Do the Absolute volumes have any kind of extra material included?

How often are you asked to contribute new material for collections, JB?

Under the content triangle, it says, very generically, "deluxe features and extras."

Absolute editions usually have alternative covers and sketches as extras.
I heard the reason they're making this is that they needed to re-scan the original pages. So after this, they'll be releasing a JB Superman omnibus.

So they’re not considering the 4-volume MAN OF STEEL Omnibuses to
“John Byrne Omnibus”?

No, they're not large enough in scale to be counted as omnibuses. The new scans are done so they can print in larger formats.
