Marvel Omnibus Announcement: Avengers by Jed MacKay Omnibus (plus, a reprint of Hickman Avengers!)

July 15, 2026 by krisis Leave a Comment

Avengers 2023 0001 cover by CF VillaNear Mint Condition announced a Marvel omnibus for May 2027 that sticks with Marvel’s dedication to quickly collecting runs by their hottest creators as soon as they’re completed… plus, a hotly demanded reprint for June 2027: announcing Avengers by Jed MacKay Omnibus plus a reprint of Avengers by Jonathan Hickman Omnibus Vol. 1!

These two books are the absolute peak of modern day Avengers in two different ways. If you are a fan of Avengers on film, these are the sorts of blockbuster runs that will resonate with you as as a comic book reader.

Avengers by Jed MacKay Omnibus collects the complete run of Avengers (2023). This was a familiar, back-to-basics Avengers cast with a very modern sensibility drawn from two big DC flagship teams: Justice League & The Authority.

Like the Justice League, MacKay’s Avengers spent much of this run headquartered above Earth so they could rapidly respond to incidents anywhere around the globe. And, like The Authority, this was a hyper-powerful team who was fighting for the very survival of Earth itself as they try to beat back a series of “Tribulation Events” … predicted by Kang!

I loved absolutely everything about this blockbuster run, which eventually brought Storm back into the fold as an Avenger and broke artist Farid Karami to widespread acclaim. While I appreciate street-level superheroes, I like my flagship superteams big, bold, and fighting for the very survival of the human race!

I don’t quite love absolutely everything about this omnibus, though. That’s because it should absolutely double-dip MacKay’s Blood Hunt (2024) event series in its entirety. The event was effectively a full arc of Avengers (2023), complete with the entire cast! Blood Hunt was absolutely one of the many Tribulation Events that Kang warned the team about, and this book will feel weirdly incomplete without it included.

That said, it’s still a terrific omnibus of strong modern material, including art that absolutely demands to be seen in oversize format (even if the coloring was a bit shit).

Meanwhile, Marvel is also back to print for the second time with Avengers by Jonathan Hickman Omnibus Vol. 1, just four years after a prior reprint in 2023 (which was six years after the first printing in 2017).

Marvel Omnibus Announcement: Avengers by Jason Aaron Vol. 1

June 17, 2026 by krisis Leave a Comment

Avengers (2018) #1 promotional cover artNear Mint Condition announced another Marvel omnibus for March 2027, and it’s the start of collecting a massive recent run of comics: Avengers by Jason Aaron Vol. 1!

For the past 25 years, we’ve seen Avengers comics rotate through three phases, though not always in the same order: a “classic” phase where there are lots of recognizable cast members, a “new” or “reinvention” phase where several atypical Avengers are recruited, and a “decadent” phase where it’s everyone as an Avenger to tell a massive and maybe even slightly outlandish story.

Perez & Busiek? Classic. Bendis? New, obviously! Hickman, just as obviously a reinvention.

Things got slightly less clear after Secret Wars (2015), when All-New All-Different Marvel brought us an Avengers team that felt both classic and new, thanks to it being nearly a full team of “Legacy” heroes – Sam Wilson as Cap, the female Thor, Kamala Khan as Ms. Marvel, Miles Morales as Spider-Man, Sam Alexander as Nova, and the new Unstoppable Wasp – Nadia Van Dyne.

Similarly, Jason Aaron’s run started out classic and turned decadent. The first two years of the run had a fairly standard, largely recognizable cast. Of course, there were signs of decadence – including the team living inside of a Celestial in the Arctic Circle and going to war with vampires! At the midway point the team had a classic tournament arc over who would control the Phoenix Force and fought against a rampaging Khonshu.

Avengers Omnibus Mapping | 14th Annual Tigereyes Most-Wanted Marvel Omnibus Poll

February 9, 2026 by krisis 11 Comments

Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 2026 - Avengers Omnibus Mapping - Avengers 2023 34 35 36 connecting coversOnce 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 Avengers omnibus for material that has not yet been collected comprehensively in omnibus – all of which will appear as options on the 2026 poll.

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.

Marvel gave us three Avengers omnibuses in 2026: the classic-era Avengers Vol. 6, collecting through 1979; New Avengers by Brian Bendis Vol. 3, finishing the collection of that title (but leaving us with two more books of Bendis material still to collect); and Avengers: No Surrender / No Road Home, a somewhat surprising combo of a pair of blockbuster weekly events (one starring Conan!)

While those three books come off of the poll, some new ones got added – including coverage for the now-concluded runs of Avengers (2023) by Jed MacKay, West Coast Avengers (2024) #1-10 by Gerry Duggan, and the GLAAD Award-winning Avengers Academy: Marvel’s Voices Infinity Comic (2024) by Anthony Oliveira

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 guides to Avengers from every era – from the first volume of Avengers (1963) through Avengers flagships from 2010 to Present, and everything in between.

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!

New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: Marvel Comics – May 7 2025

May 1, 2025 by krisis

Fantastic Four Fanfare (2025) #3, a Marvel Comics May 7 2025 new releaseNext week is the 19th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Marvel Comics May 7 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Marvel Comics April 30 2025 new releases.

This week in Marvel Comics: a Fantastic anthology, all-new revelations for Venom, an Annihilation reprint, the disoriented Spider-Man, Psylocke & The X-Women, digital Jeff in print, the best Deadpool Epic, Sam Wilson ends, a new Star Wars, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: This is an easy pick – Alan Davis writing or drawing anything is an instant appointment for me, so him being the launch creator for the new anthology series Fantastic Four Fanfare (2025) #1 means it’s immediately my pick of the week! However, I’m also interested to see how things develop in All-New Venom (2024) #6.

This post includes every comic out from Marvel Comics May 7 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and review every series with a new issue out this week. Plus, for every new release, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to Marvel Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!

There’s no other website on the internet that can claim that.

And now, onto Marvel Comics May 7 2025 new releases! [Read more…] about New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: Marvel Comics – May 7 2025

New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: Marvel Comics – April 23 2025

April 17, 2025 by krisis

Eddie Brock: Carnage (2025) #3, a Marvel Comics April 23 2025 new releaseNext week is the 17th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Marvel Comics April 23 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Marvel Comics April 16 2025 new releases.

This week in Marvel Comics: One World vs. Doom, Avengers of Evil, X-Men vs. 3k, Predator stalks a Spider, X-Force ends, Rhino’s heart problems, Brock vs. Bushwacker, Epic best ever X-Men reprinted, Epic Ultimate X-Men (but just a lil’ bit), the least-wanted X-Men omni of all time, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: There are no Star Wars comics out this week for a Marvel Zombie turned Marvel Hater to retreat to for my pick! What’s a confirmed hater to do? Luckily, this week actually has all of my favorite non-Ultimate Marvel books, so I have some choices! Since Avengers (2023) will be a One World Under Doom (2024) tie-in of unknown quality (and since One World kinda fell apart in issue #2), I’m going with Eddie Brock: Carnage (2025) #3, which is building an engaging horrific mystery for the unholy alliance between Eddie Brock and the Carnage symbiote! More on that below.

This post includes every comic out from Marvel Comics April 23 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and review every series with a new issue out this week. Plus, for every new release, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to Marvel Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!
