It’s time to map the DC Universe! In June, I’ll be joining with Near Mint Condition to launch the Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus 2nd Annual Poll! This post explains every DC Hero from A to E I haven’t already covered in other posts – including Blue Beetle, Captain Atom, Doctor Fate, & Deathstroke omnibus mapping – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

Through the end of May I’ll be covering DC entire publishing history by mapping missing omnibus volumes to fill in every gap in your DC oversize shelf! That’s all leading to the kickoff of the Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus 2nd Annual Poll on Near Mint Condition the first week of June.

Here’s the full list of the characters this post covers: Adam Strange, Ambush Bug, Amethyst, Angel & The Ape, Animal Man, Arak, Arion, The Atom, Black Adam, Black Lightning, Blue Beetle, Blue Devil, Booster Gold, Cameron Chase, Captain Atom, Captain Carrot, Creeper, Cyborg, Damage, Deadman, Deathstroke, The Demon Etrigan & Demon Knights, Doctor Fate, & Elongated Man.

Are you ready for the biggest DC Mapping Post you’ll ever read!? Today I’m mapping every DC solo character we haven’t covered in the past two weeks! I’ll be loosely mapping missing and most-wanted DC omnibus volumes every day until May 19th! Then, on the 19th, I’ll be joining with Near Mint Condition to launch the first annual Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus Annual Poll!

This post explains potential DC solo character omnibus mapping for votes on the Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus 1st Annual Secret Ballot. I’m posting all of these maps before the poll begins to give people the time to consider their favorites, correct our mapping mistakes, and catch books I might have missed.

Here’s the full list of the characters this post covers: Adam Strange, Ambush Bug, Amethyst, Arion, The Atom, Black Adam, Black Lightning, Blue Beetle, Blue Devil, Booster Gold, Brainiac, Brimstone, Cameron Chase, Captain Atom, Captain Carrot, Creeper, Cyborg, Damage, Darkseid, Deadman, Deathstroke, Demon Knights, Doctor Fate, Doomsday, Eclipso, Elongated Man, Etrigan, Firestorm, Frankenstein, Hawk and Dove, Hawkman, Hitman, Hourman, Human Target, Immortal Men, Jonah Hex, Kamandi, Kid Eternity, Lex Luthor, Lobo, Madame Xanadu, Manhunter, Martian Manhunter, Metamorpho, Mister Miracle, OMAC, Peacemaker, Plastic Man, Promethea, The Question, Ragman, The Ray, Red Tornado, Renee Montoya, Resurrection Man, Richard Dragon, Rose & Thorn, Sgt. Rock, Shazam, Sideways, Silencer, Solomon Grundy, The Spectre, The Spirit, Stargirl, Starman, Tom Strong, Valor, Vigilante, Warlord, and Zatanna.

If you don’t know DC well enough to know what to vote for, stick around for my explanations! Learn why the team behind the poll decided on these books and titles – including giving us feedback if we missed the mark.

If voting is now open, you can use this as your crib sheet! Or… just find some great comics to read!

Remember: These mappings are just my suggestion of how DC 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 DC creating a book with that title or covering that period.
