For me its surprise that they have release so much below average material, and nothing significant yet in the Epics, not even the first issues. I know they may never handle the Miller stuff in Epic format but they are only now just starting to get to the more interesting runs.
Thanks, all! As always, you gave me a good way to think about the question. I think it's pretty clear that even though the Omnibus includes everything, I'm not excited about it. I'm going to take a pass on this one, pick up a cheap used TPB of the Steranko stuff, and if I fall utterly in love with it I'll work on grabbing the MMWs for cheap after the aftermarket deflates.
Next question: Can anyone figure out what the DM cover is for Werewolf By Night? I am definitely for sure buying the Omni, but I cannot find an image of it anywhere!

Hey, fixed that for you
Heh.
Just ordered the SHIELD omnibus. I've never read these issues before and I'm not expecting much out of the writing, but the art will be brilliant.
I went back and forth with Werewolf by Night, but I got a hold of all these floppies about 15 years ago and read them, and, well, I've always found the bronze age writing style pretty dull. I don't expect it to get better now, so I'm going to pass on this one.
On a side note, I just went through my upcoming books list and I don't have any other omnibus books from Marvel through at least January. Couple OHCs, but no omnibus books.
