Whoever is in charge of DC's collected editions department must be an omnibus fan.

There are a number of Wonder Woman movies but not one movie with Rocket Raccoon as a main character and Guardians of The Galaxy Vol 3 where he actually did play somewhat of a major role to the movie. Note as well I found it on Reddit as a 10-year-old post so Guardians of The Galaxy Vol 3 wasn't out yet and basically yeah the first movie was still new so yeah 2014 is when this meme was made. Is the joke meant to point fun at the fact that people criticize Wonder Woman movies cause the most recent one at this time was in 2011? I honestly just don't get what this joke is trying to convey.

rather than something separated from the main line [...] this will be something published in conjunction with the main line, part of a larger initiative that aims to spotlight DC's entire lineup. But there will not be a reboot or even a relaunch of the main line, that will remain intact and continuity (along with many creative teams) will continue on. 

So this is essentially a long-term Elseworlds or Earth-Whatever within the same shared universe?

"Superman: The Triangle Era Omnibus Vol. 1" in September 2024

collects Superman #49-64; Adventures of Superman #472-486; Action Comics #659-673; Superman: The Man of Steel #1-8.

"Deathstroke: The Terminator by Marv Wolfman Omnibus Vol. 1" in December 2024, which is pretty much what the trade paperbacks collected a few years ago, if I'm not mistaken

Collects Deathstroke (1991 series) #1-26; Deathstroke Annual #1-2; The New Titans #70; Superman #68; and stories from Showcase '93 #6-11.

Holy moly. What's going on in DC's Collected Editions department? They finally seem to be putting some serious resources into it. Just a few days ago the solicitations showed that hardcovers and softcovers of current runs will be released simultaneously, for example Ram V’s Detective Comics. And they also release the interjacent volumes too, so that the releases can sync up quickly and no softcovers are skipped. Which is a game changer for paperback readers.

And now all those omnibus editions? Awesome! (there's also Aquaman by Peter David, Secret Six by Gail Simone, Flash by William Messner-Loebs and a bunch more in the next few months)

That's a big change. For a few years now the softcovers trailed the hardcovers by 1 year. And sometimes they even got cancelled entirely on short notice.

Now it seems that DC will release a bunch of books simultaneously as hardcover and softcover, for example Ram V's Detective Comics. And they also release the interjacent volumes too, so that the releases can sync up quickly and no softcovers are skipped.

As a softcover reader this is the best news since Rebirth (when almost everything was released as softcover).

For reference, the best thing I have read in a long time was DC vs. Vampires. On the other hand, I have not managed to finish the slog that is Dark Crisis.
