All New Marvel Collected Editions

[koonfasa]

Handbook of the Marvel Universe, entire issues by Miller? I wanted to say all these collected as an omnibus... pretty close.

What do folks thing of Mark Waid and CaptainAmerica/?

You mean Mark Waid's run on Captain America? Most people speak highly of it. The art by Kubert is good, but colouring is very 90s.

Can I ask which of the Uncanny X-men volumes is likely to go oop first? If I want to chip away at the 3 books over the summer, it'd be a priority to avoid one going oop in the mean time.

I would wager vol. 1 will be an evergreen title at Marvel and they will keep reprinting them if they go out of print.
Vol. 2 also recently got reprinted and they may reprint this in line with demand for vol. 1 and other volumes, but maybe less so just on the fact that it is a vol. 2.
So I suggest go for vol. 3 first and work your way back from there.

My guess would be 3.

That would also be my guess - Vol. 3. Vols 1-2, like ASM Vols 1-2 and Fantastic Four Vols 1-2 and possibly Daredevil Miller will be reprinted from time to time.

Too bad they didn't do a proper Bronze Age Iron Fist omnibus instead of collecting it with the rest of that other crap.

Agreed. Easy pass along with the Miller hodgepodge

Yes, totally agree. I reckon the Miller and Byrne Vol. 2 Omnibuses will have pretty low numbers. Both a real mishmash hodgepodge.

Instead of a reprint of the Epic IF, they could have given us an Omnibus in line with Season 2. They gave us a ton of Punisher Omnis, one Iron Fist Omnibus would be much appreciated.

Just realised I left out vital information.

I meant MARK wAID / Garney and kubert

Fixed that for you

You mean Mark Waid's run on Captain America? Most people speak highly of it. The art by Kubert is good, but colouring is very 90s.

I haven't read the material, but I picked up the Omnibus and it's a beautiful book. Colouring definitely 90s but it all looks great in oversized format. If you're a CA fan, I'd recommend it.

Just realised I left out vital information.

I meant MARK wAID / Garnet and kuber

ok this is probably an unpopular opinion but here it goes:
I've picked up the epic collection when it came out and was so excited to finally read this fan favourite run so as soon as it arrived I've cracked it open and.... my enthusiasm died within like 3 issues.
Garney's art came off as amateurish and while I can see what Waid was doing, making Cap vulnerable and then gradually bring him back to his original form, he just came off as pathetic and useless. Like in Fear Itself when he is firing a machine gun and shouting some inspirational lines at particularly no one (well at least that's the image I have in my head, it's been a while since I've read FI).
I think Brubaker managed to deconstruct Cap so much better. And I've read other takes on Cap too, I liked what Johns did in his short Avengers run, I liked Stern's run and I've even enjoyed McKenzie's stuff (or at least the few issues I've read) although I know it's not considered to be the best. Haven't read Gruenwald yet I was just mentioning the other writers to put my opinion into perspective.
So I've ended up not even finishing the book and just gave it to a friend along with the first Priest Black Panther complete coll. or maybe sold it along with WWHulk and Planet Hulk and Miracle man vol 1(that was a particularly bad month of Marvel stuff I've read).
But I know a lot of people love this run although, not to disregard their opinion, but it might be for the same reason some people love Busiek's Avengers, because after a really bad "90s garbage" period they've brought the title back to their roots.

Thanks for letting me know. So if I order book 3 today, it would be my best bet to grab vol. 2 in the next few weeks.

One other question, there are other Claremont X-Men omnibuses, that are set after vol. 3. Like Massacre & Revolution. Can I skip these or do they fill in gaps?

Mutant Massacre, if I understand the math right, would follow a hypothetical UXM v4 (there is a ~35 issue gap between vol 3 and Massacre). There is a short gap after that, then Fall of the Mutants. I highly recommend using this site all the time, btw

Revolution is much much further down the line, continuity wise and so you can skip that one.

The new MM omni will fill those gaps afterwards if I'm not mistaken. Also, i think the consensus is it will take 2 more omnis to bridge that gap from vol 3 once you factor in all the ancillary material that will more than likely be included
