I don't mind the book not having Doomfist, but I am really interested in Moira's character. And I think Overwatch gets 3 new heroes every year, so maybe next Christmas their will be a new book... or vol 2. as you say.
Yup Orisa's in it, it actually covers all the way up to the first Anniversary event which is nice since that contains the whole first year of the game. Doomfist I don't miss here much since his design is on the simple but effective end of things (though because of the Numbani map section we do get a tad of the original Doomfist's art) and while Moira would've been nice to have in the book I have seen that Blizzard already put out a lot of her concept and behind the scenes stuff just through their various outlets of information. I think that the Vol.2 idea might be what we see because that's sort of how they played it with the Art of Starcraft 2. First we got the larger book which was for the main starting game (Wings of Liberty) and then later they did another for Heart of the Swarm which was smaller since it was just what was new (and more Zerg focused). I don't know the ins and outs of it but I guess it has to do with Dark Horse and their publishing practices in how they differ from someone like DK (the publisher of the regularly updating Marvel, DC, and Star Wars books).
