Man--I'm so stoked for this. It's weird though that people under value those 90s TPBs or want to get rid of them. They are gorgeous. Beautiful, warm, toothy matte paper and absolutely INCREDIBLE colors. All those TPBs from the 90s represent the pinnacle of mechanical coloring. Seriously--go look at your vintage X-Tinction Agenda TPB and compare those colors to what Marvel does in the omnibuses. There's so much lost and zero effort put in to replicating those gorgeous halftone colors. There's good things about both styles but definitely some magic lost in translation. EDIT: Ahhh you were talking about getting rid of the 2011 printing. Makes sense.
I skipped volume 2 because it was missing the X-tinction Agenda issues, and I had all the originals, unlike volume 1 were I was missing the 1st Gambit issues. Now I want it! 😂
Just got my copy and it's got a misprint that looks like it is also in the copy Omar is flipping through. At the end of New Mutants Annual 7 the pages go 418, 422, 420, 421 and 419, so 419 and 422 are swapped. A little frustrating for a $125 book.
I would say it is more than a little frustrating, considering the sheer volume of recent errors with Marvel books - including their refusal to fix obvious mistakes when reprinting books.
I AM DEFINITELY BUYING THIS X-MEN: X-TINCTION AGENDA OMNIBUS!!!! Thank you sooooooooomuch Omar AND Marvel for making this happen. I have wanted so long for this out-of-print hardcover to become an OMNIBUS!!!!!!!! Make Mine Marvel
I'm pretty much done with X-Men after this. THe series ends when Professor X asks, "What am I going to do with 16 X-Men?" Everything afterward Claremont/LeeV2 is such a mess to collect it isn't worth the hassle.
@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork But doesn't Bishops Crossing and X-Cutioners song also play it's part with vol. of Claremont/Lee's run? I would say those would be the exception but after that is totally up to the person.
The memories I have as a kid of opening the Jim Lee issues up and copying the art will never be forgotten. I’m focused on the Uncanny series Omnis, but I hope the people picking it up will enjoy the stories as much as I did.
22:44 I was going through my parent's attic last month, and I found my X-tinction Agenda pin set. A week later I found the board they came on. I also found my Avengers pin set from that same period. So awesome! I hadn't seen them in decades.
This will complete my Claremont collection, so I'm excited. It is a shame we don't have New Mutants 86-94 collected yet so I could have that series read in full before I get to this book.
I already pre-ordered the X-Tinction Agenda Omnibus with the standard edition cover. Now Omar we need to push Marvel to give us the Bishop's Crossing and Phalanx Covenant Omnibus.
Hi Omar, Thanks for all these overviews. I wasn't going to grab this, but the contents are just so much more than what the OHCs include. But damn I spent some time finding them and have that sentimental attachment, you know? PS: Wishing you and the family the best through this time of grief. Having lost family myself, the pain never really goes away. Just when you think you're doing okay, there's gonna be some little random thing, and niagara falls.
Oh man I was following this story monthly and it was so exciting! I wish Jim Lee would have been able to do the whole story as his art really sells the story. Even though i own XTA already in so many other formats the fact that this includes a lot of MCP, annuals and other specials make this a must buy for me! Cyclops cover still makes no sense to me but oh well, standard cover for sure!
I missed a lot of the older OHC's so preordered this. Hoping this and fatal attractions coming leads to bishops crossing/x cutioners song (Hopefully including the shattershot issues, could see that being split in 2 omnis knowing marvel), phalanx covenant/legion quest, wedding, eve of destruction etc.
I’ve got the two hardcovers but man I am still looking forward to getting this. I think that means I can pretty much read right the way thru the Claremont run now - I stress I think…. Great work by Omar and the whole NMC community.
Love X-Tinction Agenda, it's right up there with Inferno for me. Only small gripe is that I wish the DM cover had Cable instead of Cyclops, like the original Wanted poster for the crossover.
Spotlight on Starjammers, God's Country, Pharaoh's Legacy, Kings of Pain, Killing Stroke, the stories from Marvel Super-Heroes, the 8 pagers from Marvel Comics Presents, Marvel Holiday Special, and Marvel Tales
You had it right the first time. That X-Men tale was first published in Marvel Tales which had just reprinted Marvel Team-Up Annual #1. The weird 90s era where a reprint title had new back ups commissioned.
There are only two more X-Omnis I want after this: Inferno Aftermath that fills the New Mutants/X-Factor gap to this Omni and collects the rest of the supplemental material. The other one is The X-Men Omnibus Vol. 3 which collect the 4th X-Men Epic but I think should also include The Champions.
Excited for this omnibus!! We need Xcutioners song/bishops crossing omnibus!! We need epic vol 18 jim lee! Missed out on the omnibus and i got epic 17 Also need reprint of age of apocalypse, the twelve omnibus! One day soon! 🤩
I bought a trade (when i still bought trades) Of the X-tinction agenda on my first comic convention in the early to mid 90's The OHC's that are now combined in this omnie, i never was able to get, so i jumped on this one the moment it became available to pre-order.. Sufficed to say, i also voted for it in the poll.. and yet again.. Every book i voted for, got printed, or is going to be printed, 3 years in a row and most of my picks got released.
Hi Omar! A quick question please. I've just seen that the crossover "Days of Future Present" (FF Annual #23; New Mutants Annual #6, X-Factor Annual #5 and X-Men Annual #14) is included in FF Epic Collection "Into the Time Stream", will it be also be included in the respective X-Men Epics as well as in the omnibus? Thanks!
No one knows. The appropriate New Mutants Epic did not include the Fantastic Four issue. Sometimes Epics include the whole storyline, and sometimes they don't
On a related x men note, would love a modern X-Men Omni wishlist. From Astonishing to Hickman I don’t believe anything else is collected in Omni format. I know people have talked about a Carey, or Legacy, or Messiah Omni. So would love a list of your top 10 and how they would be collected. (Unless that’s already been made then a link would be great haha)
While I have both OHC's, I'm still getting this. X-Tinction Agenda is my favorite X-Over. Getting the Havok/Standard cover. Not a fan of the colors and photoshopped in Cyclops on the DM. Now if only we can get Shattershot and Bishop's Crossing.
Excluding UXM #235-238 from this omnibus is huge misunderstanding as they are introduction to this story... 235-238 were included in Masterworks edition as well as in OHC so wtf? Including those in inferno prelude omni was another misunderstanding, where they do not fit at all...
Other than the obvious, Bishops Crossing and X-Cutioners song. A reprint of Shattershot maybe that gets included and fills out the book with the two stories mentioned above. Bit would love for them to reprint the Messiah Trilogy era. its time.
Unsure if I'm gonna get this, because I've been collecting both Uncanny X-Men, X-Men Events and The New Mutants Omnibuses and concerned about double dipping and wanting to take up too much space (don't have infinite cases/shelves here xP)
With this book, everything from the original Claremont run has been collected in omnibus format. Not all of it is still in print ... you will have to wait for reprints on or two of the volumes. Plus it's still unclear what Marvel plan to do about the Claremont/Lee Vols 1 & 2 ( which you already have ) as these have been OOP for a while now.
Gonna wait for sale on this one. Kings of Pain seems an unnecessary addition considering it doesn't fit in the timeframe and has been reprinted so many times.
Another print run wide misprint?! What the hell is going on with Marvel these days? The number of misprints in just the last year is ridiculous. These are not errors from the printer for the most part - this is obviously a problem with the files sent to the printer, in other words an internal QC error. The error with the misplaced pages has been confirmed to be present in the recent digital/pdf release of the book. Omar, is there any way you could do a video on this issue collecting all of the problems with misprints? This is not a widespread problem with other publishers like DC or Dark Horse, so I would like to know why exactly Marvel seems to be having these issues over and over again (including NOT fixing obvious misprints in later printings of the same book)
I'm sticking with the OHC of X-Tinction Agenda really I'm only interested in just the X-Men title I could care less about the useless crossovers and mediocre art I can always catch up by reading the summaries online.
X-Tinction Agenda COULD have been one of the best X-Overs... but the art is just so uneven. Lee kills it, but the NM and XF issues are hard for me to deal with.
Really happy that WE ALL made this happen!! (As far as I’m concerned, this has an honorary NMC exclusive logo on the front ;) )
Welp, all we need now is Bishop’s Crossing and Phalanx Covenant. 🤠
Yep! I guess X Factor 41-59 won’t be collected in a X-Men omnibus though
I need Phalanx and Shattershot. A shame about the gutter loss.
Jim Lee has never surpassed the work he did on Uncanny X-men. X-Tinction agenda just has supreme artwork by him.
Man--I'm so stoked for this. It's weird though that people under value those 90s TPBs or want to get rid of them. They are gorgeous.

Same!

Can't wait to have this in my hands! Now we just need an omni of Bishop's Crossing, X-cutioner's Song, and the Shattershot OHCs!
Also a reprint of phalanx covenant. Id rather not pay 300+ on the after market for that.
I'm pretty much done with X-Men after this. THe series ends when Professor X asks, "What am I going to do with 16 X-Men?" Everything afterward Claremont/LeeV2 is such a mess to collect it isn't worth the hassle.
And reprints of Revolution as well as an Eve of Destruction omni (yes, I'm serious)
@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork But doesn't Bishops Crossing and X-Cutioners song also play it's part with vol. of Claremont/Lee's run? I would say those would be the exception but after that is totally up to the person.
@@cactusblack5993 I know nothing about Bishop's crossing, but X-Cutioner's Song does not. It was the first X crossover I read as a kid.
The memories I have as a kid of opening the Jim Lee issues up and copying the art will never be forgotten. I’m focused on the Uncanny series Omnis, but I hope the people picking it up will enjoy the stories as much as I did.

This is officially my last x-men book. I wasn't collecting x-men during these years, but I own the 2 jim Lee omnis, and I'm a freak for continuity.
This will complete my Claremont collection, so I'm excited. It is a shame we don't have New Mutants 86-94 collected yet so I could have that series read in full before I get to this book.
I already pre-ordered the X-Tinction Agenda Omnibus with the standard edition cover.

Thanks!
Sooo glad to see this one. What a long time coming! You did an amazing thing with this one, Omar! And so did all the Minties!
I'm here for your X-men:Eve of Destruction omnibus announcement....lol just joking but seriously...lol please!!!
What a classic X-men era - so many great creators and stories!!
Day one purchase for me! My run of Claremont Omnis will be complete! 😊

Thanks for the review and sorry for your loss man ❤
Fantastic collection but I wish they would have left Cable on the DM cover.
Yeah. It’s weird they took him off and replaced him with Cyclops in the wrong costume lol.
Bishops crossing and x-cutioners song omni would be a preorder for me.
Great video and books, we will be carrying both In-store!!
Oh man I was following this story monthly and it was so exciting! I wish Jim Lee would have been able to do the whole story as his art really sells the story.

Pre-ordered the DM. Need the UXM 4, Inferno, and the claremont/lee books.
WE DID IT!! Thank you Marvel!

We definitely need an updated reading order for XMen
My childhood i love these stories ✔️
Love X-Tinction Agenda, it's right up there with Inferno for me. Only small gripe is that I wish the DM cover had Cable instead of Cyclops, like the original Wanted poster for the crossover.
Great vid of always Omar.. Am I missing much if I stick with the 2 deluxes of DoFP and Extinction Agenda?
Spotlight on Starjammers, God's Country, Pharaoh's Legacy, Kings of Pain, Killing Stroke, the stories from Marvel Super-Heroes, the 8 pagers from Marvel Comics Presents, Marvel Holiday Special, and Marvel Tales
I have both OSHs; but, this review plus the extra material convinced me.
hell yes. ready for this. I'm getting the retail cover.
Not gonna lie... I thought this was already uploaded last week and was like "is this a re-upload?"
Ahhhh.... the perks of being a Patreon member. 🤫
Been waiting awhile for this one. Sold the OHC to get this. Hated the double dipping. Love the standard cover.
Can’t wait to add this one to the collection!
Gorgeous! Some of my favorite Jim Lee X-Men art, especially issue 271! 🤩 Does the Starjammer mini lead right into Uncanny issue 275?
I decided on the standard cover on this long ago but those spines are making me reconsider things.
You had it right the first time. That X-Men tale was first published in Marvel Tales which had just reprinted Marvel Team-Up Annual #1. The weird 90s era where a reprint title had new back ups commissioned.
So pumped for this one
Already preordered.
I'm definitely getting this i just don't know what cover i want
There are only two more X-Omnis I want after this:
Inferno Aftermath that fills the New Mutants/X-Factor gap to this Omni and collects the rest of the supplemental material. The other one is The X-Men Omnibus Vol. 3 which collect the 4th X-Men Epic but I think should also include The Champions.
This cover on book is killer .. super stoked for this one , extinction agenda & mutant massacre are probably my 2 favorite x-men stories .
Anyone know if there's going to be a reprint of X-Men: Inferno omnibus?
Yes, I would love to know that too, I missed it and only have the prelude 😢
I just can't wait for Epic Collection #18
Dam... I have my hardcover signed by all most of the creators, but still FOMO-ing over this omnibus.
Excited for this omnibus!!
We need Xcutioners song/bishops crossing omnibus!!
We need epic vol 18 jim lee! Missed out on the omnibus and i got epic 17
Also need reprint of age of apocalypse, the twelve omnibus! One day soon! 🤩
What is it with marvel???
Another Omni with a printing error???
This was the one. The one everyone was waiting for and they cocked it up 👏👏👏👏
I bought a trade (when i still bought trades) Of the X-tinction agenda on my first comic convention in the early to mid 90's The OHC's that are now combined in this omnie, i never was able to get, so i jumped on this one the moment it became available to pre-order..

@@andyholcombe7671 bummer. Thanks!
The gutter loss is awful when compared to that OHC.
Wow.
A half inch at least.
At least.
I think I'm happy with my OHC, but this looks nice!
No Near Mint exclusive cover though?!
On a related x men note, would love a modern X-Men Omni wishlist. From Astonishing to Hickman I don’t believe anything else is collected in Omni format.

Now if only we can get Shattershot and Bishop's Crossing.
Is Kings of Pain in any other Omnibus or OHC?
Replying to myself I found out that it's in New Warriors Omnibus v1
Cant wait to get this.
Getting this, and then will only need Inferno omni (hopeful for a reprint).
Omar do you think there will be a X-Men omnibus that collects X Factor 41-59?
Do you think marvel is going to do xmen blue,gold,and red and maybe black in the epic collection line
ordered the dm cover, but still upset it should've been cable on the front, not cyclops. Cyclops has enough covers lol
Excluding UXM #235-238 from this omnibus is huge misunderstanding as they are introduction to this story... 235-238 were included in Masterworks edition as well as in OHC so wtf? Including those in inferno prelude omni was another misunderstanding, where they do not fit at all...
Do you have any omnibus suggestions for any 40s 50s noir crime comics??
Other than the obvious, Bishops Crossing and X-Cutioners song. A reprint of Shattershot maybe that gets included and fills out the book with the two stories mentioned above. Bit would love for them to reprint the Messiah Trilogy era. its time.
Got this preordered, cant wait. Now i just need them to reprint the Claremont/Lee X-Men Vol 2 and ill complete my collection 😅
I thought that Cyclops was wearing a bald cap while undercover as a mutate.
I have the Shattershot HC still sealed! 😂
X-Men for the algorithm!
My wallet 😭
Im really wondering how much overlap a new mutants 4 omnibus is going to have with this?
Probably a lot.
Unsure if I'm gonna get this, because I've been collecting both Uncanny X-Men, X-Men Events and The New Mutants Omnibuses and concerned about double dipping and wanting to take up too much space (don't have infinite cases/shelves here xP)
Could always go the digital Omni route. I have the same problem with limited shelf space.😎
Let's go!!!!!!!
So, according to my calculation, this goes in between Epic Collection volume 17 and 19. Am I right?
does anyone know if there's any omnis left for the claremnont run? i only have UXM vol 2 and 4, xmen jim lee 1-2, and xtinction agenda left to collect
With this book, everything from the original Claremont run has been collected in omnibus format. Not all of it is still in print ... you will have to wait for reprints on or two of the volumes.

Gonna wait for sale on this one. Kings of Pain seems an unnecessary addition considering it doesn't fit in the timeframe and has been reprinted so many times.
So, we have enough scans for at least 2 more Uncanny X-Men. Can we have them soon, please?
I didn´t get if this omni truly has a main story holding everything together or if it´s mostly a compilation of issues with close publication date.
It’s the whole Xtinction agenda story along with nonlinear issues( filler).
Another print run wide misprint?! What the hell is going on with Marvel these days? The number of misprints in just the last year is ridiculous.

Whoah 🤠
Sorry, I didn't get it.... Did you mean Genegenier, or Jeangenier?😅😅
Boo on the DM cover!! Regular cover it is
Stan Lee's nephew is on this also?? 😂😂😂
I will rather wait for Volume 4 of New Mutants because it most likely include both X-Tinction Agenda and Days of Future Present.
Yeah
No misprints? lol
I'm sticking with the OHC of X-Tinction Agenda really I'm only interested in just the X-Men title I could care less about the useless crossovers and mediocre art I can always catch up by reading the summaries online.

It's pronounced "Chode".
