Man Generation-X was so close to making the top 20. Biggest surprise on the list for me is Avengers by Roger Stern being so low on the list. I think ppl are starting to give up on it ever getting made.
The Avengers are Firefighters. We're the ones who fly into the blaze, whatever it is. Because we're the ones who
can, so we're the ones who have to.~Captain Marvel
My top pick is Indiana Jones, which came in at #22 just missing the top 20. It was #42 last year, so glad to see the interest has increased.
From the livestream:
this year's poll had 1595 votes. Last years had about 600. They have heard the complaints about voting site and are working on in improving it before the next poll.
The next poll will be DC omnibus/absolute reprints, and in May will be the most wanted DC omnibus poll.
There were 634 omnibus choices listed. 625 received at least one vote.
337 choices received a 1st place vote.
153 received at least one vote for every rank from 1 to 10.
42% of the top 60 are new this year
27% of the top 60 is Spider-Man related
23% of the top 60 is X-Men related
17% of the top 60 are Silver/Bronze age material that has been collected in Marvel Masterworks
17% of the to p60 are from the past 10 years
10% of the top 60 are licensed characters.
Thanks Rincewind for posting the results and stats
Five of my votes made it into the top 60:
18. Agent Venom
33. Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows
40. Silver Surfer by Steve Englehart (vol 2)
47. Daredevil by Dennis O'Neil
58. Daredevil Vol 4
The five that didn't make it were:
Planet of the Apes Magazine
Captain Mar-Vell Vol. 2
Marvel Universe by Lee Weeks
Captain Britain & MI13
Spider-Man Noir
I didn't vote for a lot of Spidey stuff which I wanted but believed would chart as a lot of people would vote for them and they did.
I do hope we get an extended list i.e. 61-100, or at least a bubbling under ten.
My picks that made it...
5 X-Men: The Messiah Trilogy
21 Generation X Vol 1
59 Thunderbolts Vol 4 (Ellis & Gage)

Indy and gen x missing by one and two votes is an ouch, but nice spider-girl made it in.
Note the alf thing is a running gag on Omar. He is not the biggest alf fan but is sent alf stuff by the other comic youtubers as a gag and they remind him alf is canon! What's funnier is alf still got a high vote even if it didn't make it in!
A few more stats for the poll:

I was surprised that Incredible Hulk vol.3 didn't chart as I feel that series really is doing well that far into its run.
Granted, I also didn't vote for it cause I felt it was more of a certainty along the lines of FF vol.6, ASM vol. 6 and DD vol. 4....guess not.
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" - Optimus Prime
Well, I had two of my picks chart worse than 400th, so that's me once again having my thumb on the pulse of fandom. Oh well. Nate Grey will have his moment in the sun someday. . .

Incredible Hulk Vol 3 fell down to rank 78 this year.
My number #2 of Classic Hawkeye ranked at 599 in this poll. That's out of 635 total. My only rationalization is that the mapping for Hawkeye split the volumes weird and everyone voted for the Solo Avengers era Hawkeye. And that ranked all the way up at...436.
