Is it bad that I don’t even remember “The End”? It totally didn’t show up on my radar of interest… I also didn’t realize THAT many Battleworld minis were out during Secret Wars. I only read a handful.

The End does not include Punisher: The End or Spider-Girl: The End. Battleworld should take about 4 omnibus to collect all the Secret War tie ins.
Both are passes for me. But I'm very glad that the Secret Wars event is getting the omni treatment. Pretty much 100% of the time I don't buy event omnis because of just wayyy too many extraneous issues. SW is the only event where I liked at least 50% of the tie-ins, and happy coincidence for me is that this omni (except Civil War) collects all the ones I don't like. So I'll be on the lookout for the next Battleworld omni.
Its hilarious how much Epics go for once they go out of print.
Im looking for Kirby's Thor Vol 2 and 5 and they are going for around $150(!).
Both will likely get reprinted, no doubt - so patience - but the collector thirst (for some) is real...I guess.
Currently Reading:
Milligan's Shade the Changing Man, Vertigo Hellblazer trades, Love and Rockets TPBs, Stray Bullets TPBs, Ellis' The Wildstorm
I'm also collecting Epics (ASM, Cap, Avengers, WC Avengers, Iron Man, Hulk, Wolverine) and it's incredibly frustrating having to wait for reprints and for new releases to fill in the gaps
If you think about it, there are Epics which were released 10 years ago (!!!) without a reprint announced

Except shang chi, conan and other non marvel ips that may never get an epic reprint.
Omnis are my focus for collecting and up until about 6/7 yrs ago there were lots, a multitude, of Omnis that had never been reprinted. It seemed the only ones that got reprinted up till then were the Silver Age volumes for the Central characters(FF, SM, Av, Thor and X-men. Even Hulk and IM couldn't get reprints till as recently as this past year, or current year for IM volumes.
