Absolute Power Omnibus

A strike at the heart of the DC Universe forces heroes and villains to reckon with a world where power itself is weaponized. Mark Waid (Kingdom Come) and Dan Mora (Superman) deliver a monumental event built on scale, spectacle, and the resilience of hope. This omnibus chronicles the fall, fracture, and fierce return of heroism when the stakes are absolute.

The final domino in an epic scheme comes tumbling down, and the DC Universe will never be the same.

Amanda Waller, founder of the Suicide Squad, is picking off superhero dynasties one at a time, starting with Superman. But resistance is never futile…and Batman is out for vengeance. From the Fortress of Solitude to Gamorra, it’s a shocking blitzkrieg across the universe as the destinies of our heroes and the future of the DC Universe are forever altered.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
