60 What If 1990s

Sad to see that Daredevil by Denny O'Neill and Iron Fist Classic fell out of the Top 60. Would love to have these both in Omnibus format. Omar is definitely a 90s fanboy and am I mistaken in that he seems to dis the Silver Age. He seemed really surprised at the appearance of Daredevil (SA) Vol. 2 in the ballot and the very high position of Incredible Hulk (SA) Vol. 2.
-
I can't tell if Omar doesn't like SA or if he was just surprised how many people prefer that material to bronze+ age material (e.g. wanting Dr Strange v2 vs the Stern run).
Semi-related to your Dennis O'Neil point, what is Marvel's strategy here with older DD collections? Chichester, Nocenti and O'Neil have the only post-Miller runs of any note that aren't collected in omnibus format and for smaller formats, there are huge holes. There is at least one Nocenti epic missing and one that is so far out of print acquiring it now is folly, too, so there's not a great option for her at all; Chichester's run is missing one epic, O'Neil just has the long out of print Love's Labor Lost collection. I'm happy all the modern runs are available in multiple formats; I just wish Marvel would get on board with finishing these runs out in some format!

My votes were:
1- Avengers by Roger Stern vol 1
2 - Avengers by Roger Stern vol 2
3 - Defenders by Steve Gerber (vol 2)
4 - Silver Surfer by Steve Englehart
5 - X-froce + Necrosha by Kyle and Yost
6 - Superior Spiderman Omnibus
7 - Vision and Scarlet Witch Omnibus (two minis)

They could be waiting until the Denny O'Neill run gets masterworked and then they'll let loose with the Epic and Omnibus and other formats. I think it's only a matter of time before all of Nocenti and Chichester get finished up in Epic format. They may very well release the first Nocenti Omnibus next year. It seems to be in high demand (an interesting run but definitely not in my top 5 Daredevil runs).
