Does anyone have a copy of the WWIII Omnibus for sale or that they can lend me for a few weeks to read? I'm actually getting really interested to read the DDP series and the WWIII story arc has really got me intrigued.

This is becoming my opinion as well, and I'm seeing growing sentiment echoing the same. I don't know. It might just be the same 10 people it's always been that think the DDP stories were good, but it seems like, if nothing else, their getting more voice now, or else it really is beginning to catch on in the face of the sloppy work people are seeing in the IDW re-boot or Hama's continuation of the ARAH title. Anyway, I want to own and read the entire DDP series and own so I'll probably eventually end up collecting the TPBs that are being printed, but for now I just really want to read the WWIII arc.

All of the other America's Elite TPBs (Vols. 1-4) are pretty dang cheap, but that WWIII omnibus gets PRICEY!

DDP was bad for the most part.
WWIII had potential and it's a shame that they lost the liscense mid-storyline and had to rush it to end it.

I loved DDP's stuff. It took into account everything Marvel did, & made it more badass & updated. Still some nostalgic feel too.
But yes, WWIII was rushed. I bought the Omnibus for $35 a few months ago on Amazon Marketplace. |

I just finished rereading the DDP stories and feel like they were a bit of a letdown. WWIII seemed overly ambitious and inevitably rushed.

Good or bad, WW3 is probably the only end we will ever get to the cobra wars, and it was ok.

I thought the ending was fantastic... would have been nice to see how WW3 would have played out if DDP had kept the license and didn't need to rush to a conclusion... the build-up was great.... but the final few issues were painful to read.
