Big Books
Dikke boeken, groot formaat, honderden pagina's. Big Books zijn de oversized collected editions waar je flink wat leesvoer aan hebt. Van omnibussen die een complete run bundelen tot deluxe editions die artwork laten zien zoals het bedoeld is.
Wat Valt Hieronder?
Omnibussen bundelen grote stukken van een serie in één boek. Vaak 800 tot 1200 pagina's, hardcover, op groter formaat dan reguliere trades. Marvel en DC brengen hun belangrijkste runs als omnibus uit. Eén boek in plaats van vijf of zes losse trades.
Absolute Editions zijn het premium segment. Groter dan omnibussen, met slipcase en verbeterde kleuring. DC doet dit met hun beste verhalen: Swamp Thing, Sandman, Batman. Duur, maar het verschil in artwork op dat formaat is direct zichtbaar.
Deluxe Editions zitten er tussenin. Oversized hardcovers die een compleet verhaal of korte run bevatten. Niet zo dik als een omnibus, maar groter en mooier dan een standaard trade. Denk aan Watchmen, V for Vendetta, of The Killing Joke in deluxe formaat.
Library Editions en Compendiums zijn de dikke pillen van indie uitgevers. Dark Horse doet library editions (Hellboy, Harrow County), Image doet compendiums (Walking Dead, Invincible). Allebei pakken ze grote stukken serie in oversized hardcovers of dikke softcovers.
Waarom Oversized?
Comics zijn een visueel medium. Op groter formaat zie je details in het artwork die je op standaard trade-formaat mist. Fijne arceringen, achtergronddetails, kleurwerk. Vooral bij kunstenaars die gedetailleerd werken maakt het verschil.
Daarnaast is het praktisch. Eén omnibus vervangt een hele plank trades. Je hebt alles bij elkaar, in de juiste volgorde, zonder gaten. Zeker bij oudere runs die als losse trades lastig compleet te krijgen zijn, is een omnibus vaak de makkelijkste optie.
Goed Om Te Weten
Big Books zijn zwaar. Een gemiddelde omnibus weegt rond de twee kilo. Lekker op de bank lezen kan, maar verwacht geen boek dat je makkelijk in één hand houdt. Dat hoort erbij.
