! 😄

I love Black Glove and Issue 666. I been slowly trying to read through the Morrison run. I am at Final Crisis now

I just started collecting the bat family new 52 and rebirth so these are helpful when I expand into the older stuff!

Man, it would be so much easier if they didn't feel obligated to focus omnibus on creators instead of runs. Having to excise material because of guest artists/writers just confuses readers or forces us to get other books and jump back and forth between them. So frustrating.

So impressed you did this reading order. Amazing job. :)

Thanks Omar. Btw I think all of Hush money is in the Dini omni so you can get rid of the trade 😀. Need a few to fill in the gaps. That resurrection of ra’s al Gul is OOP. I’d add Tomasi’s Batman and Robin to the reading order but you might include that in part four.

Hey Omar! Loving these reading order. I'm a huge batmam collector I was wondering if maybe you could make a writen list of all the books. Including your suggestions that aren't physically in the video. It might be to much to ask but boy would it be helpful 😅

Wow I'm missing a few of these trades. Gotta hunt them down. Thanks, Omar!

Very nice, great content as usual !

Thanks a bunch Omar! Also appreciated your answer on my question on Instagram! Absolutely awesome guy who knows his stuff, mad mad respect. I was wondering if Batman Eternal still needs to pop up or is that not mainline?

What an effort, thanks Omar! It should not be this damn complicated, man. Most of this era is so nostalgic for me (I don't know how well regarded some runs are but it's probably my favourite period in the DCU?) I wish it was easier to collect in full. Off to hunt down some missing pieces myself.

I double-dog, no, triple dog dare anyone to find anyone anywhere who does these types of videos better than Omar. The amount of work and, most importantly, love that he puts into these videos is jawdropping. I'm VERY proud of you my dear friend. #OmarRules #ProveMeWrongIdareYa

Awesome Omar.. That was a great effort as always... That was sneaky in the end, are we going to get a separate overview?

Hey man great video as usual. I'm sure you know DC are doing a hardcover batman Road to no mans land omnibus!! Appreciate all the brilliant content you do mate.

I will be interested if in part 4 we get these books batman and robin, all star batman and the big one for me is dark knights metal which i know is awesome Omar if you have not read and the tie ins are really good as well.

Omar, I don't know if you'll see this, but I'm doing (most of) your reading order. I just got to Morrison 2 and Black Mirror. I think it's a mistake to do Black Mirror before returning to Morrison 2. In Black Mirror's prologue text, it basically lays out what happens in The Return of Bruce Wayne. I checked publication dates, and it looks like Black Mirror was in fact published quite a bit of time after The Return of Bruce Wayne. So I think finishing Morrison 2 before Black Mirror is the way to go.

Still appreciating the heck out of this reading order. One of the main runs I'd like to complete. I have to ask, lol, do you check to make sure you have all the books first before committing? Have you ever committed to doing a reading order and then discover that you're missing a few?

Thank you for another great and helpful video Omar. I have one question though. I have the 3 Morrison omniboo and am planning on getting the Paul Dini omnibus. What order should I read these omniboo if I don’t want to skip back and forth too much?

Great video love your channel ! Can I read the Final Crisis omnibus without having read the Grant Morrison batman run ? Or will I feel like there's something missing ? I own the identity crisis book and infinite crisis & the 52 omnibi.

Loved this video. As it so happens this some of what I've been reading. I am very fond of this period when Dick Grayson was Batman! Recall thinking when I read it in floppies, I hope Bruce stays dead a long time. Was a bit disappointed when he returned so dang fast. Anyways. Here's my question: does this reading order account for every of appearance of Grayson as Batman?

Literally just bought The Resurrection of Ra's al Ghul HC today on ebay. It sucks that it isn't oversized and that it's not included in any of the omnis, but it could be worse I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️ Great vid as always brother. I can't imagine the amount of work you need to put in to make these. It's very appreciated!

Hey Omar, I ordered the Batman Grant Morrison omnibus volume 1 and The New 52 Batman and robin omnibus, hope it was a good choice. Thanks for the video m8

Mi amigo , here I decide that ok I've finished New 52 I'll start a pre flashpoint reading order of Batman , then I open various sites and other stuff wondering what's my budget how much paperbacks or digital versions I need, get all frustrated and about to leave then open YT and Shazam! Uncanny Omar appears and gives the complete reading order . Thanks so much

Great video Omar. I am going to buy the Paul Dini omnibus, do you reconmend it? Would I feel lost with all the issues that DC skipped in streets of Gotham and detective comics? Thank you!

I bought signed copies of heart of hush, house of hush, and lil Gotham at half price books. I find it kind of funny that the only signed books I ever find are all signed by Dustin Nguyen.

I've been collecting batman rebirth deluxe editions and the post crisis books. We so need a superman reading order

Speaking of Batman, I hope all David Finch and Tony S. Daniel's issues that they wrote and/or illustrated get printed into an omnibus. The sooner the better!!

I have a question... not about Batman but about omnibus in general, is it better to get omnibus off say EBay and amazon or a bookstore if you are close. The reason I’m asking is because I’ve seen some omnibus cheaper on eBay and thinking about starting my collection this way. Thank you for all you do on the channel, I’m kind of new to the channel and it’s awesome.

I'd much rather have the Batman and Robin trades but seeing as it's more expensive to buy it that way currently, I may have to go for the Omni.

An idea, comprehensive reading order for green arrow? Or maybe daredevil. Just some ideas but i get it takes a lot of work to make these and i really appreciate the hard work use guys do. Loved the vid, keep safe guys!!!

Great videos, man. Keep it up!!! Did I hear you correctly? I should read the Snyder New 52 run between Under the Red Hood/War Crimes and Face the Face? Because I was under the impression that the reboot came after the Morrison stuff with The Black Mirror sort of being a prelude to Snyder’s New 52 run. I’m currently reading Hush Returns on my 1st journey through the “complete” timeline. Thanks in advance.

Where is Tom with the list? Awesome videos man!!!

Yikes! Collecting Batman is a daunting task. I'm beginning to regret purchasing that Dini omnibus after seeing all the issues that are missing.

This ma n never disappoints!!!

The Dini Omnibus has holes like Swiss cheese. I think I just made the decision to pass on it and invest in the individual trades and small HCs.

City of Crime takes place before War Games if I remember right. There were few stories published after War Games but take place before it.

13:16 Haha 😂!! No, nothing is ever easy when it comes to Batman comics 🤣!! Oh it's been a while since I've read this graphic novel but it makes sense that all of Batman's allies would want to face off for the title; although, I always saw it as more of a 'birthright' for Bruce's 4 sons to have deliberate on their own. Technically Cassandra Cain could partake as well since she is Bruce's legally adopted daughter but it just seemed like more of a son's issue. I'm glad about the writer's final decision but really think it would have been interesting if the 3rd Robin (Tim Drake) took over the cowl. He always seemed to be the most level-headed of the bunch if not a little neurotic but an Elseworld story where this happens would be quite interesting. Heck, DC could age up all the characters and do a 'What if' series where we see how Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Damien Wayne & even Cassandra Cain, Carie Kelley, & Stephanie Brown would handle the responsibility of Batman. It would lead to some interesting dynamics between characters and could show how differently each past Robin or Child of Bruce would manage the responsibility of protecting Gotham.

is a superman one expected down the line? Love your work Omar!!!! Collected edition king!

Welp guess I'm getting Batman by Paul Dini instead of Absolute Dark Knight this month.

When would you say is best to read the Superman/Batman omnibus ?

Holy book collection, Batman! I have never realized how shallow my Batman knowledge was until now!

Probably an unpopular opinion but I think Black mirror is a top 3 batman comic of all time

Jason Todd reading order. Robin(s) reading order please and thanks

My head is spinning watching this

This is better than the second coming of Jesus! God bless you Omar! God bless 🙏 🙌!

Oh YES

I thought Black Mirror happened after Bruce Wayne came back. I also just read Batman Inc as one story, or one part of Grant Morrison's run, since Grant Morrison was pissed off with Flashpoint and didn't want to deal with that or have it mess up what he intended for his run.

Bro that's what I'm talking about. To bad theres no batman caped crusader omnibus 😶

Omar, concerning the Dini Omnibus, I have Detective, Death and The City, Private Casebook, Heart of Hush, Hush Money, Leviathan, and House of Hush in tpb/hc. Which books would it be okay to let go, and which books would you recommend keeping?

I wouldve put Higgins and Synders book Gates of Gotham with Graysons Batman time

Is there any Grant Morrison run in paperback and also what is the specific title I know it's Batman but like is there like a subtitle is what I'm asking

Hummm...🤔...I didn't gather anything that really intriguing for this batch of books...🤷🏻💯✔️

Omar ,where should I put Death and the Maidens in my reading order?

I have never read Hush but was thinking of getting Paul Dini omnibus. Does it contain Hush? If not what's the best way to collect it and does everything in that new omnibus follow on from Hush?

At Batman #658 do i have to stop and read The Resurrection of Ras al ghul? Or do i have to stop reading at #669? Because the resurrection of ras al ghul starts at #670. I am confused.

Man we really need a war games omni well it would probably require 2 omnis

I just got the first two volumes of Grant Morrison's Omnibus. Can I read those two without stopping to read everything in between (the 3rd volume is currently on order, just waiting for it to arrive)

Any chance you will do an updated Spider-Man reading order to include some of the trades that aren't in oversized format?

Damn, I count 88 books so far across the 3 videos and i only have 30 😢

Hey Omar; one book you mentioned "Hush Money", is all in the upcoming Dini Omnibus. Every issue. Also, you ragged on the Omnibus a lot. I honestly don't know why, considering that it is, for the most part, complete. Yes, I know it skips the Dini issues, but that is, understandably, not part of his main run so I get why they skipped it. Just being honest on my part, sir. Also: Batman The Black Mirror takes place AFTER Morrison Omnibus Vol. 2 and during Omnibus Vol. 3, since it was during the Batman Inc. days.

Great reading order, but *SPOILER ALERT* Streets of Gotham: House of Hush and Batman Eye of the Beholder should be read after return of Bruce Wayne. So you can read whole Batman by Grant Morrison vol 2 omnibus :)

I have the Final Crisis TPB. Should I get the omnibus?

What is the paul dini omni going to collect that you showed in the video and where would it fit in here?

Hey Omar, Have any idea where the Batman: Three Jokers would fit in the timeline if it does?

Would it make sense if I read Batman by Grant Morrison Omnibus 1-3 without anything in between?

wow those streets of gotham go for a lot of money

i’m confused can you show the trade paper backs we need for the whole run of grant morrison and whatever ties in

Sicc video😊

Cowabunga minties 🤙

Okay… can someone help me out? I’ve just started the 2nd volume of Grant Morrisons run and super confused why Dick Grayson is Batman. Is this because of his death in final crisis?

I really want a Batman by Paul Dini Omnibus, but not THAT Batman by Paul Dini Omnibus

Grant Morrison was awesome on batman and it made other titles better like detective comics cause dick as batman and then we also got Scott synder Frist batman and it was great. I really like dick as batman And the black globe story so good. I think grant did great considering he had to change his plans cause he had a idea for the new god's.

New to comics & maybe I missed something in the video but can someone tell me why he keeps talking about keeping his hard covers? Why wouldn’t you keep them

I miss the pre New 52 days, everything seemed simpler.

Shouldn't you read Streets of Gotham Leviathan, Life after Death, The Return of Bruce Wayne and Bruce Wayne the Road Home before you read Batman & Robin Must Die? And read The House of Hush after you have read Batman & Robin Must Die? (Seens Bruce is back in House of Hush)

Can you read batman and not go back to the like 60s? I'm interested only in the newer stuff

❤️

Hey Omar Does it require to read detective comics run with the batman run ??! And I have many &many doubt s to ask

Ok i absolutely adore your videos but i d find the constant spoiler warnings a bit intrusive.... Do you think it might be easier to just have a spoiler warning at the beginning of the video with a list of all the comics you might spoil instead ? Just a lil bit of constructive criticism is all.
