I'd have thought that the storyline that ran through Avengers 152-156, including Annual 6 and Super-Villain Team-Up 9 would make a fairly reasonable MPC.

There is some voids after #149 that need to be filled and given what's been reprinted so far I doubt we see an "omnbi" of the Perez/Byrne material yet, as it's rich pickings for MPCs or more tpbs.

Would they orphan 150 and 151 and leave out Perez material, even if the former is mostly reprint and they already reprinted the later in I Am An Avenger TPB?

Breaking it down it's not entirely impossible to see it all in one volume but I must admit I haven't looked closely enough, if the future issues would nicely fit done another way.

150(19), 151(18)
152(19), 153(18), Ann #6(28),
154(18), Super-Villain Team-Up 9(18), 155(18),156(18)

* page count includes the covers


If the next volume after that is Bride of Ultron consisting of #160-162, 164-166, what do you do with:

157(18) - which is the stone Black Knight fill-in issue
158-159 (both 18) - which is the intro of Gravition. A story I would perhaps like to see reprinted.

We already have the Korvac Saga MPC #167-168,170-177

169(19) - another fill-in.
178(18) - Beast story - would be nice to see the unpublished Perez cover though.
Ann #8(34) - Perez
179-180 (both 18) - Bloodhawk 2 parter.

Knights of Wundagore TPB covers #181-187 (which is an updated version of Yesterday Quest TPB  #181-182,185-187) and still in print so I don't know if they would do a MPC just yet.

Here's a quick breakdown if someone wants to work out future volumes:

Avengers #188(19) - Byrne
Ann #9(35)
#189(18) - Hawkeye - Byrne - in Hawkeye MPC
#190-191(both 18) - Grey Gargoyle 2 parter - Byrne
#192-193(both 18) - Inferno 2 parter
#194-194(all 18) - Solomon Institute 3 parter intro Taskmaster - Perez
#197-199(all 18) - Red Roni 3 parter - Perez except 1st part
#200(36) - Marcus/Ms. Marvel - Perez
#201-202(both 23) - Ultron 2 parter - Perez
