It's one of those books from the nineties that was originally a mini series by Neil Gaiman, and then other authors picked it up and put their own spin on it, you know? And we saw that with Lucifer as well. but yeah, we've been having a lot of rainstorms here in the bay area lately, and it's kind of the perfect weather to read an oversized book, featuring the adventures of Tim hunter, who is this British teenager who's due to become the most powerful magician in the current age of man and.It's a really good read still. And they also weirdly had it for over half off. And I wound up getting it for over half off from Target during this big deal they had on books where it was like, buy two, get one free. And so DC stopped putting them out, but DC put out an omnibus late last year, and then they're going to release another one in a couple of months.Īnd it's going to contain the rest of the series as well as all of the different tie in books. And I was disappointed at how it felt like the series ended halfway through the story.Īnd then I learned way later that DC only collected the first 50 of like 75 total issues into trades, which is why the series felt like it ended the way it did, I guess. So this was actually really exciting for me because I read all the trades when I was in high school and college. Mike: I recently learned that the Books of Magic, which is a bit of a spin-off to the Sandman and a bit of sequel and a bit of something totally original, is getting the omnibus treatment.
