Whew, hope you got a few extra grand laying around.
I'm also hoping to collect the entire Claremont run of X-Men, but came too late to the collected edition party. Glad to see the new Mutant Massacre omni get released but I'm in no hurry to get it considering I won't be reading it for years probably. I'm debating whether to save some money for the OOP omnis, wait many years for the Epics to get released, or wait many years for more re-done omnis.
Releasing this run has to be like printing money for Marvel, too bad they can't push more of it out.

In addition to everything Starro listed above, if you’re including the annuals, you’d also need the X-Men: Days of Future Present OHC, collecting the main story from UXM annual #14.

I’m in the same boat as you. Just started collecting Xmen a year or so ago. Got UXM Omni 1/2, AOA, and Mutant Massacre. Gonna fill line out with Epics and Omni’s as they come out or are re released. I’d jump on Mutant Massacre. I thought I’d wait on Vol 3 Omni and missed out. I refuse to pay secondary market prices.

Thanks for typing that all out. I appreciate you taking the time to do that. I usually use Wikipedia to see what's been collected and what's been missed but I must have missed a few. Thanks again! Originally Posted by Starro

Same here but I got UXM vol.3 thankfully when it came out, along with the reprints of 1 & 2. I think I'm going to buy the Inferno Prologue omni next cause it's still available and I feel like it's less-likely to get a reprint. I'll still buy Mutant Massacre in the next few months, just not this week Originally Posted by 2nd line g
. I'll likely try to fill the rest with TPBs and wait for reprints or Epics of he other OOP stuff. Not paying $300 for an omni!
Yes, thank you! A nice concise list. Originally Posted by WTHIOTina

I started collected Omnis a little over 3 years ago and completed my X-Men collection, up until this point, last month with the releases of the Mutant Massacre Omni and the Magneto War TPB. I didn't pay over cover (unless you count shipping) for any of the books and actually got a large chunk of them for under cover , so it is definitely still possible to do.

Did anyone get the recent X-Men Marauders trade or X-Factor Epic? Was wondering what the paper was like.

How good is Waid's Fantastic Four run with Wieringo?
Worth picking up the omni? I mean, I love Waid but I'm not huge on the FF.

Waid and Wieringo's run is very enjoyable as a "back-to-basics" run that never feels like it's trying to rip off Lee and Kirby or Byrne. Its take on Doom is divisive and it has some of Waid's trademark attempts to over-explain things (like his retcon of the Yancy Street Gang), but it has one of the most sympathetic and likable portrayals of Reed. I believe Tom Brevoort, who has edited most Fantastic Four runs since 2002, has said this is his favorite of all his FF runs so far.
The contents of the omnibus are the same as the three oversized hardcovers that came out in the '00s, except for the new introduction by former FF editor Ralph Macchio.
Which brings up what I originally came here to post about: In some ways I like that Marvel has gotten Macchio to do introductions and afterwords for so many of its recent collections, since it's a nice bonus and few people know more about the history of Marvel from the 1970s onwards... but I find his introductions disappointing because they say almost nothing about the comics, even the ones he edited himself, except that they're great and wonderful and every run is terrific and pulse-pounding. I don't expect him to say bad things about creators or runs, but some of the Masterworks introductions find ways to give us more insight without bad-mouthing any of the stories.
Macchio has had an interesting career because in his long Marvel career he edited some of the most successful Marvel runs (Miller's second Daredevil run, Simonson's Thor, Ultimate Spider-Man) but also edited some of the very worst (parts of Chichester's Daredevil, Avengers: The Crossing, much of late '90s Spider-Man). I'd like to know a little more about what he knows.

So I watched a video earlier of someone that had picked up the Jeph Loeb/Tim Sale Yellow Blue Gray White collection, and I was thinking it was gonna be an omnibus since that was what it was listed as, but apparently it's an OHC. Not sure if it has a glued binding but it seems similar to the Infinity OHC. I'm confused as to how both this and Waid Fantastic Four omnis were both the same price when they are both Marvel but the Fantastic Four has like 200-300 more pages and a way better binding. Already bought one off IST earlier in the week, but damn I wish it was an omni

Huh, well I'm glad I held off from purchasing it. I already have the Yellow Blue Gray and the Cap White OHCs.The only reason I was thinking about having it was due to the fact it would be labelled/fashioned as an Omnibus and I would pick it up at clearance. The Star Wars Kanan "Omnibus " also turned out to be "just" an OHC. Originally Posted by HuggyBear
