I like how comprehensive this list is. I feel you can include more titles to the list. This topic demands a Part 2.

Gem, I think you should get rid of the music in the background when you're looking it over. It's more interesting hearing what you got to say about it. Just my opinion.

Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video!! A lot of readers (including myself) really want to get into comics, but sometimes it seems too daunting. This makes it a lot easier!!!

I’ve recommended ultimate Spider-Man omnibus to friends unfamiliar with marvel, seems to be an easy read and gets people into Spider-Man.

Loved the video. It would be great if you could do more videos like this. Things like: best stories for a specific character, best stories from a major author, good jumping points for a new reader of a specific character and so on.

Good idea showing the art of the hard covers, it helps a lot. The picks are also excellent. Thanks

Strrrreeeetch that S P I N E !!! This is great, Gem thanks for this! 💎 Death of Superman was my first TPB too. Such a great run. Wondering if you’d eventually like doing a good “easy to find” top TPB/Omni review in a similar vein. Stay minty!

This video literally has every Omnibus on my want list! Planet Hulk was the first one I bought and I loved it, currently reading WWH now! Good stuff bro. 👊💎

GREAT VIDEO 📹 ONCE AGAIN!! That audio on point all the time man...keep up the good work 👏👍💪

I hit the like button before watching the vid for once. Dope topic. Thanks mang

Another killer video gem! Keep pumping them out and 100k is right around the corner

Great video! I picked up my first Omni (Wolverine) with New X-men on the way. Glad to know what to be looking for next. Already looking forward to the sequel to this video with 11-20!

Thanks for sharing! I'm interested in Wolverine,Uncanny X-Force, and Infinity Saga. Hubby told me about some of them and I was interested,but I thought it daunting to find all the books. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction to make it easier to jump into.

This was a good idea, should get a lot of new subs this way. You could also do books in print, OOP books that are getting reprinted, and Omni vs absolute pros and cons.

Excelent excelent excelent video man! Watching your videos is making me read all the comics I really enjoy, but stopped reading some time ago. You're easily becoming my favorite KZfaq channel! Keep up the awesome work!

Thanks for the informative video. I havent pulled the trigger just yet but want to buy my first omnibus soon.

Great video. Just beginning to collect omnis, so this was a big help. 👍

Great list! I've started collecting thanks to you a year and a half ago. On my own already have half the Marvel omni's you listed :) 'stretch those spines yall'

Gem thanks for this vid man! I’m on a mission this morning to get some good/huge material to dive into and I’m going to look around my comic shops and in stock trades. So perfect timing for this vid and also I’m new to ur vids but I can tell ur only getting better and better and I love how u turn the books around now so we can’t see what books they are! Keeps my watching and anticipated

Where was this last year lol good thing I lucked out and got almost all of these!

Great list. I really love the inclusion of the Jeph Loeb / Tim Sale Batman Omni.

Awesome. Just the video I was looking for. Grabbed that Green Lantern and XForce

I don't know if you've done a video like this but a video of the best starter omnibus for each character would be pretty cool!

The death of Superman could honestly be it’s own Omni with the return being its own Omni.

My man Gem Mint Always trying to make it easy for beginners thanks a lot ❤️

This helped me a lot as a new omnibus collector, thanks gem 💎

Even tho I’m not new too comics I recently picked up the Johns/EvS green lantern run and man say what you will bout EvS but that man can one hell of a comic book 📚

Good stuff...very in depth look at an omnibus. Thanks for the content

I think the music during overhead shot is fine. I also think it'd be a cool idea if during the overhead shots in the corner there was a screen showing you so we can see you talking about the book while you flip through.

Death and Return of Dupes was one of the early events that got me into comics as a kid. Think ill have to pick that one up for sure.

Awesome video and it was very helpful, thanks Gem !

Love your videos totally awesome. Keep up the great work

Appreciate this vid bro...been thinking about starting at the beginning with green lantern...he’s the hero I’m most interested in, but know the least about

Liked the list. I would add Planetary and Thor by Walt Simonson maybe Aquaman. Thor had an impact on the Marvel movies too.

For sure gotta pick up some Marvel as I've read nothing from them so far except for a few random floppies. Thanks for the informative video as always Gem, got me into collecting and supplying me with the knowledge to become well versed TWU!

You should do a top 10 current imagine comic run. Love the content!!

Cheers on the Planet Hulk recommendation, never read any Hulk but been interested in something I might be able to pick up and read

Really nice content, love to see 11 to 20!

The Death of Superman was probably the biggest comic event in history. Even here in the UK, it made all the national news stations and newspapers.

Yo I liked the music, love hearing your thoughts too though. Maybe you could incorporate both. Great video though! I def have a few of these on my list now. Stay happy and healthy good sir!

As always, DOPE video Gem!

Nice top 10, I’d have these as honorable mentions. FF vol. 2, Conan vol 1, uncanny x-men vol. 1, ultimate Spider-Man, and Frank Miller’s Daredevil...Can’t go wrong with those if your a new reader

I own 1 Omnibus and it's the Death and Return of Superman in black 👌. I want to pick up my 2nd Omnibus, Mike Grell's Vol 1 Green Arrow.

This is a great video thanks, any chance you could one on stuff other than super heroes maybe horror comics? Thanks Gem keep up the great content man. The #1 comic channel in my opinion.

Great recommendations, I've been reading Marvel for so long, this will help me get into DC

This was awesome Gem. Don't forget the Batman/Robin Loeb/Sale omni also has Catwoman: When in Rome. The only issue I have is now that they have re-issued the Wolverine Omnibus, why can't they get it right? What I mean is that the ideal Wolverine Omnibus would be book-ended by the awesome 6-issue Wolverine: Origin story by Quesada/Kubert/Isanove in the beginning and Old Man Logan by Millar/McNiven at the very end. They also left out Wolverine: Alone from Uncanny X-Men #133, the Wendigo/Alpha Flight two-parter right after Jean Grey's death in Uncanny X-Men #139-140, the incredible Barry Windsor-Smith (cover art only) of The Last Run for Uncanny X-Men #212, the gut-wrenching crucifixion of Wolverine on the cover of Uncanny X-Men #251 (the three most historic comics crucifixions include Conan from A Witch Shall Be Born (Barry Windsor-Smith on the art or John Buscema, I forget), Green Lantern crucified to the tail of a plane in the Denny O'Neil/Neal Adams run in Green Lantern/Green Arrow #89), and the Wolverine crucifixion from Uncanny #251); the Return of Weapon X storyline from Ultimate X-Men, and finally the 5-issue Wolverine Goes to Hell. Why they have left all this out is beyond me. I absolutely agree they should include the 3 issues from Incredible Hulk, the Barry Windsor-Smith Weapon X storyline, and the Claremont/Miller 4-issue mini-series. Therefore, in my humble opinion, the ideal Wolverine Omnibus would have the following in this order: 1. Wolverine: Origin 2. Weapon X (by the great Barry Windsor-Smith - the only artist from the late 1960s that could rival Neal Adams) 3. Hulk #180-182 (Wolverine first appearance) 4. Uncanny X-Men #133: Wolverine Alone (takes place in the Hellfire Club basement) 5. Uncanny X-Men #139-140 Wolverine solo adventure after Jean's death - introduces The Wendigo/Alpha Flight 6. Claremont/Miller 4-issue mini-series (failed samurai in Japan) 7. Uncanny X-Men #212: The Last Run (featuring Barry Windsor-Smith Wolverine cover) 8. Uncanny X-Men #251 crucifixion of Wolverine 9. Return to Weapon X storyline (Ultimate X-Men) 10. Wolverine Goes to Hell from Wolverine 1-5 (Jason Aaron) 11. Old Man Logan (Millar/McNiven)

Great vid! Just started collecting myself. So far i have uncanny xmen vol.1, age of apocalypse, wolverine vol. 1, and Deadpool classic vol. 1.

Definitely going to pick up some of these. Death and Return of Superman for the memories. Green Lantern. I think John's did some of his best creating there. Infinite Gauntlet, never read the whole story. Thanks for the ideas.

Good stuff as usual. Thanks for sharing

Really enjoying your content. Keep it going.🎯

Hated that back ground music. Kept making me think an ad had started lol. Otherwise Great video. Glad I got some of these omnibus.

Great and useful video!!! Thanks

Keepin it minty fresh, Doublemint better watch it's back.

Very Solid. Thanks!

Awesome books! Love all of your videos, as always!

My 2c as someone who has gotten into omnis hard during this year: 1) See if you actually want something popular as continuity fear is a thing (story calls out to some other events) - for this self-contained omnis are good (The Planetary Omnibus, Invisibles, Gotham Central (seems recently OOP), etc). 2) Is the omni out of print? - this seems an ongoing niggle with most lists such as this since it might be a great story, but if it's OOP then it's not much use. 3) If you're someone who is more interested in the art, you should look around and see which artist works might interest you the most. 4) Used/damaged in shipping/dinged omnis are ok - you can usually score great deals if you look around for omnis that might have their seal broken which drops down the price to silly levels (got the Snyder Batman for 30$ 5) Slowly but surely accept that you won't be able to read everything that has happened to historic characters (not to mention many people might see their earlier stuff as being hokey and not a fun read, but it depends on each person). 6) Many start issues routinely are for free on comixology/publisher websites, so it might be a good idea to go through that and see if you think it's worth to put your money down. IF you'll start liking omnis and are thinking of continuing that route - buy a Kallax shelf from Ikea and resign yourself to the fact that you'll possibly overpay for some OOP items (recently got that Spidey VS Venom omni in the UK, ouch... :) And remember, have fun! Great vid from Gem as per usual matey!

Your videos are mint. I want every book in that video haha. Just need to find them in the UK

Stumbled upon your channel, excellent stuff. Love it, keep it up mandingo.

amazing video keep up the great content

Thank you for the recommendations. Was mostly a Marvel fan but I wasn't sure where to start for Batman

amazing content keep it up bro

Thanks for the recommendations. I actually shopped around and picked up most of these books really cheap. I already had Spiderman vs Venom, and I'm waiting for the wolverine reprint. Love your content man!!!!

For Marvel, definitely overlooked the Frank Miller Daredevil omnibus or the companion. Both work so well at introducing the character and show why the comic medium is amazing.

Great video, this will get us a lot of new Gemenites ;)

Happy Birthday, Good Sir! Thanks for this video. Definitely need to add some of these omnis to my collection, but the Hellboy/Mignolaverse is hurting my wallet! The Planet Hulk and World War Hulk: does these two omnis completely close out the story arc? Let me know. Thank you in advance!

Hey I just finished yosts xforce. Had uncanny to look forward. Thanks man.

Nice video fam, but you know what imma ask for next. Top 10 independent Omnibus!

awesome video man

No Darkhorse makes me sad, haha. A lot of theirs have now come out in softcover and are really affordable, although I prefer their Library Editions. Books larger than Omni's for the artwork but not as thick, so they are more manageable. This is going to sound weird, but i fix things for a living, been turning wrenches my whole life. Now that I'm getting fairly old, my wrists aren't as strong as they used to be. So reading some of my Omni's and holding them can be a bit of a chore. Maybe I'm going senile as well, because i have no idea why I rambled through all that, haha.

These are such great ways of reading a story rather than having gaps or trying to find the other titles that connect to that one story arc, great video man!!🤙🐼🤙

I thought the music was hilarious. Turning pages has never been so dramatic! Thanks for the recommendations.

It's probably good to have music during the flip-through, but I miss all the background you give on the books while you flip the pages.

Great picks! Especially like Uncanny X-Force, Spider-Man/Venom, New 52 Batman and Loeb/Sale Bats. Kinda surprised Ultimate Spidey and Whedon's Astonishing didn't make the list. Those are some of the first stories I recommend as they're both great and accessible.

Love the list!

Just got my Batman Jeph Loeb Tim Sale Omnibus, LOVE IT!

You should definitely upgrade to the new Death of Superman Omni. It has the gatefold pages.

I"m leaning towards Green Lantern, Planet Hulk and Infinity Gauntlet...stay minty!

This video helped a lot

thanks for the vids

Hey man. Your my favorite youtube channel for comics. Can you redo this list where you continue to talk while reviewing the book. I listen with headphones and it through me off when it went silent ha

Good tips thanks

Great review

Great vid! My first Omni’s will be that Wolverine & X-Force! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I love that Spiderman Venom omni too! Just picked it up.

Great video!

Gem video idea could you do a cover of what HC and TPB and all these other things on websites are love your content and have used cheap graphic novels as you suggested best packaging I’ve ever had for a book

An omnibus video! Instant like. Your omnibus taste is uncanny and amazing.

Best omnibus for new readers would be something that sparks their interests.

In those collections the story lines are not together with the other titles which are for example part of Court of Owls. How do they read without them as a new reader?

Solid recommendations

Me to I liked it before I watched it because I feel is important to have this videos to bring people in to the hobby. Also planet hulk is top 3 for me ever so happy to see it get love.

Definitely gonna cop that x force omnibus while I still can

Didn’t think this comics game would be this challenging to get into

Awesome list

I’d recommend the Hellboy omnibus’ I think it is a fun read with great art from mike mignola.

Well in terms of your Marvel selections I have managed to pick up 4 of them and other "infinity Gauntlet" being on pre-order together with "Infinity Crusade". Here in the UK the arrival of the reprints for Uncanny X-Force and Wolverine have been rather patchy, to say the least. I had both of them on pre-order since last August. Some Uncanny stock became available "out of the blue" last month and similarly Wolverine suddenly became available last week. Of course this being the Wolverine reprint with a flat spine. What also turned up last week was Amazing spider-man by JMS Volume 2 whose availability in the UK was limited. Talking of limited availability I've got Sensational She-hulk Omnibus on it's way to me! Fingers crossed that my Silver Surfer pre-order is also fulfilled, another Omnibus that has immediately gone OOP.

Love your videos but as I watch more.... I'm freaking out a little. Do you not use dust jacket protectors? I'm noticing more and more collectors of omnibus' not using them... Is there a reason why? The sliding across the table is anxiety inducing and those mylar sheets seem like an essential accessory for these.

Awesome vid

Great Vid! Do you reccomend any options for purchace outside the US? Is Amazon a one way option?
