The Uncanny Omar should be a Marvel Character

The way Omar talks about his favourite comics is maybe the most beautiful thing that I have seen in those difficult times. You are amazing man

Jeez Omar, that's one heckuva of workout hauling out all those books. Omnibus's are great way to exercise the brain and bisceps. Mutant Massacre is my all time favourite cross over.

Man I love Days of future past. I could re-read that over and over again. Dystopian storytelling at its best. The artwork is beautiful as well.

Fall of the mutants !!! I know why I follow this channel

That list brings back so many memories especially Mutant Massacre and Fall of Mutants when I was in high school and college respectively. I've always liked it when the X-Men ventured out into space so my list would include the Lilandra/Shiar story line in Uncanny #107-108 where the X-Men battle the Imperial Guard for the first time and encounter the Starjammers. Also the Brood story line from Uncanny #162-167 where we finally get a Wolverine solo story in #162, introduction of Binary and the X-Men meeting the New Mutants for the first time.

My man, thank you for making these amazing videos every day. The world needs them more now than ever!!! Don't ever stop!

Nice list! Here's my personal ranking: 10. Asgardian Wars 9. X-Cutioner's Song 8. Days of Future Past 7. Inferno 6. Messiah Complex 5. Mutant Massacre 4. X-Factor Endgame 3. House of X/Powers of X 2. Age of Apocalypse 1. Dark Phoenix Saga If I could only include the X-Factor and Uncanny X-Men parts of Fall of the Mutants, it would be an easy #1, but the New Mutants arc is just sooooo bad. I never want to read about Bird Brain again lol. The UXM part in Dallas though is actually my favorite arc in all of X-Men.

Great list as always You are the reason why I so much love X Men Thank you for sharing your love for the Comics 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

Could someone send a forklift over to my place? I need help getting my jaw off the floor after watching this vid. Omar, you would think by now I would know how wide and deep your comic knowledge is (especially with the X-Men) but you always surprise me with a nugget I never knew of or a new way of looking at something. It is always a real pleasure to watch you and hear your opinions. It always blows me away. I'm very proud and happy to call you my friend. #OmarRules #MarvelLetOmarWriteXMen

I was waiting for this video from long time.

Superman Blue costume Omar is the best

Awesome I’m about to read all of these!

Great video, great list! Love the transition effects. Perhaps this could be a start of a new series of videos.

I love the 'Inferno' event!

great list omar!! i agree biggest surprise was endgame x-factor story.. one of my favorites.. great video

Now I want to see a video of your top ten sweaters. This would be a great crossover event with Jess.

Greay video Omar,and great sweater.

Omar you are my best X-Man :D

You can't see it but I'm doing the worm on the floor after reading the title.

Can't wait for that Fall of the Mutants Omni

Good list love it. Age of Apocalypse ... they are making a line of action figures this year.

Love your passion for these events Omar,beautiful to see a fellow X-men diehard fan :)

Great list Omar

Please keep more list coming!

Great list Omar! I didn't get an email notification for this video. Luckily it gets pushed to my phone.

Okay. Age of apocalypse, HOXPOX, and Messiah complex is enough for me not to be upset you didn't pick onslaught. Just... ;)

As I’ve only read the modern events, the milestones are a great way to go back and read the classics.. picked up two so far

Awesome video Omar

When I came to the states, Xmen was the first comic book I purchased,and it was #210, all on your list are my favs as well. The X-men have some of the most climatic memories such as Xtinction agenda-wolverine vs archangel, fall of mutants-wolverines' speech to the camera before the sacrifice, Mutant Massacre- how the Morlocks couldn't avoid their faiths...etc, I could go on and on. Great video.

I still havent read some of these! The Jim Lee reprints coming this year will help. HoX/PoX was so incredible though, it definitely gave me that hyped for the X-Men again feeling. I hope Hickman is continuing the hype with all the new series that were launched after it.

Omar, very nice video as always. I wanted to ask you (if possible) to consider making a video where you suggest to buy some of these stories in a specific format due to X reason, no pun intended. What I really wanna ask is for your opinion on which events/crossovers may not be collected in an omnibus maybe, for instance, because they don't have enough material to get more than just a OHC. This is the idea, you know, it doesn't have to be X-titles only. I know you're getting what I mean and can make the idea even better. The reason I ask is because sometimes you wanna wait for that ultimate version of a story but little do we know that F4vsXmen is a miniseries and we may never see an omnibus of that. Much appreciated, man.

Great list omar! It's interesting as a fan who is newer to this material than you, to get some perspective why the older material is held in high regard. My picks would all be more recent, like HoX/Pox, Second Coming, Messiah Complex, and Necrosha. Like the Claremont era is your era, Decimation is mine. I just hope Hickman can stay and pilot this ship for longer than a few years

Love these videos! I know it would make it more difficult but you should rank them next time! Age of Apocalypse would be tops for me, I think.

Thanks for the show. I too loved X-Factor Endgame. Beautiful art and a heartbreaking ending. It surprised me that they didn't delve more into how Scott would handle giving up his son in subsequent issues. That should have been an ongoing story in itself, but he seemed fairly fine with his decision in the issues right after that story. I'm also surprised they never tried to bring back SHIP. Ship vs Danger would have been awesome. I know later creative teams tried to use the Dark Riders, but in my opinion they were never better than they were in X-FACTOR endgame. Great show Omar.

And also Just Love ur work bro😍😍😍

Great vid as always. I would put in that mix of stories inferno, Bishops crossing.

Omar, thanks for making this awesome video. I would like to know if you could have in your future plans for video ideas to make an introduction to the world of the X-Men. I am more of the self contained characters but the characters and personalities from the X-Men side have always interested me and would like to get into that world but I see it as daunting. It would be helpful to have a simple "guide" or overview of the X-Men history spoiler free to get an idea of how to get into the X-Men. I know that the good stuff happens with their revamp in Giant Sized X-Men but after that there is so much material and so much to cover for present day. I have no problem going in the long haul but wanted to ask being that you are passionate about this to include this in a future video idea.

So glad you included House and Powers.

Wicked thoughts Brother, Loved your top 10 👍

oh yeah i love those types of videos

Thanks for the list and the information about the comics! I always wanted to buy one, but I didn’t know where to start at all lol. So thanks for the help fam!

Now... break each one down in exquisite detail. I thought no one appreciated x-cutioners song like I did.

Great Channel!

Please do an Avengers related one

Great video NMC, can do more modern EVENT videos like DC/New 52, Batman & Others

Omar you make the best videos!! I hope one day I meet you in person and you can sign my fall of the mutants omnibus (you personally got me into X-men!!) I don’t have endgame, is that collected in trade with more issues?? I might hunt down those issues it sounded dope!!

My Top 10 would be: 10. X-Tinction Agenda 9. The Fall of the Mutants 8. Phoenix Saga 7. Days of Future Past 6. X-Cutioner's Song 5. Messiah Complex 4. Dark Phoenix Saga 3. Onslaught 2. Age of Apocalypse 1. Inferno

My kind of Video. Nice!

My favorite on your list is X-Cutioner's Song. That was the first x-book crossover I read in junior high. So good. It was even better since it was published when the Fox X-Men show was originally airing.

Awesome review

My top 10: 1 - dark Phoenix saga 2 - days of Future past 3 - mutant massacre 4 - age of apocalypse 5 - x-cutioner's song 6 - x-tinction agenda 7 - fall of Mutants 8 - muir Island saga (begins the blue and Gold team) 9 - inferno 10 - e for extinction

Thanks this help a lot

Which Omnibus collects the FF vs the X-Men again? Awesome video! I’ve been trying to get the Fal of the Mutants Omni for a reasonable price forever...

The brood is one of my favorite events just because of the cyclops surprise just blew my mind

Cool video, thanks! Actually I just read FotM and really liked X-Factor and UXM but after their storylines, New Mutants was just anticlimactic. You go from the X-Men sacrificing everything to kids arguing what to wear to a party. But the X-Factor and UXM storylines were really cool. Will soon continue my Claremont read-a-thon.

So watching this in 2023 I just picked up my first X-Men Omnibus a couple of weeks ago, it was honestly just because it was on sale for $30 on IST…. But what I’m hearing from you is this was the one to pickup for sure! Now I have to hurry up and finish Deadpool and Cable so I can read it!!

My top five in no order: Fall of the Mutants Messiah Complex Mutant Massacre Inferno Age of Apocalypse

My top 5 are 1 fall of the mutants 2 age of apoclaypse 3 days of future past 4 house/power of x 5 x factor endgame

Aside from X factors artist at the time, extinction agenda was amazing! But inferno is by far my favorite 🤩

Top Five 1) Dark Phoenix Saga 2) Days of Future Past 3) Fall of The Mutants 4) Inferno 5) X-Tinction Agenda I never really got to read Onslaught or Age of Apocalypse, so I'm going to have to pick up the trades or the omnis one day.

loved x-cutioner's song. still have the singles and bought the thicc trade from CGN i believe. shocked at how many of these i actually own

After the success of Mutant massacre omni, please make David to release the fall of the mutants and inferno stories in omnibus format. We just love continuity. Great video though, I'm just planning to read some X men while I'm stuck at home.

Days of future past, Phoenix Saga, Age of Apocalypse, Fall of the Mutants, and Messiah Complex are my favs! Omar Diamond Comic Distributor is not making payments supposedly. May be awhile before we see non-digital comics again..

I thought this was going to be an April fools of all the terrible stories. Should of known Omar takes X-men seriously, even on April 1st.

Bro plz do a top ten x-men books video

One of the best things about this channel is that Omar replies to the comments

I'd have had two events that were back to back on my list, The Proteus saga and the Dark Phoenix saga and Inferno of course was the culmination of a lot of story arcs

I'm adding this to my to-play list, because too spoiler-heavy! I'm just coming into X-men re-reading so a lot of this is still new. But a great idea for a vid (once I've read a few and am immune to spoilers)! :)

I see Near Mint and X-Men I like instantly. Could you do a reading order of X-Men Gold, Blue, Red, Black, X-Force, Jean Grey, Astonishing by Soule, Cable, Rogue & Gambit, etc. (ResurXion basically) all the way to Uncanny X-Men Disassembled (trade paperbacks)? Please :)

I wish Marvel would make a "Real Onslaught" story like they did for the Clone Saga. Better focus and less convoluted would make it a killer tale.

That’s a cool sweater, where did you get it from?

Claremont did, in fact, write the Fantastic Four for years in the 90s, I think it was. Misty Knight became a real force during his run. Definitely worth reading.

In my opinion; 1) Phoenix Saga 2)Giant Size n°1 3) Days of Future Past 4)Mutant Massacre 5)X-Men Inferno 6)Messiah Trilogy7)XCurtioner’s Song 8)X-Men: Rise and Fall of the Shi'ar Empire 9)House of X and 10)AVS vs X-MEN

I really enjoyed Battle of the Atom. One of my favourite X-Men events for sure.

Omar has there been any updates this week (April 9) from CGN.com on when they might get wolverine or Astonishing X-men from their distributors?

Hey, Omar. The Uncanny X-Men Vol. 4 content has been out for some time now. When are you releasing the updated Comprehensive X-Men Reading Order? :-) Perhaps you can include Epics, TPBs and Complete Collections with the Omnis and OHCs this time around similar to what you did with Daredevil. And please don't skip Asgardians Wars this time around. It was missing in Part 1 last time. Thanks a lot!

Long post here....... Omar I want to thank you for this vid even though I’m so late to it. I’m about the same age as you, but unlike yourself I stopped reading comic books during high school. After the greats left Marvel to start Image I felt betrayed (a little dramatic I know) I didn’t understand what was going on at the time. I only knew that Claremont, Lee, Leifeld, McFarlane, Portacio, and my favorite Silvestri had left. The art wasn’t the same. The stories seemed to detour. I just wasn’t feelin’ it. Now 25 years later I feel myself being drawn back into everything again, but I was still cautious about the “newer” stuff post 1991 lol! Thank you for making this list as I revisit old friends and take your recommendations for the new ones. Thanks man, I can’t wait!

House of X and powers of x I just reread a few days ago. And I'm not going to lie it made me cry I felt like the X-Men haven't been used properly in a long time and it's not like they were finally women after so many years of struggling. It still astonishes me that Jonathan was able to come up with an amazing story but it felt right. Like this is the next chapter for the accident and I'm hoping it's a long chapter. And I really say give a little hell of a lot of praise to the artist and colorist and everyone else on this book that did as equally is amazing job at John Heckman you got to give it to them be with me bust their ass hardcore on this man.

Can you make a series of videos on the timeline of x-men events thanks!

Oh my god Age of Apocalypse is so amazing. It felt like as the story was going on that the world that was created through the actions of legion was telling the story of how it would be if apocalypse did truly achieve his goal. It was such a great story like Mikey the entire time I felt like it was just the rest of truly dread deceived his vision come to life from the mind of apocalypse. Survival of the fittest It horrified me reading that story a lot. Even some of the changes like seeing the summers work with apocalypse and their father was Sinister that raised them. Or angel on his own bar, when the same time you saw Jean Grey and Wolverine hook up with I was like that's probably one of the only plus is from the story. But the way that apocalypse carried himself like his world was speaking for him half of the time that this is how things are and should have been to the store and took a lot of preparation to get us here there is Paradise in his own mind. It was such a great story that you saw so many spin-offs from that story and some of the spin-offs were really damn good to buy nothing beats that offense in my eyes like that is the one of the go-to story for Apocalypse the really understand him intimately.

This was great and I only own Messiah Complex somehow 😲 could you do one on Justice League maybe?

Awesome books

I forgot back in the early noughts that there were pretty much no crossover events. Easily one of the best times overall in X-Men history. Then they started doing crossover events again . And X-Men went into a downward spiral.

Do top 10 justice league stories

Since you counted an x-Factor story, I’m going to throw in the Dark Angel Saga from Remender’s X-Force.

Would u recommend using cheap graphic novels for someone who doesn't live in the USA?

Are any of those events fully covered in epic format?

Is endgame (xfactor 65-68) in any omnibuses?

10.Brood Saga 9.E for Extinction 8.Fatal Attractions 7.Mutant Massacre 6.Fall of the Mutants 5.Dark Angel Saga 4.Inferno 3.Dark Pheonix Saga 2.Age of Apocalypse 1.House/Powers of X

Inferno will always be my favorite.

I pre-ordered Mutan Massacre dm cover Omni! 😁

We so need an X-Factor Omnibus
