Every Missing Marvel Solo Hero Omnibus from A to G, Mapped – Ant-Man, Black Panther, Captain Marvel & more! | 13th Annual Tigereyes Most-Wanted Marvel Omnibus Poll

April 24, 2025 by krisis 1 Comment

Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 2025 Black Panther Omnibus MappingIt’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 Solo Hero omnibus that does NOT exist from A to G (that we haven’t mentioned yet) – 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.

This is the first of three solo hero posts covering heroes with four or fewer omnibuses of material to collect, including America Chavez, Ant-Man, Black Cat, Black Knight, Black Panther, Black Widow, Captain Marvel, Cloak & Dagger, Crystar, Darkhawk, Daughters of the Dragon, Deathlok, Doctor Voodoo, Echo, Elsa Bloodstone, Frankenstein, and Galactus!

Note that Captain America (includes Falcon), Deadpool, Daredevil & Elektra, Doctor Strange, Fantastic Four & Silver Surfer (includes Doctor Doom), Ghost Rider & The Midnight Sons (includes Blade & Darkhold), Thor & Asgard (includes Angela & Beta Ray Bill), Venom & Carnage, Wolverine (includes Akiro / Daken), and X-Men Solo Characters already have their own posts.

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 the incredible BrandXK! BrandXK proudly supports The Hero Initiative, an incredible charity that helps to support comic creators in their times of need – especially with medical expenses.

Remember: These titles and mappings are a suggestion of how Marvel could assemble these books. They are meant to help you decide on your votes on the Tigereyes poll. Your vote on the poll is a vote in favor of Marvel creating a book with that title or covering that period, NOT an endorsement of a specific map. Maps are presented as a proof of concept and to help you build your personal reading list.

Marvel Solo Heroes: Ms. America Chavez Omnibus Mapping

America Chavez Vol. 1 (2011 & on)

This would collect Vengeance (2011) #1-6; America (2017) #1-12; America Chavez: Made in the U.S.A (2021) #1-5; and material from Marvel Voices: Pride (2021), Marvel Voices: Communidades (2021), Marvel Voices: Community (2022), and Marvel Voices Infinity Comic (2022). It could also add some key issues from Young Avengers (2013), Ultimates (2015), Ultimates 2 (2016), and West Coast Avengers (2018).

Marvel Solo Heroes: Ant-Man Omnibus Mapping

See Guide to Ant-Man for more details.

Ant-Man / Giant-Man Classic Omnibus (1962 – 1979)

From one perspective, this would collect all of the Ant-Man / Giant-Man Marvel Masterworks material, maybe even stretching farther into the 80s for more Scott Lang material.

From another, it ought to only be a Hank Pym & Bill Foster omnibus and end with the debut of Scott Lang as Ant-Man, since that could merit its own omnibus.

This could be either book based on the title, it’s up to you. However, if we ditch the Scott Lang material, we could add in some key Avengers (1963) material for Hank Pym.

This would collect Hank Pym’s stories from Tales to Astonish (1959) #27-69; Hank Pym in Marvel Feature (1971) #4-10 and Iron Man (1968) #44 (backup story); Bill Foster in Power Man (1974) #24-25, Black Goliath (1976) #1-5, & Champions (1975) #11-13; and Scott Lang in Marvel Premiere (1972) #47-48.

If it had a Pym-only scope, it would collect additional material from Avengers (1963). If it had an “all Ant-Men” scope, it would continue to more Scott Lang material.

Ant-Man: Scott Lang, The Early Years (1979 – 1998)

This would collect all of Scott Lang’s adventures prior to Marvel Now.

This would collect a minimum of Marvel Premiere (1972) #47-48, Iron Man (1968) #125 (excerpts), 131-133, & 151, Avengers (1963) #181 (excerpts), 195-196, & 223, Marvel Team-Up (1972) #103, and Marvel Two-In-One (1974) #87.

To that it would add other appearances including Avengers (1963) #275-277, Marvel Comics Presents (1988) #11 (3rd story), Amazing Spider-Man (1963) Annual 24 (1st and 4th stories), Iron Man (1968) Annual 12 (5th story), Marvel Comics Presents (1988) #81 (3rd story), 132 (2nd story), and 137 (2nd story), subplot pages from his time as a supporting character in Iron man, and selections from his time in Fantastic Four and Heroes for Hire.

Marvel Universe by Robert Kirkman: Marvel Team-Up & Irredeemable Ant-Man (2004 & on) [also Sleepwalker, Jubilee, Marvel Zombies, etc]

This would collect the entire run of Eric O’Grady in The Irredeemable Ant-Man (2006) #1-12

Ant-Man: Scott Lang by Nick Spencer (2015 – 2022)

While you could be voting for this with only the Spencer material in mind, it could actually cover several more years of Lang’s solo material. Specifically, it could add the entirety of another paperback, Ant-Man: The Saga of Scott Lang, which includes another 300+ pages of his subsequent adventures

This would collect Ant-Man (2015) #1-5 & Annual 1; Ant-Man: Last Days (2015) #1; The Astonishing Ant-Man (2015) #1-13; Guardians Team-Up (2015) #7; A Year of Marvels: March Infinite Comic (2016) #1; Ant-Man & the Wasp: Living Legends (2018) #1; Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018) #1-5; War of the Realms: Giant-Man (2019) #1-3; and Ant-Man (2020) #1-5.

Marvel Solo Heroes: Black Cat Omnibus Mapping

Black Cat – The Early Years (1979 – 2011)

A vote for this volume is to begin collecting all of Felicia Hardy’s significant Black Cat stories from her debut onward. I reviewed every one of these issues for my Guide to Black Cat, which explains her appearance in each of them.

This could begin to collect Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #194-195, 204-205, & 226-227, Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man (1976) #75 & 85-92, Annual 4 (2nd story), 98-100, 117 & 119, Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #341-343, Web of Spider-Man (1985) #80, Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #370, Web of Spider-Man (1985) Annual 8 (3rd story), sub-plot pages from Maximum Carnage, Spectacular Spider-Man (1976) #205-206, Web of Spider-Man (1985) Annual 10 (3rd story), Felicia Hardy: The Black Cat (1994) #1-4, Marvel Knights Spider-Man (2004) #4, Spider-Man Unlimited (2004) #14 (1st story), Claws (2006) #1-3, Sensational Spider-Man (2006) #30 & 34, Marvel Divas (2009) #1-4, Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #606-607, Amazing Spider-Man Presents: Black Cat (2010) #1-4, Web of Spider-Man (2009) #11-12, and Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #648-651.

That’s 55 issues, but a few of them are back-up stories, so it is a perfect omnibus size!

Marvel Solo Heroes: Black Knight Omnibus Mapping

Black Knight: Dane Whitman (1967 – 2022)

Black Knight makes nearly 200 comic appearances just on the way to the Leather Jacket era of Avengers! However, there are some obvious picks in that material, including his earliest Avengers stories, his run in the UK Hulk Comic (which is already in the Captain Britain omnibus, but is Black Knight’s story), portions of Stern Avengers, Black Knight (1990) #1-4, and stories from Marvel Fanfare, Avengers Spotlight, and Marvel Comics Presents.

This would begin to collect Avengers (1963) #47, Marvel Super-Heroes (1967) #17; Doctor Strange (1968) #178; Hulk Comics UK (1979) #1, 3-9, 11-19, 21-30, 42-55, 57-63; Doctor Strange (1974) #68-69; Black Knight (1990) #1-4; Avengers Spotlight (1989) #39; Black Knight: Exodus (1996) #1; Black Knight (2016) #1-5; King in Black: Black Knight (2021) #1; Black Knight: Curse Of The Ebony Blade (2021) #1-5; Death of Doctor Strange: X-Men/Black Knight (2022) #1; and material from material from Avengers (1963), Solo Avengers (1987) #4, Marvel Super-Heroes (1990) #4, Marvel Fanfare (1982) #52-54, Marvel Comics Presents (1988) #73, Avengers Annual (1967) 21, and Original Sins (2014) #2.

Marvel Solo Heroes: Black Panther Omnibus Mapping

Thanks to this year’s release of Black Panther by Reginald Hudlin Vol. 1, we are now just three Black Panther omnibuses away from having his character completely covered in oversize collections! See the Guide to Black Panther for more details.

Black Panther: The Early Years Vol. 2 (1977 – 1996) [AKA Panther’s Quest or by Don McGregor; fills gap to Priest]

This would collect Black Panther (1977) #1-15, Marvel Premiere (1972) #51-53, material from Marvel Team-Up (1972) #100, Black Panther (1988) #1-4, Black Panther: Panther’s Prey (1991) #1-4, the complete serialized “Panther’s Quest” story from Marvel Comics Presents (1988) #13-37, and material from Solo Avengers (1987) #19; Marvel Super Heroes (1990) #1; Marvel Fanfare (1982) #60; Fantastic Four Unlimited (1993) #1, and Marvel Comics Presents (1988) #148.

To that previously material previously collected in his Masterworks and Epic lines, we would add the “Vibranium Vendetta” annual crossover (Amazing Spider-Man (1963) Annual 25, Spectacular Spider-Man (1976) Annual 11, and Web of Spider-Man (1985) Annual 7) and his guest arc in Excalibur (1988) #59-60.

Black Panther by Maberry & Liss (2009 – 2012)

This would collect Black Panther (2009) #7-12 (starring Shuri), Doomwar (2010) #1-6, The Man Without Fear (2010) #513-523 & The Most Dangerous Man Alive (2010) #523.1 & 524-529, Klaws of the Panther (2010) #1-4, X:Men: Worlds Apart (2009) #1-4, and material from Age of Heroes (2010) #4.

Black Panther by John Ridley & Eve Ewing (2021 – 2024)

This would collect three different Panther series from three different writers that actually do pair well and would bring us through the modern day. Note that we haven’t included Black Panther: Blood Hunt (2024) here since it is so inextricably tied into that event.

This would collect Black Panther (2021) #1-15, Wakanda (2022) #1-5, Marvel’s Voices: Wakanda Forever (2023) #1, and Black Panther (2023) #1-10.

Marvel Solo Heroes: Black Widow Omnibus Mapping

Black Widow: The Modern Years Vol. 1 (1999 & on)

Last year, Omar & I were adamant that breaking this run up into barely-omnibus-sized components like “Marvel Knights,” “by Nathan Edmonson,” and “by Kelly Thompson” means it will never accumulate enough votes for a strong showing on the pol.

It turns out we were vindicated by it hitting the Top 60 last year! Woo-hoo!

For the record, there’s too much material to get this done in one or maybe even in two volumes. It’s more than 100 issues of Black Widow, even if we’re not counting any significant guest turns or Marvel Knights team material. See Guide to Black Widow for more details.

This would begin to collect Black Widow (1999) #1-3, Black Widow (2001) #1-3, optionally Yelena Belova in Black Widow (2002) #1-3 [AKA “Pale Little Spider”], Black Widow (2004) #1-6, Black Widow: The Things They Say About Her (2005) #1-6, Black Widow: Deadly Origin (2010) #1-4, Black Widow (2010) #1-8, Widowmaker (2010) #1-4, Captain America & Black Widow (2012) #636-640, Black Widow (2014) #1-20, Black Widow (2016) #1-12, Tales of Suspense (2017) #100-104, Black Widow (2019) #1-6, The Web of Black Widow (2019) #1-5, Black Widow (2020) #1-15 by Kelly Thompson & Elena Casagrande, Black Widow: Widow’s Sting (2020) #1, Black Widow & Hawkeye (2024) #1-4, Black Widow: Venomous (2024) #1, & Venom War: Venomous (2024) #1-3

A first omnibus of that might collect Black Widow (1999) #1-3; Black Widow (2001) #1-3; Black Widow (2002) #1-3; Black Widow (2004) #1-6; Black Widow: The Things They Say About Her (2005) #1-6; Black Widow: Deadly Origin (2009) #1-4; Black Widow (2010) #1-8; Widowmaker (2010) #1-4; Captain America & Black Widow (2012) #636-640; and material from Avengers (1998) #32-34, Thunderbolts (1997) #43-44, and Marvel Knights Double-Shot (2002) #4.

Then a second volume would effectively wind up as “Black Widow by Edmonson & Noto and Thompson & Casagrande.”

Marvel Solo Heroes: Captain Marvel Omnibus Mapping

We have incredible Captain Marvel omnibus coverage at this point, including the forthcoming The Death Of Captain Marvel to wrap up the original Captain’s Bronze Age issues, an outstanding and long-awaited Captain Marvel: Genis-Vell by Peter David collecting two lengthy series, plus Carol Danvers as Captain Marvel collected by her two major authors – Kelly Sue DeConnick and Kelly Thompson. See Guide to Captain Marvel for more information

What’s left to collect? Just two more omnibuses! Let’s goooooo!

Captain Marvel: Carol Danvers – The Ms. Marvel Years (2005 – 2010) [AKA by Brian Reed]

This book is right on the borderline of fitting into just one volume, so we’re keeping it that way on the poll and letting Marvel decide if it can be done once you vote it into the Top 60.

If this was just one volume, it would collect Ms. Marvel (2006) #1-50 & Annual 1; Giant-Size Ms. Marvel (2006) #1; Ms. Marvel Special 2007) #1; Ms. Marvel Special: Storyteller (2008) #1, and Siege: Spider-Man (2010) #1.

If we think about it as two volumes…

Volume 1 would collect Giant-Size Ms. Marvel (2006) #1; Ms. Marvel (2006) #1-24 & Annual 1, Ms. Marvel Special *2007) #1, and Mighty Avengers (2007) #1-11. It’s her only time leading the Avengers until 2023, and it interacts with Reed’s run early on, so I think it’d be worth it.

Volume 2 would collect Captain Marvel (2008) #1-5; Ms. Marvel (2006) #25-50, Ms. Marvel Special: Storyteller (2008) #1; Dark Avengers (2009) #1, New Avengers Annual (2010)3, Siege: Spider-Man (2010) #1, Secret Avengers (2010) #26-28, and She-Hulk: Sensational (2010)# 1 (2nd story). Those additions would cover the gap between the end of her run in 2010 and her revamp in 2012.

Captain Marvel: Carol Danvers, The Mighty Captain Marvel (2016 – 2019) [includes Margaret Stohl]

This would be a straight-forward collection of all of Carol Danvers’ material between the end of Kelly Sue DeConnick’s run in 2015 and the start of Kelly Thompson’s run in 2019.

Thiscould collect Captain Marvel (2016) #1-10; A-Force (2016) #1-10; Mighty Captain Marvel (2016) #1-9 & 125-129; Generations: Captain Marvel & Captain Mar-Vell (2017) #1; Generations: Ms. Marvel & Ms. Marvel AKA The Marvels (2017) #1; Infinity Countdown: Captain Marvel (2018) #1; The Life of Captain Marvel (2018) #1-5; Captain Marvel: Braver & Mightier (2019) #1; Marvel Team-Up (2019) #4-6; plus, material from Civil War II (2016).

Marvel Solo Heroes: Cloak & Dagger Omnibus Mapping

Cloak & Dagger Vol. 3 (1991 – 2024) [AKA “Us Against the World”]

I can’t take credit for this one – this map is 99% a BrandXK jam! See my Guide to Cloak & Dagger for more context.

This would collect Marvel Comics Presents (1988) #119-122, 133; New Warriors (1990) #32-34, Annual #3; Runaways (2003) #11-12; Runaways (2005) #9-12; Cloak and Dagger (2010) #1; Spider-Island: Cloak and Dagger (2011) #1-3; Amazing Spider-Man (2015) #6-8; Marvel Digital Original: Cloak and Dagger: Shades of Grey (2018) #1-3; Cloak and Dagger: Negative Exposure (2018) #1-3; King In Black: Planet of the Symbiotes (2021) #3; Blood Hunters (2024A) #1-5 (C-Stories); Blood Hunters (2024B) #1-5; and material from Strange Tales: Dark Corners (1998) #1; Marvel Knights Double Shot (2002) #3; Dark X-Men: The Beginning (2009) #2; Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #663; Amazing Spider-Man Annual (2016) #1; plus relevant subplot pages from the Maximum Carnage crossover.

Marvel Solo Heroes: Crystar Omnibus Mapping

Crystar, Crystal Warrior: The Saga (1983 – 1984)

This would collect Crystar (1983) #1-11.

Marvel Solo Heroes: Ms. America Omnibus Mapping

See my Guide to Darkhawk for more details!

Darkhawk (1991 – 1995)

This would collect Darkhawk (1991) #1-50 & Annual #1-3, material from “Assault on Armor City” (continuing from his Annual 1 to Avengers West Coast (1989) Annual 7 and Iron Man (1968) Annual 13), Sleepwalker (1991) #17, and Secret Defenders (1993) #1-3.

However, it could add any of New Warriors (1990) #14; material from Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #353-354 & 357-358; and Amazing Spider-Man: Friends & Enemies (1995) #1-4. He also stars significantly in New Warriors, but we’ll need to leave that to the existing New Warriors omnibuses.

Marvel Solo Heroes: Daughter of the Dragon Omnibus Mapping

Daughters of the Dragon: Misty Knight & Colleen Wing (1977 – 2006)

This is one of our few “just trust us” books on the poll this year. We missed it last year, so the title is here this year, but we didn’t get a chance to fully map all of this pair’s appearances from their 1977 debut to their Daughters of the Dragon series in 2006 before Misty headlines Heroes for Hire.

Marvel Solo Heroes: Deathlok Omnibus Mapping

See my Guide to Deathlok for more on how the many iterations of Deathlok have been collected over the years.

Deathlok Classic Omnibus (1974 – 1985)

I go back and forth about if we goofed by including this entry on the poll. Next year you might see it merged into the next book.

This material is under 400 pages with nothing else to add. Meanwhile, the material in the next book is a confirmed 602 pages plus another estimated 760 pages.

That puts us an an awkward total of just over 1700 pages, which is too big for an omnibus. We might be able to trim out 10 issues of guest appearances, but it’s still a too-huge book.

Yet, this is almost too small to be an omnibus on its own! There’s just no great answer to this dilemma other than combining them for voting purposes and then letting Marvel split them into Volume 1 and Volume 2 if they ever happen.

This would collect include everything from Deathlok’s single Masterwork volume – Deathlok stories from Astonishing Tales #25-28 & 30-36, Marvel Team-Up #46, Marvel Spotlight #33, Marvel Two-In-One #27 & 54, and Captain America #286-288. To that we’d add Marvel Fanfare (1982) #4 (2nd story) and a pin-up from Marvel Fanfare (1982) #23… not much, but that’s all there is!

Deathlok: Michael Collins (1990 – 1995) [AKA by Dwayne McDuffie]

Here’s we come to the problem with splitting the Deathlok material in two – if we do, then the half of this book that gets orphaned is a half that’s already been orphaned by his trade paperback line, putting us even farther away from ever seeing it collected!

I think this material has more of a chance to exist if it releases all as one volume.

This would collect Deathlok (1990) #1-4; Marvel Comics Presents (1988) #62; Deathlok (1991) #1-34, Annual #1-2; Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D (1989) #30-31; Daredevil (1964) Annual 8; Silver Sable & the Wild Pack (1992) #6-7; Iron Man (1968) #301; Secret Defenders (1993) #22-25, and Spider-Man: The Power of Terror (1995) #1-4.

M-Tech: X-51, Deathlok, & Warlock (1998 – 2000)

A different version of Deathlok was part of the brief M-Tech line that spun out of an X-Men crossover.

This would collect Cable (1993) #59-62 (and material from #58); Uncanny X-Men (1963) #371; X-Men (1991) #91 & Annual ’99; Deathlok (1999) #1-11; Warlock (1999) #1-9; and X-51 (1999) #1-12.

Deathlok: The Modern Years (2009 – 2024)

This would collect Wolverine: Weapon X (2009) #11-15; Deathlok (2010) #1-7 AKA Deathlok: The Demolisher; Uncanny X-Force (2010) #5-10; Original Sins (2014) #1; Deathlok (2014) #1-10; possibly all of All-New, All-Different Point One (2015) #1 & Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (2016) #1-8; and Deathlok 50th Anniversary Special #1 (2024) #1.

That’s a very reasonably-sized omnibus, but we could optionally add Deathlok (1999) #1-11; material from Avengers Forever (1998) #12 (D-II); Beyond! (2006) #1-6 (D-IV); Fantastic Four (1961) #544-546; Black Panther (2005) #26-27 (D-IV); Spider-Man Family (2007) #3 (D-I);

Marvel Solo Heroes: Doctor Voodoo Omnibus Mapping

Doctor Voodoo: Avenger of the Supernatural (1973 – 2010)

This would begin by collecting the contents of the Brother Voodoo Masterworks, which were Strange Tales #169-173, Marvel Team-Up #24, Werewolf by Night #39-41, Marvel Two-in-One #41, Doctor Strange #48, Moon Knight #21, and material from Tales of the Zombie #6 & 10, Tomb of Dracula #34-37, Werewolf by Night #38, Marvel Super-Heroes #1, and Doctor Strange: Sorcerer Supreme #16-17 & 20.

It would continue collecting significant Doctor Voodoo stories through Doctor Voodoo: Avenger of the Supernatural (2009) #1-5 by Rick Remender.

Marvel Solo Heroes: Echo Omnibus Mapping

Echo (1999 & on) 

In 2024, I read every issue Echo has ever appeared in to create my Guide to Echo, so I know just what this book ought to include!

This would collect Daredevil (1998) #9-15, Daredevil (1998) #51-55, New Avengers (2005) #11-13, 27, 31, & 39, material from Moon Knight (2011) #2-10, Daredevil (2016) Annual 1, Marvel’s Voices: Indigenous Voices (2020) #1 (1st story), Avengers (2018) #40-45, Phoenix Song: Echo (2021) #1-5, and Daredevil & Echo (2023) #1-4.

(I enjoy Echo in Captain Marvel (2019) #1-5, but I don’t know if she plays a big enough role to merit including it here.)

Marvel Solo Heroes: Else Bloodstone Omnibus Mapping

Elsa Bloodstone in Legion of Monsters (2011) #4Elsa Bloodstone (1975 – 2024)

This would collect virtually all of Elsa Bloodstone’s solo appearances, as well as some amount of background about her father Ulysses Bloodstone. See my Guide to Elsa Bloodstone for more details. It’s very tempting to turn into a catch-all volume for Nextwave (2006) and Monsters Unleashed (2017A) and (2017B), but then it would be too big to include the Ulysses Bloodstone backstory.

What would this book actually collect? It’s up to you!

This would begin by collecting Ulysses Bloodstone’s story from Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty (1998) #6 (3rd story), X-Men: Hellfire Club (2000) #2, Captain America & Namor (2012) #635.1, Strange Tales (1951) #73 (1st story), Marvel Universe (1998) #4-7 (Bloodstone stories), Marvel: Lost Generation (2000) #2, and Marvel Presents (1975) #1-2, Nova (2007) #34-35, and material Rampaging Hulk (1977) #1-6 & 8, and Captain America (1968) #357 (2nd story) but probably not all of #358-362).

Then, we switch over to Elsa Bloodstone. This would begin to collect Bloodstone (2001) #1-4, Nextwave: Agents of HATE (2006) #1-12, Marvel Assistant-Sized Spectacular (2009) #2 (4th story), Astonishing Tales: Boom Boom and Elsa [Bloodstone] (2009) #1 AKA Marvel Heartbreakers (2010) #1, Girl Comics (2010) #2 (5th story), Franken-Castle (2010) #21, Legion of Monsters (2011) #1-4 Wolverine (2010) #314-317, Fearless Defenders (2013) #8-9, Avengers World (2014) #15-16, Marvel Zombies (2015) #1-4, A-Force (2016) #8-10, Elsa Bloodstone in Monsters Unleashed (2017A) #1-5 & (2017B) #1-10, Jessica Jones (2018) #2, material from Fearless (2019) #1 (“Unusual Suspects”), material from Marvel Comics (2019) #1000 (“Monsters”), Death of Doctor Strange: Bloodstone (2022) #1, material from Crypt of Shadows (2022) #1 (“Down Came the Rain”), Werewolf by Night (2023) #1, Ghost Rider (2022) Annual 1, Marvel’s Voices Infinity Comic (2022) #86, material from Blood Hunters (2024) #1-4 (C-Stories), and Blood Hunters (2024B) #1-5.

Yeah, that’s too much for an omnibus. I think we’d cut Nextwave if necessary, plus Franken-Castle (2010) #21 and the Avengers World guest-arc to get down to a reasonable size. But, a lot of this material are anthology stories that are just 1-10 pages long, so that’s not as much material as it looks like!

Marvel Solo Heroes: Frankenstein Omnibus Mapping

Frankenstein (1973 & on) [1973 series & other appearances]

This would primarily collect Frankenstein (1973) #1-18. It might also collect other Atlas, Silver, and Bronze Frankenstein appearances such as Uncanny X-Men (1963) #40, Silver Surfer (1968) #7, Monsters Unleashed (1973) #2, 4-9, Avengers (1963) #131-13, Legion of Monsters (1975) #1, Marvel Team-Up (1972) #37, Iron Man (1968) #102, Dracula Lives (1974) #2-3, 15, & 17

Marvel Solo Heroes: Galactus Omnibus Mapping

Galactus The Devourer Vol. 1 (1965 & on) [all stories, like Book of Doom]

Galactus is a major force in the Marvel Universe whose appearance can signal some of their most epic stories – especially when he was used in moderation in the 60s, 70s, & 80s.

While this omnibus would certainly double-dip a significant amount of Fantastic Four material, I think there’s a wide enough breadth of appearances and stories to make this interesting to collectors and readers – especially with a comics-accurate version of The Devourer finally coming to the big screen!

A vote for this book is a vote for a relatively comprehensive collection of all of Galactus’s most-significant stories from his 1965 debut through 2001.

Thanks to both CK commenter KingBurger and Mapping Mintie BrandXK for their help on this one!

This would collect a minimum of Fantastic Four (1961) #48-50, 74-77, 121-123, 172-175, 208-214, 242-244, & 257-262; Thor (1966) #160-162, 167-169, 225-228; Silver Surfer (1968) #1 & 4; Silver Surfer: The Ultimate Cosmic Experience (1978) #1; Dazzler (1981) #10-11; Super Villians Classic (1983) #1, material from Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars (1984) #1-12; Silver Surfer (1987) #1-10, 17-18; Silver Surfer (1988) #1-2; Excalibur (1988) #61; Galactus: The Devourer (1999) #1-6; and Fantastic Four: World’s Greatest Comic Magazine (2001) #10-12.

    Made some tweaks to the Spider-Villain ideas, while also introducing some others.

    The Black Cat omni adds in that second claws mini-series, Evil That Men Do mini-series as well as some other ancillary appearances while cutting out event material like Maximum Carnage & Grim Hunt. Her second omnibus focuses on collecting the more recent appearances of her & MJ…could extend it a bit further but that works as a base mapping.

    **Black Cat: Felicia Hardy Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Spider-Man #194-195, #204-205, #226-227, #341-343, #606-607; Claws #1-3; Felicia Hardy: The Black Cat #1-4; Marvel Divas #1-4; Sensational Spider-Man (1996) #29-30; Sensational Spider-Man (2006) #34; Spectacular Spider-Man #75, #87-92, #98-100, #116-117, #119, #123, #128-129; Spider-Man: The Root of all Annoyance; Spider-Man/Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do #1-6; Spider-Man Unlimited #11; Uncanny Origins #10; Web of Spider-Man #80; Wolverine & Black Cat: Claws II #1-3; material from Amazing Spider-Man Annual #27, Marvel Comics Presents #57, Spider-Man Family #1, SpiderMan Holiday Special 1995, Web of Spider-Man Annual #3, Web of Spider-Man #11-12; What If..? #20-21, Women of Marvel #1.

    **Mary Jane & Black Cat Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Mary Jane #1-6; Jackpot #1; Jackpot & Black Cat #1-4; Mary Jane & Black Cat #1-5; Mary Jane & Black Cat: Beyond; material from Amazing Spider-Man (2018) #82, Amazing Spider-Man (2022) #31, Women of Marvel.

    The Doctor Octopus collection uses his funeral for an octopus story as an endcap and trims down the ASM/SSM appearances, to essential stories while also including his Year One mini-series and appearances in other comics. Some of the comics were written after Funeral for an Octopus but center around either that story or the character’s early years. Thought about adding in two other minis (Death/Destiny & Negative Exposure), but there’s a lack of space.

    **Doctor Octopus: Mind over Metal Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Spider-Man #3, #11-12, #31-33, #53-56, #88-90, #113-115, #131, #157-159; #296-297, #397-398, Annual #13, #15; Daredevil #165; Fantastic Four #267; Funeral for an Octopus #1-3; Guardians of the Galaxy #28-29; Marvel Fanfare #22-23; Spectacular Spider-Man #75-76, #78-79, #124, #173-175, #220-221, Annual; Spider-Man/Doctor Octopus: Year One #1-5; Untold Tales of Spider-Man #19; Web of Spider-Man #5; material from Amazing Spider-Man #156; Spider-Man Unlimited #3, #18; Web of Spider-Man (1985) #4, Web of Spider-Man (2009) #12.

    Electro would be a net-new addition. Much of these appearances are in Spider-books, but it’s sporadic enough to where it seems feasible as a collection.

    **Electro: Light Up the Night Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #9, #82, #187, #422-423, #425; Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #17, #612-614; Amazing Spider-Man (2014) #1-6; Amazing Spider-Man (2015) #17; Avenging Spider-Man #19; Daredevil #2, #87, #89; Marvel Knights: Spider-Man #3; Marvel Team-Up #56; New Avengers #1; Punisher #3-6; Sensational She-Hulk #58; Spectacular Spider-Man #66, #134-136, #157; Spider-Man #38-40; Spider-Man’s Tangled Web #10; Untold Tales of Spider-Man #11; material from Falcon #3-4; Marvel Holiday Special 1992; Spider-Man Family #3; Spider-Man Unlimited #9; Untold Tales of Spider-Man #7; Web of Spider-Man #2.

    Changed the initial Norman Osborn idea into a Harry & Norman collection with most stories taking place prior to Gathering of Five & all before Civil War. In addition to the mainline appearances, I included ancillary material like Revenge of Green Goblin mini, Legacy of Evil & its follow-up in Pulse, and Harry/Norman stories from ASM Extra.

    **Green Goblin: The Saga of Norman & Harry Osborn Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #14, #17, #26-27, #39-40, #96-98, #121-122, #136-137, #312, #440-441; Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #25; Marvel Knights: Spider-Man #12; Peter Parker: Spider-Man #25, #44-47; Sensational Spider-Man #32-33; Spectacular Spider-Man #130, #180-184, #189, #200, #259-263; Spider-Man #-1, #75, #96-98; Spider-Man: Legacy of Evil #1; Spider-Man: Revenge of the Green Goblin #1-3; Spider-Man: Shadow of the Green Goblin #1-4; Spider-Man: The Osborn Journal #1; The Pulse #4-5; Untold Tales of Spider-Man #25; material from Amazing Spider-Man Extra #1, 3; Spider-Man’s Tangled Web #13.

    Took the base Phil Urich mapping, then included an uncollected mini that focused on the character as a spin-off to his appearance in Runaways: “The Loners.”

    **Green Goblin: Phil Urich Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Scarlet Spider #2; Green Goblin #1-13; Spectacular Spider-Man #225; The Loners #1-6; Web of Spider-Man #125.

    As a follow-up to the early Harry/Norman appearances, this collection focuses on Norman’s stories after Siege with uncollected mini-series like American Son, Osborn, and Ravencroft in addition to his mainline stories. American Son was notably excluded from BND collection.

    **Green Goblin: Norman Osborn – Evil Incarcerated Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Spider-Man (2015) #25-28, #32, #797-800; Amazing Spider-Man (2018) #30-31, #49; Amazing Spider-Man: Sins of Norman Osborn; Amazing Spider-Man Presents: American Son #1-4; Avengers #18-24; New Avengers #16.1, #17-23; Osborn #1-5; Ravencroft #1-5; Red Goblin: Red Death; Superior Spider-Man #26-31; material from Age of Heroes #2, Amazing Spider-Man #794-796 Amazing Spider-Man #48.

    Expanded on the Kraven idea to include stories from the other members of Kravinoff stories. Ultimately including the “Get Kraven” mini, Kraven’s First Hunt, and some other clone saga era stories.

    **Kraven the Hunter Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #15, #34, #47-49, #103-104, #110-111, #209, #293-294, #565-567; Daredevil #104-105; Ka-Zar the Savage #20-21; Marvel Team-Up #128; Punisher War Journal #13-15; Spectacular Spider-Man #2, #65, #131-132, #251-253; Spider-Man #50; Spider-Man: Get Kraven #1-6; Spider-Man: Soul of the Hunter; Web of Spider-Man #31-32 #120-121; Spider-Man: The Lost Hunt #1-5; What If..? #17; material from Amazing Spider-Man #634-637, Astonishing Tales #1-2, Sensational Spider-Man Annual, What The-?! #3.

    This would be a net-new collection. Many of the appearances are from Spider-Man books, but I threw in other stories such as Guardian Devil, Mysterio Manifesto mini-series, his stories from Mary Jane series, and never-before printed mini titled “Fast Lane.”

    **Mysterio: The Master of Illusion Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Mary Jane #1-5; Amazing Spider-Man #13, #24, #66-67, #142, #198-200, #311, #408, #413, #618-620; Ben Reilly: Scarlet Spider #18-19; Daredevil (1964) #358; Daredevil (1998) #1-7; Fast Lane #1-4; Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #11-13; Sensational Spider-Man #1; Spectacular Spider-Man #50-51; Spider-Man #65; Spider-Man: The Mysterio Manifesto #1-3; Web of Spider-Man #90; Webspinners: Tales of Spider-Man #1-3; material from Amazing Spider-Man (2018) #1; Spider-Man Unlimited #4, Web of Spider-Man #4.

    Instead of including sinister six appearances in the other villain books, I opted for a collection of its own as well as some adjacent Sinister Syndicate stories that weren’t collected like Deadly & Lethal Foes of Spider-Man.

    **Spider-Man: The Sinister Six Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #334-339, Annual; Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #12, #648, #676, #682-687; Amazing Spider-Man: Ends of the Earth; Avengers Academy #14; Avenging Spider-Man #8; Deadly Foes of Spider-Man #1-4; Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #6; Lethal Foes of Spider-Man #1-4; Marvel Knights: Spider-Man #10-12; Peter Parker: Spider-Man #12; Spider-Man (1990) #18-23; Spider-Man (2016) #234-239; Spider-Man Unlimited #9; Superior Spider-Man Team-Up #5-7; Webspinners: Tales of Spider-Man #17-18; material from Amazing Spider-Man #659-660, #680-681; Spider-Man and the X-Men #3-4.

    This would be a net-new collection of almost entirely spider-man appearances. I also threw in stories about the “Red Vulture” which briefly appeared during BND era to pad the collection.

    **Vulture: Death from Above Omnibus**

    > collects Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #2, #7, #48-49, #63-64, #127-128, #224, #240-241, #386-388; Amazing Spider-Man (1999) #593-594, #623-624, #674-675; Daredevil #225; Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #14-16; Marvel Knights: Spider-Man #4; New Mutants #86; Peter Parker: Spider-Man #37; Punisher #2-3; Sensational Spider-Man (1996) #18, #28, #33.1-33.2; Spectacular Spider-Man #4-5, #44-45, #186-188; Spider-Man’s Tangled Web #11; The Pulse #2; Untold Tales of Spider-Man #5, #20; Web of Spider-Man #2-3, #24, #45; Webspinners: Tales of Spider-Man #15-16; material from Amazing Spider-Man #592; Sensational Spider-Man #26; Spider-Man’s Tangled Web #13; Spider-Man Unlimited (1993) #10; Spider-Man Unlimited (2004) #3; Web of Spider-Man (1985) #1; Web of Spider-Man (2009) #5.
