It’s coming this Christmas season… In December 2022, DC released the long-awaited Batman: The Silver Age Omnibus Vol. 1. And then… nothing. But now, the publisher is finally planning the follow-up: Batman: The Silver Age Omnibus Vol. 2 is scheduled for December 2026. Dig the official description from Penguin Random House, which handles DC in the book market: BATMAN: THE SILVER AGE OMNIBUS VOL. 2 Before the modern multiverse, Batman’s world exploded into giants, aliens, and alternate destinies. Guided by award-winning co-creator Bill Finger and iconic artist Sheldon Moldoff, this era fuses classic heroism with wild Silver Age concepts, capturing the moment the Caped Crusader embraced pure imagination. When imagination meets atomic-age anxiety, Batman goes everywhere—from haunted Bat-Caves to lost seas, distant planets, and even alternate histories where his parents never died. Award-winning Batman co-creator Bill Finger and powerhouse Silver Age art teams blend bold concepts, clean adventure, and quiet emotional beats into some of the most charmingly audacious stories in the character’s history. Shape-shifting aliens, monstrous experiments, strange dimensions, and bizarre “imaginary” scenarios push the Dynamic Duo into constant reinvention. Along the way, readers will encounter the first appearances of Mr. Zero (the prototype for Mr. Freeze), Bat-Mite, and Calendar Man; and a fresh retelling of Batman’s first case.

That’s assuming there will be a third one. — And if there is, here’s hoping that it doesn’t take another four years to get it. — There’s been a ton of DC book news this week.

Skartaris beckons once again… The DC book news keeps coming, and this time it’s all about Mike Grell’s Warlord, which is getting a second omnibus volume this fall. Dig the description from Penguin Random House, which handles DC in the book market: THE WARLORD BY MIKE GRELL OMNIBUS VOL. 2 The world of Skartaris expands to its most cinematic heights as Mike Grell’s legendary saga enters its boldest era. The Warlord by Mike Grell Omnibus Vol. 2 unleashes fantasy storytelling that blends mythic adventure, political intrigue, and relentless danger beneath the eternal sun. Travis Morgan, warrior and wanderer, confronts sorcery, treachery, and the ghosts of his past as he fights to reconnect with Tara, protect Shamballah, and reclaim his family across shifting realms. From colossal battles to strange new lands—alternate worlds, lost civilizations, and visions of the future—Grell evolves the Warlord into an operatic odyssey of destiny and rebellion. Following 2025’s in-demand The Warlord by Mike Grell Omnibus Vol. 1, this volume collects the long out-of-print Warlord #37–71; Warlord Annual #1; DC Sampler #2; and DC Special Blue Ribbon Digest #10. $100.00 US Hardcover/720 Pages On Sale November 3, 2026 — Buncha thoughts: — Travis Morgan is making his triumphant return in the upcoming Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #51. It reminds me how much fans wanted a Batman/Warlord team-up in The Brave and the Bold. Never happened though. — I always feel compelled to point out that Warlord was once immensely popular. Funny how some things don’t stick over the long haul. — There’s been a ton of DC book news this week. Links below! — MORE — Major Wave of DC FINEST Titles Added to 2026 Schedule.
