The Completely Insane and Utterly Comprehensive Marvel Omnibus Guide

The Omnibus is undoubtedly the holy grail of comic book collected editions. While your standard trade paperback usually contains 6 issues, an Omnibus will collect upwards of 30 issues, giving you full classic stories in one awesomely enormous collection. Factor in the fact that they sound like Jack Kirby’s idea of cosmic public transportation, and it’s hard not to fall in love with the Omnibus.

These enormous collections can often be hard to find, and more damningly, are rarely listed in chronological order. Thank heavens I’m here. Within this post you’ll find a chronological guide to every single Omnibus Marvel Comics has ever released. It’s a great way to check out the all-time stories Marvel editorial have deemed worthy of the vaunted Omnibus status, and if you’re a Marvel Unlimited reader, I also have the links (when available) to MU reading!

A quick note about the nearly 80 Marvel Omnibus collections before the list begins.

Many omnibuses are sold out and not being reprinted. This means they occasionally sell for exorbitant values on Amazon and other online retailers. On one hand, this obviously stinks. On the other hand, it makes them rare and collectible. Like a rare piece of art or an NBA franchise, you’re paying a little bit for the pleasure of the product, and a lot for the status of owning one.

Important to note for fans on a budget: you can often get the issues of a story for a LOT cheaper in used trade paperbacks. For example, the Alias hardcover Omnibus will run you around $120. I was able to get 4 trade paperbacks and all 28 issues for well under $40. So again, in some cases the omnibus saves you both time and money. In other cases, it’s purely just cool to have. Do what feels right to you!

Marvel Omnibus List Released in 2018

Note that I’ve added below the Omnibus editions I’ve seen listed from Marvel Comics to be released in 2018. They are sorted in order of chronology.

The Avengers Omnibus Vol. 3

Collects: Avengers (1963) 59-88, Incredible Hulk (1968) 140, Marvel Super-Heroes (1967) 17, Material From Not Brand Echh 12

X-Men: Dark Phoenix Saga Omnibus

Collects: X-Men 97-105, 107-108, 125-138; Phoenix: The Untold Story 1; Material From Classic X-Men 6, 8, 13, 18, 24, 43; Bizarre Adventures 27, What If? (1977) 27

While the Dark Phoenix saga is all there in the existing Uncanny X-Men omnibus editions, it’s admittedly good marketing to call out the saga as an individual collection for newer readers.

Venomnibus Vol. 1

Collects: Venom: Lethal Protector 1-6, Venom: Funeral Pyre 1-3, Daredevil (1964) 323, Iron Man (1968) 302, Darkhawk 35-37, Venom: The Madness 1-3, Venom: The Enemy Within 1-3, Incredible Hulk Vs. Venom 1, Venom: The Mace 1-3, Nightwatch 5-6, Venom: Nights Of Vengeance 1-4, Spider-Man: The Arachnis Project 6, Web Of Spider-Man (1985) 118-119, Spider-Man (1990) 52-53, Venom: Separation Anxiety 1-4, Venom: Carnage Unleashed 1-4, Material From Silver Sable & The Wild Pack 18-19, Venom Subplot Pages

The best combination of a Marvel character’s name and Omnibus.

Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme Omnibus Vol. 2

Collects: Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme 41-59, Annual 2-3; Spider-Man/Dr. Strange: The Way To Dusty Death; Silver Surfer (1987) 67; Morbius: The Living Vampire (1992) 9; Secret Defenders 1-11; Material From Incredible Hulk Annual 18; Namor The Submariner Annual 2; Silver Surfer Annual 5

X-Men: Revolution by Chris Claremont Omnibus

Collects: X-Men (1991) 100-109, Annual 2000; Uncanny X-Men (1981) 381-389; X-Men Unlimited (1993) 27-29; X-Men: Black Sun 1-5; Bishop: The Last X-Man 15-16; Cable (1993) 87

This is a surprising but ultimately very useful Omnibus, as the early 2000’s revival of Weapon X can be qutie confusing.

Runaways by Brian K. Vaughan & Adrian Alphona Omnibus

I would very much like to see this idea replicatd with the non-Bendis tie-in issues for the Secret Invasion event.

  • Hello Dave,

    This page is a wonderful resource, thank you. Now that it's 2022 would it be possible to update this page with all the new omnis that have been released? Perhaps even add in the solicits that have been announced to really flesh this out?

  • Great list!

    My only suggestion would be to add the new Omnibus in both a new list and into your original chronology. Otherwise I am finding myself have to flick backwards and forwards to see if I am missing something,.

  • Thanks for this! Any chance you would know why Marvel has published the Lee/Ditko omnibus and now the Sorcerer Supreme omnibus but have overlooked the Master of the Mystic Arts (70's into the 80's)?

  • So I've compiled a list of the Omnis (and some OHC) I have in reading order (it gets tricky with the big ones like Simonson Thor and Byrne FF). The idea is to be able to read one from cover to cover without spoiling the next one in advance or not overtaking the events of the next one.

    Let me know if you think there could be a better one.

    • I am also curious about this as I am about to do a comprehensive reading of the entire marvel publication history all the way from the sixties and since I plan on borrowing omnibuses from libraries to do it, I would like to know if this is the best way of going about it.

  • Great list. Do you think you could do a comprehensive omnibus guide in chronological order for DC?

  • Hey Dave, i was looking for Marvel Zombies reading order and failed to find it. Do you think it would be a good idea to make one. I think there are a lot of spin-offs and tie-ins in that continuity.

  • Good news! The ALIAS omnibus is being reprinted and will cost much less than $120. Also, those bitten by the Omnibus bug should check out instocktrades and cheapgraphicnovels for deep (approximately 40% off) discounts on many of these titles.

        • I'm with him on this one Dave. Please update the Omnibus list and especially add a guide to upcoming Omnibuses like Fantastic Four Volume Three which is scheduled to come out on May 5, 2015.
          What else is coming down the pike?

  • Hey Dave! If it isn't to much of a bother, can you make a complete reading guide of x-men? Thanks in advance.
