Please do more of these with other popular characters, this was so helpful

[@dexter44215]

or even a DC Superman, Batman or a Marvel Fantastic Four book, I think it would be interesting.

[@EarthsGeomancer]

The early Venom, Spiderman, and Carnage stuff is the best.

[@heartlesslucas7781]

This was really helpful and informative for me because I'm typically a Manga reader and I just recently started to become interested in American comics. I'm now subscribed to you for sure.

[@GemMintCollectibles]

thanks!

[@jettruth]

What a coincidence. I have 5 omnibuses arriving today including Spider-Man vs Venom.

[@BladePocok]

What are the remaining 4 ?

[@jettruth]

BladePocok Thor by Walter Simonson World War Hulk Punisher Max Vol 1& 2

[@giuseppepapaleo3030]

five? how many fucing money do the people have in america?

[@Klinpo1]

@@giuseppepapaleo3030 I feel you bro, it's crazy. Just three omnibuses are worth more than the minimum wage in my country (Colombia). Let that sink in...

[@WinterOrb]

Another day, another video that get's me to go and order more omnibus. Keep up the great content, Gem

[@RandBCinema]

Thank you Gem! I hope you continue this and make it a series!

[@matthewlee9879]

Hey gem,I'm a big of venom and those omnibus collection is freaking awesome.i enjoyed and appreciated this video

[@blueg8731]

Man, what I like about this channel is the constant quality of your videos. You know what you're talking about and it's appreciated a lot. There. I said it.

[@eitangeras9434]

What an amazing video!!! Thank you so much for covering Venom so thoroughly. You rock!

[@MrStratos999]

I've been waiting for this one for so long! Thank you so much.

[@robl6933]

Great info! I was collecting comics during the 80s. Seeing this makes me want an Omnibus for Spectacular Spider-Man and for Web of Spider-Man. I miss those comics.

[@shazam2323]

Yeah definitely need more of these, this one came especially in handy with vol 3 venomnibus comin out

[@zs1962]

Great video! I'm with you. The OG 90's Venom is without a doubt my favorite! I love the artwork during that time and the stories were just so much fun. He had so many fantastic crossovers too. One of my all-time favorites that I'd sit and read over and over again was The Spirits of Venom mini series. Man that cover with him holding Ghost Rider's head wrapped up in his own chains was crazy. There were some fun stories with him after the 90's, but it wasn't until Cates' run that I'd say lived up to the origin days. The Venom and Absolute Carnage runs by Cates are a must have of any symbiote fan. Best modern era symbiote story for sure. It gets a bit too convoluted with the side stories that mostly seem to serve as a way to make more money, but the Miles Morales off shoot was a win.

[@josephcitelli9357]

Thanks gem for another informative video. Always wanted to know where to start reading Venom. Would love to see more videos like this.

[@ChestCrystal]

Super excited to see the new Venom movie. Awesome book and collection.

[@pietrot90]

Thank you, this video was very informative, now I can start reading Venom!

[@mike6526]

Great breakdown on starting points and story!! Great vid Gem!!

[@CamsCorner_]

Dude you really know your stuff! Just finished maximum carnage (my first comic). Can’t wait to read more!

[@TheComicBookReport]

This was literally a question I asked myself this week! Thanks for a great video! 💪

[@ashleyn1979]

Oh God you read my mind!! What a vid to drop !!

[@kalkella8822]

Great video man, I'm just starting to get back into comics so videos like this are a big help. I thinks its a good way to grow your channel as well.

[@virginiaaguirre2078]

Most Definitely love the 90’s Venom! He’s by far my favorite Character!!!

[@JWEntertainment77]

You can never go wrong with Venom! Thanks Gem for the video!

[@greg-xd7ov]

Loved this video, fell in love with the character and read everything from Costa until present, but i think the Agent Venom stuff needs to be read.

[@DiscoveryBayComics]

This was fantastic. Great Job 👏👍

[@daymeinvanblocken3407]

Thanks for the advice, Gem Mint.

[@chrisbrussell2571]

Love this idea for a video. Would love to see more like this for different people because I’m more of a DC guy so I never know where to jump into marvel comics

[@fbravo1732]

Excellent video!!! Please more of these!!!

[@BladePocok]

Nice, thank you Gem!

[@DeyaViews]

This was definitely very helpful for me! I now plan to get the first TPB with Venom, the first TPB with Carnage, and then Venom Vol. 4 by Donny Cates. If I end up liking it all enough, I may get the Venomnibuses in the future. :)

[@trevormcguire6984]

I started with Remender's run and continued into Cullen Bunn. Then I skipped everything until Donny Cates run. Might need to backtrack and scoop a couple trades. Thanks for the tip bro!

[@todd201]

I loved the closeup of the back side of Omni with the voice over... do that more often... you are killing the game with content....

[@jeanmalo7173]

I'm halfway through Birth of Venom and I really like it, easy read and I'm really impressed on the quality of the images compared to the old newspaper style paper ones I used to read in the late 60's early 70's...I'd appreciate any suggestions on which TPB to get next....stay minty!

[@AR_Comics]

Great work as always keep it up

[@adamstarks6514]

Another fantastic video!

[@xxStorm613xx]

Great video Gem! We can never have enough Venom content haha.

[@LuizVillela]

Great idea Gem!!! Please make more of these (specially x-men and Avengers)

[@jeshuaperez4541]

Hi I just want to say thank you for this amazing video

[@maxkernfeld7928]

Right on Time, Gem 💎!

[@dylangraham1377]

Yes love it definitely do more of these

[@Briar27]

Awesome! This is the kind of info that really helps people like me who got into the game late with comics. What online vendors would you recommend for the Omni books? There's no local Comic shop nearby, and Not sure what book stores might have them locally either.

[@charlespatrick3101]

Great video! I love, and have the Spider-Man vs. Venom omnibus. 90's Spidey, Venom, and Carnage is where it's at! I'm currently on the Donny Cates run, but I'll pick up Remender's run some other time. I'm more about Eddie and Venom, than Flash and Venom.

[@Bay6Print]

Short and strong content! Keep ‘m coming Gem! Btw could these trades be collected in an Venomnibus vol 3?

[@josephinecallofduty]

I just watched Venom a couple of days ago and I love it. But, dunno where to start reading. Thank you for creating this video!

[@josephinecallofduty]

But the price of comic is quite expensive so it’s impossible for me to buy all of that.

[@antispiralking9417]

@@josephinecallofduty noob

[@aricschollenberger8136]

Love the 90s stuff like you man...have all the omnibuses but unfortunately have a manufacturing problem with my spiderman vs venom where my spine folds upward into my eye. Cant do anything to fix it and know the more I read it that it's just going to get worse. Thanks for the video though had no idea about the space knight thing. I'm big into the cosmic stuff and will have to check that out now.

[@scyIex]

TYSM, i love venom so much but start reading comics is so confusing, this is so much helpful

[@john-oh9cr]

in the beginning venom books had the gloss paper and hard covers . I loved them .

[@xxchurch808xx]

In the middle of my chronological Venom readings. I am currently on his first Thunderbolts run as Mac Gargan. But can't wait for the Absolute Carnage trades to come out next year!

[@MrColllie]

Helpful video, I've actually only read the remender line of venom and I really enjoyed it but i wouldn't mind getting those big omnibus books.

[@SuperpowerReview]

great video buddy. I am one of the peeps from the Venom fan base.

[@vishansilva8546]

This is actually fire 🔥

[@sebastianandersson7708]

Thanks for the video man, I have lost track of all the modern iterations of venom and was looking for a good guide. Allready own the first 2 classic 90s omnibus as well as so, so many of the roiginals old comics... need some new material

[@Ersymondequartiere312]

Amazing video!

[@theomegaman3489]

Great video Gem ! Hope Sony will make Venom 2 sooner

[@chrisclarke9306]

Thanks GM that was very helpful. #stayvenomous

Definitely gonna pick up those omnis soon

Dope to see entire evolution of the character

Very helpful tutorial 👍

[@iamthomasjudge]

Dude, you need to check out the 18 issue Daniel Way run, it's amazing!!

[@hannahgreen9998]

As someone who is nervous to talk to people in comic shops, GOD BLESS YOU

[@GemMintCollectibles]

Don’t be nervous, that’s their job! Feel free to ask questions here if you have. Will be happy to answer if I see them.

[@ashleyn1979]

Btw thanks for including mention of the trades. Im planning on getting the Omnis but who knows maybe Ill get the trades after that

[@GemMintCollectibles]

Ashley I definitely didn’t want it to just be Omnibus

[@turtleanton6539]

great video my man

[@HunterHendricksonMusic]

Wow! Just what I was looking for on my absolute favorite comic character growing up, and now looking to jump back in a bit. Thanks, great job. Where would you recommend buying these? I have quite a few original single issues in perfect shape from lethal protector on. What’s your thoughts?

[@askyla623]

Awesome choice! Those omnibi are sick. Y'all need to catch up and read Absolute Carnage ASAP. Loving those reviews too btw

Reading the Cates run now...plan to go back and read the originals as have not looked at that stuff since I read it upon release.

[@LuisOrtiz-tt1uf]

Awesome Venom book bro

Thanks this is actually something I'm looking to do now start to finish. Maybe not all good info.

Make sure you pick up the Daniel Way complete collection also, really cool artwork.

[@GemMintCollectibles]

added to the wishlist.,..i thought i had it.

[@endc3043]

That first omnibus spiderman vs venom omnibus volume 1 is been difficult to buy because no store has it and when I find it, sellers are asking way over my price range.. but its a must have.. just have to be patient and wait for the moment when it's lower price. Question is when? Lol..

[@davyjones1156]

90's it def the place to start... imma pick up Donny Cates runn.he definitely earning his spot as one of the best imo

[@coldtn4389]

Great video

[@brentlevanen2252]

I was worried about that Costa run not being the greatest. I remember seeing the marvel preview books and seeing all those books being solicited for a year and it just didn’t really catch me and I couldn’t get into the art. I might skip it then, thanks Gem 💎

[@TheYoungWolfI]

The X-Men vid was awesome. This is great. Keep it up. Did you do a Spider-Man?

[@GemMintCollectibles]

not yet

[@mariososa5808]

Wolverine / X-men next .I p/u a few (a lot) of Omnis going through the Uncanny X-Men ..Claremont Omnis right now .

[@JayCee51]

I’ve been trying to find that Rick Remender Complete Collection Vol. 2 and can’t find it. Or if I finally do, people want a stupid price for it.

[@GemMintCollectibles]

not sure if its out of print or not.

Great video currently shopping for venom material as a recap before absolute carnage... do you not have the daniel way stuff?

[@GemMintCollectibles]

i dont...i need to check it out

Hey Gem! I just starting reading Cates' Venom, and I was wondering what you would suggest for a reading order. I'm 6 issues through right now. I tried searching for it, but I haven't had much luck.

I gotta get back into this guy venom

[@neptonic7590]

Can we get an updated version that covers Venomnibus vol 3 and the Mac Gargan issues that came before Agent Venom?

[@hellothere_24]

Should I get Maximum Carnage paperback instead of Carnage Classic? Paperbacks that I plan to get are: Birth of Venom Maximum Carnage Lethal Protector Venom Epic Collection: Symbiosis

[@NewPortHuffer]

I’d love to have the Vemomnbus but they’re super expensive so is getting the birth of venom,carnage classic,and lethal protector paperbacks a good starting point?

[@BarrelDive]

I really want to start reading venom but as someone who lives in the UK, I can’t get ahold of the Spider-Man Vs Venom Omnibus, only the Birth of Venom. Unfortunately that’s missing a huge chunk compared to Spider-Man vs Venom. Any suggestions?

[@douglassmith9445]

Gem you need to grab the Venom Daniel Way Ultimate Collection! Besides lethal protector and Venoms first appearances ever, this is what i grew up on as a kid. I never hear you talk about Daniel Way.

[@GemMintCollectibles]

yea must have missed his run...ill scoop it up

[@douglassmith9445]

@@GemMintCollectibles I'd recommend checking out his other two collected editions as well. I just finished his complete edition of ghost rider and loved it. Still need to check out his Wolverine but I'm sure it's great.

I like it from the started .. talking secret wars 8 I know venom comes way later but as Spiderman turns ...it was a slow burn...That’s just me though

Greetings! I would like to ask where to get such a cool venomnibus and whether you sell it!

Daniel way’s venom is pretty unpopular but it’s still one of my favs.
