Marvel Omnibus Announcement: Marvel Team-Up Omnibus Vol. 2

June 10, 2026 by krisis Leave a Comment

Near Mint Condition announced another new Marvel omnibus coming in January 2027, and to me this one makes perfect sense: Marvel Team-Up Omnibus Vol. 2.

For those not in the know, Marvel Team-Up (1972) was essentially the original secondary Spider-Man title. Almost every issue featured Spider-Man teaming up with a different Marvel character (although Human Torch took over for Spidey a limited number of times).

That didn’t necessarily mean that every issue was a one-shot story. There were some multi-issue storylines, with guest stars tagging in and out as the team-up while the story continued.

With Marvel Team-Up Omnibus Vol. 1 out in December 2025, Marvel finally started collecting this Spider-Title in oversize format. That book covered 1972 to 1975, which put this omnibus line a full decade behind the main omni line for Amazing Spider-Man (1963).

That’s why I had this book at #22 on my 2027 Marvel Fantasy Draft Ballot. With other Spider-Title omnis converging on a point in the 80s that is very well collected, it makes sense for the next classic Spider-Man omnibus to instead be something that is under-collected.

Peter Parker – Spider-Man Omnibus Mapping | 14th Annual Tigereyes Most-Wanted Marvel Omnibus Poll

February 23, 2026 by krisis 7 Comments

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 Peter Parker Spider-Man omnibus map – including out-of-continuity titles – 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.

Mapping Spider-Man omnibuses is one of the most-massive undertakings in the Marvel Universe. Spidey has the most-popular line of omnibuses other than X-Men by any metric you’d like to use – number of releases, sales, and votes on the poll.

Spider-Man omnibuses announced for 2026 have included Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 7, Web of Spider-Man Vol. 2, Spider-Man: Brand New Day Vol. 3, Spider-Man by Zeb Wells Vol. 1, and Spider-Man by Zeb Wells Vol. 2 – plus Superior Spider-Man Returns.

That’s seven Spider-Man omnibuses in one year – and that’s just counting Marvel-616 continuity Spider-Man! However, it feels like it’s still a bit low for a year with a Spider-Man movie in it. We’ve gotta pump those numbers up.

So, how close are we to total Spider-Man coverage in omnibus? The options below get us pretty close, but at points we couldn’t map any further because of our guidance not to map more than one volume into a run where Marvel’s collection strategy is unclear. Taking into account the books we can’t credibly speculate on, I’d say we are less than 30 omnibuses away from total, line-wide coverage of every in-continuity solo Spider-Man comic.

That sounds like a lot, but at Marvel’s current pace of release it’s only 5 more years! Of course, there’s always new Spider-books to fill the schedule too, but even with Spider-Man adding 24 or more new issues a year there’s a solid chance we could reach complete coverage by the early 2030s if Marvel keeps up their pace.

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, including my Guide to Spider-Man – Peter Parker (1963 – 2018) and Guide to Spider-Man – Peter Parker (2018 – Present).

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

Next 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.

New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: Marvel Comics – April 30 2025

April 24, 2025 by krisis

Next week is the 18th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Marvel Comics April 30 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Marvel Comics April 23 2025 new releases.

This week in Marvel Comics: Ultimate Mysterio’s mystery revealed, Doom’s Division hits Japan, Earth X recollected, our biggest Jeff collection yet, TVA concludes, NYX ends, Fantastic Four counts down, a Spider-Man Modern Era Epic, and more!

Marvel has 15 comics for sale this week (not counting FCBD and giveaways) and only 3 of them are ongoing titles. If that’s not a state of emergency indicating how much trouble Marvel’s line is in, I don’t know what is!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: An easy pick for me this week, since I loved the first issue of this series so much – Doom’s Division (2025) #2! I’m happy to say that issue #1 turned out to be a favorite of the week of mine last month not just because the competition was slim (and it was) but because I loved the easy way Yoon Ha Lee communicated so much information about a new set of characters and an unfamiliar culture. I’m looking forward to more.

This post includes every comic out from Marvel Comics April 30 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

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

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

April 20, 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 Spider-Man 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.

Spider-Man omnibuses announced for 2025 have included The Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 6, Web of Spider-Man Vol. 1, Spider-Man by Michelinie & Bagley Vol. 2, Spectacular Spider-Man by DeMatteis & Buscema, Spider-Man: Gang War, Spider-Man by Joe Kelly, and Symbiote Spider-Man by Peter David.

That’s seven Spider-Man omnibuses in one year – and that’s just counting Marvel-616 continuity Spider-Man!

So, how close are we to total Spider-Man coverage in omnibus? The 26 options below get us pretty close, but at points we couldn’t map any further because of our guidance not to map more than one volume into a run where Marvel’s collection strategy is unclear. Taking into account the books we can’t credibly speculate on, I’d say we are less than 35 omnibuses away from total, line-wide coverage of every in-continuity solo Spider-Man comic.

That sounds like a lot, but at Marvel’s current pace of release it’s only five more years!

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.

Or, if you don’t care about omnibuses, just use this post to learn about Marvel’s history and find some great comics to read!

The book titles and mapping in this post were curated with the help of Steve Ellis (AKA DBZALLSTAR). Y’all, I do not know my Spider-Man publishing history the way I do with X-Men and Avengers. You do not understand the intense dread with which I approach trying to explain 80s, 90s, and early-00s Spider-Man… even in my own comic guides! It was so helpful to have a Spidey-Fan like Steve set the boundaries for what these books could be. Steve is a supporter of the charity Comic Book Legal Defense Fund (CBLDF) – which just successfully fought to have comics restored to library shelves just outside of my beloved Philly! If you love this post and have a bit of extra comics cash you can spare consider donating the CBLDF today!
