Once every year, thousands of Marvel collectors from around the world gather together online to watch Near Mint Condition and vote on their most-wanted omnibus titles. That time approaches – time for the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 14th Annual Secret Ballot! This post explains every X-Men omnibus map for story material from 2001 to 2019 that has not yet been collected comprehensively in omnibus.
To be very clear, this post only deals with books with “X-Men” in the title – and only through the period directly prior to Krakoa! Stories from Krakoa and onward will continue in a post tomorrow. Other X-Teams will be in one of my upcoming posts.
As one of the organizers of the poll, I work closely with Tigereyes and a team of Mapping Minties to be sure Marvel’s entire publishing history has been mapped, with every issue fitting somewhere into an omnibus volume to fill your oversize Marvel shelf. Then, we’ll kick off the poll on Near Mint Condition on March 22, 2026.
We have a wealth of flagship X-Men omnibuses in 2026, but only two books from this 18 year period of comics… and one of them is a wish that turned into a curled monkey’s paw! We’re getting Uncanny X-Men by Kieron Gillen (although it’s one volume without Generation Hope (2010) rather than two) and X-Men: The Messiah Trilogy (which is likely going to be double dipped by four different future omnibuses).
That means we still have a lot of ground to cover when it comes to getting X-Men flagships fully collected from the start of Grant Morrison’s New X-Men (2001) through the finale of X-Men (2018) prior to House of X / Powers of X (2019).
Read this post and others in the series for a list of titles and omnibus mappings created by a group of the biggest collected edition enthusiasts on the internet. Every map is informed by Crushing Krisis comic guides and over a decade of polling data as explained by yours truly – keeper of the most-definitive guides to Marvel’s collected editions on the planet.
That includes some of the X-Men guides that were part of the original launch of Crushing Comics way back in 2010 – Guide to Uncanny X-Men (2001 – 2011), Guide to New X-Men & X-Men (2001 – 2008), Guide to Astonishing X-Men, Guide to X-Men Legacy, Guide to X-Men (2010 – 2019), Guide to New Mutants & Young X-Men.
Even if you don’t own a single omnibus, you can use this post to learn about Marvel’s history of material and find great comics to read physically or digitally!
