THE SPECTRE BY JOHN OSTRANDER AND TOM MANDRAKE OMNIBUS VOL. 2

As their landmark Spectre saga enters its second arc, writer John Ostrander (Suicide Squad) and artist Tom Mandrake (Martian Manhunter) escalate their gothic, metaphysical masterwork into a searing confrontation with faith, identity, and cosmic justice.

From the hellish temptations of Underworld Unleashed to the apocalyptic sweep of Final Night, the Spectre’s journey fractures across realms both physical and spiritual—ghost ships, cursed talismans, phantom cowboys, collapsing heavens, and the impossible task of judging a world on the brink.

Here Jim Corrigan’s turbulent partnership with the Spectre-force spirals toward revelation, culminating in the acclaimed arcs “The Haunting of America,” “The Haunting of Jim Corrigan,” and “The Search for God.” As America’s darkest myths rise, as the dead demand vengeance, and as gods fall silent, the Spectre must face his greatest reckoning: can divine wrath find redemption? And can Jim Corrigan finally find peace?

This definitive volume presents the second half of Ostrander and Mandrake’s seminal run—one of DC’s most ambitious supernatural epics—in its complete, unbroken form. Collects Who’s Who #8; The Spectre #32–62; Showcase ’95 #8; The Spectre Annual #1; Who’s Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe #21; and Who’s Who Update 1987 #5.

ROBIN: TIM DRAKE COMPENDIUM TWO

Chuck Dixon (Detective Comics) and a powerhouse roster of artists chart Tim Drake’s evolution in a period defined by intense action and shifting alliances. This is the era where Tim Drake becomes not just Batman’s partner—but a hero entirely his own.

  1. First we had the Golden Age. Then the Silver Age. Then the Bronze Age. There’s disagreement on what to call the 1986 to 2000 age (the Dark Age or the Iron Age). Either way, I would argue that 2000 to the present should be called the Archival Age for all of the effort that publishers (Marvel, DC, indies) have been putting into releasing high-quality collected editions of older material. I think that when people look back on this period decades from now, that will be this era’s lasting legacy.

  2. The cover to the JLA omni features the cover to issue 210 but the solicitation shows 183-206?

  4. A new silver age Superman omnibus is wonderful news! My only quibble is that it stops before Superman Red And Superman Blue.

  5. At last, some previously uncollected JLA! Hopefully that Fury of Firestorm issue finally leads to some Firestorm collections!
