I've actually read a lot of Venom's early comic books, and by my count their #150 would be Venom Volume 3 #7 also. If you don't trust my math, it's confirmed in an article I saw to be #7 anyway.

Here's the math for anyone interested: From '93 to '98, there were 61 Venom Comics (including the Venom Agenda one-shot, it's part of the story). Then came the official Venom Volume 1 of 18 issues. Volume 2 had 47 issues technically. Space Knight had 13. That's 139 issues total. Add another 4 for either Venom vs. Carnage or Sinister Spider-Man, I'm not sure which but they must have used one of them, because that brings the total to 143. Plus 7 of Volume 3 is 150.

If anyone looked at the Venom Comic Books page and was wondering why the other things there weren't counted: Dark Origin was just a re-telling of his origin, and may be non-canon for various reasons. The Anti-Venom series was about a different symbiote. Spider-Island took place in a different universe. Hulk/Rune vs. Venom did not tie into any of Venom's stories. The Super Special was part 3 of a Clone Saga event. The #-1 chronologically took place years prior to the Klyntar ever encountering Spider-Man. Finally, Birth of Venom was a TPB.
