Great! I hope they do a war of the realms omnibus also, including tie ins.
Of course, I'm just trying to have hope in something. I would prefer that it was in the right place, but if they put it in a last volume, at least it's something. But I don't have a lot of hope

The "Thor: Love & Thunder" movie is coming out in Nov. 2021 and I would assume Marvel wants a Jason Aaron Thor Omnibus with Lady Thor to be available at that time (or a bit before). Also, I would think Marvel would want to close-up the OHC line of Aaron's Thor run and have that done maybe a year or more before the eventual Omnibus (to prevent buyer fatigue and get people to double-dip).
As other people mentioned, leaving out Unworthy Thor in OHC form probably is a strategy to get people buying the Omnibus (either leave out content or have enough buffer time between OHC and Omnibus releases)?
I understand when they add extra content to omnibus, like scripts or interviews, but I hate that they are mistreating ohc versions like this. For example the amazing spider-man: Worlwide OHCs left behind some issues between the last OHC and the red goblin, and the same is happening with Thor.
Unworthy Thor is important for the story, as it solves the mistery of Thor's unworthiness and introduces the ultimate Thor's hammer into the story, which is important for some of Jane Thor's stories.
In the end it's a mistreated line, when it should be an option for collectors that don't like TPB and don't want to wait for omnibuses.
In my case I prefer OHCs because of the weight and the shorter time it takes to get released, but these problems are annoying me a lot

Just wanted to say that it's pretty amazing that we're getting both Byrne's AND Slott's She-Hulk in Omnibus.
I honestly never thought it possible!
Amazing Spiderman (2015) (Vol 4) has 32 issues and then it was renumbered as #789, but in OHC they published
Amazing Spiderman Worlwide Vol 3 (#20-28, annual)
Amazing Spiderman: red goblin (#794-801)
They skiped the secret empire storyline, that was focused on the superior octopus, and some more issues about the consequences of secret empire for Peter. 9 issues in total.
EDIT: in TPB the missing issues are the 7tth and venom Inc.

Thanks for this! I am miffed with Marvel about this as well. I prefer they double-dip like they did with they did with spiderverse ohc rather than orphaning the issues. Hope they rectify this. This is one of the reason I put off buying OHCs until I know they actually commit to a complete line.
I also prefer double dipping some issues like spider verse.
The thing is that for me these ohc are the perfect format. They are not too heavy, they have enough issues (the premiere hardcovers with 4 issues or 6 issues had a bad binding), but of course they don't publish most things in this format and sometimes they abandon lines, like it looks has happened with black panther, spider-gwen and amazing spiderman
I'm on my phone, so I won't post individual links (all can be found here:

), but some new additions on Hachette.20191111_085805.jpg
Very excited to see Spider-girl v3

Happy to see the Incredible Herc Complete Collection continue! I always get nervous they are going to give-up before they finish a series.

Definitely in for more Conan. I'm not familiar with the Solomon Kane material but it looks interesting. Adventures in to Fear looks interesting as well. I remember the title but never read it.
