Years covered
A column "Years covered" should be added like I just did for DC Archive (took a few hours). --Leocomix (talk) 13:40, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

A lot of the dates are wrong...
For example, Astonishing X-Men, The Golden Age of Marvel Comics (wrong name listed as well), and X-Men v 1 all have the wrong publication dates.24.190.34.219 (talk) 05:47, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

OOP
An indication of which titles are out of print would be nice, a simple OOP in the ISBN section would cover it. 24.190.34.219 (talk) 18:27, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Deadpool Minibus
I am a great fan of Omnibuses (or Omniboo, as someone might call them) and Deadpool, but I can't find a mention that the Deadpool Minibus is in fact an Omnibus and not just a funny Deadpool-ish wordplay with the word Omnibus. Of course, we will be sure when the book comes out and it's spine says "Marvel Omnibus", but until then, I shouldn't call it an omnibus, but just a hardcover book named Deadpool Minibus. 85.23.228.230 (talk) 14:08, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

Guardians of the Galaxy Solo classic
The name of the omnibus links to Guardians of the Galaxy (2008 team), but every issue included in the book is from 60's to 80's, which means that the book covers an earlier version of team. So which is it? 85.23.238.234 (talk) 06:30, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

Not an Omnibus
The Wedding of Phoenix and Cyclops is not an omnibus. It is an OHC, I bought it and there is no indication on the spine of the word omnibus nor is it in the liner notes. This is erroneously marked as one on Amazon. See marvel.com, IST or similar comic shops for appropriate verbiage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.16.96.9 (talk) 01:21, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

Wrong contents
Under Namor The Sub-Mariner by John Byrne And Jae Lee the contents listed match exactly with what is listed just above for Ms. Marvel. This is most assuredly an error. Someone has to look up the actual contents of the Namor volume to list them accurately. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.24.34.62 (talk) 11:11, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

New column suggestion - character/group
With the number of title changes lines have over the years, and the large number of books released this table seems to be getting very messy in its ordering. I suggest adding a column on the left for character/group. Within that grouping I would then put the books in chronological order, with spin-offs at the end.

E.g. Spider-man is currently extremely spread out. Under the new suggestion all Spider-man titles would be listed together under "Spider-Man". All the books where the main focus is ASM would be listed in chronological order, followed by books where the focus is largely or exclusively other titles like Untold Tales.

Another suggestion: multiple tables. How about splitting the tables into something like main 616, other superhero universes, Hypborian/Howard, Star Wars, Aliens/Predator, other properties. Events could either be in the main 616 table or a separate table

Would like a column or a note if LETTER PAGES are included. In general, if it was Masterworked there are letter pages included in the Omnibus. Not sure if that is 100% consistent — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C50:17F:71B4:9E2A:D9EB:DA5B:54C0 (talk) 22:19, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Invaders Omnibus
I had just changed the information for the contents of the Invaders Omnibus back to the correct info. Someone changed it to the information from the original solicitation for the volume, but this is incorrect as the published volume omitted content that it was advertised as containing.

In all fairness to whoever changed this, the original solicitation does still appear on a number of online sites, including Amazon (although the current top review on the Amazon UK site points out that the contents are not as advertised). I believe the Amazing Omar noted the omission of the material in his YouTube review.

However, when I originally posted the correct info I did take the time to include a footnote explaining the discrepancy between the two. Oddly the footnote was left when the information about the contents was changed, making the footnote nonsensical!

Please do not alter this without discussing it on the Talk page first. many thanks.

Table of Contents?
Not sure if possible with the current table format, but this page desperately needs a TOC/quick links to the items in the Subject column. 2601:283:4A00:EE40:901E:ACA1:E914:947E (talk) 22:10, 21 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Could do with splitting into multiple tables:
 * Main 616
 * Golden Age (pre-FF)
 * Ultimate
 * Max
 * Howard (Conan, Kull, Kane)
 * Other licensed properties
 * This would then give something to attach the TOC to. And make the table more manageable 90.241.206.81 (talk) 09:45, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Would love to see title-specific shortcuts like on the page Marvel Ultimate Collection, Complete Epic and Epic Collection lines 2601:283:4A00:EE40:4823:AB8A:DE54:EDBC (talk) 22:09, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
 * This can by done by adding an id at the top of each section, such as:
 * -id "Acts of Vengeance"
 * And then at the top of the page adding a link to that id such as:
 * Acts of Vengeance
 * However, it becomes less useful if someone changes the default sort order of the table. Because of that, I haven't attempted to implement. 2601:283:4A00:EE40:89AE:E62B:C7B9:344F (talk) 23:02, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Oops, the reference at the top of the page would be like this (remove backslashes):
 * \[\[#Acts of Vengeance|Acts of Vengeance]] 2601:283:4A00:EE40:89AE:E62B:C7B9:344F (talk) 23:05, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
 * One more correction, the id would be on the row start line (the |-) like this:
 * - -id "Acts of Vengeance" 2601:283:4A00:EE40:89AE:E62B:C7B9:344F (talk) 23:07, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Reorganisation by Vanto7 undone
The major changes to the table, which make it unfilterable and unsortable, have been undone. The changes were discussed on the Omnibus Collectors subreddit and people were horrified by the new table format. The previous version is sorted alphabetically and can be easily filtered and sorted. This table is a major resource for omnibus collectors who need to find information quickly and easily. It is not a history, chronology, or character timeline of the Marvel universe. 90.199.79.82 (talk) 07:38, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
