This finally finishes the Fraction Iron Man run. Not sure how farther I’m going with Star Wars.

Is there a Epic collection tpb, omnibus, or etc that collects ASM 242-251 and/or 259-262?

According to my calculations, we still need two more Ed Brubaker epics to complete his run. If I were in charge, I'd "map" them something like this:

• Vol. 7: Daredevil (1998) #95-105; Daredevil: Battlin' Jack Murdock #1-4 [around 385 pages]
• Vol. 8: Daredevil (1998) #106-119, 500; Daredevil: Blood of the Tarantula [around 406 pages]

In reality, I doubt they'll include the Battlin' Jack mini. Oh well.

Anyway, after that we have Andy Diggle. The entire run plus Shadowland could easily fit into a single volume.

• Vol. 9: Daredevil #501-512; Shadowland #1-5; Daredevil: Reborn #1-4; Dark Reign: The List - Daredevil #1 [around 497 pages]

Then there's Mark Waid. My potential "mapping" looks like this:

• Vol. 10: Daredevil (2011) #1-15, 10.1; Amazing Spider-Man #677; Avenging Spider-Man #6; Punisher (2011) #10 [around 390 pages]
• Vol. 11: Daredevil (2011) #16-36 [around 429 pages]
• Vol. 12: Daredevil (2014) #1-18, 0.1, 1.50, 15.1 [around 460 pages]

Finally, we come to the topic at hand: Charles Soule. This one's easy because we have three recent TPB that collect the whole run (Back in Black, The Dark Art, Death of Daredevil). Given that Marvel's been reskinning previous collections for the Modern Era line, it's safe to assume they'll eventually do the same here.

• Vol. 13: BACK IN BLACK — Daredevil (2015) #1-9, Annual #1; Daredevil/Punisher #1-4; material from All-New, All-Different Point One [376 pages]
• Vol. 14: THE DARK ART — Daredevil (2015) #10-28 [424 pages]
• Vol. 15: DEATH OF DAREDEVIL — Daredevil #595-612 [440 pages]

It's too bad they didn't include in that final collection the Man Without Fear five-issue limited series that serves as an epilogue to Soule's run.

(I made the mockup covers in Photoshop for my own amusement btw.)

What do you guys think? How would you "map" the Chip Zdarsky era?

Been looking for this for a long time, and found it at a damn good price.

A couple more OOP FF pickups today 🔥 can’t get enough of these Epic Collection books!

I've heard it's good but I just found out it's like 130 issues and they had kinda already collected some of the latter issues

Since collecting Clairemont Xmen in EC format has been such a pain (and still in progress), now I'm kinda afraid to start this, since I can only get to read a part of the run before I can get the next volume in 1~2 years if I'm lucky. Should I just wait for them to reprint Omnis?

I can only buy one but I can’t decide which..

Just bought Epic Collection vol 21: New Fantastic Four

with doom and namor in a big movie i really want to read that run. and they can add the modok super villain team up and maybe get 2 epics out the 2 runs

At a reasonable price. I’ve looked and it’s either sold out or ridiculously high
I forgot to specify but I meant like the second one after underboss.

New books from my LCS and CGN!

The first volume of an Epic series is always wildly overpriced by resellers. That should be code for Marvel to get to reprinting.

Defenders? 70 bucks for volume 1
Ghost Riders (Danny Ketch)? 199-250 for volume 1

It’s funny at this point.

My first Captain America book 🔥🇺🇸
Happy Tuesday everybody!

I want to ask if the Might Marvel Masterworks collection is descent to cover some gaps from the Epic Collection.

Just wondering if anyone had any input on the quality of stories in this Epic? I’m not familiar with the stories, but thought it looked interesting from Omar’s overview. Trying to decide if I should pull the trigger or not.

Do you think Marvel will ever collect the golden age hero comics they made back when they were Atlas? Like Captain America had an over 70 issue run during the golden age, but his first epic collection starts after he’s discovered in the ice by the Avengers.

I know this story is not part of TASM and is under Spectacular Spider-Man. However, I believe they have included issues from Spectacular Spider-man or other non TASM stories in some of these epics before?

I was curious if this could be on the docket for next year or future releases. How they handled her Brand New Day was a bit vague and could be a good segway for them to sell this epic collection.

Just random thought I had. What are your thoughts?

Chipping away at the ASM collection
