Flame on the trail headed for the powder keg
I intend to collect all the X-comics worth grabbing. I'm looking on advice on what my priorities should be for picking things up. Here's a basic list of things I'm gonna get started with, starting from the top down.

Remender Uncanny X-Force
http://amzn.com/0785185712

Claremont Omnibuses vol 1/2
http://amzn.com/0785185690
http://amzn.com/0785185720

Whedon Astonishing part 2 (I already have the first collection. I actually have all of this except the giant-sized ending in floppies.)
http://amzn.com/0785161953

Morrison New Omnibus
http://amzn.com/0785165053

Milligan X-Statix (I know this isn't really related to other X-books but I read it from the library and it was really fun.)
http://amzn.com/0785158448

How long are Marvel omnibuses typically in print? I notice there's only 4 X-Statix in stock. Would this be very hard to find once Amazon is out of copies? Should I hurry to buy X-Force before it's out of print or something?

Outside of those two omnibuses, what else would I need to more or less complete the good Claremont X-men stuff? Will an omnibus volume 3 ever make its way to print?

Am I missing any fun X-books? I'd like to collect in as large chunks as possible, and Hardcover whenever it's available.

How is the Marvel "Epic Collection?" I've always loved Moon Knight and have the first two volumes of essentials. I'd jump at the chance to own some of that stuff in color is this what I've been looking for?

Is there any way to get Don McGregor's Jungle Action Black Panther stories in print? Any word on a BP epic collection or anything like that?

Are they on Unlimited?

I haven't been into comics that long. How often does Marvel re-print Omnibuses? I've been on a Daredevil kick and I'm one of those weirdos who loves physical books. The odds have to be pretty good that at least the Bendis gets a re-print in the next few years with the Netflix push, right? I've been holding off on owning physical copies of Waid for an Omnibus, too. We'll see that sometime in a couple years I expect?

Are the omnibuses usually a good deal? I guess I could just go with OSHC for Waid.

I prefer the OSCH. They are easier to read and if you buy the three Waid books online it will cost you $40-60 bucks for about 40 issues of comics.

Yeah, I'm just being a dumbass. I'll go for paperbacks and OSHC. Thanks, guys.

What TPB or HC would I buy to fill the void between Uncanny X-Men Omnibus 2 and X-Men Ghosts? I'm looking for issues 154-198 I guess?

Does Marvel put everything into OSHC?

I'm interested in collecting Might Avengers and, later, Cap and the Mighty Avengers. It looks like they've got some stuff out in TPB right now, should I pull the trigger or wait for a better edition?

How is Inferno Prologue? I've kinda wanted to pick that up, but I've only read the first two Claremont omnibuses.
