Sorry Omar, but just like when UXM5 was announced (it should have been the announcement of the year), this one is a dud. Marvel can spin the "giving us the option" bs all they want - we didn't get an option. We got given vol. 5. And now they're expecting us to pull out our wallets again for literally the same book with all the stuff we said it was missing originally. I'm out of this game. These cynical cash-grabs have lost me. The cost of these books aren't going down, and the cost of living sure is going up. Marvel have completely disrespected us with this crap.

This should be my favorite announcement OF ALL TIME, since Dazzler my #1 most--wanted omnibus of all time! However, I can't help but agree with many other commenters about how gross and cynical it feels that Marvel is soliciting this Mutant Massacre Prelude omnibus AFTER UXM Vol. 5 and X-Factor. Marvel's omnibus program is generally so well-mapped and thoughtful that it is truly a rare thing for any of their choices to feel like they are taking advantage of us as consumers, but this is the rare one that does I don't think one bad decision makes them EVIL, but a lot of people spent real dollars on a book they didn't necessarily want because they heard this book would not exist - and that has real world ramifications. Perhaps Marvel should have simply announced that there would be definitively TWO SEPARATE MAPS for this SPECIFIC material way back when they announced Volume 5 (rather than just hinting that the MMW omni line and the Event line would diverge). Unfortunately, this will be an eternal thorn in the side of a particularly dedicated group of fans.

If having "two diverging options" to collect everything between UXM Vol. 4 and the Mutant Massacre Omni was always the plan, why stop the UXM Vol. 5 Omni at Uncanny X-Men #209??? Why not collect through Fall of the Mutants or even farther? They did that to give the appearance that the definitive gap filler was going to be UXM Vol. 5 and X-Factor Vol. 1. Now they turn around six months later and give everybody what they originally wanted. Very cold-blooded. I don't think it makes sense to have a short-term boost in sales at the expense of your customer base, but Marvel doesn't seem to care. They're printing Omnis to make money, and so they are content to intentionally mislead people. Thankfully this announcement doesn't affect me because I haven't purchased UXM Vol. 5 or X-Factor Vol. 1, so I'll just skip them both for the MM Prelude Omni. But it still looks really bad. That being said, this is why I don't pre-order books. I always wait until these books go on sale for at least 50% off, and many go on sale for 60%-65% off. You just need a little patience.

Honestly I hope they take a bit more time before releasing a Generation X omnibus to restore their source material better. There are some... questionable scans in the Epic release that I hope eventually get replaced with better versions. I only hope we don't have to wait for the Masterwork line to catch up to the 90s in order for it to happen.

That was painful. Would have much preferred the prelude omnibus to UXM 5, but I clearly won’t be buying it with volume 5 already on my shelf. I rarely complain, but this is pretty egregious gouging. Happy for folks who wanted a Dazzler omnibus.

Right, the whole reason I got UXM 5 was because I didn't think they'd make something like this. I thought they'd only start diverging into stuff I didn't need with a Vol. 6.

Add me to the chorus that this is a garbage move on Marvel's part. Why would ANYONE want the Uncanny X-Men Vol. 5 for the same price point as X-Men Mutant Massacre Prelude Omnibus when the new omni has ALL of the volume five content plus the rest of the content (notably X-Factor 1-8) that we were clamoring for, for the same price? If Marvel wanted to do the right thing here, it would let suckers like me who fell for their line on Vol. 5 trade their Uncanny Vol. 5 for this one. Now I am stuck with Vol. 5 and the previous event omnis, AND the need to buy the X-Factor omni just to get issues 1-8!!! This is a pretty shameful move on Marvel's part releasing two versions of basically the same omni, only with the preferred one months later. Come on, Marvel.

I generally try to be positive about these announcements even if it's not something I'm interested in or if I already own the material included. Deciding what gets included and what gets left out can be a challenge when mapping some of these books and you'll never please everyone. But a year ago Marvel said no to including the X-Factor issues in UXM Vol 5 only to turn around and include them here anyway like they knew they could have in the first place. I was lucky enough to grab a copy of the first X-Factor epic at the time so I filled that gap in my collection. I'm sure so many others weren't as lucky. I get it. Marvel is a business and they exist to make as much profit as possible. But this move is just gross.

They really could’ve just stuck anything X-Factor prior to Mutant Massacre into the Uncanny line (split into Vol 5 & 6 if need be) under the idea that they’re still the OG X-Men (they end up X-Men again anyway🙃) & just go from there. This would afford more time, money and effort into working on merging or rebranding *more of* the OHCs & the post Inferno period, which seems to be more likely than ever given Mutant Massacre now has a “Prologue”. The way they’ve gone about all this is just so jumbled that I’m low key trying to wrap my head around how to go about getting all this stuff in the most efficient way possible already having Uncanny 1-5 & Mutant Massacre-Inferno. Bruh.

@NutritiousNutt Well obviously you're correct that it isn't meant for me since I have all the material announced in other books. But that is only because Marvel gave us the impression that it wouldn't be so convenient to own all the material in collections another way. I have Mutant Massacre, Fall of the Mutants, Inferno Prologue, and Inferno in omnibus format. So I absolutely would have purchased this if I didn't already own UXM 5 and the X-Factor epic. I would have much preferred a single oversized book for everything. In September 2022, Omar posted a video where he talked to Marvel and asked them to include X-Factor 1-8 in the UXM 5 omnibus. They said no. A year later, they announce what is basically a more complete and comprehensive version of UXM 5. These collections take time to put together. This isn't a decision they only made a week before giving NMC the okay to post this video. They knew exactly what collectors wanted and pulled this stunt anyway. It feels like bait and switch. Just because it doesn't affect me this time, I can still sympathize with those it does affect. And who's to say they won't keep doing this in the future with other books? It's a bad precedent and makes me hesitant with my Marvel purchases going forward.

Ok, so if you already own Uncanny 1-5, Mutant Massacre, Fall of the Mutants and Inferno Prologue Omnis, to get the 13 issues not yet in an Omni, you can decide between the Mutant Massacre Prelude Omni (which makes Uncanny 5 omni unnecessary) or X-Factor 1 Omni (which has issues from the three event omnis but is the only X-Omni for Secret Wars II #5 introducing Boom Boom and Mephisto Vs #2). Would have been nice to know before buying Uncanny 5 because the choice would have been a lot easier.
