A comprehensive look at the reading order of X-men in OHC and Omnibus Format part 2

Im praying they come back in stock as well. I only own 2 omnis of x-men and ive been collecting a couple of years now. I own the Apocolypse omni and the new x-men omni. Both great to me but could use more x-men material lol.

[@MrGeo-EmitFodrol]

Apocalypse and Mr. Sinister are my favorite Xmen characters

[@tommybagley1584]

Man, I sometimes feel like the only comics fan that didn't dip out on the X-titles around the Apocalypse/Onslaught era. I was still relatively new in the collecting game, I guess. In fact, X-Cutioner's Song was the first X Crossover I followed, so I probably wasn't as burnt out by Onslaught. Plus, the fact that all of the Marvel Universe was a part of it made it even cooler to me because the previous crossovers felt isolated from the other heroes. I actually remained a solid fan of the books until Chuck Austen broke me.

[@NearMintCondition]

I hated Chuck Austen's run. Probably the worst run, but if they announce an omnibus. You bet your ass, my dumbass would be buying it!

[@allanswegard2620]

I boycotted the Wedding omnibus because it's way too expensive for what it is. But after watching you flip through, it really brought back some good memories from that time.

[@NearMintCondition]

It's definitely one of those books that I had to get for completist sake.

[@allanswegard2620]

That's what I thought but seeing you flip through it I saw several issues I loved as a kid. Maybe I'll wait a little longer and see if it gets put on sale. Hopefully it wasn't a big seller.

[@NearMintCondition]

It very well could be. I can't imagine too many people running out to get this book off the shelves.

[@NearMintCondition]

We know it's coming, we just don't know when. I really think the next omni in this era will be Apocalypse the Twelve. With a new X-cutioner's Song omnibus collecting those X-men issues that have never seen OHC format and the Shattershot storyline.

Hey, man! I'm hooked with X-men lately and I just want to thank you for this 3 part reading order. I had hard time realizing that almost everything X-men in these formats are out of print. I did some investigation on what to buy to fill up the holes because I don't want to spend 200 on the Fatal Attractions OHCfor example, but I would like to see a video, on what ppl can buy instead of these books. What are the contents of the Milestone editions and what's missing out of them, and if they have missing issues compared to the OHCs, where could we find those issues? I realized that sometimes Marvel prints out the same material, like with Fall of the Mutants, the 2 part tp contains the same, but it's not always like that. Thanks man!

[@NearMintCondition]

I'm doing an updated video on the channel next year. Including trades and epics. But, I know several books are being reprinted and we let people know on the channel.

[@marximoff]

I wonder if Onslaught shows the reading order of the comics? I was looking and every site is different. In the end is shown? And if so, could you write it here? Thanks

[@tommybagley1584]

That Operation:Zero Tolerance book is STACKED with great artists. Bachalo's final Gen X art; Mad's Uncanny; Pacheco's X-Men; Pollina on X-Force; Randy Green on Cable; Yu on Wolverine. Plus, unless they re-colored the collection, coloring by Liquid!, one of my favorite coloring houses.

They haven't recolored it. Still Liquid. Damn shame that it's one issue of MAD. We for real need a Joe Mad X-men omni. Like NOW!

[@leslieturner8276]

Hello I'm commenting about this video since I have a question about two of the Omnibuses that you mention and I need to bring you completely up to date regarding what I have purchased recently and I can't find my original comments. So first to bring you to date: 📍#BattleAngelAlita Last Order I now have all the Omnibuses and individual volumes. So have this to read when I finished the original Regarding Marvel Omnibuses, hardcover and Trade Paperbooks, I have now got the following: 📍Dark Phoenix Omnibus - I just looking to collect a classic x-men story 📍Guardians Of Galaxy Omnibus - Abnett and Lanning I have also collected the Annihilation/War of Kings run as follows (note these are new unless stated): 📍Annihilation Complete Volume 1 TPB 📍Annihilation Complete Volime 2 TPB 📍Annihilation: Conquest Omnibus - was OOP so it wasn't that cheap 📍War Of Kings : Prelude Omnibus 📍War Of Kings Omnibus - again OOP so picked up a Very Good condition copy at not too bad a price 📍War Of Kings: Aftermath Omnibus Also I have the following that are related: 📍Annihilation: Conquest Book One - Hardcover - I started going down the hardcover route because I thought I couldn't find any new copies of Annihilation: Conquest Omnibus that I could afford, of course after I decided to purchase this I did find a copy 📍Rocket Raccoon And Groot Complete Collection - cheap because of small remainder mark that doesn't affect it in any way So you can see that I have been very busy recently, to say the least! Now onto a couple of Omnibuses that you mention in this video: 📍X-men: Age of apocalypse Omnibus 📍X-men: Age of apocalypse companion Omnibus The first one is out as a second printing so still can be bought at a discount, unfortunately the second is OOP and prices are starting to rise. So how vital is the second Omnibus to the complete run/story? Is it something that needs to purchased. I could purchase for a discount the following remainder copies of the following TPB's that contain all the material in the companion apart from X-Universe 1-2: 📍X-Men: Age of apocalypse: Dawn 📍X-Men: Age of apocalypse: Twlight So my questions are should I try to get the X-Men : Age of apocalypse companion omnibus if I was looking to complete this story because it does include X-Universe? Or are the TPB's a perfectly adequate replacement even though X-Universe is contained within either of them? As always thank you for your advice...

[@NearMintCondition]

First of all, thank you so much for watching. 2nd of all, you have acquired so much stuff..where do I start? Hellz yeah! Battle Angel, I hope you end up enjoying it. The Marvel Cosmic Saga makes me so happy to see up there. Very nice. As far as Apocalypse. Age of Apocalypse omnibus is really self contained. The Companion mostly has things written after and sometimes years after the original...so it's not crucial to reading it. If you can't find it for cheap, stick with the trades if you are curious about the stories contained in there. Thank you, as always for watching and taking the time to comment.

[@leslieturner8276]

@@NearMintCondition watched your video exclusive about Omnibuses being reprinted including the Annihilation Omnibus in December 2019! Since I already have Annihilation Complete Volumes 1 and 2 TPB's do you think that it's still worthwhile purchasing the Omnibus? BTW an update of my purchasing of the Age of apocalypse Omnibus 2nd printing managed to get it from an online bookseller in the UK that I use on a regular basis at 43% discount. The companion Omnibus is going OOP so getting more expensive - managed to get a new sealed copy from USA based Ebay seller - had some credit in my PayPal account so it only cost about £17.00 - currently on the way to the UK. When I have some more time I will detail what other editions (in addition to what I have mentioned previously) I have as Graphical Novels and Manga Keep up the great work with your channel... P.S. - F.Y.I #AlitaBattleAngel 4K UHD, 3D Blu-ray and Blu-ray combination pre-order has finally gone live and there seems to be a decent set of extras as well...

[@leslieturner8276]

@@NearMintCondition just an update I purchased the following today since I could get all of them at a discount: 📍V for Vendetta 30th Anniversary: Deluxe Edition 📍X-23: The Complete Collection Volume 1 📍X-23: The Complete Collection Volume 2 Knowing my luck Marvel will soon announce that X-23 Trades are being turned into an omnibus! I did see Dark Phoenix in IMAX 3D, since I had zero expectations I was pleasantly surprised. I don't think that it's the worst X-Man film under Fox, there at least three I think are worse, but neither is it going to be the best. The original plan was that it was going to be solit into two films, which would have given time for potentially a reasonable adaptation of the classic "Dark Phoenix Saga", but instead Fox thought they could shoehorn into a single film and then they handed it over to idiot who screwed up "Last Stand". Then the ending involving a battle in space had to be changed because of "Captain Marvel", of course had it been released on the planned date this wouldn't have been a problem! Then Disney had to be involved and forced a cut of 30 minutes to the runtime, I wonder how much character development ended up on the cutting room floor? It was almost as if Disney were trying to ensure that "Dark Phoenix" would be a failure! Which they tried to do with #AlitaBattleAngel but thankfully the fans fought back to ensure that box office takings were far better than originally estimated! I'm hopeful that there will be a sequel, now waiting for 4K UHD to be released. Back to "Dark Phoenix" - I thought that Sophie Turner did as well as her could with the material that she was given and I do like her take on how she played Jean Gray under the control of the Phoenix Force. I thought the 3D was good in parts - especially the space scenes, however it's a great pity that it's not going to be released as a 3D Blu-ray. I do think that yet another adaptation of "The Dark Phoenix Saga" isn't going to anytime soon, or ever in the MCU. I'm somewhat concerned that there doesn't seem any plans to introduce the X-Men into the MCU, I hope that there isn't too much of a delay and I hope they treat it with more respect than Fox ever did! Anyway that's all for now!

[@lloydwong7852]

I remember now why I stopped reading X-Men. Age of Apocalypse was just too big to keep my interest. The year long event and every title being renamed. Marvel was essentially forcing the readers to get anything AoA in order to keep up and it was just too much for me. I was thinking I might start reading the mainline X books again after this was done but by then Onslaught was the next big event and I just didn't care anymore. Like you said getting readers to believe extraordinary things in comics is one thing but having Xavier be the traitor because of something he did to Magneto....It's like bringing back Bucky from Captain America. Once is fine but you keep killing him just to have him return and it gets to be ridiculous. I do love listening /watching your reading order videos because your love/passion for the X books shows. You clearly have an understanding of timelines. At 19:23 of the video is that Humberto Ramos doing pencils or am I just mistaken?

[@NearMintCondition]

Believe it or not that's not Ramos that is Chris Bachalo and Mark Buckingham. Yeah.... Onslaught made me leave comics for almost 10 years, but I'm back and here to stay this time around.

[@mikefleming5247]

I really enjoyed the AoA crossover at the time, but you are right that it was all getting a bit much at that point. This was only a few months after they'd done the Phalanx Covenant where every issue was double-sized I think, and this was a real strain on my money at the time. I was out not longer after AoA and didn't come back until Claremont returned.

[@InstrumentalArtistry]

Hi Omar! What is your opinion on a future omnibus collecting Hunt for Professor X, Trial of Gambit, and X-Men Blue and Gold TPBs? Do you think that this might happen?

I guess it could be like the Wedding of Cyclops of Phoenix. I just wish that it was all the same spines.

Where is Xmen 2099 ???

[@NearMintCondition]

Dood.... there hasn't been a damn collection of any 2099 title, except for Spidey and his run isn't even finished yet.

I once called Logan a flower. Thankfully, he couldn't reach my face with his pesky little claws to "carve" me. I think he said "carve" cause I couldn't quite understand what he was growling down there. I wanted to buy him a beer, but his cute angry fidgeting in the mug made the brew too foamy and he floated on the surface what with all the bubbles caught in his armhair. He got even more upset... well, as UPset as possible for him... so I gave him a ginger Barbie and I will not continue that story from here on.

You see a flower right? Beautiful poetry.

​@@NearMintCondition He went "bub" when I stepped on him.

[@deberleoffice]

I dont know what to do about the fact that every time you say x-men, I hear x-man. I love your videos, but it's driving me insane.

[@NearMintCondition]

lol I catch myself too. My damn mouth goes too quick!

[@deberleoffice]

Hahaha I tried making some videos and half the things I said, I couldn't understand when listening back to myself. You're doing great otherwise !

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you!

You can take the boy out of Kentucky, but not Kentucky out of the boy.
