Kudos for pointing out the wavy paper. The thinner the paper stock the more susceptible to heat, humidity and cold it is. I would recommend stacking the book under heavy weight at room temperature for a month to flatten out those pages. Dark Horse are the only publisher I find that consistently uses thicker paper which entirely eliminates this problem with their books which are also the lowest priced omnis/library editions too. If they can do it, why can't you Marvel and DC?

@rickgear2579 2 жыл бұрын

DC does use thick paper. Please show me a DC omni with crappy paper. They get flack for the heavy use of glue in their omnis, but their paper quality is never the issue

Hey Omar, They look great but I'm content with my 6 volumes of Paperback Omnibuses. I need to start reading this. I can see the difference between the comic & the show. Yes it's gratuitous, maybe for the sake of it but that's part of the humour. I need to get cracking on it. Cheers mate.

@NMan40 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I kept the 6 tpbs as well. I might have bought these HC Omnis maybe a few years down the line, but they came out too soon after the 6 tpbs, as far as I’m concerned. I think they should have waited a bit longer, but they probably wanted to capitalize on the show. Personally, I always liked those Definitive Editions, but they were way expensive even back 10+ years ago. I don’t think they had a large print run.

So this is actually not sewn binding. In fact, the shot you see of the binding actually shows you that it’s glued binding. Yes, it does have an eye, which is good… but it’s not sewn. You can see the “folds” of the signatures on the top of the book that is consistent with sewn binding, but if you look at the bottom as seen in this video, it looks like jagged triangles and not folds. Basically the gluing process still has folded signatures but they get scored (cut up a bunch) at the fold so that glue can bind it all together. Hope that helps!

With the exception of Wee Hughie, the TV version of The Boys team resembles the comic, as do the show's Homelander and Starlight for the Supes. But the show goes in its own direction with the story and characters. The premise is similar but the show diverges from the comic almost immediately.

Thanks. That helps because I have been considering purchasing, but I was less likely to do so if the show was identical to the comics.

Dynamite isn’t exactly Marvel or DC so they don’t have the resources to make them like they do. This seems serviceable for a company the size of Dynamite that doesn’t do very many OHC and they seem pretty affordable so that helps.
