Captain America completes the trinity of my favorite heroes. That Kubert and Jurgens art snaps so hard. And I can’t help but think how cool it is to see father and son artwork with the pencils and colors. Can’t wait to have this.
Great channel. I really appreciate the way you use your contact's with Marvel to get any missing issues included as that has traditionally been a source of frustration for collectors for years.
I wasn't expecting much from Jurgen's run when I first bought it many years ago. I bought it to complete between Waid and Brubaker and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Its a solid run and Im glad I can finally get it in omni form.
Never read this era of Cap but I think I need to check it out, the artwork alone looks fantastic. Apart from preferring a black spine to gray this looks like a very well designed omni. Thanks for the overview Omar!
@@garnon is an omnibus of that or just the TPB ... ? ..besides "9/11"? ... I got lost .. I google Volume 4 .. but did not find it ... do you have a link?
@@manuelalvareztoro9523 the whole run is collected in two newish (2016-2017) TPBs called Captain America Marvel Knights. Should be able to find them no problem. Just be sure to get new editions which include 1-16 for vol 1 and 17-32 (& extras) for vol 2. They’re mostly outside of continuity though and not necessary for Brubaker run.
I know it doesn't matter with the video ... but Empyre has been delayed again, the fifth time if I'm not mistaken now let's see if it will finally come out in November or if it will be delayed again 😂. PS: the design of this book is terrific 👏!
@@MarcoDeMicheli. I'm not sure Amazons dates takes precedent over the distributors dates. But it very well could be. It's unusual anymore that they push a book before the very last minute of release
I've actually never read any of this '90s Cap solo stuff. Thoughts, people? I know the Mark Waid run is supposed to be great, but the omni is OOP and allegedly has terrible binding. Still, I feel like I have to read that before the Jurgens run.
Omar! Big news just started reading the scott snyder batman omni court of owls is awesome! Im so excited to continue reading. Due to my love of the bat family i ordered the red hood and the outlaws
Never bought much big 2 (DC and Marvel) comics while growing up, I was really into Image and indies, so I love getting some of these collections! I honestly never cared for Captain America at all until the movies brought him to my attention.
Looks real nice! I was tempted, but decided to go for the Remender Omni instead. Love JRJRs art on that. Will be keeping an eye out for a good deal on this one, hopefully. ‘...and have been included here so Omar would stop bugging us’ lmao
A lot of good that sponsor did lol. I went on that site Cheap Graphic Novels today (12 hours after video was published it says) and that book is already sold out. Had no idea it was a thing either. Dangit. I remember loving these issues when I first saw em and it was my first time reading a solo Cap book. Hecka bummed out I missed the heat on this book. I guess everyone and their mom saw this video and wanted to pick it up too. Think they'll have a restock?
Ohh cool and in stock too I hecka like it. Any idea if the standard edition shares the same spine design? Same logo image and gray background? I had never seen gray before, only black or white spines.
This run was pretty strong at the beginning when Andy Kubert was on art, but then it lost my interest when Jurgens took over art duties as well as writing. Wish Marvel was more consistent about keeping writer & artist combos together longer, but that’s just a fundamental issue with the work-for-hire model of the Big Two vs creator-owned properties. Ah well…
This looks good... i would have bought it if i was not so tight on budget due to the 2 upcoming spidy omnis , hulk omni , wolverine 2 omni ,batman omni and caps death omni... hahh.. someday!
Listen at 0.5 speed to hear what Omar sounds like after he has had a few too many. Listen at 0.25 speed to hear what he sounds like after way too many.
Good evening Omar. Sorry I've been absent for a while, but I had lot to do. Sadly, I didn't enjoy the majority of Captain America Readings, due to probably the fact that i always hated the artists Marvel gave to the series and because I prefer MCU Cap. (The only case where I prefer MCU over comics). This looks very good, through. And, i have to ask you a question if you don't mind: We're not very distant from my birthday, so I want to buy some tpb. Can you help me choose One between this? What should I buy between: Flash by waid Flash by Johns Nightwing by Dixon The New teen titans I also bought Death of the Family and Daredevil Yellow. Thanks everyone for help and Sorry for the long message. Greetings from Italy
I personally have never been a fan of captain America. Similar to Superman I just hated the hype for him and how he was the goody boy. But leave it to none other than Omar, to make me actually want these cap omnis. Marvel needs to give this guy a commission. When he first announced these books I literally commented that I was not interested. Now? I might have a captain America Omni haul. Love you Omar ! My wallet? Not so much
I’ve been waiting for this omni for awhile. Feel like it’s been delayed a couple times. Best Omni reviews in the game
Whether I get this or not, it’s so awesome that they added those issues and have their little disclaimer for all us completionists!

I'm so hyped for this. Jurgens' Thor is one of the best runs the character has ever had and I love Cap.
I like the grey spine, it looks like the white spine from Waid's run is turning black like the Brubaker's one.
Good call... they should do this type of thing with other spines!
Damn, they added more issues and reduced the price? That's an awesome thing to do!
Man, we need a Booster Gold omni by Jurgens. That would be dope!
His HC Vol 1 was gone by the time I knew it was released. Yes please on an omni for Booster
Need a McKenzie Omni, certainly don't want a gap before Grunwald as run
I wasn't expecting much from Jurgen's run when I first bought it many years ago. I bought it to complete between Waid and Brubaker and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Its a solid run and Im glad I can finally get it in omni form.

Tempted to by the waid and jurgens omnibus but have to finish my brubaker collection first.
11:57 my spine has no eye at all like yours, stretched couple times like I always do when I have a new book, but its almost flat, lol.
I read it on MU. I enjoyed it but I am on the fence for a purchase. I am trying to be more judicious with my spending.
Hopefully Marvel will do all their spines like this one. Good job. 👍
That intro was amazing. I might have rewatched a couple times
Yes please collect the Mark gruenwald run! It's so underrated! I'm glad Jurgens is finally getting some respect
Love that the font is legible.
Getting a lot of Cap lately. Vol 3 released last week. Now Jurgens and The Death of Cap reprint...great time to be a Cap fan
"I'm turning into a father." We would still love you if you turned into a mother. Lol
Marvel is awesome for including the three issues between Waid's and Jugen's run. What is the missing gap from Jugen's run to Brubaker's run?
Volume 4, which was post 9/11 and had stories by John Cassaday, Dave Gibbons, etc.

Thanks Marvel i can actually read that spine without a magnifying glass, what a novelty.
well, that's because it's not silver / bronze age
@@Fredsinator Yes indeed, those poor silver age collectors.
Unsung run overshadowed by the drama surrounding Waid's departure. But yeah, it's just as rock-solid as anything else Jurgens has ever done.
I am unaware of said drama. Care to share for the uninformed?
Another wonderfully thorough review, and for future reference, Charest (French) is pronounced “SHAH-rest”.
Sharest… thank you, sir.
@@NearMintCondition For what it's worth, I presumed that it was Shɑ-RAY since I'd heard it mispronounced that way by so many for so long too.
P.S. Omar, can you please do a Cap reading order at some point?
Yes sir. I plan sometime later this year for that
@@NearMintCondition Thank you, good sir!
I've been waiting for this video for awhile
Hope it delivered.

just ordered mine now have to get vol 3 , rick remender, and golden age vol 2 to go
“Basic good-guy-vs-bad-guy” comic book storytelling, you say?
I knew I liked Dan Juergens for a reason.
Hellz yeah!
CVS2 for you background music? Love it!
Damn, you are good. It’s a mix by my friend 2mello
Publishers should normalize adding additional issues even if they’re not written by the named head writer.
If only.
Looks real nice! I was tempted, but decided to go for the Remender Omni instead. Love JRJRs art on that. Will be keeping an eye out for a good deal on this one, hopefully.
‘...and have been included here so Omar would stop bugging us’ lmao
Sadly, Ignacio Calero passed away last year. He was only 43.
Damnit. I had no idea. His art was fabulous. I’m 43 now. So it hits me.

Ah yes, the late nineties, when Marvel came out if their slump, but kicked the X-Men deeper into it.
This is mostly early 2000s material. There are a few 1999 extras, but the Jurgens run began on January 2000.
1st 🥇
Definitely picking this up.
Standard or DM?
Nope
