Every Missing Superman Family Omnibus, Mapped – Superboy, Supergirl, & More! | 2025 Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus Poll

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 Superman Family omnibus – including Superboy and Supergirl – 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.

This post covers Jimmy Olsen, Jon Kent, Lois Lane, Powergirl, New Superman, Steel, Superboy, Supergirl, and Superwoman.

Superman’s family of characters collectively just have one exclusive omnibus – this year’s Supergirl: The New 52 omnibus (although some Jimmy Olsen material is in Fourth World by Jack Kirby).

With Superman about to have one of his biggest years of all time and Supergirl with her own movie en route, we might finally see some of this material in omnibus… although DC seems perfectly content to complete it in paperback if we don’t signal to them otherwise with our votes.

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 Superman omnibus – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

Superman has an interesting history in omnibus. Prior to 2020, DC was hyper-focused on collecting his Golden age run – and the only other omnibus was Death and Return of Superman! Then, in the 2020s, DC got slightly more adventurous – but not much. They hit a few major modern runs, but Superman still had barely any coverage in omnibus.

Finally, with a potential hit movie on the horizon, in the past two years DC has gotten series about collecting Superman! Not only have they finally cracked into the much-demanded Triangle Era, but they’re also getting more aggressive about his post-Flashpoint material.

Even with leaps and bounds of improvement in DC’s release schedule, the potential for future Superman omnibuses continues to be a wide-open field. Your votes could meaningfully point DC into the right direction for their 2026 and 2027 slates of books.

Every Missing Suicide Squad Omnibus, Mapped – plus, other DC Teams! | 2025 Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus Poll

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 Suicide Squad omnibus that does NOT exist – plus other DC Teams including Doom Patrol, Outsiders, Challengers of the Unknown, and more – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

This post covers Challengers of the Unknown, Checkmate, Dial H, Doom Patrol, The Forever People, The Green Team, Immortal Men, Inferior Five, Metal Men, The Movement, New Gods, Night Force, The Outsiders, Power Company, Sovereign Seven, Stormwatch, Suicide Squad, The Terrifics, Trinity of Sin, Uncle Sam & The Freedom Fighters, Watchmen, & WildCATs.

Suicide Squad started 2025 with just one omnibus – a Silver Age Volume – and now they have three. That’s great progress, but there are still many more runs to collect, including the back 2/3rds of John Ostrander’s landmark reinvention of the team from 1987.

But what about other DC teams? We’ve got only one or two more Doom Patrol omnis left to produce, depending on how you count. The Outsiders and Challengers of the Unknown still have nothing. And there are tons of other DC teams and groups to cover, like Checkmate, Dial H, Power Company, The Terrifics, and more!

Note that the biggest teams – Justice League, Justice Society, Legion of Super-Heroes, and Titans (along with Young Justice) – all got their own posts, so they are not included here.

Every Missing Teen Titans Omnibus, Mapped | 2025 Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus Poll

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 Teen Titans omnibus that does NOT exist – plus Young Justice! – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

The Titans are a DC team with a massive amount of recognition and brand appeal, thanks to many fans growing up with the characters over the past 50(!) years and many of them finding their way into screen adaptations from many kid cartoons to a grim live action series.

However, when it comes to omnibuses, DC has a lot of work to do on the Titans line! We have the Silver Age covered, and the first massive swath of 80s material completely collected (re-collected, actually), but after that we just have Peter David’s Young Justice and a single Geoff Johns volume that leaves a series incomplete.

To check out all of those existing omnibuses, and to see how this material is already collected, see the Guide to Titans, Teen Titans, and Young Justice.

Every Missing Shazam Omnibus, Mapped | 2025 Tigereyes Most Wanted DC Omnibus Poll

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 Shazam omnibus that does NOT exist – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.

Shazam is a hero that DC Comics adopted after battling original publisher Fawcett over the idea that Shazam (originally “Captain Marvel”) infringed on identifying elements of Superman.

That and other factors resulted in Fawcett shutting down their comics line in 1953, ending Shazam’s Golden Age run. DC later licensed the character in the 1970s (with his Golden Age history intact), though by that time Marvel Comics had their own “Captain Marvel” – which resulted in the character being renamed to his magic word: Shazam! However, in a Post-Crisis world, Shazam exists wholly in the DC Universe with a completely revised continuity. To learn more, check out my comprehensive Guide to Shazam.

DC has never printed a Shazam omnibus – not even to support his movies! That’s despite a keen collector interest in each of his eras and his modern relaunch being written by Geoff Johns, usually a sure seller in omnibus.
