About this omnibus

Hitman by Garth Ennis and John McCrea, collected as a pack of 2 oversized omnibus volumes and cheaper than buying them one by one. Hitman by Garth Ennis and John McCrea Omnibus Vol. 1 collects one of DC's great hidden-gem runs. Tommy Monaghan is a Gulf War veteran turned contract killer in the Cauldron, a rough Irish corner of Gotham; a alien bite leaves him with X-ray vision and telepathy, and he sets himself up as the hitman who specializes in killing super-people. Ennis and McCrea, years before their creator-owned fame, blend savage dark comedy with genuine pathos and one of comics' great supporting casts, the regulars of Noonan's bar. Brutal, funny and unexpectedly moving. Hitman by Garth Ennis and John McCrea Omnibus Vol. 2 collects the second half of the run, where the jokes stop being free. Tommy Monaghan is a contract killer in Gotham with minor psychic powers and a bar full of friends, and Ennis spends this volume methodically taking them away. It contains 'Of Thee I Sing', widely considered one of the finest Superman stories ever written.

About the writer

More from Garth Ennis

Garth Ennis omnibus editions push comics into war stories, black comedy, blasphemy and brutal street-level consequence.

Hellblazer by Garth Ennis Omnibus

Hellblazer by Garth Ennis Omnibus

Garth Ennis wrote Hellblazer for three years in the early nineties and produced the run most people mean when they talk about John Constantine. Dangerous Habits is the story where Constantine cons three lords of Hell into saving his life because none of them will let the others have his soul, and it is the single best trick the character has ever pulled. Ennis also writes his friendships better than anyone: the pub scenes are the reason the horror lands.

Punisher by Garth Ennis Omnibus

Punisher by Garth Ennis Omnibus

Garth Ennis wrote the Punisher across two very different series: a black comedy for Marvel Knights and then a crime book with no jokes at all. The Marvel Knights run is Ennis at his funniest — Daredevil, Wolverine and Spider-Man all humiliated in sequence — and the later series is where he drops the comedy entirely. Punisher Kills the Marvel Universe is the notorious one, and it is far bleaker than its reputation suggests.

Punisher Max by Garth Ennis Omnibus Vol. 1

Punisher Max by Garth Ennis Omnibus Vol. 1

Garth Ennis redefined the Punisher in 2004 by moving Frank Castle entirely outside the Marvel Universe. Under the MAX imprint, the series strips away superheroes and delivers raw, unflinching crime fiction. This first omnibus collects the opening chapters of what many consider the major Punisher run — brutal, literary, and uncompromising.

Description

Background. Tommy Monaghan is a hitman working out of the Cauldron, an Irish working-class neighbourhood of Gotham. During the Bloodlines event an alien parasite bites him and, instead of killing him, triggers his metagene, giving him X-ray vision and telepathy. He turns pro with a niche: he kills super-beings, not ordinary people.

What's inside. Vol. 1 collects The Demon Annual #2, where Tommy debuts, Hitman #1-33 and Annual #1, plus the Ennis and McCrea Demon issues. Vol. 2 collects the second half through to the final issue.

Why it's worth it. Of Thee I Sing, in which Tommy tells Superman what he actually means to people, is regularly named among the best Superman stories ever written despite appearing in a book about a contract killer. Ennis and McCrea made the ending inevitable from the first issue, so the run is one long setup for a farewell and it only works whole.

Edition details. 2 volumes, 2280 pages total. Oversized hardcovers. US edition published by DC Comics.
