At this point I'm just annoyed. The Infinity Gauntlet collection had one glaring flaw...all the tie-in issues were placed at the back of the omnibus instead of being placed in chronological order in relation to the main series. The one redeeming quality is that all the LEAD UP to the main series was placed where it was supposed to.
Not so with both Infinity War and Infinity Crusade. Not only were the issues from the main series placed right at the front of the volume, but all lead-up to it was completely left out. And AGAIN, the tie-in issues were placed at the back, not in chronological order. This book was $125 ($250 for both). $125 and Marvel couldn't take the time to place the issues in the correct order? Completely lazy and absolutely no reason for it. Anyone reading this for the first time will almost certainly get confused by the format and where each issue falls in the grand scheme of things. Marvel can (and has) do much better than this and for this amount of money I'd expect it to BE better.

Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2021
I remember reading the Infinity Crusade when it first came out 15 years ago and thought it was meh and that it was another money grab from Marvel. In my mid 20s at the time, I didn't have the cash flow to buy all the crossovers and only purchased the main six issue limited series and the related Warlock Chronicles and Warlock and the Infinity Watch issues. I knew I was missing some plot lines but did not realized to what extent. Reading only the main 6 issue limited series and the related Warlock titles, it seemed like the story was choppy at best and hence thought it was meh. Now, after reading the main story and all the included cross overs, I have new appreciation for it. Jim Starlin remains one of my favorite writers.The best part about this omnibus is the amount of material included. The six issue limited series, the related Warlock tiles, and all the side crossover issues. This is as complete as it gets. Another thing I like about this omnibus is the binding. As you can see from the pictures, the spine binding is superb, much better than DC omnibuses which had terrible binding. The pages are thick and the overall book is sturdy.However, this omnibus, like Infinity Gauntlet and Infinity War omnibus, the material is NOT presented in reading order. Only the 6 issue limited series, Warlock and the Infinity Watch and Warlock Chronicles issues were presented in reading order. All other crossovers are shoved to the back thus reading and making sense of the entire storyline a bit difficult. I wished Marvel had organized the omnibus in reading order so fans can have a better reading experience.

Reading those individual issues won't be the same. Not only does this omnibus collected all these issues together, but the issues are placed in order of reading so that by reading cover to cover, you get the complete story. The movie Avengers 3: Infinity War is based on this story arc. Must have and a must read before watching the movie!
