Muppet babies. It was a roller-coaster of emotions. Highs and lows, smiles and cries. Riveting mysteries and heartwarming journies not to be missed by anyone.
Daredevil: Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev. Possibly the best written work I’ve read. Bendis was a young star with fresh ideas and Maleev’s realistic style in gritty New York was a match made in Heaven.
No question: Savage Sword of Conan Volume 1. Some of the best Conan stories (Black Colossus, Iron Shadows of the moon, A Witch Shall Be Born) adapted by Roy Thomas and John Buscema. Volume 2 is just as good, with People of the Black Circle and Tower of the Elephant.
For me, it's Aquaman by Geoff Johns. It's got a special place in my heart because it's the first Omnibus I brought and the first video I saw from you was the review of the Omnibus. No prior backstory, awesome art and only 75 dollar cover price. A book for everyone and a good example for this format in my opinion.
It’s been a while but the last one I read was the “Paper Girls” Omni. I absolutely loved it. A real special time in my life. Fall days, drinking warm coffee, powering thru this book. A vibe and a read I’ll never forget. It’s been a minute since I’ve read an Omni tho. I’m in the middle of Ice Cream Man hardcover Omni but I’ve been half way thru it for a year and some. I really want to give the “Saga” Omni a read too! That’ll be the next one I think I’ll delve into
still working on the collection, but the Y omni really hit me in the feels. I just get the urge to just open it and look at it and put it back every once in a while
@@mormorgranat I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. 😊 This comic series ran parallel to the tv show and includes original stories (minus of course the phantasm story, which is an adaptation) 😊
On the DC side, for me it's JSA by Geoff Johns Volume 2. It's when the run really started to pick up and it has arguably the best JSA stories such as Black Reign, Out Of Time, JSA/JSA, Stealing Thunder and many others. Each member gets their chance to shine and nobody gets left behind. It is also the Omnibus that made Hourman my favorite JSA member. Highly recommend the JSA omnibuses On the Marvel side I have to go with the Daredevil by Bendis Omnibuses. I could not stop reading the first volume. It got to a point where I had to force myself to stop reading because I didn't want to finish it too quickly. Just seeing Matt's life slowly crumble more and more as the story progresses was very unfortunate to see. The artwork was also really good. I do think that Brubaker's run was a great follow up at first but at some point it got a bit too depressing for my taste.
Sleeper by Brubaker is awesome. Preacher, 100 Bullets, Walking Dead, and Starman technically is in omnis, but it deserves the full omnibus treatment. And probably the most underrated superhero team book: JSA by Johns in 3 omnis.
For DC I'd say Animal Man by Lemire. I couldn't put it down and just when I thought it couldn't get anymore crazy, it did. For Marvel I'd say Daredevil by Soule. If you love the show you'd love this book
Transmetropolitan by Warren Ellis. One of my FAVORITE Comics EVER made! i read it once a year its that good. Always surprised when people tell me they never heard of it. Masterpiece imo
I really liked the differing opinions on this. I got into omnis because of this channel and others like it a few years ago. Saying to myself "wtf is an omni?" Now I own aroud 350 of them and is my go to hobby. Of the 350 I probably read around 260. Most of it being the important stuff good or bad. I do have a top 3 if I can cheat a lil. No paticular order but Cosmic ghost rider was AMAZIN! Loved that omni! I gotta throw in no mans land. All three omnis. Was shocked at how good it was. The one I may get heat for is the Dan slot Silver surfer omni, that I actualy got from Gem on whatnot. Everything I was reading at the time was dark and intense, so the lighthearted wholsomeness hit at the right time. Loved the ending. Super fun read!
I'd have to say Loeb/Sale Batman was awesome. One of the only ones I have read multiple times. Surprisingly the Predator Omni Vol 1 was a great read, wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did. And the 3 Punisher Ennis Omni's were all great
Hellblazer is my overall favorite Omnibus. Savage Avengers was the most fun, but plot was just the basic beat ‘em up story. The best event for me Batman No Man’s Land. Gotham Central was awesome too.
My favorite Omnibus, as in a book I picked up, couldn't put down and looked forward to opening up would have to be THUNDERBOLTS Omnibus vol 1. Love Kurt Busiek's writing and Bagely on art is chef's kiss. Second would have to be Spiderman 2099!
I don't know if this counts because it's not a hard cover and called a compendium, but The Walking Dead volumes 1 & 2 are hard to put down. I never watched TV show, but I love those comics. I also like Savage Sword of Conan volume 1 and I'm a huge fan of the Brave and the Bold Omni's volumes 1 thru 3(loved them as a kid and I'm nostalgic for some Jim Aparo art!)
Daredevil by Frank Miller and Klaus Jensen Omnibus is my favorite Omnibus but I also have 4 Hellboy Omnibuses (Vol 1 Seed of Destruction, Vol 2 Strange Places, Vol 3 The Wild Hunt, and Vol 4 Hellboy in Hell) and 3 BPRD Omnibuses (Vol 1 - 2 which are the most overrated ones and The Devil You Know which is the most underrated and it's my other favorite) which are very good as well. My twin brother has one Omnibus which is Green Arrow the Golden Age Omnibus Vol 1.
I kinda agree about the loeb sale omni...definetly my favorite DC omni. I think for marvel omnis....either Spider-man vs Venom or Uncanny X-Force as far as manga Berserk deluxe editions and for euro comics Metabarons.
Yeah I own all the libraries though. Not sure what to do yet. Might buy the monster sized and keep both. It doesn't seem to be that expensive after all@@xXCigarXx
My fav omnibus is X-MEN vol 2 By Chris Cleremont and Jim lee The art in it is breathtaking and i love that it has x-men issue 1 with all that beautiful 90s ness
Savage Sword of Conan: The Original Marvel Years Vol 1. Roy Thomas, John Buscema, Barry Windsor-Smith, Alfredo Alcala and others adapting Robert E. Howard tales. It doesn't get any better than that.
Last year I read every 300 issues of Hellblazer. It was a daunting task. It has it's ups and downs as any long running series will have. But it's diverse enough that you'll have to pick which writers run you like best. Highlights for me was Ennis, Azzarello, and Carey. It's a series you have to take breaks from to not get worn out on. Best way to break them up is when the author changes. The series starts out at a slow burn at first through the Delano run. But it really picks up once Ennis gets on board. The post Ennis era by Jenkins is another lull in the series, but picks up again. That's just my opinion, other people may like different arcs and yours may be different. There's enough there to like. All in all, it's a good title to read if you take little breaks in between arcs.
@@GemMintCollectibles I recommend finding your way back to it again sometime. At least do yourself the service of reading the Ennis run. The first few trades by Delano are a little abstract in storytelling. That's why it's good to take a break in between authors so you can approach them with a little freshness.
Yeah Batman by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale is evergreen. I feel Like Avengers by Hickman and Venom by Cates are two of my favorites. Injustice still in my top though.
I don't have enough experience to know for myself what would even be my top 3 omnis. But, based upon some speculation I think it would have to be either focused stories or team based stuff.
To comment on the FF by Byrne for you Stephen, the first omni starts a bit slow because he didn't have the full control but if you get through the first couple of issues then it a 10 or something issues gap, and then Byrne gets to write and draw the stories, that's when it gets good.
Just finished the vid. Im very disappointed no one mentioned Hellboy. Its one of those where people want to read it but never do. Give it a chance its a Masterpiece imo.
That I’ve read ? I own a small amount but I’ll give it to Watchmen. Liked it so much I also got my hands on the From Hell omnibus and Before Watchmen Omnibus.
So far, for me, it’s been Bendis’ Daredevil, JMC’s Amazing Spider-Man, SW The Old Republic (Marvel), and The Dark Tower Omnis.oh and Batman from Loeb and Sale.
as the guy in the video who mentioned miles I completely agree. the lone issue where he met Peter from 616 was awesome but when he was in the ultimate universe it was so much better. Saladin Ahmeds recent run is pretty solid but the Bendis Vol 1 omni is still the best Miles omni imo
Fantastic Four vol. 1 by Stan and Kirby naturally, Marvel Knights Inhumans (Okay, thats a maxi-series, but whatever.) The series "Inhuman" I think had enough for an "Complete collection" if they would just finally release it. Sad how they were torn askew between the ending of "Inhuman", the "Royals" series (12 Iss. I think), and finally Cates, Death of the Inhumans. More than ever a reboot of the terrigen mists is deserving, and an Ultimate Inhumans would be an awesome way to go with that! Either that or my Aetheric Genome Exultation experimental idea.
Animal Man by Morrison simp/defender here, it's worth all the praise and more, even makes it a breeze to read in the Omni. If DC ever wants to give us Veitchs Swamp Thing run, that's going up to the top, hey there's you're next topic, what's the Omni run/collected #s you most want 🤣
I own 33 omnibuses, but have only fully read 6 of them. But I’d say my favorite so far has been Thunderbolts vol 1. Moon Knight vol 1 is a very close second.
Yes it’s been a year and a few months when I initially got back into comics because like most people I read some comics when I was a kid but wasn’t to invested tell now. But as a suggestion I think you should do the Worst,Most Overrated and Best Absolute now. I think those would be some good videos as well. Maybe as well as most wanted.
@@GemMintCollectibles yeah I noticed alot of people were saying Saga of Swamp thing which I don’t blame them its a classic. So figured what other absolutes are peoples favorites. I know I would like to see those videos as well.
@@edgysnarfbrownie5778 It's been collected in multiple formats but yeah, you'd think they'd have it by now. I'm sure it'll get the omnibus treatment after they make all their money on the first Absolute prints.
Started collecting omnibus 2 years ago. One of the first complete sets I bought was Morrison’s Batman 1-3! Read all 3 and have to say they aren’t as bad as some say. I love Batman in general, so who knows? Maybe I am biased. Some of the story elements were really strange and I didn’t like but I would never say I hate it. Haha. To each their own. What are main reasons why people dislike it? Didn’t see the reasons why in the comments
Sandman/ Big Damn Sin City/ Invincible/ Gotham Central/ Preacher/ Walking Dead/ Daredevil by Bendis/ Captain America Brubaker/ Silver Surfer by Slott/ Black Hammer/ Swamp Thing by Moore and Snyder/ and Darth Vader by Gillen are some of favorites.
I really like all of my omni’s JSA by Geoff Johns 1-3 x-factor by Peter David many more But I’m going to shout out Green arrow by Mike Greil vol 1 and 2 more people need to read it cause it’s incredible finished each omni in 4 days
For me the best I've read is Grant Morrisons Animal Man AND Jeff Lemires Animal Man. Turned me into a huge fan of Animal Man, also two of the best creators around
On the DC side, my favorite omni is JLA by Grant Morrison, probably one of the most important runs for me as a reader, others that are very close to the top include Superman by Tomasi and Gleason, Super Sons and Blackest Night. On the Marvel side, Uncanny X-Force is my favorite Marvel run of all time, and Ultimate Spider-Man and FF by Hickman are very close
One I’ll mention purely because I don’t think this series has gotten enough love (so consider this more “underrated” than “the overall best,”) but Bitter Root Hardcover Omnibus from Image Comics. Not only is the hardcover as TALL as an omnibus, but thicker than most at that price ($60 cover price). It’s an INCREDIBLE story that does politics in comics RIGHT, and is even getting a film adaptation soon. A MUST-READ for anyone who likes comics
Shame marvel doesn't do absolutes which is the best format. Legion legacy was a great read if you like psychedelic stories like the Sandman and the Demon bear saga.
At this point I’ve only read 2 omnis but I’d have to say Star Wars war of the bounty hunters is my fave. The other I read was house of m. The mapping just ruined it for me. The main story was excellent but the tie ins were a slog.
Always cool hearing your thoughts on my and others opinions in the group with topics like this, appreciate you not grilling me about my love for Ms.Marvel bro😂 Hope you keep doing these vids cause I think its super fun for us in the fb group plus the homies on TH-cam who haven't joined the group. 🤟
@@GemMintCollectibles much respect for being that chill not everyone thinks that way that's for sure lol and fr I hope you keep doing different vids like this cause these are super fun! :)
@@JoeArnold333I haven’t read the Wilson book, but I really did like the OG Ms. Marvel run (Carol Danvers). Maybe one of these days I’ll give the Kamala Khan story a read.
@@2ndstreetmarvel tbh ive never read Carol but ive heard the Kelly Thompson run is amazing, Kamala is definitely different from Carol in like every way possible but her run from G Willow Wilson is really really great imo.
Muppet babies. It was a roller-coaster of emotions. Highs and lows, smiles and cries. Riveting mysteries and heartwarming journies not to be missed by anyone.

Daredevil: Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev. Possibly the best written work I’ve read. Bendis was a young star with fresh ideas and Maleev’s realistic style in gritty New York was a match made in Heaven.

Gotham Central has been the most enjoyable omni I've read
Good video! They did make a Locke & Key omnibus. They call it a HC compendium but it is same size and fits with Marvel and DC omnibus.
fan of these community posts videos.
Gotham Central is really good. It takes place in batman's world and he's barely in it. Great stuff!
Always love seeing the comments on these
My favorites:
Deadpool by Gerry Duggan
Injustice
Sin City
Venom by Donny Cates
Hellblazer is my overall favorite Omnibus. Savage Avengers was the most fun, but plot was just the basic beat ‘em up story. The best event for me Batman No Man’s Land. Gotham Central was awesome too.

Gotham central
Ultimate spiderman vol 1
That I’ve read ?
I own a small amount but I’ll give it to Watchmen. Liked it so much I also got my hands on the From Hell omnibus and Before Watchmen Omnibus.
52 omnibus, the standard of gold.
Hmmm 🤔 Thunderbolts vol 1. MoonKnight by Benson and Hurwitz, Blackest Night anniversary Omni, War of Kings and Sleeper
Thunderbolts is great!🤘🏿
JSA by Geoff Johns, especially volumes one and two. Honorable mention to Justice League International Volume one.
I’m surprised how many people liked that. I got recommended it when I was a new reader and it just didn’t hit for me.
Which one? JSA or JLI?
I wanna see best TPBs/Mini series, there are so many under that umberella we might should narrow it by genre.
I agree with this
So far, for me, it’s been Bendis’ Daredevil, JMC’s Amazing Spider-Man, SW The Old Republic (Marvel), and The Dark Tower Omnis.oh and Batman from Loeb and Sale.
Punisher by Ennis omnis for me.
Yes. Especially the Max stuff
No Comic-Con vids this year?
Miles Morales was a better Spider-man when he was in his own universe
as the guy in the video who mentioned miles I completely agree. the lone issue where he met Peter from 616 was awesome but when he was in the ultimate universe it was so much better. Saladin Ahmeds recent run is pretty solid but the Bendis Vol 1 omni is still the best Miles omni imo
I think I agree with this. Something changed when he came to the 616.
Ultimates omnibus 1, by Hitch and Millar, i bought it a couple times for friends (that being said “Mad Bomb” by jack kirby)
Batman Loeb and Sale is excellent, but I had to swap to the deluxe hardbacks as the omnibus fell apart
Deadpool run by Daniel way - I'll die on this hill that it's the best Deadpool run in print
Prometheus Fire and Stone. It was everything I wanted from a AVP crossover. Next to Aliens Defiance, it is top tier for fans of the franchise.
and we still need that all new x-men omnibus from bendis
Fantastic Four vol. 1 by Stan and Kirby naturally, Marvel Knights Inhumans (Okay, thats a maxi-series, but whatever.) The series "Inhuman" I think had enough for an "Complete collection" if they would just finally release it. Sad how they were torn askew between the ending of "Inhuman", the "Royals" series (12 Iss. I think), and finally Cates, Death of the Inhumans. More than ever a reboot of the terrigen mists is deserving, and an Ultimate Inhumans would be an awesome way to go with that! Either that or my Aetheric Genome Exultation experimental idea.
Locke and key has an omnibus. Its an oversized hardcover of the entire set. Thick as an omni, size of an omni, just called a "compendium"
Animal Man by Morrison simp/defender here, it's worth all the praise and more, even makes it a breeze to read in the Omni.

Swamp thing by Allan Moore is probably the most long overdue.

for my best omni is spiderman by jms vol 1 I adored the hell out of it
Mine is Green Lantern by Geoff Johns Omni Vol 1
Currently reading this and enjoying it.
I only have a few omnis and havent read any because im a baby about the order im reading it

For me it was the fact a lot happens in issue not collected in the Omni. Like Batman dying for example.
Sandman/ Big Damn Sin City/ Invincible/ Gotham Central/ Preacher/ Walking Dead/ Daredevil by Bendis/ Captain America Brubaker/ Silver Surfer by Slott/ Black Hammer/ Swamp Thing by Moore and Snyder/ and Darth Vader by Gillen are some of favorites.
Swamp thing new 52 Scott snyder n soule omni was pretty dope
I really like all of my omni’s JSA by Geoff Johns 1-3 x-factor by Peter David many more
But I’m going to shout out Green arrow by Mike Greil vol 1 and 2 more people need to read it cause it’s incredible finished each omni in 4 days
I guess in the future i will say Kamandi but im still read it. For now i'll say Punisher max 1
Bro I also used to take the tri rail to Mia airport and then had to take the metro to work.
For me the best I've read is Grant Morrisons Animal Man AND Jeff Lemires Animal Man. Turned me into a huge fan of Animal Man, also two of the best creators around
Jeff Lemire's Animal Man sucked.
On the DC side, my favorite omni is JLA by Grant Morrison, probably one of the most important runs for me as a reader, others that are very close to the top include Superman by Tomasi and Gleason, Super Sons and Blackest Night.
On the Marvel side, Uncanny X-Force is my favorite Marvel run of all time, and Ultimate Spider-Man and FF by Hickman are very close
It’s funny how we can pick a #1 from each pub… but hard to pick the best out of those

uncanny xforce remender has to be up there
For me it will have to be Justice League International. Then USM and Bendis’ run on Daredevil.
Dardevil by mark waid vol 1 was my omnibus but Superman The Exile was my favorite.
Loved Superman Exiled. Grew up on Death of Supes and only recently lead this material leading up to it, in a sense.
Speedball by Ditko Compendium
I have an idea what about most anticipated omnibus that was a let down. For example you were so hyped for it and it was disappointing
X-Men by Claremont and Jim Lee volume 2
Infinity Gauntlet
Hellblazer by Garth ennis
Cause idk Constantine is just the best doesn’t need a wack ass cape to be a badass
punisher max garth ennis or xmen age of apocalypse
I think the Captain America by Brubaker vol. 1 is the best!
My top 3
Infinity gauntlet
Uncanny x-force
Than maybe ASM vol 1 or batman by jeff loeb
I think the reason a lot of people didn’t like Miles is because they killed off Peter and he basically replaced him.
Bendis Daredevil Omni. Millar Wolverine omni, and Ennis Punisher MAX
John Byrne Fantastic Four Volume 2
Doom patrol by Grant Morrison easily my favourite.
and morrisons new xmen is under appreciated
DC - Injustice
Infinite Crisis, for me
Shame marvel doesn't do absolutes which is the best format. Legion legacy was a great read if you like psychedelic stories like the Sandman and the Demon bear saga.
Too many to choose just one.
The Boys volumes 1 - 3, the tv series can’t hold a candle to them.
I don’t even consider them the same story. The show and comics have completely different plot points and theme’s.
At this point I’ve only read 2 omnis but I’d have to say Star Wars war of the bounty hunters is my fave. The other I read was house of m. The mapping just ruined it for me. The main story was excellent but the tie ins were a slog.
Uncanny x-men vol 1 the OG
daredevil by frank miller is my favorite overall.
Always cool hearing your thoughts on my and others opinions in the group with topics like this, appreciate you not grilling me about my love for Ms.Marvel bro😂 Hope you keep doing these vids cause I think its super fun for us in the fb group plus the homies on TH-cam who haven't joined the group. 🤟
Man I’ve always been one to understand everyone has different opinions and tastes. Just because they aren’t mine, doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
@@GemMintCollectibles much respect for being that chill not everyone thinks that way that's for sure lol and fr I hope you keep doing different vids like this cause these are super fun! :)
@@JoeArnold333I haven’t read the Wilson book, but I really did like the OG Ms. Marvel run (Carol Danvers).
Maybe one of these days I’ll give the Kamala Khan story a read.
@@2ndstreetmarvel tbh ive never read Carol but ive heard the Kelly Thompson run is amazing, Kamala is definitely different from Carol in like every way possible but her run from G Willow Wilson is really really great imo.
@@JoeArnold333 I have the whole KT run, but I stopped reading around issue 20 or so. I need to go back and finish it.
