The 1980s were a period of unprecedented achievement and transition for DC Comics, one that introduced some of DC's most acclaimed and bestselling titles, including Watchmen and The Dark Knight Returns. For the first time, DC offers a retrospective of this monumental decade in one collected edition, featuring some of the most innovative and creative comics of the era, highlighting the work of groundbreaking creators such as Grant Morrison, Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, and Frank Miller, in genre-bending works that pushed the boundaries of the medium.
Collects Secret Origins #48, Swamp Thing #40, The Sandman #8, Doom Patrol #25, Warlord #48 and #55, Legion of Super-Heroes #298, Nathaniel Dusk #1, Infinity Inc. #14, The New Teen Titans #16, The Best of DC: Blue Ribbon Digest #58, Watchmen #1, Camelot 3000 #1, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns #2, Angel Love #1, and History of the DC Universe #1-2, all selected by former DC President and Publisher Paul Levitz.

I sort of suspected from Bendis's comments speculating that they might pick up after Future State rather than go back to a continuation of vol. 8 that there would be a delay. I wonder if we'll actually get a vol. 9 in a few months?

Usually there's an announcement of cancellation, and his enthusiasm sort of indicated the book's not over. I'm guessing he's just busy with Justice League.

They're bringing the TPB out fairly quickly for DC.

Regarding the DC Through the 80s, I'm surprised at the choice of LSH #298, it wasn't a particularly special issue - unless they chose it for the Amethyst preview.

For 50 quid, I'd want DC to print me my own random selection of '80s comics. Ambush Bug's continuity issue would be in there for a start.

The comic says 50p, but it's actually 60p.

Tee hee
