DC
4.8
(45)
"The best from DC in my opinion is Gotham Central."
"I love the grant Morrison Batman omnibuses!"
"Infinite crises, the flash by geoff johns trilogy these are all amazing."
"Gotham Central, mostly everything by Daredevil."
"I love Superman by Peter J. Tomasi and Patrick Gleason and their Batman and Robin both are top tier for me."
"The best omni I've read is **Gotham Central**."
"These runs are often suggested as some of the very best on this sub"
"Waid built the Flash mythos that every writer after built off of."
"JLA by Morrison. This is Wally stepping up to the Justice League."
"Waid is the best starting point (and the best run) for Wally."

"2nd vote for Hawkeye by Fraction/Aja"
"Frank Miller's Daredevil Omnibus tells a complete story."
"Walt Simonson's Thor is really all the Thor you need."
"Hawkeye by Fraction/Aja"
"Daredevil by Miller"
"Thor by Simonson"
"Frank Millers Daredevil. It is a straight classic and timeless."
"Same could be said for John Byrnes Fantastic Four volumes 1 and 2."
"Walt Simonson's Thor. All one volume, one of if not the best Thor story."
"Safest bet for universal praise is anything with Mark Waid's name on it, especially his FF and Daredevil."

Batman

"For Batman, 100% the Loeb/Sale omnibus. Probably the most classic Batman tales aside from Frank Millers Year One."
"For Batman, go Batman by Scott Snyder & Greg Capullo, best modern Batman run easily and it's only one omni so not much of an investment."
"Batman by Loeb and Sale. It contains a handful of pretty self contained Batman (and 1 Catwoman) story that are all extremely approachable because they are fundamental Batman."
"Batman by Loeb and Sale"
"Batman by Loeb and Sale was my first Omni and got me hooked."
"Batman by Loeb and Sale"
"Batman by Loeb & Sale."
"For Batman, I would say Batman by Snyder & Capullo, it is two omnis so a little of an investment into the story but not too bad."
"Batman has so many lengthy story arcs that they pressed into trade paperback graphic novel format."
"Worst, and this is coming from a big Batman fan."

"Normally I’d recommend the Invincible compendium from Amazon, but it’s currently out of stock."
"Invincible by Robert Kirkman, you won't be sorry"
"All of the HC collections of Image comics are very high quality and worth the ~$20 on Amazon. Spawn, The Walking Dead, Invincible, all good stuff."

"If you’re interested in the Star Wars, I’d recommend trying either Empire or New Republic omnis."
