Going heavy 90s. Please join me. We're the ones who've been shafted. And in my opinion, there's no point voting for 90s Superman considering Exile & Triangle Era Vol. 1 are releasing within 3 months of each other. I don't have to fight for books that are pretty much guaranteed to come out. This is a poll for books we HAVE to fight for them to take it seriously.

My picks:

1. Batman The Animated Series: Gotham Adventures Vol. 1 (of 2) (1998 - 2000)
2. Batman: The Bronze Age Omnibus Vol. 1 (1970 & on)
3. Jonah Hex, The Classic Omnibus Vol. 1 (1970 & on)
4. Jonah Hex by Palmiotti & Gray Vol. 1 (of 2) (2006 - 2009)
5. Batman: Knightfall Aftermath (1994 - 1996)
6. DC Events: The Elseworlds Annuals (1994)
7. Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight, Vol. 1 (1989 & on)
8. Spectre by John Ostrander Vol. 1 (of 2) (1992 - 1995)
9. Superman: Exile Aftermath AKA Eradication AKA Pre-Triangle Era Omnibus (1989 - 1990) [between Exile & Triangle Era Vol. 1]
10. Starman by James Robinson Vol. 1 (of 2) (1994 - 1998)

Some of these choices were tough! I put the post-Exile Superman omnibus pretty low, since I think they're bound to do it before long, anway. Starman might seem like a wasted slot since it is currently in print, but I've been wanting proper omnibus collections of it for ages! It is quite possibly the greatest superhero run ever, and it deserves that treatment!

I think I might have voted for the Ditko Shade the Changing Man by mistake because I couldn’t see the end of the title in the drop down menu 😕

This poll was an improvement and I applaud the work that went into assembling all these titles. If nothing else, it brought home to me how many DC purchases I would be making if only they would print the stuff. More than I had thought. I could have placed at least 40 votes overall.

Still, I would not call this a "classic" poll, and that is still needed. One focusing on GA-Bronze at the latest. The area where fans are going to be bowing out of this world before they get to buy and read the stuff.

Of course, I went mostly classic in my choices, avoiding some obvious other ones that I don't think DC will need my help in voting to get into print (SA Superman v2, BA Batman v1). Reviewing, I made one glaring error and voted for the wrong age of Jimmy Olsen (bronze instead of SA). I suppose there is no way to change that.

My choices:

Supergirl, The Bronze Age Omnibus Vol. 1 (1972 - 1984)
Strange Adventures, The Silver Age Omnibus Vol. 1 (1955 & on)
Martian Manhunter, The Silver Age Omnibus Vol. 1 (1955 & on)
Rose & Thorn (1947 & on)
Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen, Silver Age Vol. 1 (1954 & on) -- my original intended vote
Batman & Superman - World’s Finest, The Silver Age Omnibus Vol. 3 (1967 - 1970)
Superboy, The Silver Age Omnibus, Vol. 1 (1958 & on)
Superman: The Bronze Age Omnibus Vol 1 (1970 & on)
Weird War Tales, The Bronze Age Omnibus Vol. 1 (1971 & on)
Wonder Woman: The Bronze Age Vol. 1 (1973 & on) [follows Diana Prince omnibus; includes "12 Labors"]

What they left out:
 
Inferior 5
Angel & Ape
Time Warp
Mystery In Space
Imaginary Tales,

1. Batman Superman World's Finest Silver Age vol 3
2. Batman Superman World's Finest Bronze Age vol 1
3. Flash by William Messner-Loebs vol 2
4. Superman Exile Aftermath
5. Hawkman the Golden Age vol 1
6. Superman Triangle Era vol 2
7. Supergirl the Bronze Age vol 1
8. Doctor Fate by Dematteis and Messner-Loebs
9. L.E.G.I.O.N. 89 vol 1
10. Legion of Superheroes Bronze Age vol 1

I was tempted to put BA Supergirl a little higher, but was too lazy to move 3-6 all down one. I know some of these might seem like a given, but they are what I want the most so.

I didn't care about the reprint omni poll, but this one I needed another 10 votes.

I was adding things as I went, and filled up my votes before I made it past "A"... so I went back and was ruthless, but even so. Yes. 40, 50 easy.

This was HARD! I went with :

 LEGION
 All Star Squadron 
JLA Bronze 4
 Superman Team Up DC Presents
 Superman Bronze Age
 Uncle Sam and Freedom Fighters
 Warlord 
 GL Guy Gardner
 Red Lanterns
 New 52 and JLA by Meltzer and McDuffie

Just missing the cut for me was:
 Ambush Bug
 Batman Post Crisis 
 Birds of Prey Dixon
 Blue Beetle Post Crisis
 Blue Devil 
 Captain Carrot 
 Firestorm 80s 
 Green Lantern Emerald Dawn 
 Hawkworld 
 Supergirl Peter David

This was tough, I made a first list of 25 titles and started to choose by priority.

My votes:
1. Starman vol. 1
2. Starman vol. 2 (I got the compendiums, but this series deserves a bigger treatment)
3. Hawkworld by Ostrander (I recently re-read the prestige miniseries and it was as good as I remembered it)
4. Green Arrow: Connor Hawke (pure 90's classic fun)
5. L.E.G.I.O.N. and R.E.B.E.L.S. vol. 1 (more 90's)
6. Elongated Man (just for fun, I love the character)
7. Warlord vol. 1 (love Grell)
8. Shade the changing man vol. 1 
9. Justice League Generation Lost
10. Hawkman by Ostrander and Messner-Loebs (and please with a Lee Weeks cover, I loved the book just for those covers)

If I could add more books:
- Flash by Messner-Loebs vol. 2 (I didn't vote it because I expect DC to publish this anyway)
- Legends of the DC Universe, Mark Waid's The Brave and the Bold and Batman Legends of the Dark Knight (but probably I would be more satisfied with a set of deluxe editions)
- Impulse vol. 1 (this was my 11th vote)

Voted Superman all the way, from BA through to Warworld Saga. There are way to few Supes omnis. No. 1 pick is New Krypton, which I've never read as I've been holding off, waiting for an omnibus (and it's strange that there hasn't been one, considering it's Johns).
