Not to mention that back when all those Silver Age ominbuses were released there wasn't an Epic line also looking to reprint Masterworked material. That could be a factor if indeed they are choosing to not release an omnibus of Masterworked material for this movie. I don't think they'd put off an omnibus for a measly softcover, especially when omnibuses of this type are typically reserved as movie tie-ins.I stand by what I said before. Almost twenty movies and not a single missed opportunity. I don't see them starting now.

It would certainly be an unpleasant surprise if they did break that streak, but... * Technically they've already missed that opportunity. If it's a movie tie-in, it doesn't come out 2+ months AFTER the movie. The Busiek Iron Man omnibus was not a tie-in to Iron Man 3. * The other Marvel films for spring/summer 2014 already have had their classic omnibuses announced, and are scheduled to come out a month before hand. * All three Marvel spring/summer 2014 have had one omnibus released tying-in to them. In the past they've also typically released multiple omnibuses for each movie. They're breaking that "streak", so why couldn't the "we get an omnibus reprinting Masterworks each time a movie is released" streak be broken as well? I mean, we got GA Masterworks volumes every year since 2004, but that didn't mean we got one in 2013.
