What would be a potential mapping for a second omnibus. I dont know why this popped in my head but it is. I would think the Origin Mini series is a must, and what other mini series would be there? Havok and Wolverine? Wolverine 11-26 would take us thru the Byrne art plus a couple of Gene Colan issues and a random John Buscema issue. Maybe the Warren Ellis "Not Dead Yet" series. Any Uncanny issues that might fit? What else might find its way in there?

Well, if you break out of the chronological order of publication and start dropping in Origin, "random" Buscema issues, and "NDY", you're looking at something more along the lines of a "Best Of" volume rather than an Omnibus Volume 2. Personally, I'd be more inclined to purchase a Volume 2 of chronological reprints rather than a Best Of, but it's hard to imagine either type of publication being a money loser for Marvel.


Reading now:  White Tiger mini-series; X-Statix Omni
 
Awesome new acquisition:  X-Statix Omnibus (still waiting for my copy of Marvel Firsts 1960's to arrive, I'm sure that will qualify)
