It’s the most wonderful time of the year for Marvel Omnibus fans – time for the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 13th Annual Secret Ballot! This post explains every Carnage & Venom omnibus that does NOT exist – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.
For the next two weeks, I’ll be covering Marvel’s entire publishing history by mapping missing omnibus volumes to fill in every gap in your Marvel oversize shelf! That’s all leading to the kickoff of the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 13th Annual Secret Ballot on Near Mint Condition on April 28, 2025.
This year we’re getting one of the most massive Venom omnibuses – both in physical size and in impact on filling the gaps in his oversize coverage. The Agent Venomnibus will collect the entire run of Agent Venom both in Earth and in space from 2011 to 2015! I have a few quibbles with some extra content it could have included (including the Klyntar origin from Guardians of the Galaxy (2013), but few people suspected that Marvel would push to fit Venom: Space Knight (2015) into this book and that’s exciting!
What does that mean for Venom’s coverage in omnibus? We’re just two books away from unbroken coverage from 1994 to 2021, and then we can continue with two more books to reach the present day! Meanwhile, in Carnage Omnibus news, it’s time for both a “Volume 0” to establish his origins and a Volume 2 to continue collecting his comics from 2017 to present.
If you’re not sure of what to vote for, stick around for a list of books vetted by a gang of the biggest mapping nerds on the internet with explanations from yours truly – keeper of the most-definitive guides to Marvel’s collected editions on the planet.
Or, if you don’t care about omnibuses, just use this post to learn about Marvel’s history and find some great comics to read!
