Venom #1

(W) Charles Soule (A) Tommaso Bianchi

THEY ARE VENOM!

Eddie Brock and Venom are reunited — and it feels so good! After years apart, once again THEY ARE VENOM, and Eddie is not going to let this opportunity go to waste. He is determined to be the ultimate host for the symbiote and be the hero he knows he can be… and he’s not going to let any other super heroes say otherwise! Writer Charles Soule (DAREDEVIL, STAR WARS) and artist Tommaso Bianchi (DAREDEVIL/PUNISHER: THE DEVIL’S TRIGGER, THUNDERBOLTS) bond together to bring us this story of two becoming one!

The Twilight Zone #10

(W) Charles Soule, Rosemary Soule (A) Sean Peacock

Listen closely… but don’t trust all that you hear, or you may fall victim to the same fate as our latest protagonists.

Entering a fraternity basement is risky business on the best of days, but when our two young heroines venture down on a dare, they discover more than the remnants of past hazing rituals. They find a labyrinthine Cold War bunker… and it’s not empty. Whispered secrets and paranoia of a bygone age live on in this forgotten place. Would you set them free? Or trap them forever… in the Twilight Zone?

Written by Charles Soule (Daredevil, Eight Billion Genies, Lucky Devils) and Rosemary Soule (Star Wars) with art by Sean Peacock (Blood Honey, Romeo & Juliet & Godzilla).

Hela and Knull’s War Brings about the Long-Teased Venomworld in the Queen in Black Finale!

Posted on by

Queen in Black, the new crossover event spinning directly out of Al Ewing and Carlos Gómez’s run of Venom, begins on July 22. Spanning a five-issue series by Ewing and Iban Coello, alongside essential tie-in limited series and issues, the saga follows Marvel’s heroes as they fight to safeguard Earth from an epic cosmic collision between Knull and Hela. Today, Marvel officially unveils the covers and information for the event’s final chapters, arriving this September. 

Hela has seized Knull’s throne and now commands a legion of deadly symbiotes as the QUEEN IN BLACK! Meanwhile, Knull has conquered the Lightforce Dimension, claiming terrifying new power for himself as the GOD OF LIGHT! Two of the most powerful evils in the galaxy are at war, and Earth is the final prize!

The newly revealed issues spotlight the long awaited emergence of Venomworld in Queen in Black #4-5, a startling development teased since the early days of Ewing’s mind-bending run. As Earth is consumed by symbiotes, current Venom host Mary Jane Watson is forced to make a desperate choice, one that will shape both the fate of the Marvel Universe and her future as a symbiote hero in Venom #262. Meanwhile, Eddie Brock faces his own pivotal decision that redefines his role as a symbiote host in Queen in Black: Venom Unchained #3. And both new Defenders squads unite for the climactic finale in Queen in Black: Defenders of Light and Dark #4, and Marvel’s master thief joins the battle to pull off the galaxy’s greatest heist in Black Cat #14.
