Our award-winning, hardest rocking all-valve pedal preamp: ready to slam new life into your guitar amp, pedalboard or recording rig
_
V4 The Kraken is a two-channel pedal preamp that delivers genuine all-valve overdrive. Use it straight into the front of your amp or recording interface, or alternatively use it in conjunction with your amp's FX loop to bypass the front end of your existing amp entirely for a whole new sound experience. This is definitely no 'ordinary' overdrive pedal!
All-valve signal path
1 x EC900 and 3 x CV4014 valves running at high plate voltage. These are the first pedal-format guitar preamps to feature four valves and an all-valve signal path. This is no 'ordinary' overdrive pedal!
Two Channels
Just like its namesake amp, Gain 1 is a slightly looser more 'vintage' British-inspired gain sound. Gain 2 is tighter in the bass with a more cutting midrange character and, of course, more drive.
Remote Switching
The TRS jack gives you option of switching the pedal remotely. You can control on/off and also channel 1/2 with either a separate two-button latching footswitch or via a modern programmable switching unit. This means you can have the V4 Series Pedal Preamp off the floor and out of harm's way.
Two ways to connect
We recommend 'Amp Through Mode' for full functionality where you can choose to use your amp's own front end, or the V4 Preamp via the amp effects loop. To use it as a 'normal' pedal or if you don't have an effects loop, use 'Standalone' mode.
Bright Switch
Bright is a global tone control that optimises the V4 Pedal Preamp for what you're plugging into. Amp effects loops, inputs, recording devices and so on all differ greatly, so just choose the setting that sounds best to your ears. Don't worry if other settings sound 'bad'. It all depends what you're playing through!
Live, home & studio
Put it on your pedalboard, on top of your amp or on your desktop. It's particularly good for fly dates, or other situations when you're not using your own amp. Just hit the FX loop return of whatever you're using and feel right at home in no time.
Steel Chassis
If you're going to be standing on it and it contains hot glass, it needs to be tough. The folded steel chassis and kick bar for the knobs means that this thing is ready for the road.
Three-Band EQ
Powerful bass, middle and treble controls. These also have a significant effect on the gain character and drive levels - just like in any valve guitar amp.
- Two connection modes
- Two switchable gain modes
- Steel chassis and control protection bar
- Remote TRS switching option

A fairly decent super hero romp
Format: Paperback
If Mister Terrific suffers from any one flaw it is that he is incredibly generic. Nothing about this book was particularly offensive and it provided for some fairly good reads but the villains Terrific goes up against are hardly that. Despite this weakness, I found the series to be a fairly good read and while the major ongoing storylines were clearly cut short by the title's untimely demise, the ending satisfactorily led into the current status quo for Mister Terrific on Earth-2. Whether his presence there becomes relevant or not remains to be seen (particularly with the depature of Earth-2 writer James Robinson) but as things stand now, Mind Games still seems to be valuable background reading for Earth-2 and also lays a bit of ground work for the plot in World's Finest, meaning that Mister Terrific is nicely connected to the two current Earth-2 based titles.
The pace of the book is fairly decent, with several short story arcs that see Mister Terrific facing different villains and an ongoing plot throughout that deals with Terrific's secret identity and the issues he is dealing with as the CEO of a Fortune 500 company. The writing is not always sharp but the supporting cast is fairly solid and its a tragedy that we probably won't see some of these characters again. Terrific himself has enjoyable, if somewhat illogical, inner monologue that typically involves him thinking through a problem and while the science is (often) fuzzy, Wallace does a good job of showing how science and tech form the basis of Mister Terrific's powerset.
I would characterize this book as a solid B-list entry. Fans of the character may appreciate it as well as readers looking for something a little different but it is by no means a must-read. I'll be keeping it on my shelf as an important book for World's Finest and Earth-2 (both of which I have pulled since issue #1) however. If you can get your hands on this trade (or its related single issues) for a modest price, it provides a decent couple of hours of reading. It is a pity that nothing stands out particularly well but I appreciated that so much seemed to happen in only eight issues compared to some of the tedious extended plots of other comics.

Silver Age Batman time trip
Format: Hardcover
Fun book. I was born at the very beginning of the Silver Age and had older brothers, so I was reading by four, and had great reading material available.

A Baby Boomer dream come true!
Format: Hardcover
I love the Golden Age omnibus Batman series. However, for many of us baby boomers the Silver Age is what we’ve been craving. Those were exciting days back then, looking for the new issue of Batman or Detective Comics on the newsstand. One of the previous reviewers is correct, though, there are some missing issues between the last golden age omnibus and this, the first silver age omnibus, that need to be put into book form at some point. I certainly hope we get them. But more than anything I am really hoping that this will not be the first and last silver age omnibus. By my count, there are almost exactly the issues needed to make three more silver age volumes before we get to the “new look Batman,” which started in mid 1964. And frankly, I hope they continue on with a “new look” omnibus series as well. This first volume, though, was absolutely beautiful! The re-creation of these old panels is breathtaking. When you go back and look at the old dot matrix original issues and compare them to the re-printings contained within this omnibus…well…there simply is no comparison. Batman, the Silver Age Omnibus Volume One is practically as good as it gets. The only thing more I could have wished for would have been the inclusion of the old advertisements that decorated the pages of the original issues. Other than that, this book is perfect. Wow!

Quality Reproduction of Artwork
Format: Hardcover
The book looks great and includes a massive amount of content; however, this is DC Batman Silver Age stories verses Marvel Silver Age stories. It was hard getting through some of the stories and did not make it through the entire book. I think I would have enjoyed the stories that came before this collection and/or the great Neal Adams Batman content. This era of batman stories was just silly and boring. But just my opinion.
