My most anticipated Omni I’ve the year! King in Black was the first marvel comic I bought at my lcs so I’ve always wanted to go back and read the series from the beginning!
LETS GOOOOOO !!! One of my most anticipated omni’s of the year !!! Can’t wait to re-read this story once again in omnibus format ! Donny Cates killed it with this run ! And Ryan Stegman on artwork ?!?! Sheeeshhhhh ! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I bought this book from OrganicPricedBooks and I'm so excited to get this run in one complete package. It's one of my favorite modern Marvel runs and my favorite "Venom" run. For those interested in picking this up, be aware that this seems to divide longtime "Venom" fans. Some fans love the changes and new lore while others thought it ruined Eddie Brock and Venom all at once. Mileage may vary, but I encourage everyone to try it for yourselves by reading the first six issues titled "Rex" and see if you enjoy it.
I'm sad they changed the DM covers. The one I originally pre-ordered was really cool and I didn't even realise they changed until I checked my order earlier this week. Having said that I am glad to FINALLY get my hands on this after all the delays.
both of the original solicited covers are better than what they eventually went with. i think they changed to crosspromote with a card game or something; these images are already circulating so they're probably trying to cash in off that. its a shame fans didn't raise a stink around this like they did with the mcfarlane cover switch (that marvel ended up sending out the replacement og covers for). between cover changes, surprise spines, tp paper and mystery bindings marvel has lost my preorders. i still love you, but you gotta treat me right
I have the 3 OHC + Absolute Carnage + King in Black Omnibus. I am only missing #13-#15 because I don't have War of the realms Omni. Probably will just pickup TPB for those issues.
I really enjoyed the first trade a couple of years ago so I’m looking forward to reading the rest of this run. Are we going to see a knights of pendragon overview this week?
I'm really looking forward to getting this one when my order finally ships this month, as the mapping does seem as ideal as you could hope for a nice read through the story. I will say that there are two issues I'm surprised ended up left out of this one - Web of Venom: Venom Unleashed, which takes place approximately after the first arc and is more lead up to Absolute Carnage, and Web of Venom: The Good Son, which takes place after Absolute Carnage and has more lead up for King in Black and a character that shows up soon after. While neither are super important, both of them would have fit in fine with the overarching story in this omnibus, and the first was even written by Ryan Stegman, so it's a little unfortunate they seem to be orphaned now. Overall though, this looks like a really well designed omnibus, especially compared to the King in Black mess.
I want it so badly! My money is waiting for tomorrow anxiously! Already got Venom Unleashed, Absolute Carnage, King in Black, and even the single issue of Cult of Carnage. Cannot wait to read the entire set in order...
This might be the first time I triple dip. I started getting these trades and around trade 3 or 4 my apartment building burned down. I picked up the HCs but still continued with the trades. I couldn’t wait. I need the collection to match so I picked up the next two HCs anyway. Thinking an omnibus was way down the line. Now I’m picking up this omnibus tomorrow. I’ll donate the HCs to my local book box
Thank God for the mapping because I hate when they do shit like they did with king in black / flash point. Like tell the story don't make it a collection that doesn't make sense unless you flip through the book.
I’m getting this for sure! I only have the first volume of the Venomnibus, I wanted to get the other two but budget at the time was an issue. Hopefully we see a reprint of both of them down the road.
I've really wanted to get this since it was announced, but since I already have the 3 OHCs and the Absolute Carnage omnibus (and a War of the Realms omni on the way), I just ended up getting the King in Black ominibus instead. _Honestly? I STILL kinda want a copy, lol. I just friggen' LOVED this run._
Hey! Wanted to ask some totally unrelated questions... There is a Savage Avengers Omnibus coming next year, and Conan is one of the main characters? Is this Omni going to be affected by the loss of the Conan license? For example if it won't be reprinted or something like that. The other question is about the upcoming Genis-Vell by PAD Omnibus. Is there any chance it could be updated to include the 2022 Genis-Vell: Captain Marvel miniseries? It was written by Peter David after all (Kind of like how they added the Gamma Flight issues to the Immortal Hulk Omni after they were told) Thanks in advance!!
Regarding your question about "Captain Marvel: Genis-Vell by Peter David Omnibus": I don't think they're including the current miniseries in there. They left out another miniseries apparently too.
@@mawinstallation6626 reprints of Savage Avengers, past the main release? I don’t think so. From what I’ve read one reason they still can release it because the solicitation for the comic was made before the rights changed hands. However, the initial release should still have a green light. Hope someone more knowledgeable can also confirm this for you!
It seems like when you are talking you focus on one thing and you get distracted on another just like on 12:16 😂 jk lol.... I wanted to hear what other issues that have the story Absolute Carnage. I believe the rest of the story is in the Miles Morales Omnibus if I'm not mistaken..... This seems like a very good Omni with awesome mapping. I prefer the standard cover with all the heroes behind Venom and Knull in the sky.
Great review. This is in transit to me right now and I can't wait to re-read. Donny Cates has been standout writer among the current lackluster crop, and his Venom was so awesome.
hey quick question, whats the diff b/w Venomnibus by David Michelinie and Venomnibus by Donny Cates. And where do i need to start reading venom(only omnibus) please do reply am simply confused.
It's still considered a Venomnibus by Marvel which is odd... as the inside of the book states that it is, so I'm not sure why they didn't go with the logo on the spine.
So wait how bad is the double dipping if I own the Absolute Carnage Omni but plan on getting King in Black + The latest Venom Omnibus? I'll need to look this up online, feels like some triple dipping but I think I'm going for it anyhow!
By far the Best omni of 2022/23… more like this please… Immortal Hulk omni, spidey 2099 and wolverine vol 3 is promising to be great! What a year for releases… just waiting on the reprints of X Force and Deadpool and X force! Keep me up to date Omar!
A very self contained and entertaining run. You don't need to have comprehensive understanding of Marvel universe/history to enjoy it. I especially like the dynamics between Eddie and his son, which gives me a strange last of us vibe. A must buy!
If I have the Absolute Carnage Omni, War of Realms Omni and Get the Venom Omni - does that cover most of the BIB omni material? I have already read the event on release with most of the tie ins. If KIB was mapped properly I would have gotten in a minute regardles of double and triple dipping. How much would I be missing with the three omnis I mentioned?
Seems like the US are lucky as over here in the UK practically no outlets seems to have this in stock anywhere in the country. Ordered this on Amazon UK a month ago for the 13th Dec release date and still no stock. And Amazon UK's alternative is to buy from Amazon US. And as I got it for a great low price seems like I'm in for a looooong wait *sigh*
If you're going to read both this and the King in Black omni, you want to read this one first, since King in Black is the dramatic finale to this run collected here.
Anyone have this omnibus? Im getting the comics seperatly and would like to know the order of the read through for this omnibus To know what comics i need. Can someone help with this?
Not sure what the deal is, but the standard edition cover you show is the standard edition cover for King in Black, despite what the titlecwriting says. My standard edition cover for this Venom book is neither one of the covers you show. So something is wack. Granted my Venom book is shipping right now, but if it comes with the image you show, it means my King in Black and Venom by Cates have the exact same dust jacket image. (I looked it up, my standard edition cover should come with the cover from issue #10 of the floppies).
@@NearMintCondition hmm, well I've got both books in the mail as we speak, I'm honestly not sure what to expect now. It's not uncommon for standard edition book retailer to show consumers the wrong cover images. I don't really care what I get, but it will be interesting to find out. Thx Omar. Cheers.
I wasn't going to get this but I randomly picked up Absolute Carnage and King in Black in trade last week and the art was so beautiful I just gotta have this omni on my shelf now
Marvel, we need a Venom by Rick Remender omnibus PLEASE!
I'd have preferred that to this book. I really liked Cates on Thanos and was looking forward to this run, but it didn't click with me.
Yeeees! Not just Remender, even thou his issues were the better ones, I prefer the whole Agent Venom run in 2 omnis!
Remender & Bunn! Need that whole run in one big boy Omni
@@snoopy4749 Luckily I got the Bunn complete collection years ago.

One of the good modern runs. I have the OHCs but will gladly upgrade to this Omni. Great to see that the issues are in correct order also!
Cant wait to get my copy and read this! I am a donny cates venom virgen so this is gonna be a blast to read
I bless you for introducing walt's comics. I got X factor vol 2 thanks to them. Best packaging I've ever seen. Top quality. Love it
Been anticipating this Omnibus for ages now, definitely my most anticipated of the year, thanks for doing this
I’m beyond thrilled this is in proper reading order. Was going to pass but now this is an instant buy.
Thank god that the book is in reading order I have been looking forward to this 🤩
Such a good run.👍
@@stephentheshywarrior2759 yep I am looking forward to reading it all the way through this time
I'm sad they changed the DM covers. The one I originally pre-ordered was really cool and I didn't even realise they changed until I checked my order earlier this week. Having said that I am glad to FINALLY get my hands on this after all the delays.

I bought both KIB AND VENOMNIBUS what do you suggest for me to read first?
I have the 3 OHC + Absolute Carnage + King in Black Omnibus. I am only missing #13-#15 because I don't have War of the realms Omni. Probably will just pickup TPB for those issues.
Wish you would do a show on the five best venom omnibus, or should say rankings of the venom on the bus books
I woke up just now and went "Venomnibus overview" and there it is lol. Cant wait to get my copy.
I really enjoyed the first trade a couple of years ago so I’m looking forward to reading the rest of this run. Are we going to see a knights of pendragon overview this week?
It’s finally out… cant wait for it to show up
There it is!! 😱
Finally! Been waiting on this overview!
This is the greatest venom story EVER!!!!
Sooooooooo excited for this, looks awesome, great overview as always!
Mines in the mail! Really excited for this one…the delays from July until now were killing me 😆

Do i need to read v1 2 3 before reading this or is this a standalone?

It doesn’t have the Conan name in the title, so it shouldn’t be affected
From what I’ve read around, no. Because SA solicitation was placed before losing the rights.

Venom reading order video?

hey quick question, whats the diff b/w Venomnibus by David Michelinie and Venomnibus by Donny Cates. And where do i need to start reading venom(only omnibus) please do reply am simply confused.
Hell yea I'm getting this one I was waiting for this one.
Hi Is there a venom the hunger epic collection ? Or a seperate book collecting all issues ? Thanks.
The cover looks great
Why are there 2 different direct market covers? There's another Variant where he's holding the skull
There is only one. The one I showed in the video. The other got canceled.
Thank you! I was confused.
It's still considered a Venomnibus by Marvel which is odd... as the inside of the book states that it is, so I'm not sure why they didn't go with the logo on the spine.
Hey Omar you think they will every reprint volume 3? That's the only one I'm missing 👀
When moonknight's black white and blood treasury edition is released, you should review all of em at once.
Is the Silver Surfer Black included in this omnibus? I haven't finished the video as of yet.
No it’s not.!
Thanks for the video Omar I was waiting for it! But before watching it I just wanna say you spelled "Ryan" wrong in the title 😝
So wait how bad is the double dipping if I own the Absolute Carnage Omni but plan on getting King in Black + The latest Venom Omnibus? I'll need to look this up online, feels like some triple dipping but I think I'm going for it anyhow!
By far the Best omni of 2022/23… more like this please… Immortal Hulk omni, spidey 2099 and wolverine vol 3 is promising to be great! What a year for releases… just waiting on the reprints of X Force and Deadpool and X force! Keep me up to date Omar!

That's great to hear! I was wondering if this was self contained enough, since I never read any solo venom book.
If you buy this do you also need king in black omnibus and absolute carnage omnibus?
This has more contents than king in black. Reading king in black directly is confusing.
Pass for me
So this technically collects Donny Cates entire run? All the stories in this book?
Correct.
If I have the Absolute Carnage Omni, War of Realms Omni and Get the Venom Omni - does that cover most of the BIB omni material? I have already read the event on release with most of the tie ins. If KIB was mapped properly I would have gotten in a minute regardles of double and triple dipping. How much would I be missing with the three omnis I mentioned?
That’s all you really need.
@@NearMintCondition Thanks!
What happened to the original cover design they were going for with Brock holding the head of “venom”?
They switched the covers to these about two months ago.
How about a review about the new Absolute Swamp Thing by Bernie Wrightson and Len Wein?
When I get it. For sure
@@NearMintCondition Thank you, and Merry Christmas!
You as well!
Got my copy early last week disappointed that they changed the King in black dm cover
Is the venomnibus in the good reading order?
I think it is but my english is soso
It is.
Do I read this or the king in black omnibus first?
This! Also includes KIB
@@NearMintCondition Oh well thank you!
So I got all 3 , is there any order I should start ? Absolute carnage 1st then king of black and venom last ? Or what do you think ? Thanks
Read venom till you get to AC then read that omni and same with KIB. The final issue is in this omnibus though.
Thank you! I cant wait to receive my copy
I think the DM looks much better than the standard edition cover.
Seems like the US are lucky as over here in the UK practically no outlets seems to have this in stock anywhere in the country.

Page quality vs hardcovers?
So where would Venomverse be? Would that be in an Agent Venomnibus?
"Venomverse" would be right before this Omnibus in a (possible) Mike Costa collection, since it takes place during his run.
@@MastermindAXL thanks so much!
hey omar, does this need any prior reading or can be a standalone read?
Not really. Maybe Spidey 300
Should I read this before I get the king in black omnibus
I want to know this too
If you're going to read both this and the King in Black omni, you want to read this one first, since King in Black is the dramatic finale to this run collected here.
@@JoeLovesComics thanks
Woot can’t wait to get this.
I hope it goes for a good discount.
The only difference between this and king in black is the tie ins. Plus,this is more in order than king in black so I'm cool with this😎
Hi guys, what should I buy if I already have the 3 ohc? I dont really want the king in black omni if it has a lot of fluff in it...
Is this the full run?
Yes.
My copy doesn't have an eye like the one on the video. It's almost flat spine... Anyone has the same binding issue?
Is this like Venomnibus 4?
More like 6.
Pretty killer omar
Let’s get a Venomnibus Vol 4!
Just got my copy, a lot pages has yellowish stain on it and some more matte than others have a slight fade to it. Anyone else copies like this?
Anyone have this omnibus? Im getting the comics seperatly and would like to know the order of the read through for this omnibus
