AS DVD Wave 4 in February - Sealab S2 and Brak V1

Animation Anti-Thesis (http://www.zimed.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=868) has the news.

Bizarro cover. Rock.


But no Brak Complete Collection. Why did we even speculate otherwise?

[Rabi~en~Rose]

I was interested in the Brak complete collection :)

but now it is no more :(

[The Landstander]

Eh, I'm not really excited about either of these. Looking at an episode guide and predicting which episodes, Sealab is about half good and half bad, while Brak is pretty meh to begin with. The Sealab extras/cover art sound neat though (and I didn't even like Bizarro).

So I probably won't get them but hey WHO KNOWS =0

[Anime Guy]

Sealab sounds like a better volume this time than last. The extras mostly convincing me to think this. Volume 1 was just so bereft of extras that I think this is compensation, or maybe not.

Brak also sounds good. The extras being pretty much what I expected. Cartoon Planet specifically. Not surprised about Brak being released in two volumes instead of one set since I'm thinking I read about it in a thread a while back, and since it would be out of character for them to release a set with more episodes than 13 or somewhere around there.

SEALAB 2021 featuring Bizarro in a Marvel Comics cover homage is, easily, the greatest thing to ever exist in the history of stuff. It just reaches out, grabs the geeky fanboy inside of me and says, "hey."

Comments on both:

Sealab: Definitely worth picking up, especially considering how this set has both the "Bizarro" episode and the "Vacation" episode ("UH OH!").

The Brak Show: Would like to see which segments from Cartoon Planet and the Brak variety show are on this set before picking it up (please them include the Cucumber song from the Brak variety show).

The Sealab DVD sounds pretty impressive. I don't think I'll be picking it up, since I didn't like a good majority of the episodes from that season, but the extras get my kudos.

I may pick up the Brak DVD sometime down the line, maybe at a reduced price. I don't know about everyone else, but I thought the first few episodes of The Brak Show were excellent, and definitely wouldn't mind owning them. The extras sound pretty good. Not great, but a decent amount. Although, if there's only commentary on four episodes or something, that'll be different.

[MovieGuy]

Cool. I'll pick up the Brak set. Hope they change the art for it.


Sealab's art is awesome.

[Speedy Boris]

Probably won't be picking up either of these; I'll be picking up Harvey Birdman Vol. 1 and Space Ghost Vol. 3 instead (which should also be coming out in spring of 2005).

Though, like has been said before, glad they included more extras for Sealab Vol. 2.

[JDuncan]

Looks like they're actually going to put extras on these. Wow.

[Duke]

I'll pick up both. I like the Brak Show, and I'll pick up Sealab for the Harry Goz tribute.

[JCorey3rd]

Why do they only put 13 episodes on 2 DVDs? I would pick up Sealab 2021 if it had 20 or more episodes per set. They should have included all the Brak episodes on the set.

They're including everything Brak on these sets, and for some reason the CN labels won't go over 2 discs.

Now I'm confused - there's 28 Brak shows, but only putting 14 on this 2 disc set. Two DVDs can hold more than 160 minutes worth of footage. So it's not a complete Brak collection. I want to get excited about these releases, but they're skimping on the content.

You forget they're also putting the Brak Specials, the Brak News, and the Cartoon Planet Brak segments as extras, plus any other stuff they wanna add.

I'd like to pick up both, but I don't know if I'll be able to afford every volume.
