I just wanna say thank you your channel has really brought me so much happiness and I genuinely have needed it. I love hearing recommendations and reading them. You do amazing work and keep being you!
Another great video Omar. I really appreciate your depth of knowledge. From what I’ve seen of the Conan omnibus I’m hoping Marvel issues that content in either oversized hardcover editions or a series of omnibuses. The artwork deserves it. Have a great thanksgiving.
In no particular order: 1. Aquaman Johns Omnibus 2. Annihilation Omnibus 3. Secret Invasion Omnibus 4. Green Lantern Johns Omnibus vol 2 5. Avengers by Hickman Omnibus vol 1 6. Batman Morrison Omnibus vol 1 7. Fantastic Four Waid Omnibus 8. Fourth World Omnibus 9. Miles Spidey Omnibus 10. American Vampire Omnibus
I’ve been reading a million comics during this year, and constantly asking my friend’s recommendations. I have to say, this is my new go-to channel for advice haha. We should collab sometime. 😎
I'm right there with you with your favorite, Omar. That was also my first X-Men stuff! I didn't read the original Dark Phoenix saga, I was only reading the follow-up stories at first, so it gave the original Jean Grey and Phoenix Saga the quality of epic myth! Awesome stuff.
Wow. You know you made it on TH-cam when you have douche canoes disliking your video of YOUR favorite omnibus. Great List Omar. Because of your channel I have gotten so much out of comics and introduced to so many books I wouldn't have checked out.
My favorite omnibus planetary omnibus, Uncanny X-Force, X-Men by Jim Lee, minus points for binding on Doom Patrol and Batman by Snyder and American Vampire omnibus
Great list dude! Showin that Geoff Johns love! That guy is awesome! If i had to pick a top 10 it would be 1 Green Lantern by Geoff Johns. 2 Infinite Crisis 3 Blackest Night ( Told ya Johns is awesome lol 4 X-men Mutant Massacre 5 New X-men 6 Thor by Walt Simonson 7 Swamp Thing bronze age 8 Age of Apocalypse 9 Death of Superman 10 New 52 Flash
Been waiting for this video! Can't say I have 10 favorite omnies because I've only bought 10 omines so far. I'm crossing my fingers that Marvel decides to reprint Annihilation Conquet soon. The Gotham Central choice caught me by surprise.
Greetings from Spain! Another cool video, good list, but i see important absences, like Silver Surfer by Slott and the Allreds! Anyway, i am looking forward the batgirl reading order video, and waiting for more videos focusing in the DC Comics 2000 era, which in my opinion is one of the best (in the superhero genre), can’t wait to see you talking about Checkmate, Detective Comics by Rucka, Outsiders by Winnick, Teen Titans , Hawkman by Johns, Green Arrow by Smith, Meltzer & Hester...
Definitely agree with you again man on your opinions and your favourites! Gotham central is without question a great read and with Rucka and Brubaker how can you go wrong? The Doom Patrol omnibus is awesome and I was lucky enough to find it for $40 in mint condition on the FB marketplace. Just a couple that stand out to me as my favourites of my collection for one would be the New 52 Batman and Robin omnibus. To me besides Snyder’s Batman this book was excellent from beginning to end. The writing is PERFECT as Pete Tomasi is extremely underrated and he made me actually care about Damian as a character and I loved the relationship between him and Bruce. The dialogue free issue dealing with the aftermath of Damian’s death brought tears to my eyes and I don’t remember the last time a comic did that before or since. Others that are my personal favourites as they were series I had long waited to be collected would be the American Vampire Vol 1,Orion by walter simonson, and Namor by John Byrne and Jae Lee. I also agree with you on your choice of X-men as all those stories were favourites of my childhood especially mutant massacre and the outback era. I only wish marvel would collect Ann nocetti and JR jr’s Daredevil run in a omnibus or Dc would do a Suicide squad or The Question omnibus from the 80’s I would be in heaven as all of those are very close to my heart ❤️ GREAT video as always!!!!
Wouldn't have called this list at all except for your New Warriors and UXM! Looks like I should add a few to my wants list... Also, nice t-shirt. Best video game of all time.
You have to specify what kind of bad... An Omnibus can be considered bad for many reasons. IMO the worst are the ones like DC's Rebirth. Which is just a collection of 1st issues... However they can also be bad for other reasons. Like being WAY to short like Ms Marvel omnibus. Or having a really bad binding like Miles Morales omnibus.
Being a silver surfer fan i remember reading the new warriors issue which had Terrax in them! how cool is that?! (And a silver surfer appearance too) :)
My top would be: 1. Infinite crisis omnibus 2. JLA by Grant Morrison omnibus 3. Batman by Grant Morrison vol.2 omnibus 4. Aquaman by Geoff Johns 5. Hellblazer by Garth Ennis omnibus 6. Planetary omnibus 7. Batman by Grant Morrison vol.1 8. Batman road to no mans land omnibus 9. Flashpoint omnibus 10. Batman by Grant Morrison vol.3 omnibus
1st, we appreciate you for sharing your love of comics with us Minties! My collection isn't anyhere near yours, so my top ten are based on the omnis I have, and have read. *Captain America by Ed Brubaker *Daredevil by Brian Michael Bendis *Punisher Max by Garth Ennis *Thor by Dan Jurgens *Iron Man by Kurt Busiek *Weapon X The Return by Frank Tieri *Fantastic Four by John Byrne *Spider-Man by Roger Stern *Hawkman by Geoff Johns *Uncanny X-Force by Rick Remender
Thanks for this Omar! I’m getting ready to grab an omni from Amazon since I’m getting all these Amazon gift cards for my Bday/Xmas. This is helping me narrow down which one ☝🏽 to get first!
Great list, Omar! I believe I have all of these still sealed. I have not read any of them yet; time is at a premium for me but I am trying to have a ton of reading for retirement. Also, I am trying to not fall a year behind!!! LOL. I swear I'm going to catch up some day.

Amazing video. I really love "top x" videos and i'm so glad you made one! Furthermore i'm very happy that Gotham Central is high on this list. Such an incredible (and sadly underrated) omnibus. Shame that Johns Green Lantern is missing, as i know you said before that you love it. But i understand not all of them can make it into the top 10 :-)
LOL, I actually own _The Colossal Conan_ , still factory-sealed in shrinkwrap (and even still in the original cardboard box that Dark Horse included with their _Colossal_ line). Never quite had the stones to open it up (though I've read the run multiple times), and then it absolutely skyrocketed in value. Got a kick out of seeing that at the very end of the episode.
@@NearMintCondition Ha, yeah, I'm still shocked at how expensive it now is, and last year I *ALLLLLLMOST* came close to finally opening and reading it, but just couldn't bring myself to do it. Figure I could always keep it in reserve in case I ever need to raise some funds in the future (God forbid), but yeah -- I absolutely love how it looks on my bookshelf.
I only have 4 so far in this order. Devil Dinosaur Omnibus isnumber 1 because one of my early comics I read. Then fantastic four Kirby volume 1 and 2. Then the new Official Marvel Handbook omni. I prefer issues, trades or hardcovers to omnibus because I like to let stories sit and sink in instead of all at once.
No Omar....cheapgraphicnovels is not having a "Halloween sale" lol......surprising choices on your list of favorites. X-Men was a given for #1. Glad to hear you hype up the Annihilation Conquest book. Makes me glad I picked it up several month ago. I am curious about JSA and Doom Patrol. I don't think I will ever pick up any of the Conan books though. Not familiar with them at all but maybe one day I will change my mind if I read some of the material and end up liking it.
I don't own a crazy amount of omnis so here's a top 5 in no particular order: 1-Fourth World Omnibus 2-Superman Golden Age vol 1 3-Namor by John Byrne 4-Batman by Grant Morrison vol 1 5-fantastic Four by Lee and Kirby vol 2
You don't have to own a crazy amount to appreciate the books that you have on your list. I love the variety in there. That Fourth World is something I'm going through for the first time.
@@NearMintCondition Yeah, I like to think I'm pretty unique in how I can appreciate stuff from all eras. Now that I'm looking back on it, I literally have an omni from each of the 5 major comic eras in my list. Fourth World is amazing, inspiring stuff. Enjoy it.
Uncanny X-Men #168. So iconic to me that my best friend painted the cover art on canvas for me to hang it up. Without the logo and everything... Nobody knows what it means but me, and I grin at it every day.
Man I love your channel! I discovered recently because I've recently started reading all these wonderful graphic novels. Could you please recommend some original graphic novels in Spanish? (If there are any...) Saludos desde Argentina!!
Great vid Omar. Which would you recommend between the American Vampire and Lucifer Omni's? I'm a huge vertigo fan but also a huge Snyder/king/horror fan and not sure which is better having never read both. Rereading Gotham central Omni now and love your passion for it too!
My favorites: 1. X-Men by Morrison 2. Captain America by Brubaker 3. Daredevil by Miller 4. Daredevil by Miller Companion 5. Green Lantern by Johns 6. Batman by Grant Morrison 7. Fantastic Four by Lee and Kirby 8. Infinite Crisis 9. JSA by Johns, Goyer, and Robinson 10. Fourth World by Kirby These are also the only ten I own (so far).
Awesome vid I'd like to see this with absolutes and OHC I don't have a top 10 but I love uncanny x-force omni cos it's my favorite marvel run and the cable deadpool omni because it has the whole series in one book and the Howard the duck omni cos I'm just glad they made it
In no particular order -Green Lantern (G Johns) Vol 2 -Mighty Thor (Simonson) -Xmen Age of Apocalypse -War of Kings -Realm of Kings -Aquaman (G Johns) -Flash (Buccellato) -Dr Strange Sorcerer Supreme Vol 1 -Astonishing X-Men (Whedon) -Batman Omnibus by G Morrison vol 1 It was hard not saying the entire GL run and Including the WoK Road To. Also, I don’t own the Infinity Gauntlet Omni or Inf. War Omni or they might be there. Also I don’t have any of the Jim Lee xmen omni’s or they would be on the list too.
1:35 Got you Omar 😄 Nice list by the way. Astonishing X-Men will be my #1 , once I get the reprint. Right now my top 3 is probably: 1) Spider-man by Stern 2) Uncanny volume 1 (haven't read 3 yet) 3) New X-Men
1. Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man 2. Oz Omnibus 3. Ms. Marvel Vol. 1 4. Daredevil by Waid and Damned Vol. 2 5. Hawkeye by Fraction 6. Deadpool by Posehn and Duggan 7. Silver Surfer by Slott and Allred 8. Fantastic Four by John Byrne Vol. 2 9. Realm of Kings 10. Thanos Wars: Infinity Origins I'd easily change that #1 for a Question Omnibus. And yeah I only own Marvel Omnis.
This is a great video, one definitely made with a lot of heart and passion and I respect that. I have been reading a lot of manga lately, and only recently got back into comics so this list definitely helps when it comes to figuring out what I want to collect. For me, my favorite Omnibus I've experienced so far is the Geoff Johns Aquaman Omnibus. I love Aquaman. He's my second favorite superhero(Favorite is Dr. Strange) and Geoff Johns' run was amazing. The art by Ivan Reis is fantastic and the coloring is amazing. And also, it's Geoff Johns which I do love his work.
Good choices! I'm glad you included dOOM pATROL. I'm not a GRant Morrison fan but this is one series he got right. PS Could you please add a link to the Epic Editions Podcast on the listing for the video you recently did with the host? Thanks.
Conan the Barbarian by Kurt Busiek omnibus is slated for a print in December 2020. Collecting Conan: The Legend (2003) 0; Conan (2004) 1-28, 32, 39, 45, 46 & Conan: Book of Thoth (2006) 1-4
Thy Holy Omar is the doom patrol omnibus spine or binding good because this is gonna be my first Omni purchase and I don’t want my first Omni to be a book that has problems
Mine would have to be: 10. Uncanny X-Force 9. Infinite Crisis 8. Immortal Iron Fist 7. Planetary 6. Brubaker Cap vol. 1 5. JLI vol. 1 4. Hickman FF 3. 52 2. New X-Men 1. Animal Man by Morrison Honorable mentions: X-Statix, Final Crisis, Doom Patrol, Deadpool by Kelly, Simonson Thor, FF by Byrne
Glad a few people are including the Planetary Omnibus in their list. I have never read it and wasn't going to pick it up but now I am considering looking into it. The story and the art look cool
I love Authority too, well the Ellis stuff anyway.. But yeah, Planetary was one of those books that got me back into comics after a bit of a hiatus, so it holds a special place in my heart.
Hey Omar, I appreciate your love for the New Warriors, I remember buying the singles at the time. On another note, do you think that Marvel would find value in reprinting the Tomb of Dracula vol 2 along with the Morbius Omnibus next year. It has been about a decade and the two make a good pair to release. They reprinted vol 1 now its time for vol 2. Thanks.
Great vid man. Do you by any chance have the trade paperbacks of the 2017 -2018 X-Men runs? X-Men Gold, Blue, Red, Black, Jean Grey, Phoenix ResurXion, Astonishing X-Men, Generation X, Cable, etc.? The spines make quite the rainbow. Might you know the reading order? Maybe you've already done a reading order video and I suck at searching for it?
Near Mint Condition Okay big question, if you were me would you pay over cover price for the Omnibus now? Do you think there will be a reprint anytime soon! Thanks!
I agree, that Uncanny 3 is the best X omnibus. Better than the Phoenix Saga imo. My other favourite is the Jim Lee Vol 1 X-Men. I really enjoyed the deconstruction of the X-Men. I collect mostly X omnis and don't have anywhere near the amount of none X omnis that you have, so mine would lean heavily towards X ones, but I also love the first 2 Captain America omnis by Brubaker and Punisher Max Vol 1 by Ennis. I am also very much looking forward to getting Annihilation and Ultimates By Millar omnis, since I have already read both and love them both. I also read A vs X recently for the first time and even though it is total schlock, for some reason, I really enjoyed it and now hope it comes out in hardcover or omni.
I found the David Michelinie/Todd McFarlane Amazing Spiderman omnibus at one of my local LCS, and I didn't get it. It had ASM #301, the first comic I ever got as a kid, and I didn't get it. To be fair, I got Grant Morrison's New X-Men instead, and later got the third Stan Lee and Jack Kirby Thor ombibus, so I didn't come away empty handed without any gems, but I wanted that one, and because I usually see the omnibus collections sitting there for months at a time, I thought it would still be there the next time I came back, and it wasn't. Real shame, but I'll find it eventually.
My 10 Faves in no order: Sleeper Omnibus Darkseid War Omnibus JSA Omnibus 1-3 Squadron Supreme Omnibus Green Lantern by Geoff Johns Omnibus 1-3 Blackest Night Omnibus Wonder Woman by Brian Azzarello Omnibus Earth X omnibus 1&2 Final Crisis Omnibus Infinite Crisis Omnibus
I don't really have a favorites list for omnis because there's so many great ones collecting great runs. But I do love the classic omnis the most and what I mean by that is the omnis that collect the original runs of the silver age like spidey, ff, avengers, thor, what have you. It's great to have those awesome classic runs reprinted beautifully in oversized format. Hurts the wallet, but is good for the soul I always say lol. Also another thing I wanted to say is, and I know this sounds odd as hell, but you look and kinda sound like tony stark on the avengers earth's mightiest heroes cartoon which is on disney plus 😂😂. Idk what it is, but you give me that vibe lol. Great show btw
I just wanna say thank you your channel has really brought me so much happiness and I genuinely have needed it. I love hearing recommendations and reading them. You do amazing work and keep being you!
I want to take the time to say thank you to you. And hearing comments like this really pushes me to keep making content and connect with all of you!
I'm just about done reading Predator Omni vol 1. Once im done, I'll start finally read the Injustice Omni.
I'm not sure if you are aware of this but, your videos make me want to buy stuff.
I'm so sorry. :)
I’m currently reading the Dark Knights: Metal Omnibus and I must say it’s turning out to be one of the best Batman stories I’ve ever read
Hawkeye is easily my favorite, I've been re-reading it this week and it's seriously a masterpiece
That is a great comic.
Which Hawkeye
@@Whxterose8060 Probably the Matt Fraction run.
Another great video Omar. I really appreciate your depth of knowledge.
From what I’ve seen of the Conan omnibus I’m hoping Marvel issues that content in either oversized hardcover editions or a series of omnibuses. The artwork deserves it.
Have a great thanksgiving.
You as well, my friend and I hope they do make omnis out of these.
I hope this is the beginning of more "favorites" series!
If that's what you people wants, sure thing. I just never thought people would care what my favrorite books are.
Agree. Would like to see top 25. I buy based on your reviews. Great job!!
Near Mint Condition maybe some favorite ohc or absolutes? And I do think you could more than ten. This went by so quick.
@@thecomicarchive Thank you so much, seriously. I will do that from now on.
I second that request :) This was great!

Have to admit...I got a little scared for your table. A little wiggle here and there 😂 Got some heavy hitters right there!
Great work as always! 😊
That table and I have been through so much. :)
Excellent list, nice balance. That Colossal Conan is that for a reason!
It keeps me working out. :)

Appreciate all of that. Especially the Strider reference to your pup. Strider was one of my fave games from the Sega Genesis. Showing my age 😅
Oh yeah! I played it on the NES and the arcade so I'm showing my age. :)
Loved this top 10! I have three of these myself and now have ideas for some more to collect .... ;)
Thank you so much for the kind words. :)
I love going to cheap graphic novels and seeing everything that I wanna buy out of stock 👍🏽
Are you looking for out of print books or books still in print that can be ordered?
Feel your pain dude, I feel your pain
I have just started Gotham Central and I’m loving it. Good call.
I'm right there with you with your favorite, Omar. That was also my first X-Men stuff!

My favorite omnibus planetary omnibus, Uncanny X-Force, X-Men by Jim Lee, minus points for binding on Doom Patrol and Batman by Snyder and American Vampire omnibus
Great freaking list.
Indiana Jones omnibus was my first ever and because of that it will always have a special place on my shelf
I think this is my favorite video from your channel
Also heh now i know which Deadpool run to read lol
Thank you, brother. Seriously.
Great list dude! Showin that Geoff Johns love! That guy is awesome! If i had to pick a top 10 it would be

I'm very happy that you included the JSA vol.1 omni. Not enough people know how great it is.
No they don't, but they need to.
Cool dog Omar. German Shepard?
Great list and great video.

Tommorow: top 10 worst omnis 😆
HAHAHAAH, but it's Thanksgiving. :)
I would love to watch this, do it Omar please
You have to specify what kind of bad...
An Omnibus can be considered bad for many reasons.
IMO the worst are the ones like DC's Rebirth. Which is just a collection of 1st issues...
However they can also be bad for other reasons. Like being WAY to short like Ms Marvel omnibus. Or having a really bad binding like Miles Morales omnibus.
Being a silver surfer fan i remember reading the new warriors issue which had Terrax in them! how cool is that?! (And a silver surfer appearance too) :)
You have a great memory! YES!!!
Awesome! I'm glad I have some of those which are indeed super good.

I love how small DD is, one of my favorites. I appreciate you sharing your list with me.
No Omar....cheapgraphicnovels is not having a "Halloween sale" lol......surprising choices on your list of favorites. X-Men was a given for #1. Glad to hear you hype up the Annihilation Conquest book. Makes me glad I picked it up several month ago. I am curious about JSA and Doom Patrol. I don't think I will ever pick up any of the Conan books though. Not familiar with them at all but maybe one day I will change my mind if I read some of the material and end up liking it.
Noooo this is what happens when you get four hours of sleep. :) Try the Conan Epic.
Very inspiring list Omar 🖖🍀🙏
Thank you, sir. And Marvel is reprinting some of these. :)
Near Mint Condition and I am loving it 😁
I am interested in green lantern by geoff johns but omnibus too pricy. Can you recommend a single best storyline from that to buy in trades
Get the trades they are cheaper and they build on each other. For me Sinestro Corp War was as good as it got. For others it was Blackest Night.
I don't own a crazy amount of omnis so here's a top 5 in no particular order:
1-Fourth World Omnibus
2-Superman Golden Age vol 1
3-Namor by John Byrne
4-Batman by Grant Morrison vol 1
5-fantastic Four by Lee and Kirby vol 2
You don't have to own a crazy amount to appreciate the books that you have on your list. I love the variety in there. That Fourth World is something I'm going through for the first time.
@@NearMintCondition Yeah, I like to think I'm pretty unique in how I can appreciate stuff from all eras. Now that I'm looking back on it, I literally have an omni from each of the 5 major comic eras in my list.
Fourth World is amazing, inspiring stuff. Enjoy it.
DC has the right idea on making four ten-issue trades of the complete Gotham Central
Great list!
Thank you so much for watching and the kind words.
Uncanny X-Men #168. So iconic to me that my best friend painted the cover art on canvas for me to hang it up. Without the logo and everything... Nobody knows what it means but me, and I grin at it every day.
That is amazing!!! I love that. YES, I'd love to see pictures of that one day.
Man I love your channel! I discovered recently because I've recently started reading all these wonderful graphic novels. Could you please recommend some original graphic novels in Spanish? (If there are any...) Saludos desde Argentina!!
Peruano aqui. You’ve read El Etranaut no? Blacksad is great too!
Great vid Omar. Which would you recommend between the American Vampire and Lucifer Omni's? I'm a huge vertigo fan but also a huge Snyder/king/horror fan and not sure which is better having never read both. Rereading Gotham central Omni now and love your passion for it too!
My choice? I would go for Lucifer and thank you so much for the kind words.
What about JLI by DeMatteis and Giffen???? It is one of the few omnibus I own, but I think it is in the same quality level as the ones you chose
that's in my top 20 for sure.
My favorites:
1. X-Men by Morrison
2. Captain America by Brubaker
3. Daredevil by Miller
4. Daredevil by Miller Companion
5. Green Lantern by Johns
6. Batman by Grant Morrison
7. Fantastic Four by Lee and Kirby
8. Infinite Crisis
9. JSA by Johns, Goyer, and Robinson
10. Fourth World by Kirby
These are also the only ten I own (so far).
Great freaking list! And some of the best books ever!
Love the Secret of Mana shirt!
You are a man of good taste!
What kind of bookcases are those?
Hey Omar do you think Marvel will reprint volume 2 and 3 of uncanny Xmen?
They have to eventually. I’m guessing they are gonna wait till marvel starts announcing it’s x-men movies.
I really do think and just give it a little more time. I promise as soon as I can say something about a reprint, I will.
Awesome vid I'd like to see this with absolutes and OHC I don't have a top 10 but I love uncanny x-force omni cos it's my favorite marvel run and the cable deadpool omni because it has the whole series in one book and the Howard the duck omni cos I'm just glad they made it
I will keep making these. I love Gerber's Howard the Duck.
In no particular order
-Green Lantern (G Johns) Vol 2
-Mighty Thor (Simonson)
-Xmen Age of Apocalypse
-War of Kings
-Realm of Kings
-Aquaman (G Johns)
-Flash (Buccellato)
-Dr Strange Sorcerer Supreme Vol 1
-Astonishing X-Men (Whedon)
-Batman Omnibus by G Morrison vol 1
It was hard not saying the entire GL run and Including the WoK Road To. Also, I don’t own the Infinity Gauntlet Omni or Inf. War Omni or they might be there. Also I don’t have any of the Jim Lee xmen omni’s or they would be on the list too.
I know...that's what makes it tough...which volume of the omni to choose. :)
I was gonna subscribe anyway after finding your content but the name of your channel just made it that much easier lol I can relate
Thrilling Sun thank you so much for the kind words :) and welcome aboard.
I'd love to hear the Omar bio! :)
You got it.
1:35 Got you Omar 😄
Nice list by the way. Astonishing X-Men will be my #1 , once I get the reprint.
Right now my top 3 is probably:
1) Spider-man by Stern
2) Uncanny volume 1 (haven't read 3 yet)
3) New X-Men
I love this list. So much greatness.
1. Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man
2. Oz Omnibus
3. Ms. Marvel Vol. 1
4. Daredevil by Waid and Damned Vol. 2
5. Hawkeye by Fraction
6. Deadpool by Posehn and Duggan
7. Silver Surfer by Slott and Allred
8. Fantastic Four by John Byrne Vol. 2
9. Realm of Kings
10. Thanos Wars: Infinity Origins
I'd easily change that #1 for a Question Omnibus. And yeah I only own Marvel Omnis.
All Marvel except the Question. Got it.
This is a great video, one definitely made with a lot of heart and passion and I respect that. I have been reading a lot of manga lately, and only recently got back into comics so this list definitely helps when it comes to figuring out what I want to collect. For me, my favorite Omnibus I've experienced so far is the Geoff Johns Aquaman Omnibus. I love Aquaman. He's my second favorite superhero(Favorite is Dr. Strange) and Geoff Johns' run was amazing. The art by Ivan Reis is fantastic and the coloring is amazing. And also, it's Geoff Johns which I do love his work.
Thank you so much for the kind words.
@@NearMintCondition No problem. :)
Good choices! I'm glad you included dOOM pATROL. I'm not a GRant Morrison fan but this is one series he got right.
PS Could you please add a link to the Epic Editions Podcast on the listing for the video you recently did with the host? Thanks.
oh yes, let me get the link from him. Thank you for reminding me.
Beautiful content!
Thank you so much for the kind words.
Conan the Barbarian by Kurt Busiek omnibus is slated for a print in December 2020. Collecting Conan: The Legend (2003) 0; Conan (2004) 1-28, 32, 39, 45, 46 & Conan: Book of Thoth (2006) 1-4
It was this video that made that happen. :)
Thy Holy Omar is the doom patrol omnibus spine or binding good because this is gonna be my first Omni purchase and I don’t want my first Omni to be a book that has problems
It would be cool to see an updated list.
I hope you’re rite down all do these December ideas.
I'm writing :)
great video
Glad you enjoyed it
I may have missed it, but have you ever done an Avengers by Kurt Busiek retroview?! I think that’d be a lot of fun!
Mine would have to be:
10. Uncanny X-Force
9. Infinite Crisis
8. Immortal Iron Fist
7. Planetary
6. Brubaker Cap vol. 1
5. JLI vol. 1
4. Hickman FF
3. 52
2. New X-Men
1. Animal Man by Morrison
Honorable mentions: X-Statix, Final Crisis, Doom Patrol, Deadpool by Kelly, Simonson Thor, FF by Byrne
So you are man that believes Planetary > Authority. Same here. :)
Glad a few people are including the Planetary Omnibus in their list. I have never read it and wasn't going to pick it up but now I am considering looking into it. The story and the art look cool
I love Authority too, well the Ellis stuff anyway.. But yeah, Planetary was one of those books that got me back into comics after a bit of a hiatus, so it holds a special place in my heart.
A good top 10 list.
Thank you so much for your kind words.
Hey Omar, I appreciate your love for the New Warriors, I remember buying the singles at the time. On another note, do you think that Marvel would find value in reprinting the Tomb of Dracula vol 2 along with the Morbius Omnibus next year. It has been about a decade and the two make a good pair to release. They reprinted vol 1 now its time for vol 2. Thanks.
I really hope so too about the reprint since I'm waiting for an announcement to buy volume 1.
My personal favorites are Deadpool and Cable, Marvel Zombies, Monsterbus Vol. 1, Darth Vader, and JSA Volume 2-3
Great list!
That table was struggling dude 🤣
That’s why I got a new one.
@@NearMintCondition im shocked your shelves stay up at this point.
Stryder was my highlight!
he's a camera hog. :)
This is my favourite of your videos. Why no love for Daredevil?
This was so tough as it was. DD would have made top 20. :)
Great vid man. Do you by any chance have the trade paperbacks of the 2017 -2018 X-Men runs? X-Men Gold, Blue, Red, Black, Jean Grey, Phoenix ResurXion, Astonishing X-Men, Generation X, Cable, etc.? The spines make quite the rainbow. Might you know the reading order? Maybe you've already done a reading order video and I suck at searching for it?
I do have them and I haven't done a reading order. But was planning on it in 2020.
@@NearMintCondition That would be awesome!
I want to get Busiek’s Avengers but it’s way too expensive. Do you think it is better than Hickman’s Avengers run?
In my opnion, it really is.
Near Mint Condition Okay big question, if you were me would you pay over cover price for the Omnibus now? Do you think there will be a reprint anytime soon!
Thanks!
I agree, that Uncanny 3 is the best X omnibus. Better than the Phoenix Saga imo. My other favourite is the Jim Lee Vol 1 X-Men. I really enjoyed the deconstruction of the X-Men.
I collect mostly X omnis and don't have anywhere near the amount of none X omnis that you have, so mine would lean heavily towards X ones, but I also love the first 2 Captain America omnis by Brubaker and Punisher Max Vol 1 by Ennis. I am also very much looking forward to getting Annihilation and Ultimates By Millar omnis, since I have already read both and love them both. I also read A vs X recently for the first time and even though it is total schlock, for some reason, I really enjoyed it and now hope it comes out in hardcover or omni.
Those Brubaker omnis are great as well as the Punisher Max omnibus.
I found the David Michelinie/Todd McFarlane Amazing Spiderman omnibus at one of my local LCS, and I didn't get it. It had ASM #301, the first comic I ever got as a kid, and I didn't get it. To be fair, I got Grant Morrison's New X-Men instead, and later got the third Stan Lee and Jack Kirby Thor ombibus, so I didn't come away empty handed without any gems, but I wanted that one, and because I usually see the omnibus collections sitting there for months at a time, I thought it would still be there the next time I came back, and it wasn't. Real shame, but I'll find it eventually.
You do a video like that before a GBlack Fridayyyyyyy....!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so cruel. now i'm online looking for some of these titles.
I knew I should have waited until next week!! My bad.
My 10 Faves in no order:
Sleeper Omnibus
Darkseid War Omnibus
JSA Omnibus 1-3
Squadron Supreme Omnibus
Green Lantern by Geoff Johns Omnibus 1-3
Blackest Night Omnibus
Wonder Woman by Brian Azzarello Omnibus
Earth X omnibus 1&2
Final Crisis Omnibus
Infinite Crisis Omnibus
Love your list. It was tough for me to include just one volume of the JSA run.
Would love to get this epic New Warriors omni with the announcement of the new series lighting up social media lol.
The classic New Warriors is best.
I was looking at a video about Superboy Prime. Is there a omnibus about him?
Daredevil by Frank Miller and Klaus Jensen Omnibus is my number 1 favorite Omnibus!
That poor table 😂
It's had it's fair share of freaking weight on it. :)
I go with you suggestions.
Do you know if there are any plans for Infinite Crisis to be re-printed?
There are. In 2020. :)
Thanks! I thought I had heard such a rumor. :)
Here’s a video I like the re-watch once a year or so.
Great list also love the shirt... such a great game. I'd play the hell out of secret of mana or chrono trigger new platform re-release!
You are a man of good taste.
Geoff John’s JSA run is sooooo good!
I agree.
I don't really have a favorites list for omnis because there's so many great ones collecting great runs. But I do love the classic omnis the most and what I mean by that is the omnis that collect the original runs of the silver age like spidey, ff, avengers, thor, what have you. It's great to have those awesome classic runs reprinted beautifully in oversized format. Hurts the wallet, but is good for the soul I always say lol. Also another thing I wanted to say is, and I know this sounds odd as hell, but you look and kinda sound like tony stark on the avengers earth's mightiest heroes cartoon which is on disney plus 😂😂. Idk what it is, but you give me that vibe lol. Great show btw
I'm going to watch that show now. Thank you so much for the kind words, brother.
