With Marvel printing omnibus volumes like Godzilla, ROM, and Micronauts in the past year, it seems clear that all bets are off in terms of what past licenses they’re willing to pursue for reprint in omnibus form.

This post addresses comics that Marvel originally published but does not own the full intellectual property rights to at this time. Could Marvel republish them? Anything is possible with enough demand from fans.

Every Missing Marvel 20th Century FOX Omnibus (+ Indiana Jones), Mapped | 13th Annual Tigereyes Most-Wanted Marvel Omnibus Poll

April 26, 2025 by krisis

It’s the most wonderful time of the year for Marvel Omnibus fans – time for the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 13th Annual Secret Ballot! This post explains every 20th Century FOX omnibus that does NOT exist – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

Marvel has already taken advantage of their ability to reprint classic FOX properties like Alien, Predator, and Planet of the Apes. But, there are so many more comics that they potentially have the ability to reprint in the wake of Disney’s 2019 acquisition of 20th Century Fox.

Not only are there more comics from all three of those franchises that Marvel might now be able to print, but also popular comics from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (& Angel), The Simpsons, and The X-Files!

Plus, while Indiana Jones is actually a LucasFilm property, we’ve included it here as well.
