Spider-Man Omnibus Mapping for the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 12th Annual Secret Ballot

by

Until April 5, I’ll be loosely mapping missing and most-wanted Marvel omnibus volumes every day! Now that we’re through with mapping mutants, we have one major Marvel hero left to tackle: Spider-Man!

This post explains titles and potential Spider-man Omnibus Mapping for entries on the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 12th Annual Secret Ballot. You can vote right now (until 5 April 2024 @ midnight US ET) or watch our mega-length announcement stream reviewing every single voting option.

Spider-Man has a truly staggering amount of material – at points, he has half as many issues each month as the X-Men, and they’re the whole of Homo Superior! Peter Parker is just one guy!

I don’t think we achieved quite the perfect full coverage we did with our X-Men poll options, but I don’t know if any Spider-Man fan will be truly disappointed with nearly three dozen omnibus options listed below for Spider-Man’s comics – both in and out of continuity.

As for Spider-Man’s Amazing Friends (and enemies, including a particularly venomous one), see the next post!

If you’re not sure of what to vote for, stick around for my explanations. Or, if you’ve already voted, learn why the team behind the poll decided on these books and titles – including some of my mistakes and regrets as one of the editors of the options on the final poll.

Or… just find some great comics to read!

Remember: These mappings are just my suggestion of how Marvel could assemble these books. They are meant to help you decide on your votes and build your personal reading list, but your vote on the poll is NOT an endorsement of my specific map. It’s a vote in favor of Marvel creating a book with that title or covering that period.

For less than the cost of a single comic issue a month you can fuel my in-depth comics coverage, plus gain access to dozens of exclusive collecting guides & reading orders – including all of the Crushing Comics Guide to Marvel Comics.

Until April 5, I’ll be loosely mapping missing and most-wanted Marvel omnibus volumes every day! It’s the end of the road of this special marathon of MAP MY X as we map the most-popular mutant of all time – Wolverine!

Wolverine has many omnibuses to his name already, but there are still some gaps remaining in his coverage! We’d need over a dozen omnibuses to give Logan the same “every issue collected in omnibus” treatment that Deadpool has enjoyed all the way through 2016.

X-Men Solo Titles Omnibus Mapping for the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 12th Annual Secret Ballot

by

Until April 5, I’ll be loosely mapping missing and most-wanted Marvel omnibus volumes every day! It’s finally time, y’all… time to MAP MY X. This post offers maps for X-Men solo titles and character other than Wolverine, who I’ll cover in the next post.

Of course, we could speculate about a “greatest hits” style omnibus of just about every X-Men character! But, this post focuses on characters that either have at least one of their own series or a compelling arc throughout their appearances.

This post covers Bishop, Cable, Daken, Emma Frost, Gambit, Juggernaut, Magneto, Mystique, Nightcrawler, Rogue, Storm, X-Man – Nate Grey, and more!

X-Men Omnibus Mapping for the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 12th Annual Secret Ballot

Until April 5, I’ll be loosely mapping missing and most-wanted Marvel omnibus volumes every day! It’s finally time, y’all… time to MAP MY X. This post offers maps for flagship X-Men series – books with “X-Men” in the title! Then, in the following posts I’ll look at other X-Team titles and solo characters.

For this post, it’s important you understand that I don’t think all of these books are a good idea! Some of them were votes on past polls or popular comments from Near Mint Condition viewers.

Also, many of these maps are not even my idea. As Marvel has progressively (and recently) recollected 90s and 00s X-Men in paperback, they have clearly shown their plans on how they group this material. If Marvel told me how to map something, that’s the map I used! Our fanciful mappings of years past are less relevant than ever.

With those disclaimers out of the way: Are you ready to see all of the omnibuses we’d need to collect every issue of every book with “X-Men” in the title from 1963 to 2023 – as well as collecting every major run of the Age of Krakoa? Strap in, folks – it’s gonna be a long post!
