I have all thirteen of the Archives. Is there anything in the big Silver Age hardcovers I'm missing out on by not buying them?

Cheers,

Christopher

I'm pretty sure there's nothing in the Omnibuses that's not in the Archives.

In fact, the Archives have more than the Omnis, as there are no Omnis of the Grell era.

In a way it's kind of surprising. There's plenty of Legion material that's not in the Archives that they could have included as a "bonus" to get the hard-core fans to buy the new format.

Well, sort of - larger pages, larger print. The archives appear to be shrunken to 85-90% size.

apart from that, what everyone else says is correct - no actual extra material in the Omnibuses/Omnibi (heh)...
