Just read the first one and have this on the way, I couldn’t believe where the 1st one ended so I’m very excited to start the second one! Great video as always!
Thanks Omar. This week has such an insane number of books coming out this one is going to have to wait a couple weeks but it definitely seems like a must have.
Recently got the first volume and now have this one on order and Really excited to start reading it, plan on reading the entire hickman saga with those Avengers reprints coming soon as well
Thanks for the comparison Uncanny Omar. I missed out on the original printings and kinda worried that the new editions would have terrible paper quality. Seems like many older omnis aren't as great or "thick" as I thought they were, paper-wise. It's weird that Marvel hasn't used Canadian printers like DC or others tend to do. A lot of top quality hardcovers come from there.
I can see there's an error in the second credits page that they didn't fix in the reprint: the artist on FF #17-18, #20-21 and #23 is Nick Dragotta, not Giuseppe Camuncoli.
Does Secret Wars [the newer one] have/need an omni? I've heard it had tons of tie-ins and such, besides the main event, and I want to have it alongside this, unless this book has it inside it too. But, I don't know if an omnibus for it is possible, or if I should just buy the event-only OHC, assuming there is one.
Love you, love this book, cant wait to get it next week, but .............. DO I SEE AARON THOR OMNI IN A BACKGROUND !!!!!!!! GIMME PLEASE :) ...... anyway... Like always, thx Omar and Marvel :)
This April (and this week in particular) is just wild for releases: FF2, Gotham Central, War of the Realms, Hickman's X-men, Inferno, Thor by Jason Aaron v1 and Gillen's Vader.
I got Vol 1 but I didn’t pre-order Vol 2. I watched the video to see what’s under the dust jacket and I’ve decided I’ll get the DM cover. I haven’t read any of this run and I know nothing about it so I ran most of the video on mute. lol
This, along with moon knight, cb and wolvie gallery makes this week a tad expensive. Then the whole if April was going to be expensive due to the delays. Nice review. Hope to read this along with vol 1 back to back soon
I heard you mention in this that these Fantastic Four Hickman Omnis come after Annihilation/WoK. Is there a lot I’d be missing if I haven’t read the cosmic saga yet? Or do I need to read Annihilation and the WoK books? Contemplating getting both Fantastic Four Hickman omnis, but wondering if I should wait until I read the DnA cosmic saga.
What would be the best way for Marvel to reprint the rest of Hickman's pre-X-Men Marvel stuff in the oversized HC format? An OHC with both SHIELD series, and a separate Hickman Ultimate Universe mini-omni with Hawkeye, Thor and his Avengers?
Is it true that spines of both volumes of reprinted FF of Hickman's run do not align properly cause each of them has different height of the bottom part? I saw somewhere the picture and couldn't believe me eyes. Please, tell me it was fake.
Bought this on Sunday along with the Captain Britain Omni and the Death Deluxe Edition, should be here by Wednesday, Going to break out my Red silk Smoking Jacket and sit in my leather chair by a roaring fire and plough through them all.
This book is sold out on organic priced books and cheap graphic novels, I cant see it on instock trades or war of the realms will they be on there on the 12th when its officially released ifanyone knows?
Never read these (golden/silver/bronze age nerd here) but I just got them both (1 and 2) because Hickman will be at HeroesCon so I'll get em signed and if I don't like the stories can always flip em easily.
Never been a fan of the four but volume one was a masterful chessboard set up; highly anticipating this volume. This is a top tier vyKING recommendation for anyone looking to get into a solid Marvel book.
Is volume 2 printed on better paper? I’ve almost finished volume one and I keep getting annoyed at the transparency of the paper. It’s the first omni I’ve bought and wish I could have returned. I might sell mine and wait for a 3rd printing.
@@NearMintCondition Well, I have the new printing (2021) of Volume 1, it stated though, printed by Imak Offset, Esenyurt, Istanbul, Turkey but the Vol 2 is the first printing (2014) by R.R Donnelley Asia Printing Solutions, China. I assumed that Vol 2 2nd printing was also done in Turkey, but probably you're right since the market availability of Vol 1, 2nd printing has been delayed by a week or so.
I’m holding both printings of volume 2 in my hand and both are done at the Donnelly printer. I have no idea about the new printing of volume 1 as I didn’t get a copy of that one.
@@NearMintCondition Thanks for the clarification. The said book printed in Turkey, in my inspection, is not as good in quality as the Donnelly version; almost all of the other side of the page have matte surface feel to the touch and the chemical odor of the inks is also quite strong.
Just read the first one and have this on the way, I couldn’t believe where the 1st one ended so I’m very excited to start the second one! Great video as always!
Preach! I flipped through the final pages and the extras with an
audible "naaaaaah" and then double checked the Vol. 2 delivery date
Do you know if this one is gonna get a reprint ?
"The world be damned... Doom endures." MAN I LOST IT
I can’t believe I’m going to have this in my hands soon. It’s what brought me to comics. Ahhhh. So excited. Thanks Omar!
Thanks Omar. This week has such an insane number of books coming out this one is going to have to wait a couple weeks but it definitely seems like a must have.
It’s crazy.
@@NearMintConditionany chance on a reprint any time soon ?? I just read vol 1
Just ordered volume one, so I’ll definitely be down to buy volume two! Can’t wait to read these!
I Can’t wait for you to read it!

Hickmans Fantastic four is one of the most important stories to me personally.
So good to have reprints of Hickman's stories!! great video!
Looking forward to getting mine at the end of the month. :)

What a great review of not just the physical book, but of the actual story and overarching themes Hickman.
I’m so glad Marvel decided to reprint these. Volume 1 was great! Can’t wait for volume 2 to get here. Thx Omar.
Mine shipped today!! Can't wait
Love you, love this book, cant wait to get it next week, but .............. DO I SEE AARON THOR OMNI IN A BACKGROUND !!!!!!!! GIMME PLEASE :) ...... anyway... Like always, thx Omar and Marvel :)

You forgot the Moon Knight Reprint 🥲
My wallet is hurting enough, @@spitzkopflarry6155. Why did you have to bring that one up too?
I believe Aaron’s Thor is now April 26th.
I got Vol 1 but I didn’t pre-order Vol 2. I watched the video to see what’s under the dust jacket and I’ve decided I’ll get the DM cover. I haven’t read any of this run and I know nothing about it so I ran most of the video on mute. lol

Nice review. Hope to read this along with vol 1 back to back soon
Love this series. I don’t think Hickman has beaten this.
So glad I finally now have both volumes! Waited for that 4th trade, but it never came! Now both omnis! :D
When are the Savage She-Hulk Omni, and the Peter David She-Hulk reviews coming, those things been on the back shelf for weeks
In few weeks. I’m a reading machine, but even I have to pump my brakes a bit after this week’s insane releases.
@@NearMintCondition yeah I get that, there are tons of big books this week. It’s good to slow down every so often, have fun
I got the complete collection trades and they released the omnibus reprints. I'm waiting for the fourth volume of the trade.
Waiting on these can't wait also pre orderd king in black omnibus
I really want this omnibus. Any idea when a reprint will happen?
When we getting a reprint??
I heard you mention in this that these Fantastic Four Hickman Omnis come after Annihilation/WoK. Is there a lot I’d be missing if I haven’t read the cosmic saga yet? Or do I need to read Annihilation and the WoK books? Contemplating getting both Fantastic Four Hickman omnis, but wondering if I should wait until I read the DnA cosmic saga.
You can read them by themselves.

I have no idea. I only got this printing of volume 2.
Saw the exact same picture and I‘m afraid as hell. Receiving my copy of vol. 2 next week. I think I can‘t sleep till this moment.
Should I read Annihilation Conquest and War of Kings before jumping into this volume or will I be able to piece things together without it?
You don’t have to. But I strongly suggest reading that era.
Am I crazy or did Omar not do an overview of volume 1? I can't find it.
I didn’t get a copy of it. And it has now sold out.
@@NearMintCondition That's unfortunate . Thanks for the clarification.
i love that spidey suit!!!
And now I want to buy both omnibuses. I enjoyed Hickman's Avengers, Secret Warriors, and Secret Wars.
Question: if I have the epic collections, is this the same material in the omnibus?
Bought this on Sunday along with the Captain Britain Omni and the Death Deluxe Edition, should be here by Wednesday, Going to break out my Red silk Smoking Jacket and sit in my leather chair by a roaring fire and plough through them all.
Does this book contain any spoilers about what happens in the Real of Kings omnibus? I have read War of Kings but not the aftermath yet.
If youve read WoK you are fine reading this.!
@@NearMintCondition thank you!!
so many omnis this month! :)
Looks amazing!
This book is sold out on organic priced books and cheap graphic novels, I cant see it on instock trades or war of the realms will they be on there on the 12th when its officially released ifanyone knows?
It officially comes out the 12th. If all those places are out try Dying Breed Collectors.
@@NearMintCondition thanks I’ll keep an eye out are books put onto in stock on the day of release do you know sorry?
Send him an email to see if he has any left. I know they got their stock already.
The new spine design is so much better
goddamn I'm still waiting for the complete collection vol 4... beeeeeeeeen a few years now
Does this kill any chances of Complete Collection Vol 4 paperback dropping soon?
December
@@NearMintCondition You always come through with the swift answers! Thanks as always!
Something tells me Omar would have fun interviewing Hickman.
I really would!
X-men Omnibus vol 5 ? ? ? Any news on that material getting printed { In Any format - EPICS,omnibus, Etc. } X-MEN GHOST TPB Is EXSPENIVE
Great review
Thank you.
Reprint when
Do we know the artist for the DM cover?
Giuseppe Camuncoli
@@NearMintCondition thank you!!
Never read these (golden/silver/bronze age nerd here) but I just got them both (1 and 2) because Hickman will be at HeroesCon so I'll get em signed and if I don't like the stories can always flip em easily.
Do I need to read vol 1? Or can I skip to vol 2?
Never been a fan of the four but volume one was a masterful chessboard set up; highly anticipating this volume.
This is a top tier vyKING recommendation for anyone looking to get into a solid Marvel book.
Damn looks like everyone is getting vol 1 late
Old spine looks much better...
shame that the FF reprints have mixed printers, the first one is just not my jam
Is volume 2 printed on better paper? I’ve almost finished volume one and I keep getting annoyed at the transparency of the paper. It’s the first omni I’ve bought and wish I could have returned. I might sell mine and wait for a 3rd printing.
The way vol 1 doesn't match 2 is disgusting
I have no idea. I only got a volume 2 to review.
Comment for the algorithm
Thank you so much
I'm getting this for the art. I loved secret wars and not a fan of Infinity and his Avengers run.
Marvel could have printed vol 1 & 2 in one thick volume just like they could have daredevil by brubaker and waid
The old printing is printed in China, whereas the new one is in Turkey.
The new printing is printed at the same printer in China. I talked about it on the video.

Nobody used that Bucky term when it comes to characters being dead.
Not anymore.
@@NearMintCondition They definitely did back in the 1970s.
