I hope they use the smiley button art on the Steelbook

I wasn't expecting that at all, but I am so hyped for it! It's about the only DC film I care about that I don't have a premium for.

That’s a surprise!

That’s a surprise!

But a welcome one!

Amazing news.

Wowsers!

Was just thinking, 6 main characters there in the header... So one on each side of the 3 slips?

A Watchmen and Minutemen transition I would accept, contrasted with the Comedian.

Jesus wept, they're all brilliant. I think I'll have to OC it. Both sides of DLA are flip lentis, and the front of DLB. Hopefully they're not crap transitions, as that'll ruin them.

I wasn’t expecting this. I adore this film. But man the slips just aren’t doing it for me. The backs of the DLs yeah are great but I can’t handle any poor flip flop lentis from them. So probably FS. I would love to OC if I was guaranteed their lentis are top notch but it’s too much of a risk nowadays with manta.

Been hoping/waiting for this one for a while... I remember John at Manta saying to me once that it's a release he really wanted to do, so I'm glad we both finally got that wish!

I will say I'm not completely satisfied with any of the slips though... FS I like the front but not the back, DL-A I like the back but not the front, and same with DL-B. So I technically like/dislike them all equally lol.

Best art is used on the OC as always, so I may even be tempted to go for that if funds allow it. Not sure I would've gone for that as back art for the steel, but I don't hate it. Front is perfect!

Here's my old concept btw...

Exactly how I feel. I like the front of the FS and the backs of the lentis! Downer

Let's face it... it wouldn't be a Manta release if we were completely happy with the slips lol.

Do we know what's on the discs yet? Director cut, Ultimate cut, theatrical?

4K is Ultimate edition

Yep. There is only the Ultimate cut in 4K, so it's that, plus the theatrical on blu-ray. Same as Paramount's 4K amaray.

ofc best art on the OC (back) again
