They're still making Marvel Masterworks. I wish they'd resume DC Archives.

I have the first three Omnibus volumes, and the fourth one will get me to where I started buying the single issues new off the shelves. Although bulky/awkward, I like the value of the Omnibus volumes, and, often, the oversized pages get to take advantages of the latest restoration. For example, many of the Masterworks were redone when they came out with the softcover Masterworks. The newer images then went into the Omnibus volumes.

Omniboo versions?
They sound like fun, but although I'm glad they exist, I have no wish to own them.

Did you also pick up the Golden Age and Atlas Era Cap and Subby books? I own about 30 Masterworks, but only have the Daredevils for a complete set. Mostly I have Atlas Era Masterworks: Journey Into Mystery, Tales to Astonish, Strange Tales, Tales of Suspense, …. I wish Marvel would have finished up Strange Tales and J.I.M. They were just getting to the Kirby and Ditko goodness.

Oh wait… 40 volumes. I forgot that I bought that "Avengers Mansion" collection of ten first volumes of the Silver Age of Marvel books.
The other Masterworks that I've picked up include the two Ant-man volumes, Ka-Zar, Silver Surfer,, Champions, and X-Men #7-8 that collect the original team's guest appearances in other books.

If Simon were to get any Omniboo books, I'd want him to have those two Kirby Monsterworks. I bought 'em because I'll always buy that Marvel Monster material no matter how (and how often) they repackage it. By buying them, I was also hoping to encourage Marvel to go back and finish up J.I.M. and Strange Tales, and possibly a large Ditko Collection. Alas…

For example, many of the Masterworks were redone when they came out with the softcover Masterworks. The newer images then went into the Omnibus volumes. Is there an image that compares the old and new remastering? Probably. I'm just going on the say-so of the Masterworks Forum posters. Apparently, some new material was added and some of the pages were improved or replaced with better source material where available. Cory Sedimeier posted the following info: Quote: I've revisited select issues where the inventory uncovered better-quality source than previous printings on ASMv1-4, the covers to Avengers #1-10 and Hulk #1-6. FFv1-3 are new restoration original to the TPB line. The X-Men v1-3 TPBs are identical to the Omnibus restoration, as are the interiors (story pages) to Hulk v1. The interiors to Avengers v1 are identical to the Classic Avengers comic reprints Beazley edited, and the Avengers v2-3 TPBs are/will be identical to the recent hardcover BTP restoration—same with the upcoming Iron Man v1. Uncanny v1 is identical to the Omnibus restoration and v2 is identical to the recent hardcover BTP. Whenever Cory does a volume, it's worthwhile improvements.

I have the first 3 Golden Age Superman volumes and the first two Batman ones. I want to continue with the Superman but I'm done with the Batman. He gets rather silly until the 70s fairly quickly.

I've been thinking of maybe getting into the DC Omnibus. The Batgirl (but I am annoyed at how expensive it is compared to the others and how they didn't have some of Babs' early appearances from books like World's Finest, Superman, etc. Those were in the Batgirl Showcase volume so they should be in the Omnibus I'm thinking. Plus, having added them would have helped make up for how thin the volume was compare to the price).
Other than that one which I will probably eventually get, I've been considering the early Legion of Superheroes. I want to revisit those and read the ones I've never seen.

I passed on the Batgirl omnibus too for the same reasons. I don't get why it's so much more expensive for far less material.
