![]() Rating: - Absolutely necessary for any DC fan.When this story was finally collected by DC for the first time sometime between 98/99' they released a regular sized hardcover edition that cost about the same as this Absolute edition but without the extras. I love this series so much that although I already own that very handsome (and expensive) HC regular size edition, I still bought the Absolute anyway. The story is that cool! If you grew up in the 80s and love DC comics, Crisis is just about the most satisfying, thrilling and amazingly drawn ...

Well worth the money and a great read! Rating: - Start at the BeginingI'm new into the comic books scene. If you're going to start somewhere, the Absolute Crisis is a great place. This book is a magnum opus of DC. Although face time with character is limited due to the vast nature of the crisis, what you get is a very quick but essential overview of the entire cast. This book is the complete re-vamp of the DC universe, so its a perfect place to start reading from. The books before the crisis are great, too, but there's only so much time in the day. Rating: - DC Takes A Trip To The Dark Side!What can I say about the almighty Crisis? It is the daddy of comics catastrophe.This is where all the ages of DC Comics clash.Timelines in the DC Universe have been scrambled up by an entity called "The Monitor". We see past heroes and villains that should not exist in 1986.For example Alan Scott was the orignal Green Lantern in the 1940's but he shows up to meet Hal Jordan.Wally West was the Flash in 1960 and he runs into Bart Allen,the 1980's version of The Flash.The Monitor duplicates Earth ...

All the twist and turns and confusing crap you could want, that may not make sense but still is so freaking cool. Most of all the lists I seen of, "must have comic books", this is one of them! Now i know why it is too, it was a great read, and a great start to getting started with my collection of comic books. There's a reason why DC/Marvel are ...
