Yes! I actually found a copy of the only story I remember reading in Omni just a couple weeks ago. I was a subscriber in the 80s as a (probably too young) kid. Ah, the days of lax parental oversight....
Back in the 90s Omni had a story about cryopreservation that activated the existential fear all young kids inevitably experience once they realize we all check out one day. But it was also the magazine that awoke the non-believer in me too. I loved my stack of issues back then. Really scrambled my brain in the best possible ways.
