This blog says it's in the Rogue War section, but again, not specific:

Would it have killed them to put the numbers on the covers? Jerks.

So it said that the problem is in the Rogue War section. I happen to have that trade, so when I get a chance I'll go page by page.

They go through lengths to put who drew the cover, but no numbers:

The book is sewn and lays flat at around page 100 and after. Before that it snaps shut.

I compared the omnibus to the Rogue War trade and I found that pages 640 and 643 are switched. That's it.

This is page 642 and 643 of the omnibus.

The top book is the trade and the bottom is the omnibus in both pictures.

This is page 640 and 641 of the omnibus.

I can't tell, but does it affect the story? It looks like the subplot page was just pushed up a page. If that's the case it's something that wouldn't bother me much.

Ferjo, I'm confused.

If pages 640 and 643 are swapped, does that mean the 'congratulations, it's a boy AND A girl' shown is actually shown -before- the 'what the hell just happened?... she's nine months pregnant!'?

I edited the captions of my pictures to reflect page numbers. I hope that makes it more clear.

Right, basically the two pictures are reversed. The proper order should be the pages as seen in the original trades, but second picture first.

It's the VUMMMM page and the signing page that got switched.

I thought about switching the pictures around.

I got my book online and that sounds like a hassle.

I had no real trouble replacing my defective Absolute Kingdom Come HC with my online retailer (well, other than the hassle of needing it replaced in the first place, and having to mail the indicia page to them, and then wait a few months for the corrected edition). But it's worth the effort, considering the final product. Just to be safe, I'd suggest having a copy or documentation of mailing the indicia page to ensure you get your replacement book.

It's too bad this happened again, though. Considering the cost of having to reprint these expensive books, there have to be some unhappy people at DC right now. This expense could be the equivalent of several other collected editions' print runs.

And suddenly the delay in a bunch of solicitations make sense, does it?

I think where this book is concerned, I shall be ordering it from an online retailer to be safe.
