If it was Tyrant, there would be more anime.
Theres a Avengers Time Runs Out OHC coming out 7/6 that collects Avengers 35-44 and New Avengers 24-33
http://www.previewsworld.com/Catalog/JAN160924
Are there any other OHCs that come before this one? This is the first one ive seen that collects both series in one book so far and I would like to get the first 2 if they are available. Id rather not got the individual trades.

That contains what was in the four individual TRO volumes. Which is what directly leads up to Infinity. Whatever came before that was just the standard Avengers and New Avengers Marvel NOW series.
What is up with the numbering? The Infinity Hardcover says it includes: COLLECTING: Infinity 1-6, New Avengers 7-12, Avengers 14-23, Infinity: Against the Tide Infinite Comic 1-2
Did Avengers and New Avengers numbering change mid run?

Are you sure this is oversized? Avengers v6 ends at #34 and New Avengers v4 ends at #23. So this looks like everything from there to Secret Wars.
Marvel needs to release these as omnibuses with the correct reading order like the did with Hickman's FF.

Reading Messiah Complex and I'm confused: why were Gambit and AoA Sunfire on the Marauders? They're supposed to be good people, but they're working for Sinister?
It is. Was noted as Oversized in their catalouge.

So were the other Avengers/New Avengers HCs oversized too?
Yes.
Freezasaurus

Yeah, that had to be it. I think that was when they switched from Marvel NOW to All-New Marvel.
That was a weird story in hindsight. That was the story where everyone was obsessed with saving the mutant race, yeah?

Hickman's Avengers/New Avengers kept the same numbering up until it ended actually

Only just noticed they're releasing a hardcover collecting the Lando, Leia and Chewbacca mini-series'. Wasn't a big fan of Leia's but it would be quite nice to have the set in one book.

That's what I thought too but from the way the Infinity Hardcover is numbered it makes Time Runs Out sound like it takes place after Infinity leading up to Secret Wars.
They just need to do an Omnibus for this run or even 2 separate omnis with the correct reading order.
Would also like a Snyder Batman Omnibus but it seems like that won't happen till atleast next year.

It does.
Infinity hardcover collects Avengers 14-23 and New Avengers 7-12
The Time Runs Out hardcovers are the end of the run, collecting Avengers 35-44 and New Avengers 24-33. Time Runs Out is the last thing that happens before Secret Wars.

Gambit and Sunfire were turned into two of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse during the ending parts of Milligan's X-Men run. They were turned back to "normal" with the help of Mr. Sinister. Not sure about Sunfire, but Gambit's true reasons for working with the Marauders is actually a reveal later on.

Somehow only slightly better than that cover for Shattered Empire lol

Ok I thought so. Thanks for clearing that up.

I have a confession to make. My entire Marvel knowledge before I started the reading order was completely based on the following
- 90s Cartoons
- Marvel Cinematic Universe
It's true. I'm glad I started to read the comics though!

Don't you see? That was their plan all along.

That's a damn good long con! Those 90s Cartoons though, what a great part of growing up they were. Every Saturday Live & Kicking and Going Live

At least the Shattered Empire cover was one image instead of three of them cropped and shoved into boxes.

Why must Ramos draw all of the New X-Men with massive ass gauntlets and boots? Yeezus
A new mutant baby was born after M-Day, so basically everyone was trying to kill everyone because the Purifiers are a bunch of assholes. Also time travel
Gracias

This community is to blame! It's strange as it's led to me and a friend talking about which comics should become TV shows now haha

Storm, the Queen of Wakanda, carried a goddamned spear?! FUCKING YOOOOOO WHY DIDN'T SHE KEEP THAT SHIT?!

Messiah Complex is pretty good so far. Just fucking everything is fucked up. Purifiers, Reavers, Predator X, Cable, ONE, three teams of X-Men
I think they already are
Freezasaurus
Member
Yeah, it's one of the better X-Men events in recent memory. I read it years ago. It also leads into Messiah War and then Second Coming.
Of the three, I thought Messiah War was the weakest.

I'm reading them to compliment Kyle and Yost's X-Force run. Messiah Complex > X-Force Complete Collection Vol. 1 > Messiah War > X-Force Complete Collection Vol. 2 > Second Coming.
After this all I need is Second Coming. Messiah War was good but it was so damn bleak and depressing
WOOOOOOOOOOW

It's an ancient story and I wouldn't have commented if there wasn't someone in the thread specifically reading an event that came before it.
Wasnt aware of this, would have done this when I would have read all posts.

He put a spoiler tag on it. Maybe you should do that on your quote too...
He altered it already
BKatastrophe

Haha it's fine. I don't care. Spoilers don't bother me, especially in comics. I'll avoid them if I feel I really want to or need to
I think I covered it pretty well
I loved Messiah Complex/Messiah War/Second Coming. I think that was the last time I genuinely enjoyed all the X-books. It gets a lot of flack, but Kyle & Yost's X-Force run was by favourite of the lot.

It's all been really good to me so far, which is great. Good to have a good X-book to wash out the taste that was Daniel Way's Astonishing X-Men run

I find it usually helps to at least read the posts you're replying to. Gives a little context.
