Do what feels right to you!Ĭomic Book Herald is reader-supported. In other cases, it’s purely just cool to have. So again, in some cases the omnibus saves you both time and money. I was able to get 4 trade paperbacks and all 28 issues for well under $40. For example, the Alias hardcover Omnibus will run you around $120. 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. 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.

On the other hand, it makes them rare and collectible. This means they occasionally sell for exorbitant values on Amazon and other online retailers. Many omnibuses are sold out and not being reprinted.

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!Ī quick note about the nearly 80 Marvel Omnibus collections before the list begins. Within this post you’ll find a chronological guide to every single Omnibus Marvel Comics has ever released. These enormous collections can often be hard to find, and more damningly, are rarely listed in chronological order. 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. 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. The Omnibus is undoubtedly the holy grail of comic book collected editions.
