JLA by Grant Morrison Omnibus

Justice League: The New 52 / Geoff Johns, collected complete as a pack of 2 oversized omnibus volumes and cheaper than buying them one by one. Justice League: The New 52 Omnibus Vol. 1 launches DC's 2011 League from first contact and public suspicion. Geoff Johns and Jim Lee rebuild Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman and Cyborg into a team under world-ending pressure. Justice League: The New 52 Omnibus Vol. 2 continues Geoff Johns' League through larger DC event machinery, including Forever Evil and Darkseid War. The team faces the Crime Syndicate, Lex Luthor's rise and the cosmic pressure of the New Gods.

Justice League relaunched in 2011 as the flagship of DC's New 52, with Geoff Johns and Jim Lee starting the entire universe from scratch. The first arc is the League's origin retold for a generation that had only seen the films, and the Darkseid invasion gives them a reason to stay together. Johns then spends years on the Trinity War and the Crime Syndicate, and this volume is the run in full rather than the opening six issues everyone owns.

The second New 52 Justice League omnibus covers the back half of Geoff Johns' run, when the team's internal politics became the plot. Trinity War is the crossover where three Justice League teams fight each other over a murder none of them committed, and it is the best structured event DC published in the New 52. Johns also finally writes the Superman and Wonder Woman relationship as a decision with consequences rather than a marketing beat.

Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV wrote Justice League as cosmology: the Source Wall breaks and the forces that built the universe start taking sides. The premise is that the Justice League have been fighting the wrong war: the Legion of Doom is trying to unmake reality's rules rather than rob a bank. The Batman Who Laughs is included here for good reason, it is the best thing to come out of the era and it reads as the run's real antagonist.

The Justice League’s satellite era sends DC’s heroes across Earth, space and parallel worlds. This second Bronze Age omnibus follows the team through Justice League of America #114–146, with writers including Len Wein, Gerry Conway and Martin Pasko and artwork by Dick Dillin and his collaborators.

Injustice: Gods Among Us, collected complete as a pack of 2 oversized omnibus volumes and cheaper than buying them one by one. Injustice 2 keeps asking what happens after a world has already been broken by its heroes. Tom Taylor returns to a DC universe where trust is scarce, power has consequences and every alliance carries the memory of Superman’s regime. The result is not just a fighting-game tie-in; it is a sharp alternate-DC political thriller about rebuilding after tyranny. Injustice: Gods Among Us Omnibus Volume 1 collects the opening three-year block of the Injustice saga in one huge hardcover, giving DC readers a brutal alternate-universe shelf built around Superman's fall, Batman's resistance and a world under authoritarian pressure.

Justice League by Snyder & Tynion, collected as a pack of 2 oversized omnibus volumes and cheaper than buying them one by one. Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV wrote Justice League as cosmology: the Source Wall breaks and the forces that built the universe start taking sides. The premise is that the Justice League have been fighting the wrong war: the Legion of Doom is trying to unmake reality's rules rather than rob a bank. The Batman Who Laughs is included here for good reason, it is the best thing to come out of the era and it reads as the run's real antagonist. The second Snyder and Tynion omnibus takes the Justice League run to its conclusion, through the Year of the Villain and the rise of the Batman Who Laughs. The Batman Who Laughs stops being a crossover villain here and becomes the character DC built a whole line around: a Bruce Wayne infected by the Joker who is smarter than either. Hell Arisen is where he wins, briefly and completely, and it leads directly into Dark Nights: Death Metal.

The Darkseid War is the conclusion of Geoff Johns' years-long Justice League story, in which Darkseid and the Anti-Monitor go to war and Earth is the battlefield. The central idea is the best thing in Johns' run: each member is elevated to a New God, Batman takes the Mobius Chair and learns everything, Superman becomes a darker version of himself, the Flash is bonded to the Black Racer. Batman using omniscience to answer who killed his parents is the scene everyone remembers.

PRH presents this as Grant Morrison's bold New 52 reimagining of Superman. The run starts from a more raw, early-career Man of Steel and builds toward stranger, larger threats without losing the idea of Superman as a social and moral force. This is the compact shelf for Morrison's New 52 Superman: part origin energy, part cosmic experiment, part statement about what Superman means when the myth is rebuilt from the street upward.

Grant Morrison and Mark Millar wrote The Flash together in the late nineties, immediately after Mark Waid, with Wally West already established as the fastest man alive. The Human Race is the standout: an alien gambler challenges the Flash to a race across the universe with Earth as the stake, and Morrison writes it as pure high concept. The Black Flash, death itself, running to catch up, is the other lasting idea, and DC has used it ever since.

Batman by Grant Morrison, collected complete as a pack of 3 oversized omnibus volumes and cheaper than buying them one by one. Batman by Grant Morrison Omnibus Vol. 1 opens Morrison's Batman saga with Batman & Son, The Black Glove and Batman R.I.P. It introduces Damian Wayne, pushes Bruce Wayne through psychological pressure and starts the larger mystery that reshapes the Dark Knight across three omnibus volumes. Batman by Grant Morrison Omnibus Vol. 2 follows the saga after Batman R.I.P., with Dick Grayson and Damian Wayne operating as Batman and Robin while Bruce Wayne fights his way back through time. It collects the middle movement of Morrison's run, where legacy and identity become the main engine of the story. Batman by Grant Morrison Omnibus Vol. 3 closes Morrison's Batman project with Batman Incorporated. Bruce Wayne turns Batman into a global network, drawing allies around the world into the fight against Leviathan and pushing the symbol far beyond Gotham.

Grant Morrison took over X-Men in 2001 and rebuilt it as science fiction about a species: the school opened to hundreds of students, mutants became a culture with fashion and drugs, and the costumes went black. Morrison's premise is that mutants are winning demographically and nobody has noticed, which reframes the whole franchise. Genosha's destruction in the first issue kills sixteen million people and the book never lets you forget it. Frank Quitely, Igor Kordey and Chris Bachalo draw it, and every X-Men run since has been either extending this or reacting against it.

Grant Morrison spent seven years on Batman treating every story ever published as canon, including the ones nobody wanted to remember, and then built a single argument out of all of it. Morrison's premise is that a man who has survived everything published since 1939 would have to be extraordinary, and Batman R.I.P. is the stress test. Damian arrives here as an insufferable ten-year-old assassin and leaves as one of DC's most valuable characters. Everything in the Bat-books for the next decade starts in this volume.

The middle third of Morrison's run is the part where Bruce Wayne is not in it: presumed dead, travelling backwards through history while Dick Grayson wears the cowl. Dick and Damian invert the classic dynamic, a light Batman and a violent Robin, and it is the most purely enjoyable stretch of the run. Frank Quitely draws the opening. Putting the two series in reading order is the reason to own this: published separately, the two halves kept explaining each other out of sequence.

This omnibus gathers the twenty-first century Phoenix stories: every attempt Marvel has made to bring Jean Grey back, and the event that used the Force as a weapon against the Avengers. Grant Morrison's Here Comes Tomorrow, Avengers vs. X-Men and Phoenix Resurrection in one volume is a genuinely useful pairing: the first imagines a future without her, the second turns five X-Men into gods, and the third finally brings the original Jean back after fourteen years. It is the complete modern argument about the character.

The final third of Morrison's Batman is Batman Incorporated: Bruce Wayne going public as the franchise's financier and recruiting a Batman for every country. The idea, that Batman's real superpower is money and organisation, is the most modern thing anyone has done with the character. It also ends with Damian's death, which Morrison had been building toward since the first volume and which DC did not undo for years. This is the payoff of the whole seven-year argument.
