    I'm waiting for immortal iron first, secret warriors and she Hulk by slott, (that I pre-ordered but was never sent), but I looks like not many people are waiting for those

    Is Mark Waid's run on Daredevil worth the buy of the omnis?

    I'd say so! I think he does lose a little steam near the end, but Samnee's art is top notch throughout.

    Ok. Thanks. I've got all the omnis except these and Shadowland. I believe that one isn't worth it.

    IMHO, definitely yes. It's a very good enjoyable run. As Andru wrote, I agree the latter part that takes place in San Francisco is weaker. However, overall, it is a solid run.

    Thanks. I'll go for it. Soules run comes right after this one, correct?

    Yes, correct. Soule's run is one of my favourites.

    I'd forgotten about that one! I think I was waiting for that Omnibus to be discounted like the first one. I need to go hunting that Omnibus. I was thinking of his wonderful variant cover for Marvel Comics 1000.

    Btw, one of the selling points for me is Union Jack. I'll be picking up the DM Variant with the cover from Invaders #20.

    https://d1466nnw0ex81e.cloudfront.ne...600/605509.jpg

    Classic Invaders cover. I've got a glass with that image on it.

    Yes, you are correct. I was confused. I thought the Roger Stern Marvel Universe issues were in them, but instead they reprinted all those various MU issues, including the 3 Invaders issues, and named the book INVADERS Eve of Destruction.

    Namor the Sub-Mariner, Marvel's oldest character, will have been published for 85 years in 2024. So where's my GOOD Namor anniversary ongoing, Marvel?

    I say yes! Happy/fun Matt Murdock was a nice breath of fresh air.

In addition to the stuff already mentioned I was going to include Waid/Garney’s 3-issue story from Cap: Sentinel of Liberty; some of Byrne’s Namor stuff, specifically Spitfire’s de-aging; the Joey Chapman/Baron Blood 2-issue story from Stern/Byrne’s Cap run; probably both Union Jack minis. A few other appearances. Alas! Maybe I can will a volume 2 with a lot of this stuff into existence...
    Those are all good candidates, plus Brubaker's Captain America The Man With No Face arc, and the Thunderbolts: The Great Escape issues with the Invaders. There's probably some one-shots out there too. They could easily have added a few of these runs, and gotten two nice sized volumes. If this is one volume it is going to be over 1000 pages, I bet.

    After Miller, Bendis and Brubaker it's a big change. I've ordered them. So, I'll know in a while

    Another series: Guardians of the Galaxy, Abnett&Lanning and Bendis omni. What are the thoughts about these?

    Everything by DnA, Yes.
    The Bendis run is entirely skippable, just like his X-men run.

    For me, cosmic Marvel goes:
    Annihilation omni
    Conquest omni (reprinted in May)
    Road to War of Kings omni
    War of Kings omni
    Realm of Kings omni

    Optional: Duggan run + Infinity Wars; Cates run

    But then definitely pick up the current Ewing run. The only reason you'd need the Duggan/Cates runs is because they inform the Ewing run. If you jumped from Realm of Kings straight to Ewing, you'd be lost.

    Waid's Daredevil is an absolute top-notch Marvel comic run, in my opinion. My favorite DD run behind Miller.
