It's weird that the reprint comics made for Pizza Hut just seemed to be for random issues, they could have just gone with reprints of the first issues.

I thought someone had earlier posted the covers of those giveaways--but when I went back, I couldn't find any post with the covers I'd seen a few days ago (I use Safari and Chrome browsers if that makes a difference). 

tartanphantom Did you remove the images from your linked post? IIRC there were 2 Wonder Woman reprint edition covers, 2 Batman covers, and some others.  Or am I thinking of a different post?


ETA: 
In case anyone's interested seeing which comics were part of this  promotion, there's info at this link superfriends.fandom.com/wiki/Pizza_Hut

The reprinted comics were as follows: Superman 97 and 113; Batman 122 and 123; Wonder Woman 60 and 62.

Oh okay--glad I wasn't imagining things (and that I had indeed seen cover images earlier)  I kept thinking, well. maybe I saw the covers in another thread, for some odd reason??   

From what I understand GCD doesn't allow direct linking (hotlinking) to its images/cover images, which is probably why they vanished from your post.  

Yeah, GCD prohibits hotlinking because of the additional cists it incurs to their operating costs to host the site. If you hot link it, the images will often appear in your cache and be visible to you, but not to anyone else looking at the post.

Not sure if that's what's happening here, but I generally avoid hotlinking to them as a courtesy because I use their site so much and don't want to incur additional expenses for them when they provide such a great service essentially for free to me unless I choose to donate.

According to my the proprietor of my LCS, that is exactly the case.

I don't actually get it (I'm happy to get trades) but Diamond lists it as a package for the month, so no single issues.   it is also prohibitively expensive. 

Primarily the dimensions and page count. Absolute Editions are oversized, usually about magazine sized in dimension i.e. 9 1/2 by 12, and usually come in a slipcase. Only DC does the Absolute editions. Omnibus are usually standard hardcover/tpb size, but that can vary from publisher to publisher, some publishers like Dark Horse do softcover omnibus editions. Omnibus have larger page counts and usually collect a larger number of issues.

example

Absolute Wonder Woman by Azzarello and Chiang(which I own as Ollie's had copies) comes in a slipcase, is that 9 1/2 by 12 size and clocks in at 480 pages collecting new52 Wonder Woman #0, 1-18. MSRP $125

The omnibus of Azzarelo Chiang WW is 8 1/2 by 11 inches, no slipcase, clocks in at 928 pages and and collects 0, 1-35, 23.1 and a story form Secret Origins (new52 series) 6. MSRP $150.

So more content, slightly smaller size for the omnibus.

Be aware though, what each publisher means by omnibus varies. Marvel and DC are pretty similar in their use of the format. Image's Deluxe Edition hardcovers are similar in size to DC Absolute Editions, but don't use the Absolute branding as DC does, but they also tend to have fewer issues per volume (example staying with Cliff Chiang) Paper Girls has 3 Deluxed Edition HC, about the size of an absolute, but with no slipcase and each collecting only 10 issues or about 2 regular trades worth of issues.
