I started reading Black Science in trade paperbacks and upgraded to the hardbacks for my home library. This is a really great book. Excellent for Sci-Fi fans. It takes the concept of the infinite multiverse and really pushes the boundaries of what that means on an individual level. Remender's writing is spot on Scalera's art goes perfectly with the subject matter. In generally I would say the book is appropriate for most high school kids and many middle school kids but there are some more adult scenes so be aware if you are buying for younger kids.
One the negative side:
I have ordered many hardback collections of comics/graphic novels and about 50% of the time Amazon finds a way to damage the book. I just don't think there is a way to guarantee these items come in a pristine condition. Throwing 3 hardbacks in a box and tossing 4 channels of air filled packing on top of it is just lazy and careless. Just know that if you order this book from Amazon there is a good chance it will have some kind of damage.

"Remastered"... the binding
Fixes the binding issue of the first release of this collection. Original had glued spine without any extra page space, cutting out a big chunk of art and even some dialogue. Love Image's high quality paper - but it made for some pretty bad gutter loss.This one is sewn like Vol 2. They also added a bunch of extra bonus content and changed up the cover/spine to make it seem like a different release as well - but the purpose of this book is pretty obviously just to fix the binding of the original without admitting the mistake.If you own the original, just bite the bullet and upgrade to this version, it's much much better. (And surprisingly more dense.)If you are looking to upgrade from floppies or trades, this is the version you want.If you have none of these things, what's wrong with you? Read this book already.
