Good news, I say! Now that fireplace season has arrived, I've been pulling my copy of Absolute Long Halloween off the shelf and reading a few chapters at a time. Would love to have Absolute Dark Victory to keep it company on the bookshelf.

Absolutely a dark victory for all seasons... |

In a recent Word Balloon podcast (see "The Loeb Report Vol 2 Part 2"),
Jeph Loeb says that DC is indeed working on putting together Absolute editions of "Batman: Dark Victory" and "Superman For All Seasons." He
doesn't know what the timetable for solicitation/release will be, just that they are in the works.

great! for all seasons is one of my favorite stories, ever. and more tim sale goodness is never a bad thing.

Both would be welcome additions to my library!
And speaking of Absolutes, has there ever been any mention of V FOR VENDETTA getting the deluxe treatment? It would seem a no-brainer to me, but then what do I know? |

it's a shame to waste coveted Absolute slots on subpar talent like Jeph Loeb

I wonder how well Superman For All Seasons will look at a larger size -- if I remember correctly, the painted color bluelines were all done at
publication size, and might not hold up well when enlarged.

OH YES! I love Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale, serarately and together. (Together is better). Absolute is better than my floppy trades too. I'm really glad
they're absoluting Dark Victory especially, I think it should've been paired in the Long Halloween Absolute IMO.
but great news! exuberance! |

Dark Victory and All seasons are very good stories.

I just got my copy of Absolute Superman: For Tomorrow and can't wait to re-read this arc again. Actually, I know the story is
pretty bad by Brian Azzarello since I read the original issues back in 2004-2005, but its Jim Lee's art that will be great to see in Absolute size...!
To know that Superman For All Seasons will get the Absolute treatment is good to see and the same for Batman: Dark Victory as well, whenever this happens. V for Vendetta 's Absolute just came out.

I'd be most interested in Superman For All Seasons if two extra stories were included, the Clark Kent goes to prom story and the Supergirl story, both from
the Solo series. patrick
