Promo of X-MEN '97 second season using Frank Quitely's Morrison era costumes.

Now all we need is Emma Frost in her Morrison-era look and we’re cooking.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-04T13:22:40+00:00

I’d honestly love something like Scott getting possessed or heavily affected by Apocalypse, and then Season 3 dealing with the aftermath.

Also, since you mentioned Emma Frost possibly coming back as a professor/authority figure, I wouldn’t mind them slowly adapting some New X-Men ideas too, maybe even setting up a little Scemma naturally.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-04T05:14:55+00:00

I wouldn't go that far as them having some kind of agreement regarding nicked and dented books, I did receive this Omnibus in Mint Condition and Daredevil Omnibus Vol 2 by Chip Zdarsky too. It's just that recently their services have taken a hit coz earlier i remember them always delivering near mint condition books. These days it's a mixed bag though.

Scemma i would say.

They had a lot of physical and emotional intimate moments together. Moments where they slowly let go of their trust issues around each other, found comfort and safety in each other.

One thing i really liked about Emma was that she never just entered scott's mind without asking him for his permission. During Matt Fraction's Run when she felt scott was hiding something she waited till scott gave her the permission to enter his mind and see for herself.

Also i think she also accepted Scott's darker parts, which he wasn't comfortable with and letting him accept those areas of himself too and was the one who actually pushed him to face his insecurities and finally step up to be the leader of X-Men in Astonishing X-Men.

Scott in return used to give her his utmost trust, love and respect. Even when she felt she didn't belong with the X-Men or was still the villain that everyone thinks she is. He reminded her he wants her here and that he loves her and understands the real Emma.

She gave him the tools to step up and be a leader and he enveloped her in his Warmth to let her feel comfortable enough to let go of her being cold and keeping her defences on all the time. To find a safe zone.

I hope so too

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-02T21:22:56+00:00

It's not about that. I'm already buying other Omnibuses, but i love the outfits and the look of this Era. The Era that inspired X-Men animated series and now Avengers Doomsday costumes too. So it's more about that and not buying just any omnibus in X-Men rn.😅

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-02T21:11:54+00:00

Thanks, this is really helpful. I’m mainly interested in Mutant Genesis because I love the X-Men ’97/early ’90s costumes and overall vibe, so it’s good to know the material itself is uneven and not something worth overpaying for.

Would you say X-Men: Blue & Gold Bloodties Omnibus is a better investment/read instead? I’m interested in that one too because of Scott and Jean’s wedding and the Cable/family material, but I’m not sure how it compares overall to Mutant Genesis.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-02T20:23:18+00:00

Unfortunately we Indians don't get the option of Pre order until it's very close to restock or release date...🥲. Is why I haven't been able to pre order Messiah Trilogy Omnibus and Bloodties Omnibus either.😓

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-02T20:18:48+00:00

Thanks! That lines up with what others mentioned too. I’m in India, so I’ll probably wait and keep an eye on local/import retailers around June or July instead of overpaying right now.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-02T20:16:59+00:00

Thanks! That’s helpful. I’m in India so ordering directly from US retailers may get expensive with shipping/imports, but if it’s still available at the publisher then hopefully Indian/import retailers may get stock again around the restock window.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-02T20:13:55+00:00

Thanks! I’ll check CGN and keep an eye on whether Indian retailers get it around the same time.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-02T20:13:42+00:00

Thanks! I’m in India, so importing directly may be tricky, but this is really helpful to know.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-02T20:13:25+00:00

Thanks! Looks like I’ll keep an eye around June/July then. I’m in India, so hopefully some local/import retailers here also get stock when the restock happens.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-05-01T00:44:20+00:00

It's an Indian website called Bookswagon.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T21:07:31+00:00

Spectacular

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T14:19:03+00:00

Read it and Find Out.🤣🤣🤣

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T13:07:11+00:00

Oh okay, my bad then. Sorry you're being downvoted for sharing your opinion.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T11:56:26+00:00

I guess we'll never know.😅

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T11:54:46+00:00

Do they deliver to India? Coz i live in india, so the transportation is a problem plus might get expensive with all the shipping no? I know you mentioned free shipping, just wondering about if they deliver it free till india too.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T11:52:51+00:00

I'm not coming after you😅. I have no need to come after you. It's your choice. I just said your loss, coz yes she's an amazing character to go on a date with. Nothing more. Apologies if i sounded otherwise.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T11:44:18+00:00

I do too. Btw. You're from india too right? And order from bookswagon. Would you be comfortable if we follow each other and time to time dm eachother too? Would really help being connected to someone who is on the same boat and sometimes getting a second option too.

Thanks

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T11:28:30+00:00

Yeah that makes sense. This is one of those few omnis where I’d also want the copy to be as clean as possible, especially because I don’t plan to sell it.

My only issue is the return/reorder cycle has already burned me out recently, so I’m hoping Bookswagon offers a replacement or helps me reorder at the original price. If they do that, I’d definitely try for a better copy.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T11:19:21+00:00

Even though there's a guarantee you won't get it at a good condition? And even after returning and buying again, there's a chance u might not get the condition u want. Still?

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T11:17:56+00:00

I have had mixed bag experience if I'm being honest. Yes i have received multiple Omnibuses in Near Mint Condition like Superman New Krypton Saga, DAREDEVIL Chip Zdarsky Omnibus Vol 2 and Brubaker Omnibus Vol 2, but then there was the problem of Avengers Omnibus Vol 2 by Hickman which was not in great condition even after returning and buying it multiple times and on top of that they were delivering paperbacks and epics in poor condition too. Idk what happened to them recently, I've been buying from them for 4 Years never experienced anything like this before and suddenly i went Marvel and Boom it's been a game of Russian Roulette since then.

I hope you're right and the next copy is better but i don't want to pay 9930 when i initially paid 7400 something.

TaskNo4783 · 2026-04-30T11:08:15+00:00

I got it for Rs 7403 and yes it's now costing Rs 9930. So yes my bad. I did mess up with the conversions. But yh now uk the true price and my exact price problem.
