True there. And I guess I can stand giving up three pages to the Trinity in order to get the rest of the awesome characters in Wednesday Comics.

My favorite is Kamandi and Flash.
He's so transparent.

Discussion on this kind of died off, which is weird because I think we were basically in agreement that it is awesome.
The hardcover edition came out a few weeks ago and I picked it up and it's really nice. The quality of the print seems to be better than I remember the "newspaper" ones to be. The book is huge - I believe it is the same size as the originals - so it's awkward to read but it's still great.
Also, it's nice because each series is collected chronologically in its entirety so you get each story as a whole without it being broken up.
I'll see if I can remember to post pictures of it.

The HC.
Yeah. It's a lot easier to read and keep.
On a whim, for basically no reason, I decided to re-read this. I read scans so that took the experience factor completely out of it, but the real purpose was just to reacquaint myself with the stories because I had forgotten most of them. Here's how I rate them:
Batman: 6/10. Nothing special but not a bad story. Art is OK.
Kamandi: 10/10. Loved the narrative style and Ryan Sook's art is really great.
Superman: 3/10. Decent art but the story did nothing for me.
Deadman: 10/10. Probably my favorite art. The colors are beautiful and the story was good and easy to follow.
Supergirl: 9/10. Absolutely adorable and a good, fun read. Loved the ending. Art is great.
Green Lantern: 7/10. Enjoyed the art, but the story was only above-average.
Metamorpho: 7/10. Hard to grade this one - the story is uneven in its quality. This seemed to get a lot of praise in this thread but it didn't do much for me. But Allred's art is spectacular.
Teen Titans: 0/10. Couldn't force myself to care about whatever was going on with the story and the art was bland.
Strange Adventures: 5/10. I loved the art style but the story did nothing for me.
Hawkman: 6/10. The art didn't really do much for me and the story was only pretty good toward the end.
Metal Men: 0/10. Dumb story, and I hated the way the Metal Men's faces looked.
Wonder Woman: 7/10. I absolutely LOVED the art and the layout, but it was so hard to read and follow. The story seemed too complex for this format. Maybe just because I'm dumb? Dunno. I really wanted to like it but it was too hard to follow.
Sgt. Rock: 5/10. Completely average in every way.
The Flash: 7/10. I liked how Flash's and Iris's stories were split into different strips. I don't care for Flash science though because it makes no sense, and this story was married to it.
Demon Cat & Catwoman: 0/10. Terrible. The story was crap and the art was bad. What is the point if this weird team-up?
Batman: 6/10. Nothing special but not a bad story. Art is OK.
Kamandi: 10/10. Loved the narrative style and Ryan Sook's art is really great.

I never read this the first time around but I picked up the single issues off ebay and maybe I will read one a week like it should have been.
