Marvel Event Omnibus Mapping: Marvel Events, 1982 – 1993

Marvel’s Contests of Champions (1982 – 2018) [1982, 1999, 2015, & No Surrender]

When it comes to Marvel’s first true Marvel event, Contest of Champions (1982), it’s hard to justify collecting it in omnibus. It’s three issues! There were no tie-ins! How exactly would that work?

I think the key to making it happen is to collect it with all of Marvel’s intergalactic contest-related stories, in the same way Secret Wars relates to all Beyonder and Battleworld-focused stories.

First, this would collect the first ever Marvel Event, Marvel Super Heroes Contest of Champions (1982) #1-3, along with subsequent supporting material from West Coast Avengers (1985) Annual 2 and Avengers (1963) Annual 16. Then, it would add Contest of Champions II (1999) #1-6 by Chris Claremont(!). Finally, it would include Contest of Champions (2015) #1-10, by Al Ewing(!).

(If we really wanted to get wild, we could add in all 16 issues of Avengers: No Surrender, which was effectively another Contest of Champions redux.)

Secret Wars: The Complete Secret Wars (1984 – 2024) [1984, 1985, “Secret Wars III”, Beyond!, 2015, Battleworld (2024)]

Similar to a complete Contest of Champions omnibus, this omnibus could gather together every existing Battleworld or Beyonder story (other than the lengthy Beyonder threads that ran throughout Hickmans’ Avengers).

This could include Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars (1984) #1-12, Secret Wars II (1985) #1-9, a “Secret Wars III” story from Fantastic Four (1961) #318-319 (likely also including #313-317 & Annual 21, per other collections), and Secret Wars (2015) #0-9.

It could also pull in Beyond! (2006) #1-6, retcon series (Deadpool’s Secret Secret Wars (2015) #1-4, and Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars: Battleworld (2024) #1-4, which all insert material into the original 1984 series), and possibly Derek Landy’s All-Out Avengers (2022) #1-5 and Avengers: Beyond (2023) #1-5, which are also Beyonder-related stories.

Infinity Trilogy Saga by Jim Starlin (1991 – 1993) [Gauntlet, War, & Crusade + its Watch & Chronicles issues]

I’m always surprised when this book doesn’t do well every year. With three MASSIVE Infinity omnibuses collecting a massive amount of tie-ins, I thought many fans would want a book that simply treats all three of Starlin’s classic “Infinity Events” as part of a single ongoing series.

I suppose the one argument against this book is that you could do this in the “Warlock and the Infinity Watch (1992 – 2004) [also includes Warlock mini-series],” since you almost have to have Crusade in that book anyway so this would only add another 17 issues. But, that’s a more complex choice to vote for, and it takes the attention off of the Infinity books since they wouldn’t be the bulk of the material.

This would collect Infinity Gauntlet (1991) #1-6, Infinity War (1992) #1-6, and Infinity Crusade (Infinity Crusade (1993) #1-6, Warlock and the Infinity Watch (1992) #18-22, and Warlock Chronicles (1993)) #1-5).

Could also include Infinity Abyss (2002) #1-6 or linking issues of Silver Surfer (1987), but the intent here is to have as few tie-ins as possible and simply present the Infinity Saga as one continuous story.

Quasar by Mark Gruenwald Vol. 2 (1992 – 1996) [AKA Star-Blast]

Starblast is the forgotten mid-90s cosmic event that crossed through Quasar, Fantastic Four, Sub-Mariner, and Secret Defenders. Maybe it’s forgotten because it mostly centered on the events at the end of the run of Quasar – a title whose hero disappeared for a long time (and has no MCU counterpart).

This would collect Quasar (1989) #32-34 and selected elements from Operation Galactic Storm; Questprobe (1984) #1-3; Marvel Fanfare (1982) #35; Quasar (1989) #35-60; the full Starblast crossover (Starblast (1994) #1, Quasar (1989) #54, Secret Defenders (1993) #11, Namor the Sub-Mariner (1990) #46-47, Fantastic Four (1961) #385, Namor the Sub-Mariner (1990) #48, Fantastic Four (1961) #386, Starblast (1994) #2, Quasar (1989) #55, Starblast (1994) #3, Quasar (1989) #56, Starblast (1994) #4); Star Masters (1995) #1-3; and Cosmic Powers Unlimited (1995) #4-5.

Marvel Event Omnibus Mapping: Marvel Events, 2000 – 2012

Maximum Security (2000 – 2001)

This is wild, but we’re not truly missing a linewide Marvel event in omnibus from Marvel Super Heroes Contest of Champions (1982) all the way to the year 2000! We’ve come so far over the 12 years of this poll!

Maximum Security (2000) is the next uncollected line-wide event. I think it’s a relatively easy sell since you can market it as “Avengers/X-Men: Maximum Security.” However, in terms of contents, it’s somewhat sparse. The actual event was only three issues and a one-shot! However, there’s a fair number of tie-ins, and there’s a chance to collect all of Avengers: Infinity (2000) here.

This could collect the lead-in series of Avengers: Infinity (2000) #1-4, the prelude issue Maximum Security: Dangerous Planet (2000) #1, the main event Maximum Security (2000) #1-3.

To that, it would add previously collected tie-ins from Captain America (1998) #36, Thor (1998) #30, Uncanny X-Men (1963) #387, Bishop: the Last X-Man (1999) #15, Iron Man (1998) #35, Avengers (1998) #35, Gambit (1999) #23, X-Men (1991) #107, and X-Men Unlimited (1993) #29.

Finally, it could gather some previously omitted minor tie-ins form Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #24, Black Panther (1998) #25, Captain Marvel (2000) #12, The Incredible Hulk (1999) #21, Marvel Knights (2000) #6, Peter Parker: Spider-Man (1999) #24, and Thunderbolts (1997) #45.

Civil War (2006 – 2007) [possibly Vol. 1 of 2]

Y’all, I am not even going to touch mapping this monstrosity of a book.

But, we can use it to explain how Marvel’s mapping job can sometimes be incredibly difficult.

The main Civil War (2006) event is 196 pages in collection.

When it was first recollected from trade, the main collection was accompanied by six hardcovers collecting every tie-in with no repeats – Civil War: Avengers (552pgs) – which includes Captain America and Iron man, Civil War: Fantastic Four (536pgs), Civil War: Front Line (432pgs), Civil War: Spider-Man (544pgs), Civil War: The Underside (504pgs), Civil War: X-Men (502pgs).

That’s 196 pages of main event plus 3070 pages of tie-ins, or 3266 pages. That would be bigger than TWO of the MASSIVE House of M Omnibus. We’re talking about two books that would clock in at over 1600 pages.

Or, maybe even three book. Because the tricky thing is deciding how to split this up. Would Marvel dare to make a “Book 1” and “Book 2” that actually split the main event exactly in half between them and had everything in reading order? We’ve never seen them attempt anything like that before!

I think the much more likely option is that there would be a main Civil War book with the most essential tie-ins, and then a “Companion” book is the less essential tie-ins. Except, there’s just no way to do that while balancing each book at exactly 1636 pages.

I strongly suspect a “main” book would want the main event (196pgs), the main conflict in Civil War: Avengers (552pgs), and the real heart of a single hero’s conflict in Civil War: Spider-Man (544pgs).

That’s 1292 pages – a HUGE omnibus. Is there anything that’s exactly 340 pages we can add to that?! I think the next most-central piece of the story is probably Civil War: Fantastic Four (536pgs), which is 200 pages too long. But, that includes She-Hulk (2005) #8-9, and Civil War: Young Avengers & Runaways (2006 #1-4, neither of which are essential. That knocks out about 100 pages – so we have to cut a further 100 pages. Would Black Panther (2004) #26-30 do the trick, just leaving the core Fantastic Four issue behind?

If so, we’ve just barely balanced this pair of books at 1636 pages each… 20 pages bigger than the massive The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl and Immortal Hulk omnibuses!

I think it’s much more likely that a main Civil War book sticks to just including the Avengers and Spider-Man material, with a pair of other books called “Civil War: The Marvel Universe” collecting the F4 and X-Men books and “Civil War: The Front Line” collecting Frontline and Underside.

And that’s just me doing 10 minutes of collection math. As you can see, the Marvel Collections department has their work cut out for them!

Secret Invasion Companion (1995 – 2023) [includes Skrull-focused event mini-series, Skrull Kill Krew, Meet the Skrulls]

We already have a Secret Invasion omnibus, so what’s this?

Mapped extraordinary BrandXK basically wanted an omnibus of “Skrulls Among Us” that would cover all of the Skrulls-focused material from the event itself plus a few Skrulls-only mini-series from before and after the event. He realized he could have cover to do that if this acted as a companion to the main Secret Invasion book and collected all of the “Secret Invasion” branded tie-ins (but none of the ongoing series tie-in.

This would collect Skrull Kill Krew (1995) #1-5; Secret Invasion: Home Invasion (2008) #1-8; Secret Invasion: Front Line (2008) #1-5; Secret Invasion: Who Do You Trust? (2008) #1; Secret Invasion: Dark Reign (2008) #1; Secret Invasion: Fantastic Four (2008) #1-3; Secret Invasion: X-Men (2008) #1-4; Skrulls! (2008) #1; Avengers: The Initiative (2007) #14-19; Skrull Kill Krew (2009) #1-5; What If?: Secret Invasion (2009) #1; Meet the Skrulls (2019) #1-5; Secret Invasion (2023) #1-5;, and material from Secret Invasion: Requiem (2008) #1, Dark Reign: New Nation (2008) #1; and Marvel Westerns: Kid Colt and the Arizona Girl (2006) #1.

Dark Reign Companion (2008 – 2010) [possibly Vol. 1 of 2]

Dark Reign wasn’t a proper central event, but the reign of Norman Osborn’s Dark Avengers with a whole ton of bannered tie-ins.

The central thrust of Dark Reign is effectively all of Dark Avengers (2009) and the mini-series for the actual Dark Avengers themselves.

So, what would this be? I’m not ready to map this in its entirety, but some it would certainly include some of a number of Dark Reign mini-series not captured in the Dark Avengers omnibus, which could include some or all of Dark Avengers: Ares #1-3 (& Ares #1-5), Dark Reign Files, Dark Reign: Elektra #1-5, Dark Reign: Fantastic Four #1-5, Dark Reign: Hawkeye #1-5, Dark Reign: Lethal Legion #1-3, Dark Reign: Made Men webcomic, Dark Reign: Mister Negative #1-3, Dark Reign: New Nation & The Cabal, Dark Reign: The Goblin Legacy, Dark Reign: The Hood #1-5, Dark Reign: The Sinister Spider-Man #1-4, Dark Reign: Young Avengers #1-5, Dark Reign: Zodiac #1-3, Dark X-Men #1-5, and Skrull Kill Krew #1-5.

Even if a Dark Avengers omnibus picks out Ares, New Nation, Cabal, and Hawkeye, that still leaves a lot of books. Plus, there were tie-in issues in almost every single Marvel title in 2009 – although they all stand a chance of being collected along with their own titles (if they haven’t been already).

Bottom line: There is plenty of fodder for this omnibus. Maybe two of this omnibus.

Siege (2010) [event + all tie-ins]

Of all of the potential remaining event omnibus volumes, a collection of Siege is the cleanest and most concise. It can fit every tie-in, and explicit issue-by-issue mapping doesn’t matter too much in this event – so Marvel’s prefered “event in the front, tie-ins in the back” model works just fine.

This would collect Siege (2010) #1-4, Siege: The Cabal (2010) #1, and tie-ins from Avengers: The Initiative (2007) #31-35, Dark Avengers (2009) #13-16. Dark Wolverine (2009) #82-84, The Mighty Avengers (2007) #35-36, New Avengers (2005) #61-64 (and Finale?), New Mutants (2009) #11, Origins of Siege (2010) #1, Sentry: Fallen Sun (2010) #1, Siege: Captain America (2010) #1 Siege: Embedded (2010) #1-4, Siege: Loki (2010) #1, Siege: Secret Warriors (2010) #1, Siege: Spider-Man (2010) #1, Siege: Storming Asgard – Heroes & Villains (2010) #1, Siege: Young Avengers (2010) #1, Thor (1966) #607-610, and Thunderbolts (1997) #141-143.

Fear Itself (2010 – 2011) [possibly Vol. 1 of 2] 

I fear it’s another big one, y’all.

The main Fear Itself event was a part of Matt Fraction’s run on Thor (and, to a lesser extent, coordinated with his run on Iron Man), so a recent Thor by Matt Fraction omnibus has already collected this main event!

There have been few Marvel Events that truly hit almost every ongoing book and every franchise like this one since Secret Wars II. Civil War II is one of the only other one that comes to mind. No one was safe, not even X-Men in their typical hermetically-sealed bubble of line continuity. And, since tie-ins tended to follow one or more of “The Worthy” villains empowered with Asgardian weapons, they all coordinate well with the main series with a distinct reading order.

Would we recollect that main series outside of the Thor omnibus, or just hurry up and get to the tie-ins?

This would contain Fear Itself (2011) #1-7, 7.1, 7.2, & 7.3, along with prologue “Book of the Skull.

That’s 11 issues to start. Then, it could include 49 issues from mini-series and one-shots! Fear Itself: Black Widow #1, Fear Itself: Deadpool #1-3, Fear Itself: The Deep #1-4, Fear Itself: FF #1, Fear Itself: Fearsome Four #1-4, Fear Itself: Fellowship of Fear #1, Fear Itself: The Home Front #1-7, Fear Itself: Hulk vs. Dracula #1-3, Fear Itself: The Monkey King #1, Fear Itself: Spider-Man #1-3, Fear Itself: Spotlight #1, Fear Itself: Uncanny X-Force #1-3, Fear Itself: Youth in Revolt #1-6, Fear Itself: The Worthy #1-8 digital series, and Fear Itself: Wolverine #1-3.

That’s one massive book that captures all of the series most-likely to be abandoned by the omnibus line. Skipping the main series doesn’t really benefit us, since it’s not like there’s only 11 issues of more content to squeeze in its place. There were many ongoing series tie-ins, some of which coordinated very closely with the event – like Cyclops and The X-Men vs. The Worthy Juggernaut in Uncanny X-Men (1963) #540-543.

In total, that includes Avengers Academy (2010) #15-20, Avengers (2010) #13-17 & New Avengers (2010) #14-16 (a crossover), Black Panther: The Man Without Fear #521-523, Ghost Rider (2011) #1-4, Heroes for Hire (2010) #9-11, Herc (2010) #3-6, Hulk (2008) #37-38, Iron Man 2.0 (2011) #5-7, The Invincible Iron Man (2008) #503-509, Journey into Mystery (2011) #622-630, The Mighty Thor (2011) #7, New Mutants (2009) #29-32, Secret Avengers (2010) #13-15, Thunderbolts (1997) #158-163, and Uncanny X-Men (1963) #540-543.

That’s another 67 issues – a whole second omnibus! Plus, there were some epilogue stories – including Fear Itself: The Fearless (2011) #1-12 (which I think belongs in a Fearless Defenders omnibus, also on the poll) and Battle Scars (2011) #1-6 (which I think belongs with a Nick Fury omnibus).

Does that mean Fear Itself would be two volumes? A main volume and a companion? Or, would it skip those ongoing series tie-ins entirely? That’s not for me to decide! If you want to see some version of this book printed, vote for it and let Marvel do some mapping for us.

Marvel Event Omnibus Mapping: Marvel Now Events, 2012 – 2015

Age of Ultron (2013 – 2015) [Event, AU tie-ins, Avengers A.I., Ultron Forever]

After several events that are hard to map, the simplicity of this one is a relief! It’s simply the main event, the tie-ins, and the subsequent Avengers A.I. (2014) series. You could also extend to the next Ultron story in Marvel Now – Ultron Forever – which risks being abandoned.

This would collect Age of Ultron (2013) #1-10 as well as all of its tie-ins: Ultron (2013) #1, Avengers Assemble 14AU -15AU , Fantastic Four 5AU , Fearless Defenders 4AU, Superior Spider -Man 6AU , Ultron 1AU , Uncanny Avenger s 8AU, Wolverine & the X-Men 27AU, and Avengers 10AI.

Then, it would add Avengers A.I. (2014) #1-12, which is an epilogue to the event, a revisitation of the event in What If? Age of Ultron (2014) #1-4 (since the event itself is a What If), and the next Ultron story – Ultron Forever (Avengers: Ultron Forever (2015) #1, New Avengers: Ultron Forever (2015) #1, & Uncanny Avengers: Ultron Forever (2015) #1).

It could also add a pair of loosely-related outcomes of the event from Guardians of the Galaxy (2013) #5-7 and Hunger (2013) #1-4, but neither have much to do with Ultron.

Infinity & Inhumanity (2013 – 2014) [combined Events + Companion]

Infinity had its own oversize hardcover and the core of it is contained in Avengers by Jonathan Hickman Vol. 1, but it’s never been collected as a standalone volume with its tie-ins. That’s not a huge book, so I think we could easily add all of the epilogue in hanos: A God Up There Listening Infinite Comic (2014) as well as the entirety of the “Inhumanity” aftermath as well as all of its tie-ins.

The core of the story is in Infinity (2013) #1-6, Avengers (2012) #12-23, New Avengers (2013) #7-12, and Infinity Infinite Comic (2013) #1-2.

To that it would add a healthy amount of tie-ins from Avengers Assemble #18-20, Captain Marvel #15-16, Fearless Defenders #10, Guardians of the Galaxy #8-9, Infinity: The Heist #1-4, Infinity: The Hunt #1-4, Mighty Avengers #1-3, Nova #8-9, Secret Avengers #10-11, Superior Spider-Man Team-Up #3-4, Thunderbolts #14-18, Wolverine and the X-Men Annual 1.

Infinity had an epilogue in Thanos: A God Up There Listening Infinite Comic (2014) #1-6.

While we’re making it an omnibus, I think there’s an argument to also add Inhumanity, which would include Inhumanity (2013) #1-2, Inhumanity: The Awakening (2013) #1-2, Avengers A.I. 1 (2013) #7, Avengers Assemble (2012) #21-23, Indestructible Hulk (2012) #17-19, Inhumanity: Superior Spider-Man (2014) #1, Iron Man (2012) #20, Mighty Avengers (2013) #4-5, New Avengers (2013) #13, and Uncanny X-Men (2013) #15.

Original Sin (2014 – 2015) [Event + Companion + Operation SIN]

This would include Original Sin (2014) #0-8, Original Sins #1-5 (plus material from Marvel Now .1), Original Sin #3.1-3.4 (AKA Hulk vs. Iron Man), Original Sin #5.1-5.5 (AKA Thor & Loki: The Tenth Realm), Original Sin: Secret Avengers Infinite Comic #1-2, Operation S.I.N.: Agent Carter #1-5, All-New Invaders #6-7, Amazing Spider-Man #4-6, Avengers #29-34, Daredevil #6-7, Deadpool #29-34, Fantastic Four #6-8, Guardians of the Galaxy #18-20, Mighty Avengers #10-12, Nova #18-20.

I suspect it would omit Uncanny X-Men #23-25, a tertiary tie-in that continued beyond those three issues.

Avengers and X-MEN: AXIS (2014 – 2015) [includes Uncanny Avengers (2015A)]

This would collect Avengers & X-Men: Axis #1-9, Axis: Revolutions #1-4, Axis Hobgoblin #1-3, Axis: Carnage #1-3, and tie-in issues of All-New X-Factor, Deadpool, Inhuman, Magneto, and Nova. Then, it would add Uncanny Avengers (2015A) #1-5, as well as possibly the Avengers: Rage of Ultron (2015) OGN also written by Rick Remender.

It could also add lead-in material from Uncanny Avengers #23-25 & Annual 1 and Magneto #9-10.

Secret Wars: Battleworld Vol. 3 (2015)

This would continue to collect the Secret Wars (2015) tie-in mini-series alphabetically starting with Old Man Logan (2015).

That would begin to collect Old Man Logan (2015) #1-5, Planet Hulk (2015) #1-5, Red Skull (2015) #1-3, Runaways (2015) #1-4, Secret Wars 2099 (2015) #1-5, Secret Wars: Agents of Atlas (2015) #1, Secret Wars: Secret Love (2015) #1, Secret Wars: Battleworld (2015) #1-4, Secret Wars Journal #1-5, Secret Wars: Secret Love (2015) #1, Secret Wars, Too (2015) #1, Siege (2015) #1-4, Spider-Island (2015) #1-5, Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows (2015) #1-5, Spider-Verse (2015) #1-5, Squadron Sinister (2015), #1-4, Star-Lord and Kitty Pryde (2015) #1-3, Thors (2015) #1-5, Ultimate End (2015), Weirdworld (2015) #1-5, Where Monsters Dwell (2015) #1-5, X-Men ’92 (2015) #1-4, X-Tinction Agenda (2015) #1-5, X-Men: Years of Future Past (2015) #1-5

Marvel Event Omnibus Mapping: Marvel Events, 2015 – Present

Civil War II (2016 – 2017) [possibly Vol. 1 of 2] 

After five years of taking it easy on us, Marvel gets back to the “every title must participate” style of event with Civil War II.

This would collect Civil War II (2016) #0-8, Free Comic Book Day 2016, Accused #1, Fallen #1, and Civil War II: The Oath #1.

Then it would add 29 issues of explicitly-branded mini-series from Civil War II: Amazing Spider-Man #1-4, Civil War II: Choosing Sides #1-6, Civil War II: Gods of War #1-4, Civil War II: Kingpin #1-4, Civil War II: Ulysses #1-3 (which collected Civil War II: Ulysses Infinite Comic #1-6), Civil War II: The Underside #1-4, and Civil War II: X-Men #1-4.

That’s already a nearly 40-issue book, so I’m not sure if it would want to add further tie-ins – but there were a ton of them! This was truly a line-wide crossover. They could be their own companion volume, though I’d suggest pulling the Bendis-penned Invincible Iron Man #7-11 (lead-in) and 12-14 (tie-ins) into the main book since they intertwined so closely with the main event.

The-ins included A-Force #8-10, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. #7-10, All-New All-Different Avengers #13-15, All-New Wolverine #10-12, Captain America: Sam Wilson #10-13, Captain America: Steve Rogers #4-6, Captain Marvel #6-10, Deadpool #14-18, Guardians of the Galaxy #11-13, International Iron Man #4, Invincible Iron Man #7-11 (lead-in) and 12-14 (tie-ins), Mockingbird #6-8, Ms. Marvel #7 (lead-in) and 8-11 (tie-ins), New Avengers #12-17, Nova #8-9. Patsy Walker A.K.A. Hellcat! #8, Power Man and Iron Fist #6-9, Rocket Raccoon and Groot #8-10, Scarlet Witch #9, Spider-Man (Miles Morales) #6-9, Spider-Man 2099 #13-16, Spider-Woman #9-11, Squadron Supreme #9-12, Thunderbolts #5, Totally Awesome Hulk #7-12. Ultimates #7 (lead-in) and 8-12 (tie-ins), Uncanny Avengers #13-14, Uncanny Inhumans #11-14, and Venom: Space Knight #11-12.

Wow! Clearly this could be a main omnibus plus a companion, just like the original Civil War. Your vote for this would be a vote for Marvel to get moving on figuring it out!

Inhumans vs. X-Men (2016 – 2017)

Inhumans vs. X-Men was a much tidier event than Civil War II thanks to the limited scope of only including tie-ins from the X-Men and Inhumans lines.

This would collect  Death of X (2016) #1-4; Inhumans Vs. X-Men (2016) #0-6; All-New X-Men (2016) #17-18; Deadpool & the Mercs for Money (2016B) #7-8; Extraordinary X-Men (2016) #17-19; Uncanny Inhumans (2015) #18-20; Uncanny X-Men (2016) #16-18.

Secret Empire (2016 – 2017) [possibly Vol. 1 of 2]

Even though Captain America by Nick Spencer Vol. 2 contains the entire core of this event, it could still spin off into an exclusive event omnibus of its own… or, would that be two?

This would begin to collect prologue event of Avengers: Standoff, itself 16 issues, from Welcome To Pleasant Hill Prologue #1, Assault On Pleasant Hill Alpha #1, Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. #3-4, Uncanny Avengers #7, All-New All-Different Avengers #7-8, New Avengers #8-10, Captain America: Sam Wilson #7-8, Uncanny Avengers #8, Illuminati #6, Howling Commandos #6, Assault On Pleasant Hill Omega #1

The main body of the event consists of 21 issues – Secret Empire (2017) #0-10, Omega, & Free Comic Book Day 2017 (Secret Empire); Secret Empire: Brave New World (2017) #1-5, Secret Empire: United (2017) #1, Secret Empire: Underground (2017) #1, and Secret Empire: Uprising (2017) #1.

To that we’d definitely add 8 further tie-in issues also written by Nick Spencer, in Captain America #25, Captain America: Sam Wilson #22-24, & Captain America: Steve Rogers #16-19. And, a lot of this event tied in very closely with The Champions, so I think we’d want to include Champions #10-11 as well.

That brings us to 21 + 8 + 2 = 31 issues, minimum – with the option of including Standoff to bring us to 47 issues. We’ve got an omnibus, baby!

Then, there are a further 39 tie-in issues. They include All-New Guardians of the Galaxy Annual 1, Amazing Spider-Man #29-31, Avengers (2017) #9-10, Deadpool #31-35, Doctor Strange #21-24, Mighty Captain Marvel #5-8, Occupy Avengers #8-9, Secret Warriors #1-5, Thunderbolts #12, U.S.Avengers #5-9, Ultimates 2 #7, Uncanny Avengers #24-25, X-Men: Blue #7-9, and X-Men: Gold #7-8.

That’s a total of 70 issues even without Standoff.

There are also a further nine aftermath issues wrapping up the event – Avengers #11, Black Bolt #8, Champions #12, Deadpool #36, Secret Warriors #6-7, U.S.Avengers #10, Uncanny Avengers #26-27 – plus 10 “Generations” one-shots. That brings our potential total issues to 89, or 105 with Standoff included.

No matter how you slice it, that’s a tremendously large event. It could be presented as a Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, or as a main book and a companion. Since the map is unclear, we just included a general entry on the poll.

Infinity Wars (2018 – 2019) [includes Countdown, Warps, & Secret Warps]

Infinity Wars was never properly collected, so it would be awesome to see the entire lead-in and event in one place along with all of the “Infinity Warps” and some epilogue material for a total of 61 issues!

First this would need to collect 17 issues of the Infinity Countdown prologue from Infinity Countdown Prime (2018) #1; Infinity Countdown (2018) #1-5; Infinity Countdown: Adam Warlock (2018) #1; Infinity Countdown: Black Widow (2018) #1; Infinity Countdown: Captain Marvel (2018) #1; Infinity Countdown: Champions (2018) #1-2; Infinity Countdown: Daredevil (2018) #1; Darkhawk (1991) #51; Infinity Countdown: Darkhawk (2018) #1-4

Then, it would collect the 21 issues of Infinity Wars and its tie-ins from Doctor Strange (2018) #3; Infinity Wars Prime (2018) #1; Infinity Wars (2018) #1-6; Thanos Legacy (2018) #1; Asgardians of the Galaxy (2018) #1-5; Infinity Wars: Sleepwalker (2018) #1-4; Infinity Wars: Fallen Guardian (2018) #1; and Infinity Wars: Infinity (2019) #1.

To that it would add 12 issues of initial “Warps” character mash-up mini-series and one-shots, including Infinity Warps: Infinity Warps (2018) #1-2; Infinity Warps: Arachknight (2018) #1-2; Infinity Warps: Ghost Panther (2018) #1-2; Infinity Warps: Iron Hammer (2018) #1-2; Infinity Warps: Soldier Supreme (2018) #1-2; Infinity Warps: Weapon Hex (2018) #1-2.

Then, we’d continue to a later 6 issues of “Secret Warps” annuals revisiting these characters, including: Secret Warps: Soldier Supreme Annual (2019) #1, Secret Warps: Weapon Hex Annual (2019) #1; Secret Warps: Ghost Panther Annual (2019) #1; Secret Warps: Arachknight Annual (2019) #1; Secret Warps: Iron Hammer Annual (2019) #1; and material from Free Comic Book Day 2018: The Amazing Spider-Man / Guardians of the Galaxy (2018) #1.

And, finally, if Marvel was feeling generous, could also include the epilogue: Wolverine: Infinity Watch (2019) #1-5.

Blood Hunt (2024)

This would collect 53 main event issues as well as a five-issue epilogue in the relaunched Blood Hunters (2024B).

However, I think there’s a very strong argument that it should include ALL OF Blade (2023) #1-10, which reestablishes Blade as a character and sets him up for his status quo in the event.

This would collect Blood Hunt (2024) #1-5, Amazing Spider-Man: Blood Hunt (2024) #1-3, Amazing Spider-Man (2022) #49, Miles Morales Spider-Man (2023) #21-22, Black Panther: Blood Hunt (2024) #1-3, Strange Academy: Blood Hunt (2024) #1-3, Hulk: Blood Hunt (2024) #1, Blood Hunters (2024A) #1-4, Dracula: Blood Hunt (2024) #1-3, Union Jack the Ripper: Blood Hunt (2024) #1-3, Midnight Sons: Blood Hunt (2024) #1-3, Werewolf by Night: Blood Hunt (2024) #1, X-Men: Blood Hunt one-shots (Jubilee (2024) #1, Magik (2024) #1, Psylocke (2024) #1, Laura Kinney the Wolverine (2024) #1), Wolverine: Blood Hunt (2024) #1-4, Avengers (2023) #14-16, Doctor Strange (2023) #15-17, Fantastic Four (2022) #21-22, Vengeance of the Moon Knight (2023) #5-7, and Venom (2021) #33-34.

It could add either or both of Blade (2023) #1-10 or Blood Hunters (2024B) #1-5.

Venom War (2024) [event + all tie-ins]

This would collect Free Comic Book Day 2024: Spider-Man/Ultimate Universe #1, Black Widow: Venomous (2024) #1, Venom War (2024) #1-5, Venom (2021) #35-39, Venom War: Daredevil (2024) #1, Venom War: Deadpool (2024) #1-3, Venom War: Carnage (2024) #1-3, Venom War: Fantastic Four (2024) #1, Venom War: It’s Jeff! (2024) #1, Venom War: Lethal Protectors (2024) #1-3, Venom War: Spider-Man (2024) #1-4, Venom War: Venomous (2024) #1-3, Venom War: Wolverine (2024) #1-3, and Venom War: Zombiotes (2024) #1-3.
