I believe the plan is to do a series of Dawn of X volumes collecting each round of issues but still do individual series collections too. It's hard to believe that Marvel wouldn't take that opportunity to double-dip haha.

Vol. 2+3 will be $18. https://www.bleedingcool.com/2019/11/21/it-looks-like-marvel-will-keep-collecting-dawn-of-x-as-one-tpb-series/

I’m tempted to check this out since I’ve only been reading the main one. Are the others any good? 

Picked this up. This is definitely the recommended way to read all of the Dawn of X titles. Every issue is in the correct order of reading which is great as many plots and events in separate titles are mentioned. All the titles are great, except Fallen Angels which is really bad in comparison to the rest. 5 out of 6 great comics is a deal! Also ALL the variant covers are included and that makes up a large part, and it is worth it! 

This is very interesting. I have not followed the X-Men for a while. Should I buy the House of X and Powers of X before reading this?

@botolo Absolutely. From there you can pick up any of the first six series or some of the newer ones coming out like X-Men/FF, Giant-Size X-Men, Children of the Atom, X-Factor, Wolverine, Hellions, and Cable.

All I know is I hate these covers for the trades. All that blank space and giant X, it's so ugly. 

Yes House ofX/PowersofX is pure setup for all the series and the themes, especially on the main title. Right now its only available as a Hardcover but I think the paperback will release later in the summer, All the other series are paperbacks in case you care about that. 

I felt the same at first, but after picking it up I am okay with it. I like that the cover art on the X is brand new art exclusive for the Dawn of X books. Also I like all the variants of all the series collected.
