There are more to come before the end of the year. Then they will be done, all right.

Uncanny X-Men volume 5 scheduled for June 2023. I’ll add that one. Also X-Men 2099 Omni for 2023. Not sure about that one.

Count me in as well for Uncanny X-Men Omnibus, vol. 5.

I am not a big Claremont fan, i read some of Uncanny X-Men Omnibus, vol. 1 and it was weak. Why do i still get it ?... May be it gets better at the further parts, i mean it is such celebrated run... It can't be all as bas as at the begining right ?... But i don't feel like reading it anyway, the first vol. as far as i read was such a disappointment.

For me, Claremont?s run doesn?t hold up. His writing is bombastic and overblown, and he?s too much in love with the sound of his own voice and writing. The writing is far too expository. When I first read his X-Men I loved it. I?ve got all the Omni?s that complete his and John Byrne?s run and it was just painful getting through them.

If i make my consturactive criticism, the adventures were pretty forgetable. I bearly remember a badly executed Lovecraft rip off horror adventure and X-Men teamed up with lepricons in an medieval castle againt some villain named Black Tom or something, it was rediculous. Black Tom ? Lepricons ?!?!? so unimaginative. The dialog was very out dated and unintelligent, even if i kind of don't get the nuance of english dialog sometimes as a foreigner, i could get that it was dated and unintelligent.

Anyone pick up the Luke Cage Omnibus? I’ve got all the Cage Marvel Masterworks to date and wondering if I should trade up.

Does this one contain letters pages? Also, is the dust jacket binder the tradition omnibus black or is it white like many of the newer omnibuses?

Thanks.
