I just got my first X-men omnibus on Tuesday for my Birthday 😂It was Uncanny X-men volume 1 then I got the first omnibus volume of Chris Claremont and Jim Lee.

[@Milskaten]

Did you like the Claremont and Jim Lee one? It’s on my wishlist lol

[@kyronlewis6975]

@@Milskaten The Claremont and Jim Lee omnibus is beautiful. I haven’t started reading it yet but so far I think it’s worth it. It’s a few first appearances too like the first appearance of gambit if I’m not mistaken.

Thank you so much. Its been a long ride, but worth it.

[@joshehrnwald8677]

Chris Claremont's _X-Men_ is the reason why I started collecting Omnibuses. Finally. At long last. Pre-ordered the DM-cover. Cannot wait for this.

[@xXCigarXx]

Pre-orders opened at 9 am....I was supposed to be at work at 9 am....guess who was sitting in the parking lot at work refreshing the page to get my pre-order.

[@KalleVilenius]

An important book, a holy book. Definitely getting the DM cover too. Man oh man. The first three Uncanny X-Men omnis were among the first omnis I ever bought. What a time to be alive!

[@NearMintCondition]

It's coming.

Oh man ... My childhoods X-Men. The Hungarian version of 190-191 were my first ever X-Men comics and I was instantly hooked. I can't wait for this.

[@gabrielcarrasco8414]

I know people hold things like God Loves Man Kills, Dark Phoenix, and Days of Future Past, but my personal favorite was Wolverine and Kitty Pride. Can't wait to read it again.

[@oxmeatpete]

I’ve watched this over 7 times already today Omar. You could have talked even more about this and I would have eaten it up and still wanted more. I’m SO excited about this. The waiting for a little while longer until it’s in my own hands is just excruciating. 100% getting the DM cover. My brain kept going “I remember this page”, “ooh I remember this storyline” as you flipped through it. TOTAL nostalgic trip as you did this awesome overview. I’m actually emotional about this right now seeing that this is an actual physical real life reality. Please Marvel keep going on X-Men Omnis, pretty please. This is pure joy.

[@xXCigarXx]

Agreed I want a solid unbroken omni set of x titles from vol 1 to age of apocalypse.

[@oxmeatpete]

@@xXCigarXx I agree also. That would be awesome!

[@vulturetim789]

I find it amazing that you can just look at a piece of artwork and tell us what issue and/or artist. That's passion.

All hail His Grace, Uncanny X-Men of the House Omnibus, Fourth of His Name, King of the Annuals, the Crossovers, and the First Appearances, Lord of the Seven Shelves, and Protector of the Trades.

Now that's a title.

[@nikob7428]

LOVED this era and I too have been waiting it feels like forever for the next x-men omni! Quick note Omar, Paul Smith also came back for a few of those X-Men Classic covers, which was great. Awesome review!! Thanks!!

[@TaylorTalksComics]

I can’t wait for this!!! Literally reading volume 2 as you posted this vid.

[@NearMintCondition]

Its coming, brother.

[@noelnarciso5596]

Great video again, Omar! Do you know what keeps me (and I suspect everyone else here) engaged with all your content everyday? It’s not just the news you bring us, nor is it the depth and breadth of knowledge you clearly have for comics in general; it’s the PASSION you have for the books, the characters, the stories, the creators, the publishers that you feature everyday. We are all fans of comics partly because it awakens that child inside all of us and videos like this certainly do the same thing. Well done!

[@marioramirez7269]

Cant wait to add vol.4 to my shelf

[@sazmurph540]

Can't wait! Hopefully we don't have to wait another 5 years for vol 5!

[@dhmcadams662]

Aw man........I forgot about that Colossus/Juggernaut barfight :D I'm all a'giddy!!!

[@NearMintCondition]

That fight, was so epic.

[@deathtone1614]

I already have it on Pre-order(Not the direct market cover) . Been working my way through my Uncanny X-men omnis. Half way through vol 2. I love these classic stories. Now we just got to get marvel to put all other omnibus on hold and just give us the rest of Chris’s run on X-men in omnibus format. ....

[@ShwagbeartheBot]

Finallyyyyyyy, I have been waiting for this and the Inferno Omnibus!

[@xXCigarXx]

I'm super pumped,just need the gap between vol 4 and inferno.

[@ShwagbeartheBot]

@@xXCigarXx I went with the Milestones to get the gap partially covered lol

[@SawyerFamilyReviews]

Ordinarily I would be jealous of somebody getting this early... but not when its Omar. I can’t wait for mine!

[@davefuentes3542]

These issues came out during the prime of my comic book collecting. Some old guys talk about walking miles in the snow to go to school but when I was in Junior High, I walked miles every week to the closest privately owned hobby shop to get my newest MARVEL masterpieces. I think I'm going to hug this book when it finally comes in.

[@DMM9619]

Ahhh what a time to be alive, thanks for your part in this Omar you are a saint 👏👏❤️

[@JPLD]

Honestly you should upload uncut versions of all your Omni/Absolute overviews. Nothing wrong with extra content!

[@nathanielcohn9073]

Great overview, Omar. I didn’t need it to convince me I wanted this since vol 4 has been a must buy for me since it was first announced but the info is appreciated. Love seeing the Romita Jr. art especially. I’m just getting started reading Claremont X-Men for the first time, so I’m pretty stoked to have this. So, when is vol 5 coming? 😉

[@imranhusain6087]

Steve Leialoha is alive and well. You must've been thinking about Steve Lightle who, sadly, died of COVID-19 recently. You've sold me on UXM Omni #4, Omar. I only picked up the issues with art by Barry Windsor-Smith and Paul Smith back in the day, and hadn't been that excited about the rest. But this looks like a great book, with a bunch of nice extras. I'll go for the standard cover by R.B. Silva. And I'm really looking forward to Omni #5. If it follows the mapping of X-Men Masterworks Volumes 12 and 13, that volume will have a ton of Arthur Adams goodness (X-Men Annual #9, New Mutants Special Edition #1, and Longshot #1-6).

[@NearMintCondition]

I was, been a long week, my friend. I got my Steve's crossed. I don't even know how considering how different their styles are.

[@acluda8026]

That shot at the end was the stuff of dreams! Well done!

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you.

Seeing how much Omar enjoys X-Men books makes me want to get into their books more. Definitely gonna have to do that once there are more reprints of the earlier stuff

[@toeknee1505]

Man, I have been WAITING for this! And, yes, this truly deserves the unedited, treasury-size, oversize deluxe version of this video for this omnibus! Great job, Omar!

[@just23bulls]

Props on making this happen, Captain! What a beautiful sight indeed seeing all 4 UXM’s next to each other. What a great book! :) Not gonna be purchasing this, but super happy for you and everyone!

OK now it's the time that we can get our X-Men reading order video! Thanks for this video Omar!

I was already picking up the standard cover, but boy, your enthusiasm is infectious. So happy this is finally coming out! Also, if you’re feeling brave, drink every time Omar says, “but I will leave it to you”.

[@nelsoncarvalho6338]

Can’t wait for this to come in. I’ve put my Xmen reading on hold until I get this. I got the DM variant ordered for months now with my LCS. I was not Risking missing out on this. Loved the shelving part of the vid. Btw I have classic placed after uncanny omni’s bc by release date of the material It does come after. Also it’s best to read classic after reading uncanny v1-3 but that’s just what I’m doing. Finally 80s JRJR! When I actually like his art. I can’t believe the same guy drew action recently.

[@arthurwoo6082]

Congrats on getting this book and for getting us that DM cover, glad you survived the experience! :D I'm super looking forward to this book as well and even though i like the DM cover, i have to admit the standard sure is nifty decisions! Great callout on Storm and Forge i feel the exact same way in terms of their relationship they need to be together!

[@timthehandler]

I have this on order (of course) but I'm still waiting for my copy of volume 3 - Marvel omnis in particular are arriving in the UK in a trickle. I only managed to get ahold of Peter David Hulk 2 this week. Damn! I hate being patient. Take care everyone.

[@Martin_TheCollector]

YAS!!!! I'm so ready for this book. Do you know if Volume 3 (reprint) will get more copies or is it too late now??

I can’t wait! Amazing Spider-Man 2 Omnibus and this one for this month!

[@conroyjett]

For me, this represents the end of Marvel's Bronze age (the beginning of the end being the first Secret Wars mini series). I loved the big milestones stories in issues 193 and 200 as well as the crossover event in the annuals and special editions contained therein but hated the increasingly inferior obligatory annual crossover events that these spawned in years immediately afterwards. And I also loved the nearly forgotten single issue story gems that also shine brightly throughout this collection such as the brawl between Colossus and the Juggernaut.

[@freddie8354]

Definitely getting this as well as the first 3. Thanks for the great overview 👌

[@NearMintCondition]

Thank you for watching.

[@HansBoopie]

I think Marvel should make the Uncanny omnis evergreen. If any titles deserve it, it’s these!

[@Brovlawski]

I got volume 4 in the fall, and had to get vol 1-3 when they came in through a reprint. When all 3 arrived I was a little disappointed that volumes 1 & 2 had a newer spine (the font is smaller and it has a border of characters at the bottom), and vol 3 is the same as this here spine on Vol 4. I I’m tempted to hold onto those unopened and sell them when 3&4 get the updated spines. Really bothers my ocd on the shelf lol.

[@RWB7210]

Ordered the standard edition cover partly because I really like it (RB Silva!) and partly because I've been getting the other standard edition covers and wanted to keep them consistent. Can't wait for this Omnibus.

Never even saw the Variant, must have been gone while I blinked, plus that "Limit to 1x per customer" was a first to me. Vol. 5 seems like a safe bet 🤑 Anyways gj Omar and gj Marvel as well: four Volumes in and the spines still match, I am holding my breath for Vol. 5 now.

This looks like a wonderful book. I have never read any of this but been collected it in the epics. I love seeing you this passionate about a run i know you love. I am a bit like this on roger stern hobgoblin, alien symbiote the wedding period in the 80s. What epics collect this period of X-Men. I think 12 does as it includes lifedeath 2 but not sure.
