    1- New X-Men by DeFilippis and Weir (New Mutants 1-13; New X-Men 1-19; New X-Men Academy X Yearbook)
    3- Excalibur by Warren Ellis (contents of Excalibur Visionaries: Warren Ellis Volumes 1-3)
    5- Ms. Marvel (original series; essentially the contents of the MMWs or of Essential Ms. Marvel)
    7- X-23 by Marjorie Liu (X-23 Vol 3 1-21 and relevant crossover issues)
    8- Cable (essentially the contents of Cable Classic Volumes 1-3)
    9- Nightcrawler (both miniseries and both maxiseries; about 32 issues)

    Did anyone else have anything they voted for that didn't make the cut? I'm curious to see how wide-ranging our tastes are.
    I kept forgetting to vote for various reasons, but I would have voted for Earth X(by that I, of course, mean universe X), Peter David's Captain Marvel, and probably Nextwave.

    I think Superior Spider-man will eventually be Omni'd, the real question is will other parts of Slott's run also get Omni'd befor it?

    Did anyone buy (and read) the Werewolf By Night omnibus? I thought the writing in the two issues that introduce Moon Knight was simply dire and I was wondering if that was typical for the series, because if so, I don't see any appeal. Short on plot logic, over the top purple dialogue, and the main character was a completely uninteresting massive tool who probably couldn't cut his way out of a paper bag with a chainsaw. Moench is much better in everything else I've ever read from him, so either this was really early in his career or this werewolf book wasn't a good match for him (though that still doesn't excuse the awful dialogue). Curious.

    bought it but haven't read it yet. I had fun with the 2 MK issues though, each to his own.
    I've found the Defenders issues in the MK epic much, much more worse.

    I'm still secretly hoping Marvel releases an Exiles Omnibus. Would probably have to be split into 2 volumes though.

    Oh, they were. For sure.

    Thankfully it got good when the Hulk magazine backups started.

    I'm thinking of picking up the NYX Complete Collection. Any thoughts on it?

    Yeah, the Defenders stuff was bad. It's just poor dialogue, bad storytelling and overall boring.
    I don't know, for the most part, I just don't like a lot of Bronze Age stuff. It's like there are some great ideas that just get executed poorly.

    Three of my top 10 didn't make the Final 59 (or so):

    3. Daredevil by Denny O’Neill, Klaus Janson, David Mazzucchelli & Others (DD #192-218, #220-225, Marvel Fanfare #27, MTU #140-141)
    4. Amazing Spider-Man by Tom DeFalco (#251-285, Annuals)
    8. Captain America (Silver Age) Vol. 3 (#149-192, Annuals)

    I've been yelling for these two for years!

    In fact, they were on my Top 10 list as well as:

    Daredevil by Denny O'Neil (essentially collects everything between the two Miller runs)
    Amazing Spider-Man (Post Stern up to McFarlane omnibus)

    I like that you added some of the other stuff to the O'Neil book.
