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 Marvel License omnibus that does NOT exist – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

I’ll be covering Marvel’s entire publishing history by mapping missing omnibus volumes to fill in every gap in your Marvel oversize shelf! That’s all leading to the kickoff of the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 13th Annual Secret Ballot on Near Mint Condition on April 28, 2025.

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.

If you’re not sure of what to vote for, stick around for a list of books vetted by a gang of the biggest mapping nerds on the internet with explanations from yours truly – keeper of the most-definitive guides to Marvel’s collected editions on the planet.

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.

Every Missing Marvel Star Wars Omnibus, 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 Star Wars omnibus that does NOT exist – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

There’s always money in Star Wars, and in 2025 Marvel announced four omnibuses – two in current canon (Star Wars: Doctor Aphra: Friends & Enemies & Star Wars: Crimson Reign) and two in Legends retired canon (Star Wars Legends: The Old Republic Vol. 2 & Star Wars Legends: The Rebellion Vol. 3).

While there remains an open-ended potential for omnis in current Star Wars canon, there’s a finite amount of Legends material. Ignoring the far-future “Legacy,” we need only six more Legends omnibus volumes to cover the remaining Dark Horse Comics material – plus however many we need to collect all of Clone Wars Adventures.

Every Missing Marvel UK Omnibus, Mapped | 13th Annual Tigereyes Most-Wanted Marvel Omnibus Poll

April 25, 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 Marvel UK omnibus that does NOT exist – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

For the next two weeks, I’ll be covering Marvel’s entire publishing history by mapping missing omnibus volumes to fill in every gap in your Marvel oversize shelf! That’s all leading to the kickoff of the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 13th Annual Secret Ballot on Near Mint Condition on April 28, 2025.

We have just two Marvel UK omnibuses so far – the massive Captain Britain Omnibus with all of his pre-Excalibur appearances and the subsequent Knights of Pendragon Omnibus (in which Captain Britain also appears).

For this post, we’re just going to focus on Marvel’s own Marvel UK material – and not licensed Doctor Who or Transformers material, which made up the bulk of Marvel UK original content prior to 1990. We’d only need another six omnibuses to collect this completely… but there might not be more than a few hundred people who want each one of these books!
