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 Captain America omnibus for material that has not yet been collected comprehensively in omnibus – all of which will appear as options on the 2026 poll.

That also includes omnibus volumes for Falcon, Winter Soldier, and Nomad!

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.

In 2026, Marvel announced a pair of key Captain America omnibus volumes, both of which fill critical gaps in his omnibus coverage. The first, Captain America Vol. 5, means we’re now just one book away from Captain America omnibus mapping taking us through through the 1990s! And the other, Black Widow & Captain America By Waid & Samnee Omnibus, is a clever combo that plugs a minor gap between the existing omnis for Nick Spencer and Ta-Nehisi Coates.

However, that still leaves us with some critical gaps in Cap coverage – both in his main title mapping as well as with some supporting series for both Steve Rogers and his supporting cast.

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!

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 Captain America 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.

Captain America has scored just a single 2025 omnibus announcement with Captain America by Mark Gruenwald Vol. 2 – the second of four planned volumes of Gruenwald’s decade-long run on Captain America. However, that doesn’t fully tell the story of recent Cap omnis, since he got two new books in 2024 (Captain America by Mark Gruenwald Vol. 1 and Captain America by Nick Spencer Vol. 2), plus all three of his existing classic omnis got a reprint in 2024 followed by a rebranding of Captain America by Jack Kirby as Captain America Vol. 4.

What does that mean for Captain America omnibuses? We’d still need well over a dozen books to collect all of his material in oversize hardcover, but we’re nearing complete coverage in the 80s, 00s, and 10s.

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 BrandXK! Not just help, in this case… BrandXK went off on these Cap maps to pull in so much material I hadn’t even previously considered. I truly bow down to his mapping prowess. BrandXK proudly supports The Hero Initiative, an incredible charity that helps to support comic creators in their times of need – especially with medical expenses.
